Why should anyone listen to what you have to say? Can you give a reason without an appeal to authority?

[–] m_f 9 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

If relying on any knowledge is bad, then why should we believe what you say? That's an appeal to authority

How much experience do you have in this? Talk is cheap

States like MN should just stop giving the federal government any money in return.

The joke is that he's directing his anger at the wrong thing. It's shooting the messenger, like punching your phone when seeing a picture of Musk on it.

They've fixed a lot of stuff like that in the comics they post each day to the site and which get posted here. See here for where they changed the text since he wrote about it:

There's some chatter in the Discord about it. The dev said he's going to try and push out a new update tonight that'll fix that and some other bugs too

Welcome new users! (self.announcements)

We've gotten a lot of new users over the past few days, and thought it would be good to make a post to help steer people in the right direction.

First of all, welcome!

You're on discuss.online, which is a platform for, well, discussing things online! πŸ˜ƒ

We're a general-purpose forum hosted in the USA, and welcome casual and serious conversation alike about any topic you're interested in. To start, here's a thread that lists lots of active communities you can join (communities are like subreddits) that aren't focused on politics, news, memes, or tech:

https://discuss.online/post/15026558

Go there, click on interesting communities (they start with !, like how /r/ works for subreddits). As an example, this post is in !announcements@discuss.online.

There's a much wider universe of people that you can talk to and interact with on here! You've probably heard about the Fediverse, ActivityPub, and other stuff like that, but don't sweat it. Start by finding your footing and finding some nice communities. Once you've done that, or if you're interested in jumping right in, @otter@lemmy.ca wrote a great guide to how discuss.online gives you access to a wider world of other people here: https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/get-started

We also have a chat! Join us at #online.discuss:discuss.online if you want a more casual chatting experience.

If you need help, have questions, or just want to chat and don't feel like joining the chat room above, feel free to post in the comments below!
