That’s a good note. Although you can of course use a condom, but yeah.
I think Tupperware makes glass containers with silicon lids as well though, so again… just shape and size, really.
Like would you consider farming corn to be a different industry than farming potatoes? Some of the machines are probably different yeah, but it’s all “agriculture”, innit?
Also, it’s just about the size and shape of the machines basically and they’re in the same industries.
So is it really that different of an industry, or two sub-industries of like… plastics, in general?
Dude.
As a third-party to this conversation, I have to say that the dude writing “There is often a gap between common-use language, and the academic function of words (see “racism”). This is why I emphasized the relation of the definitions I provided to the fields of anthropology and sociology, as well as why I stated it is a use almost exclusively found, in my experiences, in academia.” seems a tad more credible than the one writing “I’m not superior just because I used a dictionary to quash the logical fallacy of your call to authority.”
I seriously think you just missed the nuance he was trying to emphasise, and you started mansplaining something he already implicitly had agreed on. Now you’re going for these rather immature “logical fallacy” arguments. Just a tip for that, btw, to up your game in that aspect. Naming fallacies to implicate that the other person is wrong is actually something called “the fallacy fallacy”, ie "because their logic contains a fallacy, the conclusion must be false. That in itself is a fallacy. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_fallacy
So yeah. You’re not wrong, but you’re also not right in correcting him in any way, and he’s not wrong to say that he is right.
I do believe he’s an English teacher. Just use your imagination a bit and think of how many of the things your English teacher told you didn’t seem to make sense, but when you actually dug into the material, you got an “aaa this is what he meant” - moment.
John Oliver sort of did it.
But it doesn’t even need a LLM.
They just used predictive text.
I literally laughed out loud. Well, not too audibly, but still. Forcibly exhaled, let’s say.
It was the late nineties and info on such matters freely flowed on the net.
As opposed to?
Well, there’s also a connection between Prometheus and Lucifer.
Prometheus brought fire. “Lucifer” means “light-bearer”.
Here’s the actor with a story that includes a bit about coming up with Boss Nass’s voice, iirc
One of the mods is an actual Russian troll. Davel@lemmy.ml
Pro-Russian mod who keeps pretending they’re not.
“If those kids could read…” meme would be fitting lol
“Low technology.”
I think of “low tech” as something that you could with some materials and knowledge do yourself out of a garage.
I would not take an improvised vaccine made in someone’s garage. Not until we were in real fucked up post-apocalyptic scenarios.
You watched the John Oliver episode, didn’t you?
Improve on the model by getting a metal bat and welding metal plugs on it.
This ain’t bad either though, just a suggestion
It’s a broad generalization
Yes, it is. And imagine doing that for any other group, dividing then into two very opposing stereotypes.

Most drug dealers are literally just regular people. Nothing to it.
How does it feel like, seeing only black and white?
In these temps anyone will understand how cold can burn.
I slept outside in -42 when I was in the army in Finland. Not a good night’s sleep, I’ll tell you that.
It’s not an appeal to common sense to make arguments and then comment on those, clear arguments as common sense.
Maybe you need to spend a bit more time studying your fallacy charts.

Address the actual arguments, instead of trying to “win” an argument by trying to point out a fallacy (which wasn’t even there.)
For less people to die and to preserve nature so it doesn’t fuck itself over, yes, it is necessary to kill.
Unfortunately our ancestors replaced a lot of apex predators. And don’t even get started on “reintroduce apex predators” as if you could introduce wolf pacts into European population centers.
Educate yourself instead of having these simplistic and childish outlooks.
I don’t copypaste, but I have argued the same thing on Reddit before, so you may have seen me arguing the exact same thing.
Or someone else, because it’s pretty common sense.
And corn and potatoes are farmed very differently, seeing as one is underground and one is not. Same industry, more or less, though. In my humble opinion.
I too might be interested. Someone should make a documentary comparing Tupperware and dildomaking.
