My thoughts on this corpulent technology can be summed up by some brilliant thinkers.
“Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius—and a lot of courage—to move in the opposite direction.” – E.F. Schumacher
“The cheapest, fastest, and most reliable components of a computer system are those that aren’t there.” – Gordon Bell
“Keep it simple. A simple solution has elegance. It is the result of an exacting effort to understand the real problem and is recognized by its compelling sense of rightness. I stress this point because it contradicts the conventional view that power increases with complexity. Simplicity provides confidence, reliability, compactness, and speed.” – Charles Moore
I think they’re not using it literally. In this context, corpulent just means bloated/gross. That is also its literal definition.
So I think the word works here.
M0oP0oI have only seen it used figuratively, why are you like this?
I have never once read corpulent in my life describing the physical state of an individual, it has always been about over indulgence or bloated or overly baroque style. Not saying it has not been used in a way to describe a fat person but that I am not able to prove a negative.
Ah, you seem to have some issues with literary devices. The question was what is called “rhetorical” and was not meant to be answered or taken literally.
Rhetorical questions are supposed to make a point, and I’m asking you what that point was.
Now my question is semi-rhetorical because while you could answer, it’s pretty clear that your question was just a phrase you saw somewhere that you’re trying to use as an insult even if it doesn’t quite fit the context.
Ok, why are you like this? Non rhetorical this time, as this is not even grammar nazi at this point but a complete lack of understanding of the even the possibility of nuance in the written word. Why do you seem to feel the need to ruin any non literal use of descriptive words? What broke in you to make you such a way?
It’s called “sealioning” and the only solution is to not engage with these types. They aren’t interested in honest answers, just controlling the conversation with a veneer of legitimacy to shield them from criticism.
Dude is just being a obtuse troll. Just block and move on.
For the first part, the corpulent thing, I’m just pointing out something that’s true. It’s unusual to use the word figuratively.
For everything after that, it’s because you’re kind of being a dick.
It’s unusual to use the word figuratively.
Sure, in tour experience. I’ve used and seen it used literally and figuratively.
For everything after that, it’s because you’re kind of being a dick.
Nah, I followed the back and forth and you’re the one being a dick trying to gatekeep the usage of a word.
