iByteABit, to asklemmy in With the way the world's going, is there even a point to anything anymore?
@iByteABit@kbin.social avatar

The world is pretty fucked up, it always has been and so it will continue to be.
And none of it really matters either, it's all just a tiny flash of light in the darkness that will soon fade away to nothing.

However, here we are, living in a beautiful planet that was blessed with life, so many different plants and animals, sounds, smells and tastes, music and art, being able to talk with others, laugh, cry, love. We're only microscopic creatures that live on the tiniest spec of dust imaginable, but to our tiny eyes there is plenty of beauty to be found. And for as long as we are able to see that beauty, there is a point to it for us, we can try our best to enjoy what we have for the little time that we have it, before we finally become one with the universe.

This aligns very well with my own philosophy about life, you couldn't have said it better!

@iByteABit@kbin.social avatar

I'll believe it when I see it, but if it does happen then I hope this is just the beginning of brighter days for the LGBT+ community in Greece

iByteABit, to asklemmy in Lemmy, what are your "missed flight" stories?

iByteABit, to asklemmy in How do I learn to detect logical fallacies in a conversation?
@iByteABit@kbin.social avatar

This is why critical thinking is such an essential skill. So many people out there are convinced about things with bullshit arguments, just because the person talking is charismatic/confident or popular and influential.

Note: Critically thinking doesn't mean denying everyone and everything and holding controversial beliefs in order to feel smarter than others, it often starts with admitting your very own mistakes first. Just like with other's arguments you should be applying the same checks to your own thinking and notice your own fallacies to correct them.

I love how unnecessary it was to the overall context lol

iByteABit, to asklemmy in What's the benefit of using Kbin over Lemmy?
@iByteABit@kbin.social avatar

People say that the devs are extreme left, though I haven't seen anything extreme first hand, simply being communist is a very valid opinion but I guess there's more to it. Besides politics, the project is very nice and promising, and I've had very useful feedback from the devs while trying to make a pull request for a new feature.

iByteABit, to random in I laugh at the Ford every time I see it. Today i got at chance to park next to it and the the size difference is comically large.

I can't take cars like this seriously, I just assume whoever drives them is a total piece of shit

The one you sent seems a bit much for my use, but from what I see there are surely better backpacks out there than the one I use, it's worth it to make some research there. It probably makes more sense to go to physical stores and try them out with my laptop and keyboard so I see what they're really like.

We don't leave things here, it's an open office and we sit on different desks every time. It would very likely be stolen :P

iByteABit, to worldnews in Is Turkey now joining the EU? No, but the EU is engaging
@iByteABit@kbin.social avatar

I seriously hope that they won't be able to while they're warmongering in the east and keep on abusing the Greek borders to the west and claim that Greek lands belong to them. If they stop their bully behavior and play nice with their neighbors then I'll be glad to welcome them and keep history in the past.

@iByteABit@kbin.social avatar

This is pretty standard in concerts, just shove your way through some people to go someplace better

iByteABit, to politics in New, Conservative Push To Weaken Child Labor Protections Is Gaining Steam
@iByteABit@kbin.social avatar

The USA is going speedrun mode straight to the shitter, the people need to wake the fuck up and put worthy people in power, whatever it takes. If this conservative trend doesn't end (worldwide not just in the US) then this will end very badly for us, our kids, and their kids too. Things are looking more and more like the early industrial era and less like what people were hoping the world would be like during the 2000s...

iByteABit, to RedditMigration in Lemmy devs pitching lemmy 3 years ago to r/linux
@iByteABit@kbin.social avatar

Thank you, I'm tired of everyone taking this too far. I'm also hardly against authoritarian regimes of any kind, left and right, but this is a generic use open source software we're talking about, not a political party. I support the platform and I appreciate all the devs for what they do, it's really good software and it makes me happy as a programmer myself to see social media code that isn't filled with bloat and spaghetti code or malicious anti privacy features
