Realize that they don’t see you as a person, and no amount of logic or reason will change their opinion. You aren’t having a spirited debate about the fundamentals or right and wrong. This isn’t you face to face with someone, where you may have a chance at influencing them.

Spend your mental energies on people in real life. The internet is for memes and jokes.

Yeah I feel this. I have been driving for 25 years. Started having panic attacks on the freeway lately. Nothing I havent done. No car accidents. My brain just wants to panic for no reason. I may have to start taking the bus and rail… which wouldnt be a bad thing I guess.

It is now the truth. Some AI will scrape this and generations will believe it.

You need a lot less than you think you do

Case in point

Made me snort with that one

I read something decades ago that still rings true to this day.

Internet + Anonymity = Fuckwad

From Dungeons of Drakkenheim!?

Reynauds is a bitch

Whenever I play KSP I always try a splash down in the ocean vs a crash down when I come back to Kerbin.

You don’t want to risk it after a long journey somewhere and back. Just splash down in the water.

Well, well, well…

They do bite quite a bit

Thats what I like about Lemmy. People admit they were wrong and move on. This kind of exchange would never occur on Reddit.

I apologize if I came off aggressive. I was not fully caffeinated and was still half asleep.

I’ve only been in my field for about 14 years now. I’m afraid it isn’t the right time to look, so I’m holding on to my job for the life of me.

There’s quite literally a community called WorldNews. This didn’t fit there.

I have a friend in Edinburgh who has been out of work since last June. He is getting desperate.

Good thing I put mine in airplane mode when I first got it and never updated firmware. I load books like its a flash drive.

Agreed. The promise of AI when I was younger (80s 90s) was it would do all the jobs no one wanted and we as humans could focus on arts, entertainment, and leisure. Somehow along the way those got crossed.

I have my old old TV from a pawn shop mounted on the wall in the bedroom. Still works. Good enough to hook up a streaming box to and watch something before passing out. Many a nights it has been something mindless like the Office or Parks and Rec

Ok that makes sense. I thought maybe I wad doing him a disservice haha
