Jännät (/ˈjænːæt/). Finnish adjective, plural: "interesting, cool, neat, exciting".

  • How to I prove to someone that the U.S. moon landing wasn't staged?

  • I don't even believe in y'all

  • How to I prove to someone that the U.S. moon landing wasn't staged?

  • This'd be my answer. A friend (former at this point) of mine fell down a conspiracist rabbit hole, and at one point started insisting the moon landings were faked. Now, I happen to know a lot (or more than most, anyhow) about the Apollo program, and absolutely nothing I could say helped. Either they pivoted to some new bullshit argument they'd heard on some YouTube video, or just dismissed things as lies when convenient.

    You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into.

  • Must be why you have universal healthcare and actually tax billionaires.

  • No no, they're clearly different teams. The logo for one is a donkey, and the other uses an elephant. One uses blue, one uses red.

    See, totally different.

  • Israel orders more than 500,000 people to evacuate Beirut’s southern suburbs [Update] Israeli military begins strikes on Beirut suburbs

  • You're surprised that Israel still has US bombs to drop?

  • Youtube doesn't support my pronoun (or custom pronouns not in their predefined list) 🙄

    Jump

  • Oh sure, I don't disagree at all, I'm just trying to think of the logic behind why it's not in the list.

  • Youtube doesn't support my pronoun (or custom pronouns not in their predefined list) 🙄

    Jump

  • I guess they only listed languages with gendered personal pronouns? Doesn't make much sense for a Finn to specify their pronoun since it's just going to be "hän" regardless of gender

  • Neurotypical people are just as capable of being evil dicks

    OK, and remind me where I said they weren't?

    Selfish people aren’t narcissists

    Right, and where did I say all of them are?

    Cruel people aren’t psyhopaths.

    Cool, and where did I say all of them are?

  • Going on my 3rd or 4th year now (this isn't my only account), and frankly I'm not sure why I bother

  • The problem is all the other barbarians who won't sit down

  • What’s your most controversial opinion?

    Jump

  • If we allow people with significant dark tetrad personality traits (narcissism, machiavellianism, psychopathy, everyday sadism) or social dominance oriented people to have any meaningful amount of power over others, including the ability to run for office or vote, they will eventually turn societies into… well, what we see now.

    Unsurprisingly conservatism overlaps with those traits.

    So, ironically, to be able to run a functioning democracy, you'd have to exclude a fairly sizeable chunk of the population from participating in it

    Edit: and this includes directorial or managerial positions in any kind of organisation, because corporate psychopaths are common scarily common and very harmful

  • Considering that it's a Finnish company, the pronunciation is probably meant to be "yol-la" (approx)

    edit: /ˈjolːɑ/ for you IPA perverts

  • But all the “gain of function” stuff I’ve seen sounds like bullshit.

    But that happens to viruses all the time? How do you think we get flu pandemics?
