Backing up claims with facts is not “spoon feeding” people reality. It’s the basic mechanism of knowledge transfer and debate.

If you can’t back up the claims, don’t make them. No amount of ad hominem attacks will make your arguments better without factual support.

Saying, but not supporting with facts.

Whew, good thing I didn’t claim that then.

Perhaps you have fallen into the common trap of thinking “better than Trump” equates to “objectively good”.

At the start of his term we were hiding in houses and fighting for toilet paper and by the end of it things were much better.

Hugely disingenuous to claim that a global pandemic ending was a policy change.

And while the IRA was a decent piece of legislation, I’d love to hear how it was the “most progressive bill” since the New Deal. Hint: expensive ≠ progessive, especially when tangible results are hard to pin down.

(Not saying Biden was a bad president, but it’s fair to say he was a mediocre one)

Can you name some examples?

Biden was the best president in my lifetime

This is impossible unless you’re under 18, which is against the TOS of most/all Lemmy instances.

Because it was lower under Biden. We have numbers.

I’m so tired of living in a timeline where we pretend facts don’t exist to avoid upsetting the MAGAs.

Most people in the world want love. I hope the best for you and yours.

Yeah that’s fair. My RAM usage is through the roof lately, but it pretty clearly happened when I switched to a multimonitor setup. I’m much more likely to have a lot of stuff in the background now because it’s easier to have a lot open at the same time in the practical sense.

But I was lucky enough to grab a 64GB kit before prices went into the sky. Believe it or not, I was regularly up against the limit when I had 32GB.

“Starting to”? 16GB is just a few tabs open for long enough.

Assuming around USD $220 for a 16GB kit of DDR5, it now costs $27.50 more to run Ubuntu.

“0 64-bit Linux” is the hottest distro out there right now, challenging Hannah Montana Linux for the crown

I’m not understanding the logic here. Apple killed their last tower. That isn’t surprising, and their user base is perfectly happy buying nothing but SOCs.

Then there is a still-expanding PC gaming market, where building the machine from discrete parts is a portion of the hobby. By and large, this has never really overlapped with Apple’s user base.

The article does a poor job saying why we should expect non-Apple machines to go the same direction.

Name checks out. Definitely should have waited.

On Tuesday, the jury deliberated for only one day before agreeing that Meta should pay $375 million in civil damages for violating state consumer protections and misleading parents about the safety of its apps.

Not enough. These corporations operate on different math. They pay no taxes. They swim in currency. Pick the biggest realistic number you can imagine and then multiply it by the next biggest. Anything less will be factored out as the cost of business.

Case in point: $375 million is a mere fraction of what Meta spends in a bunch of different areas. Compared to profits, it’s practically rounding error. It won’t affect much.

It’s Always Projection™

Is this winning?

Can’t stop winning.

The sheer amount of vacuum in that orange head surely must be causing issues. I saw what happened to Oceangate. Granted it had more than one vacuum inside.

How many more signs are we waiting for?
