I’ve added my favorite YouTube channels in the comments below. (Feel free to check them out!) But, my preferences aside, what YouTube channel(s) do you want more people to see?
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
People keep talking about “Federalizing the National Guard” and now you’ve got other States pledging their NG to Texas in defiance of the Supreme Court (see image)....
I have an eight-year-old laptop that needs replacing and I’m paralyzed. What are the most reliable ones now? Do I need a desktop for CAD? Pros and cons of operating systems (and where do I find them?) Browsers ditto? Where do I find answers that aren’t just product marketing?
You mentioned CAD, I had a look at the System Requirements for AutoCAD and most of this
Keep in mind that AutoCAD is only 2D and many of the core controls are different from what you’d normally find due to Autodesk trying to cater to people who started using it in the 90’s. AutoCAD’s requirements are going to be different from modern packages like NX or Solidworks
A notice that couldn’t be enforced. They could have told Kakao to file their DCMA through GitHub like they’re supposed to do. If the DCMA is filed outside that it’s not enforceable
Get rid of that and you can bring people in off the street.
Yeah, you can’t do that with engineering. Especially when you’re building models to support multiple product lines and have physical testing you have to match to
Since a lot of women have started to call their female friends “girlfriends”, I have to wonder how women with actual girlfriends have been dealing with this lol
Just, I don’t understand how you can throw your lot in with neonazis, and the KKK, and think you’re voting for the right people. The 20 or so Tankies we have in this country voted for Biden, sure, but they weren’t happy about it. Donald Trump got a fucking cult
This paragraph completely invalidated everything you said, because it’s painfully clear yhat you have no idea what you’re talking about and built a strawman in your head.
Go read my comment again: where the fuck did I ever say I voted for Republicans? I’ll tell you: fucking nowhere.
Do I hate Beto O’Rourke? Yes, but I also don’t live in Texas where he ran for governor. I vote pretty much straight-ticket in favor of Democrats even when they have terrible candidates like Hillary Clinton.
I recommend you sit down and shut up until you learn how to actually read/listen to people’s arguments. Then you won’t go off the rails on a strawman and make yourself look like a fool.
I’ve exhausted things I can sleep to on Netflix, and it’s literally impossible to sleep to things on Prime (so I barely watch anything there; it’s not worth falling asleep to something I like, since I might be punished for it), so I’ve started putting on YouTube in the evenings since it won’t wake me with silence at...
No, the “well-regulated militia” actually referred to a desire to have all able-bodied men of military age to commonly have most of the skills needed to fight in a war in case of a draft, such as marksmanship and survival skills, as well as already owning most of the necessary equipment.
What’s important to note is that the US had a very small standing military for most of its history. It relied on being able to conscript a large number of recruits whenever a war started, and sent them home whenever the war was over. This requires a lot of the citizenry to already know most of the skills they’d need to raise an army quickly.
A “well regulated militia” had a different meaning back then. Also, there’s a comma in the middle of the amendment that means the first phrase is only a clarification. The second clause stands on its own.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a new law on Wednesday that aims to stop other states from prosecuting doctors and pharmacists who mail abortion pills to patients in places where the procedure is banned. California already has a law protecting doctors who provide abortions from out-of-state judgments.
Overall I like Lemmy, but there’s also a lot of doomers on here that do everything they can to make everyone feel miserable. I had to trim out a lot of communities that they tend to infest, so now I’m not getting as much interaction and have moved some of my traffic back to Reddit to have enough things to browse
Any good YouTube recommendations? (lemmy.zip)

Where can a Boomer catch up on current computer/software technology?

What's some amazing technology they have in Japan that's very normal to them but would blow our minds here in the US and western world?

If someone won $500,000,000 in the lottery, what would be the most effective way to spend it to change the political situation in America?...
Lesbians of lemmy, how do you introduce your SO to other people without getting them confused for just a friend?
Since a lot of women have started to call their female friends “girlfriends”, I have to wonder how women with actual girlfriends have been dealing with this lol
Non-religious Republicans of Lemmy, how do you reconcile your non-religious convictions with a party that bases a lot of its policies on religion?
E.g. abortion rights, anti-LGBTQ, contempt for atheism, Christian nationalism, etc.

What popular quote are you tired of hearing?
Bonus points if it’s usually misused/misunderstood by the people who say it
Leave Texas and other Draconian states and risk getting pulled over for driving pregnant? Nope, just have the pills mailed from California. (www.cbsnews.com)

What do you think about Lemmy, so far?
I happen to like it very much.
