Where'd you go?

What on earth could someone do with 80,000 lbs of beef? You can't exactly move that kind of volume on the black market. Storing that amount of beef alone would take a massive amount of space and cooling.

This reminded me of a joke I heard one time. "You know how they always say that aliens built the pyramids in Egypt? This is how you know Mexicans are the best workers in history. There are also pyramids in Mexico. Nobody questions who built those."

Steam VR runs on Linux natively, doesn't it? I switched to Linux a few weeks ago but haven't tried VR gaming on it yet.

Yep, with the recent responses I now agree with you.

I don't think they're trolling, this seems to genuinely be their belief and warrants discussion. The poster mentioned recently that they have autism, and as a neurodivergent person myself I can attest that it often takes some back-and-forth to realize when I'm wrong.

I think they were using the karma count to show how much they utilized the platform, emphasizing how big the gesture of deleting their account was.

When I was deep in the Reddit hole I was obsessed with getting upvotes and avoiding downvotes. It was a dopamine hit. When I moved to Lemmy I joined an instance that doesn't allow or show downvotes, and it has been a breath of fresh air.

Only 69% support gay marriage? That's wild.

I think the difference is that you're an intellectually capable person. I remember reading that a person of very low IQ is simply unable to imagine anything different than their perceived reality. If you asked a very low IQ person how they would feel right now if they hadn't eaten breakfast, they wouldn't be able to provide an answer beyond "What do you mean? I did eat breakfast."

I think about this a lot when I see people parrot talking points from Fox News without being able to intellectually explain any nuances or create any new information from what they've heard.

There's a reason why white men without college degrees are the largest Trump-voting demographic. The more educated a person becomes, the less likely they are to support Trump.

Happens to the best of us. One time I accidentally a whole coca-cola bottle. It was bad.
