To that 35%, I share the words of John Lennon from the beforetimes…
You say you got a real solution, well, you know
We’d all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution, well, you know
We’re all doin’ what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is, brother, you have to wait
Take off the masks, you fucking cowards
(If you feel the urge to downvote: go ahead but ask yourself - do you feel threatened?)
lol no I just think what you said is wrong and arrogant about being able to win that argument from even a logic perspective. Arguing the absence of lowercase-g god is a Sisyphian task if ever there was one. It reads like a teenager who binged Dawkins videos wrote it.
That’s not fair! It’s against the rules!

For me, I’m Team Proxmox. It’s just easy to spin up containers for pretty much anything I need. No need for the resource overhead of a full-on virtual machine if I simply need to run a LAMP app. Anything you really have an issue transitioning from Docker to LXC can still be run inside a container with Docker installed. And if you need to set up a VM for Windows or pfSense or some other OS for whatever reason, it’s insanely easy to do.
DARPA doesn’t build the real thing, they fund the building of the real thing, it’s their MO. The robot dogs and bipeds and quadcopter drones that Boston Dynamics and Anduril and other companies have been building are the frontier and DARPA is one financier amongst a sea of others. The Ellisons just bought our military, apparently, or at least purchased a $130M stake in it, to illustrate a point that we’re fucked even if the robots don’t end up being the most efficient way to do the deed.
A doubling is still a big deal, though. You made a difference! Imagine if that were to keep up throughout the neighborhood.
Like if we could rip open our chest to show our heart on command as often as we want.
Here is a horror you might not have known about that your comment made me recall: The Cannulated Cow. Your chest idea seems plausible next to the holey cows and I don’t like it one bit.
Those are mostly alright, very bribable, and will take our undesirables for labor or whatever-the-fuck. The big ones, they want to be the big kahuna. The little ones, you can’t trust; they’ll turn on ya for short money.
…this started as a joke of a shitpost and ended feeling a little too plausible to serve that purpose, so, uh, hmm
Looks like it has an inertial sensor to control the view, here’s there relevant bit from the article:
The parts he purchased online include two displays that max out at 2880×1440p and 90 Hz refresh rate, two lenses, an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensor, and an Arduino microcontroller board. The other parts of the headset were 3D-printed.
…
The headset features individually adjustable IPD, interchangeable faceplates, and head tracking. But it does have downsides — at full resolution, it only runs at 60 Hz. Also, it only has three degrees of freedom (3DoF), which means it tracks looking up and down, left and right, and tilting the head left and right. He explained he didn’t bother equipping it with 6DoF as 3DoF was enough for his sim racing.
This feels like a Mitch Hedberg quote, I think he’d appreciate it

I wonder, too. But, the flavors of nature are ever changing, and also I think the ancient Israelites kind of inadvertently set their religion up in such a way that eventual division was kind of inevitable. Prophets can be born or inspired to deliver a message at any time at all, and a concept of the destruction and renewal of the world was noteworthy at least as far back as the Book of Daniel at ~200BCE. Check out Jewish Apocalypticism for a little more about that. But the transition from pantheon to monotheism that took place in the ancient Near East is a really interesting time period not only because of the really cool diversity of myths it produced but also because it took place at a time where history was just starting to be recorded, so there’s just so much cool interactions going on between cultures, a rapidly evolving and diversifying larger civilization, lots of languages with overlapping and phonetically-similar words but varying means of recording their language, religious leaders and their students often being among the very few who could read anything being documented (imagine the power imbalance that created).
Nice! Look for content about the Enuma Elish (which is basically like the Babylonian creation story) to hear all about Tiamat and their counterpart, Apsu (embodiment of fresh waters amongst the void) and their relationship followed by an eventual battle that ensues between descendants of Apsu and Tiamat, leading to a god named Marduk becoming the head of their pantheon (and also the god that raised Babylon from sand into a great city). From there, check out the wiki for tehom and if you’re looking for videos, peruse the online video warehouse of your pleasure for links between Babylonian Tiamat and Hebrew tehom and you will not be disappointed. I’m pretty sure Richard Elliot Friedman covers it in one of his lectures about the Hebrew Bible/OT, although I can’t recall exactly which one offhand.
Ancient Mesopotamia, hands down. You’ve got the Sumerians, the Babylonian empire, the Akkadian empire. There’s creation myths, flood myths, myths about great battles between the elder gods. Gilgamesh, Sargon, Hammurabi. Such cool artwork and artifacts were left behind for us to find. Friggin ziggurats. And they figured out writing, which has proven useful. Also they had cultural overlap with other notable societies like the ancient Israelites/Canaanites and Egyptians, which allowed for borrowing and retelling of stories, myths, and legends among the people of the time. Pieces of the story of Moses are apparent in Sargon’s personal account of his history. You can see lots of the Noah story in Gilgamesh, and also in Atrahasis. An elder, primordial god named Tiamat is an embodiment of sea water and its associated chaotic nature that existed in the void before creation, and is probably cognate with the Hebrew word “tehom” meaning “the abyss”.
This is a rogue Supreme Court
Just read the article and it was more that Bad Bunny has been avoiding playing a lot of shows in the US due to the possibility of ICE targeting his audience, and this seems to be ICE confirming that’s their jam and they will do it.
Edit: but also, yes, the govt doesn’t know and they are 100% just going after people that “look Mexican” in places where ICE is concentrated.
But does he know about the anti-Christ?
Tangential note: these recent episodes of South Park have done a great job playing to a very small and targeted audience and I’ve really enjoyed watching them troll the absolute shit out of that very narrow audience. The galloncheer exec you speak of knows what I’m talking about.
