    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.

    Different people have different bodies of knowledge and experience. Their expertise on one question doesn’t transfer to another.

    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.

    I trust the opinions of open minded and wise scientists the most. The people that should IMO have been our leaders instead of self serving politicians.

    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.

    I don’t trust anyone’s opinion unless it’s based on sound evidence and repeatable results and even then, I’ll only trust the opinions of those who are willing to change their opinion based on new knowledge. So, given that, I’ll trust my young kids opinions on things they have researched and learnt about, or a doctor’s opinion if it’s on something they’re knowledgeable about, and my own in areas where I’m an expert.

    How MUCH I trust them is a different thing. If it’s something that doesn’t really affect me if it’s not 100% accurate…meh

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.
