Author is unfamiliar with actual Christianity (ie. dogmatic Catholicism). Unbaptized children go to a part of Hell where there is no fire (The Limbo of the Children); they are denied the beatific vision. Full explanation:
afaik Alex Jones came to the conclusion that Sandy Hook was a psy-op (then I think he changed his mind later); anyone who was not directly involved is simply interpreting video footage. I don't love or hate Alex Jones; I think you play fast and loose with the words "truth" and "facts" and you don't know Jones intentions, so it seems unjust to call him "deliberately lying".
After the Alex Jones verdict, can't they just get sued into oblivion for allowing xyz speech? Or more formally, on a long enough timeline it will revert to what it was because of lawsuits and threats of lawsuits.
I think its weird people read on tablets; seems like it either encourages bad neck posture or your arms will get tired. I read on a windows laptop with "android subsystem for windows" with the kindle app installed. Then I turn the window into the approx. size of a paperback and I can scroll with my mouse scrollbar. So I minimize eye movement and hand/arm movement. https://ibb.co/5xxFSGd
Strong disagree, the barrier to entry should be higher. That's why GitHub Pages is a signal of quality, at least the author knows what GitHub is. As cost approaches zero (time/effort/money) spam approaches infinity. Then you need gmail-level spam filtering and you end up with centralization.
"Valley Uprising" is about the rock-climbing scene in Yosemite from the 70s onward. It reminded me of the scrappy days of Silicon Valley which made me think that all "scenes" are really based around creatives, and they're only fun in the first decade or two, then it gets too corporate. "Food that built America" is a pretty good series about food entrepreneurs in American history.
VICE did an article on fentanyl production. Legal weed in the states cut into the Mexican cartels' weed marketshare, so they reduced their imports and pivoted into fentanyl which has 1/100th the cost to produce as heroin and is more addictive. They also increased their kidnapping and extortion rackets.
Change their frame-of-reference, its about opportunity cost. If they want to get good at guitar, piano, singing, skateboarding, climbing, French, drawing, painting, whatever -- the time is to develop those skills is during the teenage years when they have extra time -- then they can plug into videos about their chosen hobby/craft.
If you are going to do web development, you don't need to know too much about operating system internals. If you are going to be a kernel programmer then you don't need to know webpack and react. Reed Hoffman wanted to learn ASP so he built Linkedin to learn the stack. Find a project that motivates you, then learning/doing will fun and rewarding. Start working out if you don't already.
Why would they want that? Groups with strong ethnic identity (like the Japanese) want their lands to be inherited by their descendants; this is the default historical position. But atm the Japanese are going to zero with their low birthrate, so idk.
Maybe this exists, but blur images unless site is whitelisted. Then a person could read the news without bikini pics and Oscar dress pics, etc. UK papers are the worst.
It appears to me that free speech is being phased out and replaced with SafeSpeech. Its presented like this: "It is actually more free because safe spaces are where people are free-est to speak their minds; free from bullying, etc." fwiw, I find this trend abhorrent, but I can't stop it.
