  • From Merriam-Webster: 1. : methods and attitudes typical of or attributed to the natural scientist. 2. : an exaggerated trust in the efficacy of the methods of natural science applied to all areas of investigation. I was refering to the second meaning.

    Why downvoted?! We are in jnpopular opinion, arent't we? :)

  • The temptation to consider that society's failures and the need to compensate for them don't exist is strong. It's one of scientism's best tropes. Yet here we are. If one asks your question truthfully (and not rethoricaly) and gives themselves the means to answer it rigorously, they're woke.

  • Exactly! And I keep sending them strangenlooking links that spark conversations on open source, surveillance capitalism and emancipation

  • I finally installed RethinkDNS on my phone. I configured redirections to invidious and other alternative front-ends on firefox, desktop but also mobile thanks to the recent update. I stopped appending "!g" to all my duckduckgo searches. And i got so addicted to a new social network that I quit all others LOOKING AT YOU LEMMY

  • A proverb.

    Because your examples are actual proverbs, that might be considered true or not, depending on who says it when.

  • I guess we are witnessing a form of metamorphosis of Lemmy. The Stroganov is us proving we can really get wildly absurd over something utterly benign.

    I'm so happy to be here. It's 6.30, my day is on the right tracks.

  • I have a kid, so I needed to think this through before teaching it. I ended up teaching the kid that you would need to look everywhere at all times, but that would require having eyes everywhere, right? So you just start looking in the direction where cars could come first, and then you keep looking rightleftrightleft until you crossed the damn street

  • I'll always remember watching "The Last Samurai" thrice on the same flight just to kill time...

    Although the best is handheld video games. A week gives you enough time to buy a cheap retro-gaming thing that'll make the 12 hours disappear!

  • Voilà ! My first great piece of advice found on Lemmy! So thankful for this, and for witnessing the sudden growth of a great community here on Lemmy <3
