In much the same way roadkill ages better than a roadside piss bottle

Doesn't hurt that Dessalines got banned from reddit for posting Uyghur genocide apologetics. He wanted a safe space where that's cool.

The Android Open Source Project and all of its resources wouldn't go anywhere, it would just lose its biggest parasite.

Don't be sanctimonious about your choice in cell phone, it's weird. Also, I'm typing this from a phone that has a headphone jack and a microSD slot

You'll cowards don't even murder sapient AIs

The live-action Hobbit movies are the only movies that have a worse budget-to-quality ratio than Star Wars Episode II

No, you're an asshole for whining

Sega had a chance to hold on to enough market dominance to remain as the third console player even after this, but then their fate was sealed at the very instant they decided to put a CD-ROM drive in the Dreamcast instead of a DVD drive.

Finally, hardware capable of running KDE with minimal stuttering

I've already run into multiple people on Lemmy who do what I call the Reddit Special:

  1. See an opinion you don't like
  2. Intentionally misinterpret the point to mean something else and attack that
  3. Support your opinion by arguing backwards from your conclusion
  4. Ignore all counterarguments when possible, return to step 2 when not
  5. Try to "win" with pithy mic-drop bon mots at the end of your comment
  6. Mask upset feelings by trotting out overly slangy 2am Chili style dismissals

For example a conversation I have actually had more than once on Reddit:

Person 1 - "I hate the designated hitter in baseball, it was more fun before, without it"
Person 2 - "Why are you in love with the old days so much? Do you want segregation back too?"
Person 1 - "Are you crazy? I just like it when pitchers bat"
Person 2 - "Lol. Clearly you have issues with being called out on your bigotry"
Person 1 - "You're not listening, I said I like baseball better when pitchers bat"
Persot 2 - "lmaoooo I don't listen to racists"

I agree, it is in line with their image, their image being "phony progressive platitudes on top of bog-standard corpro shit". It's pretty rich for B&J to be sanctimonious about stolen land when they also do a shitload of business in Russia, which is currently attempting to steal even more land and is murdering every Ukrainian civilan they possibly can in the process. They sued their own parent company for allowing a licensee to sell B&J ice cream in the West Bank—not a word now. The fact that Ben has donated over a million dollars to a political action group that sought to stop the U.S. from arming Ukraine is technically a coincidence considering he no longer works there, but their public stance is just as bad. Wouldn't be surprised if they're also super into Greenpeace and Tienanmen Square Truthing. Disingenous garbage like what this corporation peddles is why the American left has such a reputation problem.
