I’ve been reading for over 30 years. I’ve tried and failed more times than I can count on one hand to read Dune, it’s dry as a bone.

it’s almost like all the chuds and bigots are emboldened right now, like they just won some kind of major victory. wonder what that could have been.

ITT awful fucking reasons for “smartphone good”. Fuck smartphones.

being explained doesn’t make it good. i don’t hate it because i’m too stupid to get it, i hate it because it’s dumb and it sucks.

the fact that this exchange is going down on lemmy of all places is fucking hilarious, as if this place isn’t twice the shithole mastodon is

some years ago the language wasn’t quite standardized yet and they taught us all that the box with all the components inside is called the CPU

oh look another militant atheist getting indignant because a fun thing that’s popular with a lot of people isn’t 100% fact-based and science-backed. boofuckinhoo, why not pull the stick out of your ass and try to be less of a grouchy pedantic troglodyte?
