  • Honestly think finally found common ground, and I appreciate the thought out response here. This is the sort of discussion and comment I want to see more of here on Lemmy, thought out good discussion instead of “He’s literally hitler”. That’s really the point I was trying to make, I don’t care about Bill Gates, what I am tired of is everyone demonizing everyone else in the comments and us devolving into reddit comment sections. We’ve been better than Reddit in our comments until recently.










  • It’s just every thread man, every one of them devolves into it and I’m so tired. It’s quite literally like the Good Place where even the act of buying a tomato will get people raging in the comments about how apparently you support climate change, slavery, and every other bad thing involved in the growing of it. Or, hear me out, I just bought a tomato. I’m just so tired of it here



  • God you hit the nail on the head, and why I’m getting very annoyed here on Lemmy. People refuse to have nuanced takes and just comment incessantly about how people are evil and doing anything makes you a bad person. Turns out people are nuance, and we can judge them as such. You can say he did some terrible things to make Microsoft successful while also saying he has done some very good things with his fortune. It is not black and white.


  • Setting aside all the consumerism comments I’m sure my fellow Lemmy users will fill us in about - you don’t want any black Friday deals. I worked electronics retail for almost a decade and saw it.

    Black Friday “deals” aren’t percentages off products you want. For the most part they are shittier models with a letter different from their normal model number. These special black Friday models are made with parts that failed qa or just all around are cheaper. The companies don’t just magically take 20% off, they plan for it.

    That $100 dollar 48" flat screen? Yeah it’s worth $100. Hope it was worth giving up time in your holidays to buy, because there’s a decent chance you’ll be returning it when it breaks.

    (Tip for those buying tvs. Super bowl is the best time of year to buy a TV. They’re the actual good models and it’s the best sales of the year. Stores are in the post holiday slump and eager to move them.)





  • Not offended. Annoyed that on every thread here it devol es into politics and becomes a depressing place. I know the world is depressing and the everything is politics GM but goddamn I found this comic sweet, I followed xkcd through the cancer years, and someone saying “must be nice to have money” really feels disrespectful to them. Yeah, it probably did help, and yeah, our country sucks, but can we just have a nice comic for once that celebrates them making it through cancer? Why does every comment section on Lemmy have to have someone saying “Hey look! The system is fucked!”. I know it is! That’s why I was here trying to enjoy something for a few seconds!
