Agree, but people are like this not only on the internet but in real life on different subjects...
Some people are so naive that almost anything you say, they gonna take as real genuine advice froma stranger and until they get burned once or twice they will not learn.
Btw some people never learn.

there is always one who points this out or even acts like the internet oprah or dr phil. we all know internet and real world are different things. except some act the same and dont care. thats why we love our second amendment and our freedom of speech. its the problem people put their feelings into things that they shouldnt. debates and speeches shouldnt have peoples feelings put into them only facts.

The issue isn’t a “want” but a need. Kids born at around early 2000’s never developed the capacity to research, think critically, debate or articulate their ideas.
When a source posts a price list in the very original post, it’s not that the person asking for a price list was lazy, it’s that checking the original post isn’t even something that came to mind. They’ve learned to ask a device questions and follow those instructions. Then when you call them on it, they get defensive rather than form a comprehensive debate because they have never learned to do otherwise. If they have a position on anything , they find an echo chamber of others who agree with them and since they are validated, they have no reason to think any further.
It’s my opinion that the best course of action is to ignore them. Hopefully sources do the same. You would actually be doing them a favor in the long run.

This can lead to mountains of followup/spam mails as a lack of response can't possibly be intentional and must be solvable by repeating the same thing over and over. However, their avoidance of absorbing any information is just the setup for further age regression into mailing google q's like "what is $xxx in €?". The solution is probably ChatGPT.

Quite an overgernalization, don’t you think?

It's stereotyping, sure. Thing is, stereotypes exist and persist because they are generally accurate for describing the average individual from that population, right?
I basically said the exact same thing as him a few pages back. It has been my genuine experience with those now in early adulthood that they literally do not read books. They YouTube.
This carries over to their university work. They don't go to the library, generally. They wouldn't know what to do there, besides hop on a computer and go on YouTube. They genuinely just reverse-engineer shit wherever they are able and cheat because they don't value knowledge, generally. They are products of COVID & post-COVID education. They are woefully unprepared, and some sort of rebalancing is coming. This kind of societal weakness really needs to get purged every 100 years or so.

this is like next level psychology shit. Well said!
Maybe for kids born and raised in north America. Immigrant kids are a different breed.

Absolutely, children of immigrants are stereotypically overachievers. Ireland is no different from the States, however, with this phenomenon, don't kid yourself. Even men in their thirties are sitting around, watching their Apple TV and consuming far too much social media, ordering everything they need for next-day delivery from Amazon. It's gone just like America, and is even surpassing it, since it is overtaking America to the point of embarassment with infrastructure/transportation, education, prosperity, you'll inevitably suffer all the very same unintended consequences of excess as well. You know it; look at the drugs problems now.
What ye need is a kick up the hole, to end Irish neutrality, and start getting some combat besides just taking ricochet sniper fire in Israel peacekeeping missions.
Because those undersea transatlantic cables run right through Ireland, and Russia is not going to respect your neutrality for anything besides weakness and opportunity.

I saw that comment and held my tounge. I’d like to hear your stance on why you believe consuming information via text in a book is superior to a video & audio presentation?
Best thing is to stop spoon feeding lazy people who don't take the time to learn.

I didn't say that, did I?
What I said was they fucking YouTube their information.
There are very few YouTube videos that contain Footnotes with references, indeces of terms & concepts, etc. It's writ large infotainment, not scholarly information.
