As unfortunate as this is, afaik, polar bears are one of the most aggressive animals around, intent on eating pretty much anything that moves. I don't doubt that it did pose a threat.

Apparently not, since that's it's own horseman.

How does one silently nod in a digital chat?

[–] ech@lemm.ee 14 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I don't get it either. I know a lot of lemmy users have an axe to grind with reddit, but treating every temporary outage like it's dead forever is just bizarre.

"Expedite", as if the company doesn't have direct control of it's own systems. What a load of bull.

Instagram has it's fair share of blame for the trend, but I don't think they were the progenitor, as it were. Snapchat was far more heavy-handed with face altering filters from the get-go, as I remember it. Instagram was mostly just the "old-school" sepia tone, black-and-white type filters for the most part until that picked up.

Evolution being slow is a good thing. Trying to shortcut it would just be a more direct way to destroy the species. Also a great example of the kind of thing I'm referring to.

[–] ech@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, I've wondered if it's something like that. Seems like a fairly easy trap to fall into, but hard to say for sure with only our singular reference point.

If you're not going to make a point related to the comment you responded to, why comment?

[–] ech@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Not remotely related to what they said.

[–] ech@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

Using the second definition, I'd still clarify as "false rhetoric" or something. Maybe that's just me shrug

Had to look it up myself. I saw both, but went with the hyphen for clarity.
