    My own.

    It’s cliché but listening to my gut typically works out

    Honestly, it depends on what we’re talking about

    I trust my nerd friend’s opinions on computers, and I trust my car friend’s opinions on cars, but probably not so much the other way around.

    No single person knows everything, and trusting any single person completely about everything is foolish.

    That OP always has an agenda. Doesn’t matter which OP but there is always one.

    Hank Green, and Alec from Technology Connections. Wildly different energy levels, but broadly speaking I trust them to do their homework or to outright say they haven’t.

    Mine. Unless my partner or best friend heavily disagree, then I know it’s probably not right.

    In general my brother. He has schooling equivalent to my own and we both have interests and specialties that can converge a bit but also complement each other. Basically I like to discuss things with him because he both can get things im talking about but also may have a perspective or knowledge beyond my own. I think he feels the same but who knows. He seems to call me to talk about things as much as I call him.

    Only 3 people i dont know whos opinions ive actually trusted.

    www.penny-arcade.com guy

    Yahtzee but I think hes stopped doing his thing

    Jonathan Pie - spoof news reporter who goes on rants at the cameraman between takes.

    All 3 of these people have almost exactly the same opinions on things I already know about and think I understand. I trust them enough to have the right opinion on stuff I dont.

      When Penny Arcade used to do the “We’re Right” awards, I always looked at them for games that I’d missed during the year, and I was never steered wrong.

      Yahtzee is still doing the same thing on a new channel called Second Wind. His new show is called Fully Ramblomatic and it’s basically no different from Zero Punctuation.

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions


Rules: (interactive)


1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].


5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for ‘how do I?’, type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.


6) No US Politics.

Please don’t post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world


7) No Hit-and-Run questions.

Please don’t delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It’s not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it’s not in the spirit of the community.


8) No Bots.

Posts or comments from bots, LLM’s, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.


Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.
