>trying to force abortion to the margins along with birth control

Do you have some suggestions about the doctrines that Catholics should assent to?

deep_concern··on Taste Is All That's Left
"When you don't create things, you become defined by your tastes rather than ability. Your tastes only narrow and exclude people. So create."

deep_concern··on I love LLMs, I hate hype
>One, this constant bullshit about some window closing, or the perpetual underclass, or falling hopelessly behind. This is negative valence hype, not only is it not true, it’s mostly designed to make you feel bad about yourself and move to shitty San Francisco where everything really does suck like how these people claim.

The LG V30 and Galaxy S8 have a headphone jack AND have IP68 waterproofing, versus the Pixel 2's (and iPhone 7/8) IP67.

The only reason to remove the headphone jack is to sell more dongles and wireless headphones. That's it.

Consumers are not asking for it for the aesthetics. It doesn't make the phone much thinner. It doesn't make the phone easier to manufacture.

deep_concern··on Investor Bulletin, July 25: Initial Coin Offerings
It seems like Golem compute tokens would not be considered securities, but what about obvious joke coins that are only a value store, like the FUCK token?
