That game is just so insanely gorgeous

You’ve been more dedicated to this than anything I’ve ever attempted in my life…

I think it’s pretty obvious you’re not going to forget at this point

What’s there to understand?

Starting off way too obtuse and disconnected from reality to have a conversation. Later.

I have used others and to me nothing else has the right blend of stability, performance, good defaults, and ability to customize. Boost is best on android.

I think it’s less about ux and more about being confused. People aren’t faking being confused. I’m pretty tech savvy but had to do a double take. Still don’t fully understand the nuances of federation after over a year and a half. I don’t really need to understand all of it though.

I don’t really want them here, but I’d rather them be here than on reddit. Reddit is more toxic than this place and a lot of that comes top down. At least here people can spin off an instance the minute admins/mods act like dicks. There, the culture just gets worse and festers and it contributes to toxicity in the world outside itself. Imagine if the r/theDonald pricks have been ostracized and started their own instance which most instances defederated with quickly.

Yes and you couldn’t possibly be wrong about what a nazi is in a world where that term is thrown around more every day.

Yeah, see the problem, echoed in nearly every philosophy in human history, is that you shouldn’t enact vengeance (preventative or otherwise) because you might be wrong. It’s the same reason the death penalty is immoral.

As much as I’d like to see some of these fucks at the end of a rope, that doesn’t mean I will be making any blanket statements which assume I always know who the “bad” guys are.

There is a pretty big flaw in this argument. Tolerance does not mean “do not murder”. We do not tolerate plenty of people that we don’t kill.

I think that dehumanizing other humans is something to be on the watch for. It doesn’t make you a Nazi to wonder if you’re also morally unsound

Then get started. You first.

I was referring to the reaction to the top level comment. A bunch of people getting pissed as though if you say murder is wrong then you are defending Nazis. This is just mental laziness.

Yes of course, just about anyone would agree.

Sidenote: my comment is also being downvoted. People just can’t handle the smallest amount of nuance…

If that’s true, the comment being downvoted like this is… interested. On Lemmy, you’re either a Nazi killer or lover, which is interesting since 99.999999% of people here have never killed anyone, let alone a Nazi. We can say fuck Nazis but also say that murder is wrong.

I fail to see how it matters that a word commonly known as “german” is not directly German but instead is one step removed.

They could have just as easily pulled another easy-to-grok word from German and slightly changed the spelling.

Those arguing about this technicality here are missing the point.

doesn’t make it a more German. So is iceberg.

There is absolutely no way in which this even matters a slight bit. In-fucking-sufferable and entirely self unaware.

And yet I always knew that it came from german and when I looked up the etymology that was confirmed correct. I honestly have no idea why people want to have a “conversation” like this

Not only is the etymology on my side, search engines also easily find several articles saying the company Uber got their name from a German word.

I think you’re splitting hairs and it’s not helpful. I have only ever known “Uber” as a German word and you saying it isn’t one won’t change my or others’ experience of it as such.

Not only is the etymology on my side, search engines also easily find several articles saying the company Uber got their name from a German word.

…I don’t know what point you’re making. The word came from german, and the changing of the letter only goes to my point. The word was easily simplified to be used outside of German.
