Anyone else have a similar experience with one of these drives?

What the fuck are all these comments?

It's an article about an unresolved and recurring problem with a popular drive that the ostensibly reputable manufacturer is trying to hide.

But 90% of the comments are people jerking themselves off about how smart they are for using RAID, which is irrelevant to the point of the article... But never miss an opportunity to pleasure yourself in public I guess?

Lemmy definitely showing the same symptoms as Reddit as it grows. Too many people trying to show off how technically smart they are and just come off as obnoxious dweebs

I don't know why people think that this behavior would ever be restricted to Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, etc.?

There's one common element in all these systems...

Just remove the humans and the problem disappears

I’ve seen enough AI freak outs to know that’s not true.

My new preferred social media is just me talking to ChatGPT

Joke's on you, it's just me on the other end you're talking to.

And who do you think trained him? Data from the same people you dislike.

[-] klyde@lemmy.world 37 points 1 year ago

It's becoming more and more noticeable and it's making me sad.

The thing is, there's nothing wrong with sharing knowledge or pointing out best practices. What sucks is people replying JUST to point out the flaws and then gloat, without even fully comprehending what happened in the article. But this behavior has been around way longer than reddit.

Yes, More opinions always lead to better decisions

[-] NotYourSocialWorker@feddit.nu 2 points 1 year ago

I feel it's the same kind of people who complain regarding the same questions popping up at a forum often. I don't get why they can't just ignore them? Sure you could maybe find the answer by googling but sometimes you want to interact with others. Plus you might learn things you didn't know you should also have asked.

My feeling is that Stackexchange is the place that has taken this the furthest with the result that new people can neither ask any questions nor get any points to get more rights on the site.

It think it has always been there, it's part of the internet and tech culture. Lemmy is not going to magically change that. We can try to make it better by writing good contributions and supporting those who do.

Downvote those dweebs

Lemmy guess... this is your 2nd go with a social media platform?

Lemmy sit you down on my knee son and let grandpa here explain how social media worked in his old times of facebook just like I sat on my grandpappys knee and he explained to me the days of AIM.

Lemmy stop you right there—

[-] pinkdrunkenelephants@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

And what's most important is you putting smart people down to make yourself feel superior to them

[-] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago

You've been putting people down everywhere, quite hypocritical of you

[-] CmdrShepard@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

How else are they supposed to show off how much smarter they are than those grubby redditors?

[-] saddlebag@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

This is one the best uses of irony (probably unintentional or trolling) I've ever seen. Thanks

[-] pinkdrunkenelephants@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

They sure are, bro. They sure are
