Just to be clear—I know it’s said that this is almost a gish gallop statement—but it absolutely is not.

Since we’re just talking about the headline and not the contents of the article, then this is just a statement. It’s not an argument so it can’t be a gish gallop. If we take the implications of the statement as premises and the headline as a conclusion, then this is just one singular argument which also means it cannot be a gish gallop. Any argument will have a number of premises. Where do you begin? At any of the premises. Demonstrating that the premises are false will show the conclusion to be false. By definition a gish gallop is a great number of arguments that overwhelm an opponent. One argument simply cannot be a gish gallop.

What are your numbers supposed to mean? From your article:

Prior to the debate, a New York Times/Siena College poll released Sept. 28 found Midwestern voters prefer Walz to Vance: Walz was viewed favorably by 44% of voters and unfavorably by 41%, while Vance was viewed favorably by 42% of voters and unfavorably by 48%.

So 44% like Walz, 42% like Vance. 41% dislike Walz, 48% dislike Vance. Comparing 42 and 41 is comparing two different things

Quelqu’un a-t-il vu récemment un bon film ou une bonne série qu’il pourrait recommander ? Je préférerais regarder quelque chose en français

They also don’t hold back the aur which causes problems if an aur package is expecting a system package of a particular version, if I understand correctly

Don’t look into South Korean web security. If their cars are as badly designed as their websites… Yikes

The very annoying this is that BattleEye supports Linux, rockstar has just apparently decided not to ask for that from BattleEye

Agreed. Someone also made this little graphic to demonstrate how nit-picky it is. The discussion in this thread is also about how we should be critiquing his claims about why egg prices are the way they are.
