Games@sh.itjust.works•'Knowing Steam players are hoarders explains why you give Valve that 30%,' analyst tells devs: 'You get access to a bunch of drunken sailors who spend money irresponsibly'English
5·5 months agoUnfortunately, the article doesn’t really compare to other collectors. My wife’s bookshelves are full of a much higher cost library than my Steam library could ever hope to achieve, and many of them are still on her “TBR” list. She’ll also never read those physical copies, so she’s buying them twice so she can read them on her Kindle or listen on Audible.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why was the thread about the free VPN Riseup removed, while there's a 2 day old thread about Windscribe, a paid VPN still active?
181·10 months agoYou are mistaking a “concerted effort” with a general consensus that free VPNs are not a great idea. “If a service is free, you are not the customer, you are the product” is a pretty good rule of thumb. Your downvotes aren’t necessarily a conspiracy here.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that you technically aren't allowed to enter Valley Metro public transit if you just peed your pantsEnglish

I’ve tried using SFC multiple times and had it work zero times. One time after SFC failed to find anything wrong, I ended up fixing the machine by replacing the system file with a copy from a working machine.
I’ve been using ForwardEmail, and have been happy with them so far. Their free tier only allows aliasing, but the cheapest paid tier is only $3/month, and you can use Thunderbird/K-9 as your mail client.
Thanks, I had considered linking a reference, but I didn’t think he was disputing the definition. He was disputing my analysis that this was a valid example of the fallacy.
Maybe I have the wrong fallacy, or I’m just really stretching on this one.
This was my line of thinking:
- premise = there are no valid reasons to dislike X
- conclusion = people who dislike X don’t have any valid reasons
Begging the question is a logical fallacy that assumes the conclusion within the premise. If OP was not being genuine, then the faulty conclusion would be “there are no good reasons to dislike GrapheneOS, therefore why do people dislike GrapheneOS?”
It’s very close to begging the question, though. It really depends on OP’s actual intent, which is hard to determine through text. But it does seem like it could have a, “Those of you who still hate GrapheneOS, why are you wrong?” tone to it.
Edit: Reading through OP’s comments, they do sound genuine to me, I’m mostly just explaining why someone might mistake the post for begging the question.



I also had that procedure where the doctor only removes the affected part of the toenail. That was over a decade ago and I’ve never had the issue reoccur; and I still have my toenail.
