I’m a simple man. I see a cute dog, I upvote.

God damn that’s a great game. At the same time, I think they did this knowing that folks would die all the time, so they didn’t want each death to be super punishing.

Thank you for sharing this. I had no idea of this practice. I can easily see how this form of monasticism can be beneficial and harmful.

My straight edge dad, a doctor, would comment there are a number of very useful drugs. “Drugs Are Really Excellent” was his interpretation.

GFGJewbacca OP ,

It’s far more than just looking to one set of scripture when it comes to the charedi movement in Israel. They’re reading in thousands of years of Rabbinic Judaism, most importantly the idea that the sacrificial cult of Ancient Israelite Religion (A.K.A. Torah) is the way God wants people to engage in worship. It’s using thousands of years of anti-Semitism as a cudgel to state “we can’t be oppressors because we were oppressed.”

My hot take is that one reason for a strong connection between the U.S. and Israel is that Israel is a settler-colonial, white supremacist, patriarchal, theocratic apartheid ethnostate. There’s a non-insignificant portion of the U.S. populace who wish the U.S. had the same kind of government.

I was long distance with my wife for over a decade before we started living in the same place. We stayed committed the entire time because we care deeply for each other, and wanted each other to get the education we needed. Did it suck to be apart that long? Damn right. But to say that it’s human nature to cheat when not in the same place is BS.

I came in here to say just this. I’m a Jewish clergyman, so I deal with this kind of shit a lot. The term isn’t just brainwashing; it’s actively seeking to erase Judaism as part of Christianity. It’s shit like this, combined with Christian Nationalism, which makes me jumpy at first when someone identifies as a Christian.

Framework Laptop 16: our exclusive hands-on - theverge.com (www.theverge.com)

“Reviews of the original Framework Laptop 13 were a little skeptical; my colleague Monica repeatedly pointed out that an upgradable laptop’s value “hinges on future support.” But in 2022, her headline was “promises kept.” And this year, as Framework shipped its third set of CPU upgrades for the Framework 13 while...

I’ve been seeing a number of people talk about this laptop on Lemmy, and I can see why. I have dreamt of building out a laptop like my desktops, and these folks seem to be able to make it happen.

I’ll chime in with my vote for NewPipe as well. It’s served me very well, and does so much.

I think for a number of us it’s nostalgia, like what @Tosti was saying. I too was there when the old memes were formed. And I think you’re on to something too, OP.

I love that site! I’ve gotten so many books from there. Thanks for making sure more people know about it.

I recommend pairing that with Calibre to manage all the ebooks you get, and to convert them into useable formats for your device(s).

I’m a huge fan of Evolve, an idle game played in the browser which only requires a network connection to start up. Saves are text that you can export and load to a file. There’s lots of strategy, all kinds of ways to play, and makes for some funny stories.

Definitely an Afrikaaner word. It’s also the name of an elevated bridge in the Kirstenbosch botanical gardens in Cape Town that goes through trees. It looks like and is named after the snake!

Leave it to the U.S to use and export munitions banned by ~120 other countries because they’re practically a warcrime.

Liberal democracies love their dictators, as long as they remain theirs.

Damn, you’re making me want to take my DS version out and start playing again. When I emulated it, I was at a point where I had unlocked every ending and beat Spekio in his final form.

Hold up, you’re saying that tech bros should not kill people to make money? In this day and age? How else are they supposed to do it in this day and age?

…/s in case it’s not obvious.
