People are often rewarded with power or money for doing/saying shitty things.
If you are rewarded for something, you are likely to continue the pattern.
DerisionConsulting@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•what’s the weirdest word in your language?English521·4 months agoIn English, it has to be any of the Contronyms. We have so many, and it really makes it hard for newer speakers to understand some things.
You dust a cake by adding powder, you dust a table by removing powder.
You seed a field by adding seeds, you seed a fruit by removing the seeds.
The only thing there that I use is Battle.net.
This might not be helpful, but I found that installing it through Lutris worked for me. Systems and OSs are different, so it may not work for you.
Use your computer to do the things you want, and if you need to use Windows to do it, use Windows to do it.
DerisionConsulting@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Should it be against the rules (on sites in general) to mention a troll's alias in an expose/callout, even though the troll lies about everything about themselves and is a known catfisher?English1·4 months agoThis isn’t really a question, but a very thinly veiled accusation.
Maybe post this somewhere that it belongs.
DerisionConsulting@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is a human behaviour you've never understood?English4·5 months agoThe mine + yours thing is intimate. You are experiencing the same thing at the same time, while being somewhat vulnerable to the other participant.

Holding someone’s hand
Kissing someone’s lips

If something isn’t important enough to have a specific place, it isn’t important enough to own.
DerisionConsulting@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•People who speak English as a second language: how confusing is it that nouns are not gendered?English297·6 months agoNon-gendered wording isn’t exclusive to English, it’s mostly other European languages that stick to doing that.
There are some languages that don’t even have different words for “he” and “she”.
Edit: made the wording less asshole-y
DerisionConsulting@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•X's Objection to the Onion Buying InfoWars Is a Reminder You Do Not Own Your Social Media AccountsEnglish13·7 months agoInfowars was/is a media company, Alex Jones’ show was on TV and online.
They are known for peddling and creating far right conspiracy theories, and because of this were often banned from social media websites for breaking their Terms of Service.
Because Elon is a right-wing conspiracy theorist who likes Alex Jones, he unbanned infowars from Twitter when he(Elon) bought it.Inforwars was recently sued into the ground because of the claims he made to his audience about the victims of school shootings and their families. Because of this, he was ordered to have his assets liquidated.
The Onion (a satirical news/comedy website) won the bid for Inforwars and its assets, and Elon isn’t a fan of this, so he’s trying to not allow The Onion access to the Inforwars Twitter account.
DerisionConsulting@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Lemmy, how bad for an individual can consuming cannabis be?English14·7 months agoI don’t smoke weed, but you may want to break things down to be more specific. Because currently, the answer is “they die” or “They DUI someone else, they go to jail, then they can’t get a job when they out, so they become homeless. While homeless they start doing survival sex-work, and they are forced into dangerous and unwanted kinks. They then die, of starvation in the gutter, full of debilitating STIs”
Are you smoking a derivative, like shatter?
Are you smoking the actual plant? wrapped in paper? from glass?
Are you vaping something glycol-based?
Are you using a dry-plant vaporizer?
Are you buying your weed from a legal, controlled source?
Are you getting something that’s laced?

It was cheap, it gets small, and the screen is on the inside, meaning I don’t need to worry about things scratching it, and the battery lasts a long time.
If there is another similar phone when I go to replace mine, I will grab it.
If all the market offers me is an expensive phone with a giant outer screen, I won’t.
DerisionConsulting@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you secretly judge people for?English2·8 months agoI think it’s because they are emulating chaos-based reality tv shows.
These garbage reality shows had people using speaker-phones in public so they can record both sides of the conversation as easily as possible.
DerisionConsulting@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•TCG card shop owners, workers, spectators: How often have you seen someone buy one of the really expensive hitter cards?English43·8 months agoA card that costs $100+, about once a day.
A card that costs $250+, about once a week.I did once sell 4 dual-lands in a week, all in different transactions, but that was a fluke. Also, I was trying to sell them as a personal challenge.
Edit: This was a physical store, I assume larger mostly only stores would sell more.
