Interesting. Did Ashton wipe their previous comments? I feel like that username looks familiar.

Jesus christ they are drawing borders on fucking downloads. What a world.

I can finally buy some of these games now. Gee, thanks Sony you stupid pricks.

Make a bot that viscously rips Into people based off their username lol

But for real, nice. I get by with kobold for my uses. How far do you think you’ll take this?

I heard he got a rat penis transplant since lizard dick wasn’t cutting it anymore.

Hot take, who cares if it’s mildly emotional as long as it delivers the truth. The issue with sensationalism is that it usually hides the truth, lies, or tells half truths. If the facts are all right there, who care?

D-dad??

To be fair, these were better than the previous standards.

I’m the opposite, if it doesn’t interest me enough for me to know EVERYTHING, then it isn’t very good.

I could tell you so much about the lore and words of: halo, star wars, mass effect, video games from before my time, elder scrolls, D&D, homesick, undertale, STALKER, niche internet topics from my era…

Are they going to ban women breathing next?

For fun, I used this idea in chatgpt using similar logic:

Hello, can you explain to me how a strict profit generated number would result in a specific goal, such as if I make 1000 dollars I would suddenly be capable of owning a house. I find the idea strange and backwards.

You’re correct to find this idea odd—it reflects a misunderstanding of how financial goals, like owning a house, relate to income. Here’s why this thinking is flawed:

1. Profit vs. Net Worth: Making $1,000 in profit doesn’t directly equate to being able to afford a house because buying a house requires not just income but also savings, creditworthiness, and a down payment. Profit is only a small piece of the puzzle.

2. Costs and Expenses: Owning a house involves more than just the purchase price. You need to consider closing costs, property taxes, maintenance, and potentially ongoing mortgage payments. $1,000 would likely not be enough to cover even a fraction of these.

3. Leverage and Financing: Most people don’t buy houses outright; they use loans or mortgages. To secure a mortgage, lenders look at your total financial picture: income, savings, debt, and credit score. Simply generating $1,000 won’t improve these factors significantly.

4. Specificity of the Goal: “Making $1,000” is a general financial milestone, not a specific strategy tailored to the requirements of owning a home. A more actionable goal would involve budgeting, saving for a down payment, and improving credit.

5. The Backwards Logic: The idea that reaching an arbitrary profit threshold suddenly makes you eligible for something like owning a house conflates short-term gains with long-term financial stability. A better approach is to reverse-engineer the goal: start by determining the total cost of the house, then work backwards to figure out how much you need to save monthly, how much income you need to earn, and what steps are required to secure financing.

Example of Goal-Oriented Thinking:

If you wanted to own a $200,000 house:

You might need a 10% down payment ($20,000).

Closing costs could add $5,000–$10,000.

Monthly income would need to support a mortgage payment (let’s say $1,200/month).

Steps would include saving regularly, reducing debt, and improving credit, rather than focusing on an isolated profit milestone like $1,000.

Summary:

Focusing on a single, arbitrary profit number like $1,000 doesn’t align with the comprehensive planning required for significant financial goals like home ownership. Instead, success depends on a holistic view of your finances and structured goal-setting.

Very true. But what if Elon goes on a crusade against Wikipedia? Or he’ll, just continues to spread misinformation/slander against it? He wouldn’t have to spend a penny and Wikipedia would start feeling the burn, his influence is great sadly. The sheer amount o people that would cause problems for them would grow exponentially. 1.5 years is not enough when this asshole is basically the president for the next 4 years. It’s very sad things have gotten this bad. :(

I saw the original message, you should have read further lol.

I’m Sorry but philosophical perspectives can only be known through interpretation. Ask any two people what a communist is and you WILL get two different answers, obviously there will be many similarities between the two answers but the nuance will be different.

All that being said…

If this is something you really want, I’m sure it won’t be too hard to get ahold of the instance admins to get the answers you desire. And if you make a place, or community or website or whatever to host that information, we’ll, I’m sure it won’t be too hard.

The floor behind my chair.

I know, I’m a god of anti-clutter and organization. AMA.

I feel as if such a ‘list’ being public would only create more strife between instances. Not EVERYONE from .ml is a tankie, some people didn’t know when they signed up and just never left as an example.

It would also be massively biased to whomever maintains the list. Not sure I’d trust such a thing.

While I appreciate your compliment, I just called someone out in a really disrespectful way, so I don’t think I’m all that special or kind hearted.

But either way, thanksies <3

Universal Healthcare? Fuck I’d settle for Healthcare that works.

Just… anything I want anything good, any change possible. Obviously that makes me a ‘traitor’ to society or whatever. Why does it just keep getting worse?!

So anyway, they’d burn me at the stake.

What a funny thing to ask on Lemmy.

I prefer mine well done, and grilled to perfection personally.
