I understand much of the technology we use today isn't magic, but it may as well be with how much I understand about how it works.

I don't think you quite grasp what Arthur C Clarke was going for with this one.

If I were wrong, you'd be able to convince me that I'm wrong. We can keep going until one of us accepts that we didn't have an accurate understanding of reality.

I had an ex like you.

“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Arthur C Clarke.

I don't get it.

Yeah, this basically sums up my experience as well. There's a real "I'm right, you're wrong, and we're going to keep at this until you agree with me" approach that some people have.

You come across as a very bitter person, to be honest.

She's the fast food of pop music.

There's a good reason fast food is so popular.

No, she's really not that talented, she's famous because her dad was rich.

You couldn't make this shit up.

What, exactly, is your point?

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 year ago

She could be giving a large chunk of money to charity and still be worth that, for all you know.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemmy.ml -3 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Do you know for sure she doesn't?

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (11 children)

She's an extremely talented singer and songwriter, that's how.
