Fantasy is right-leaning while SF is left-leaning. Easy peasy.

I begun judo a few weeks ago. The teacher was clear: it may not be useful in actual fight, but we don't fight often in the real life. But it's great for your body, spirit and it will teach you how to fall without hurting yourself. And these things are way more useful than self defense.

I find it mildly infuriating that people still buy on Amazon 😅

It's a great novel, but not a love story.

It's a lie. This Government backed “news service” hides us the fact that this is a Tribble.

Denying that Jesus probably had an erection on the cross is a negation of the human nature of Christ, thus an heresy.

My secret to remember then is to have children.

If reincarnation is a thing, I hope I'll marry my wife again in the next life. And all the following ones.

The “7 moutains mandate” is the cancer of Christian theology. It should be deounced by every denomination.

Yeah, but no: blind and visually impaired people have troubles navigating the web because of these links that are opened in a new tab/window.

It could be an option to activate, though.

Don't change your underwear for two days.

That's exactly what an IT person would say to hide the fact they watch what I do on my computer!

Oyster mushrooms are one of the few known carnivorous mushrooms. They're cool (and edible).

"Based on my experience in 37-plus years in the U.S. military, if one side can shoot and the other side can't shoot back, the side that can't shoot back loses," he continued.

This guy generals.

It shouldn't be indeed, but unfortunately it is. We can't just hide our personal responsibility behind the State when the State is deficient.

“No God before me” can have, and does have in the history of Christianity, three possible interpretations.

  • the exclusivist one (Evangelical churches mainly): the Christian God is the only God, you have to confess him directly to be saved.
  • the inclusivist one (mainly the Catholic church, and some Protestants), the Christian God is the only God, but you can unknowingly pray him when you pray an other God within other traditions, in other words you can be Christian without knowing it.
  • the pluralistic one (other Protestants), most religions are equally valuable, but if you are Christian you should pray only the Christian God.

Of course this is just a model, all positions are deeper than that and most people mix two or even the three models. I don't know where the Orthodox Churches stand.

For myself, I tend to be somewhere between the second and the third model.

Have I ADHD? I thought I was just stupid ^^.

I'm proud of you.

Android is exactly why I think it's important not to ditch GNU in GNU/Linux. I don't care about codelines, I care about the philosophy.

Okay, thank you both for the correction !

I'm pastor in France. Nothing techy…

With enough women, it's possible.

It's quite easy, but you'll need an account and a client.

  1. Create an account on eternal-september.org
  2. Change and note your password.
  3. Follow the tutorial of your elected client. I recommend !thunderbird@lemmy.world, you can learn how to add a Usenet account in Thunderbird here.

Ask me if you have a question!

English is so confusing 😅

The GBC was my first console (I had the green one), I feel so much nostalgia seeing these!

But the price is far to high for my little pockets.

It's not that easy, because the vast majority of articles are for using Usenet to download binaries. It's not what the article was talking about.

More or less. The Deutschlandlied) is the hymn of Germany since before the Nazi era, wasn't changed by the Nazis and still is today. But today only the third stanza is officially the hymn. However, people often sing the first one, which is the most well known.

During the Nazi era, there were a second hymn, which is more directly linked to this ideology.

Sometimes I'm badly parked, and I understand it only when I leave my car. It's normal, you're right.

But you know what's not normal? To stay badly parked. It doesn't cost much time to start the car again to move it backward a little…

I doubt it'd work with LibO Calc, but I'll try.

I guess there’s nothing new under the sun.

And that's some old hebrew wisdom 🙂

They know the most well known Pokémon thanks to merch and a few old cards that my wife and me had when we were children and conserved.

My oldest watched a few episodes when she was 5, and “read” a Pokémon manga after (she watched the images, she didn't know how to read). I promised her that I will teach her how to play the cards when she'll know how to read … I will keep my promise and buy her her own deck for her 7th birthday :-)

mutt, because it looks like it's from the last 20 years. Of the 20th century.

Thanks to Google and Facebook it was more widely used. When they stopped their involvement, XMPP went back to its previous state.

The Fediverse is already popular. If Meta embrace it before leaving it, it will come back to its present state, like XMPP. But unlike XMPP, the previous state is a good one. Thus it's not something I fear.

I do tend to think that we should defederate, but the XMPP example seems irrelevant to me. It's more like an email situation. That's something I fear.

In my republic (France), Republicans suck too. It looks like you're right: cool Republicans only exist in monarchies.

Username checks out.

Nothing's perfect. But that doesn't mean we should accept the worse.

XMPP is still alive, and is just what it was before Google used it. I don't understand this argument.

Synoptics were written decades after the authentic letters of Paul, so it's quite more complicated than what you imply. But yeah, there were debates about this subject in early Christianity.
