  • The people who are saying leave, are the ones seeing you as the frog slowly boiling, but not realizing it until it's too late.

    Of course it sucks. Of course you might have to build life anew, but a real life beats a kettle that's heating up.

    All I'm saying it's not black and white, and many probably already left or are in the process.

  • Yeah, it'll be more common knowledge when it hits next summer and current era of adblocking seizes to exist on Chrome.

  • The change this time around is not 3 more years having to code for IE9 😄

  • It's just another Chromium reskin on Android. I'm glad my Z Fold 5 didn't come with it any longer, so maybe they are finally letting go of it on brand new models.

  • I am personally unaware of any serious reason to believe that Firefox’s numbers will improve soon.

    Yeah about that. Manifest V3 will infuse Firefox userbase nicely come next summer.

  • The exact opposite. I reckon the issue is that you don't understand what you read.

    There's nothing to apologise, when the hurt stems from not understanding what you read.

  • Any hurting of feelings spanning from not knowing what a word means is your own responsibility.

    I nor anyone else can be responsible for problems in your understanding of modern English. Not in the slightest.

    Simply, you have a misconception about the word, not an opinion.

    You are, of course, welcome to come with any arbitrary definitions for common words, but doing so will just make communication with others more difficult. Still doesn't make them "linguistic opinions". It's language, which evolves constantly, whether you acknowledge the fact or not.

  • I'm not wrong though. "Dude" is now also used as a unisex term. It's not the 60s anymore.

    Unisex is an adjective indicating something is not sex-specific.

  • Dude is not gender specific, you moron. Unisex terms are suitable for any type of sex. Including your insane bug-sex.

  • That dude is a class a troll and/or batshit. Not sure which, but I'll be taking the same action.

  • It appears my earlier comments were difficult to understand. I thought I was clear and succinct. Perhaps read them again?

    Then again it's unsurprising that you are asking for a verification, given that you felt it necessary in the first place to inject a retarded complaint about a fictional story to a random comment, in shitpost, on Lemmy.

  • You roughly deserve the same amount of respect you give, so an appropriate retort in line with your tone. From one point of view.

  • You are obnoxious, and your opinion is the stupidest thing I've heard all week.

    Disliking pure fiction is one thing, but whining about it to random people online is borderline batshit insane. Take your meds.

  • Didn't expect the day to come when I can no longer use Chromium based browsers.

    Oh well, anyway.

  • Just because I don't agree with your opinion doesn't make me rude or unpleasant. I suppose my first comment may appear rude if you are not familiar with the joke. Also, if you wish to stop engaging with a person, then consider not replying at length, and then doing what's pretty much putting your fingers in your ears. I'll give my piece regardless, as this is not a private forum and I'm allowed to write. Feel free to block me though.

    Firstly: you calling a well written post as pretty much useless (not helpful) was rude from my pov. And one that's filed under a thread, on a shitposting board of all places. For one reason or another, you saw no value in a post, but 50 others did. International Phonetic Alphabet is familiar to most non-native English speakers, so maybe the discrepancy comes from native speakers being confused, and rest of the world not? Idk, but I found your negativity towards the very informative comment weird, and the accusation that it was not explained in layman's terms weird (because that's what his last paragraph was). There's only so far you can dumb things down, some effort and base knowledge from the student is required.

    Hot take: Perhaps you were simply that one kid in a huge class that didn't get what this teacher told? Comparing a random comment in a Lemmy to someone doing a job they are being paid to do is downright weird, as if they were somehow required to hit the same level of professionality. I kind of figure that we might hail from countries with very different schooling systems. Where I'm from,. students are expected to work, Tom understand, so that the information sticks better as you were more engaged, rather than getting perfectly chewed up info to begin with.

  • Do you honestly see zero value in finding information, that when you couldn't understand, you ended up educating yourself about, finally learning something new?

    Far from useless, and certainly many people here did understand straight away, as well.

  • But it was. And educated you as well. Win-win.

  • It's a cool story
