Man, this one aged like milk

Male bedbugs have a knife-like penis. To have sex, they stab the females in the thorax with it because the females don’t have genitalia. The semen is then injected directly into the female’s main body cavity for insemination

mnemonicmonkeys, (edited ) to linux in best foss cad software?

Honestly? Not much. FreeCAD is an abomination, so I’m keeping one of my computers on Windows so that I can still use Fusion360

mnemonicmonkeys, to piracy in Mangadex and Batoto extensions have been removed due complaints from copyright holders

Heads up, as of last night you can’t search MangaDex via the old extension. Manga you already have favorited are still updated, but you can’t find new ones to favorite

You’ve cherry picked parts of my argument and disregarded the meat, the heart of it that carried my point.

Your entire argument was (and should) be disregarded when you immediately resort to calling me morally bankrupt by your reducto ad adsurdum argument about your wife, which I actually did address if you read properly.

The opening line was a statement, not an attack. The "you " in the second line is generic, not directed. If I’m not directing at you, why would I feel personally attacked?

If you truly believe that any reasonable person wouldn’t take that as a personal attack then you need to brush up on your English skills.

Like I suggested for, you’re stacking up to be exactly what I would expect a fan of Second Thought to be like, and that’s not a compliment. I offered you a chance to help you dig yourself out of a tankie echo chamber, but if you want to mire yourself in that then by all means go ahead.

In my eyes, suppressing knowledge, or advocating it, is morally bankrupt.

Claiming I’m advocating the suppression of knowledge is a bold claim. I’m informing you (and anyone reading this thread) about their heavily skewed view of the world as a caution. You can always choose to not take my advice.

Also, claiming people are trying to suppress you simply because they shared their opinion is rather disingenuous. I have made a single personal attack on you, I’ve only criticized the informational valye of the channel you recommended, assuming that you were simply unaware of its issues.

You shouldn’t even try to dissuade people from watching it, you should want the people around you to be better educated

It’s weird you’re using this argument when the channel in question has a video called “Alternatives to Capitalism” that is just a 15 minute rant on why capitalism is bad and spends no time actually discussing potential alternatives to capitalism.

I’m willing to entertain arguments against, I don’t claim or think to know everything. In fact, everything Im right about now I can guarantee I was wrong about before.

Given how you immediately resorted to a “reducto ad absurdum” argument makes me highly suspicious of your willingness to entertain differing arguments. In fact, it’s concerningly similar to the debate strategy of Second Thought and tankues in general.

Please keep trying to broaden your horizons, particularly to more moderate sources. You’re sounding like you’re falling into an echo chamber

There’s a difference between watching content you don’t agree with and giving views (and thereby ad revenue) to propagandists.

I don’t know about you, but I’d rather not spend my limited time alive on listening to people who are intellectually and morally bankrupt.

Dude, Second Thought is basically tankie propaganda now

Head’s up, The Escapist is essentially dead since they fired their editor-in-chief (Nick Calandra) and all of the talent (Yahtzee, Frost, JM8, Jack, etc.) quit to start a new employee-owned company with him called Second Wind

How is science and futurism with Isaac Arthur (SFIA) not getting more love?

Tbf, Isaac Arthur will sometimes propose ideas that absolutely no hope of working such as orbital loops. While I get that he’s not an engineer, videos like that tend to be a blemish on his reputation.

mnemonicmonkeys, (edited ) to asklemmy in If Trump loses in 2024, do you think he'd run in 2028?

He’s just a coked up moron.

Tbf, so was Hitler. Especially the last couple of years

mnemonicmonkeys, to asklemmy in So is the US slipping into Civil War?

You’ll find some dumb schmucks that refuse, but there’s no way the entire NG would refuse

mnemonicmonkeys, to asklemmy in So is the US slipping into Civil War?

Finland, Sweden, Germany, Belgium, etc.

The only thing is that they won’t allow you to import guns you already have. You have to buy new ones there

mnemonicmonkeys, to asklemmy in So is the US slipping into Civil War?

It absolutely is. Sgt. R Lee Ermy was a master at comedy
