These are the dumbest human beings on planet Earth. Not knowing what a paperweight is and then downvoting me for pointing it out should be subject to imprisonment.

This is extremely interesting and illuminating. The kind of thing I’ve been interested in my whole adult life.

Sorry about that. I was being cheeky but serious. Here it is in English:

They’re talking about Republicans/right wingers who complain when a mostly red looking map (Republican won counties) doesn’t result in a Republican victory. It’s the whole “people live in cities” joke.

So what happens is, these folks look at a map of the US that’s divided into counties and they see these enormous swaths of red, but a Democrat has won, and they—100% in earnest—say that it’s evidence that the election is stolen. That’s why we respond with “land doesn’t vote” and “people live in cities”.

Does that make more sense?

That’s what decent folks call anecdotal evidence. I’m looking for something more definitive.

Yeah, I can’t stand that stuff. Like when Michael Moore was celebrating the Texas grid failures and the ice storm. I’m like, the whole reason I’m against traitor lunatic policies is because they are harmful.

The only time I’m down with “have the day you voted for” type thinking is when it’s a rich person losing their business or something.

It’s good to slow down to get the traitor off your ass, but be careful: our traitor zoomed around us and cut us off out of spite. My girlfriend pointed out that behavior like that will get that worthless dumbfuck shot one day.

They’re talking about traitor lunatics who complain that a mostly red map (traitor lunatic counties) doesn’t result in a traitor lunatic victory. It’s the whole “people live in cities” joke.

Who’s laughing at senseless deaths? You mean people are laughing at the flood victims??

I was just wondering the connection between flatpaks and the terminal because I’ve never heard of flatpaks before and Wikipedia says they’re a sandboxed package management system or something?

Yeah I don’t think Israel is managed well enough to be afraid of mutually assured destruction. I think it will just start tossing nukes. I am not thrilled about this.

That is literally the exact definition I am trying to explain to these worthless dumbfucks.

My concern is that unlike Nazi Germany, Fascist Israel will not surrender. I am very worried that soon it is going to start nuking the region as part of a state failure cycle.

Yes. The person who correctly points out that functional computers are not paperweights is a cultist. If you legitimately believe that, you need a whole lot worse than prison.

Sure, but does nobody know what a paperweight is?

We do not have different definitions of a functional machine. If you think they’re overpriced, fine; underperforming per price:performance ratio? Fine. Whatever you want. But brand new Apple products work and you all sound ridiculous defending calling them paperweights.

No it does not. Anyone who refers to a functional machine as a paperweight should be involuntarily committed to a psychiatric hospital for evaluation.

I stopped reading when it said “$2000 paperweights”. You can dislike Apple for any number of reasons, but this doesn’t make sense. Its products work just fine and they run the software that’s on them.

What kind of evidence are you seeing that there is a loss in skill requirements and lowered barriers to entry?

I love JustWatch. Gets you the exact info you’re looking for pronto.
