Seriously, this is where we're at? Someone says massacres are bad and that's too much? Peace isn't made through more violence, peace is made through the hardest work no one wants to do. It's a lot easier to say kill them all than it is to do the work to build peace.

That is exactly the type of attitude which has gotten them into the situation they're in and in my opinion you need to check yourself. I do not approve of the IDF and I absolutely believe Palestinians are being subjected to collective punishment. That all said, massacres just cause more massacres and purging people just radicalizes the ones who are left. I don't know how to solve the Israel - Palestine war/genocide but you don't either. You advocating for more violence is one pointless and two wrong.

Never send a Major to do a (lieutenant) Commander's job.

I get what you're saying, but for my daily protest comment against Reddit; there is no such thing as a terrorist tool. Tools aren't good or bad, but they can be used for good or bad. This has been another comment which added nothing to the conversation. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

I imagine that for a very small minority of the population, that's actually their kink. Writing sexually explicit and politically suspect text messages in order to force some unwitting federal employee to participate in some deranged message-au-trois. The world is filled with all kinds of people.

Huh, I was unaware of this church. I hope you realize that we were role playing characters from a table top board game gone super franchise titled Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000. As far as I'm aware, the Warhammer franchise is not associated in any way with the Columbus, Ohio Christian Xenos Church. That's why I included terms like Adeptus Mechanics which is pulled directly from the franchise.

Your faith is lacking slag. The God Emperor of All Mankind is already here leading Mankind to glory over the xenos and has been for millennia. He has chosen to not reveal himself to us yet. Accelerating our approach to the age of strife is blasphemy. What if we build the black hole cannons too early and they've degraded too much when the Adeptus Mechanicus excavate them. Have faith in the God Emperor's plan slag and rejoice in your duty.

(Warhammer 40k for anyone who's going wtf)

It was a cousin's wedding. Fortunately I had two cards, filled the first and the second one bit the dust. The ceremony survived but most of the reception pictures are lost. Not the worst case but they were not happy with me. Mem cards were a lot smaller back then.

Would have been nice at the time, but unfortunately wasn't affordable yet.

There's nothing quite as frustrating as loosing photos and footage before it's been ingested. Always use name brand media and always duplicate it asap. Ask me how I know.

Rip her out, root and stem. (Seriously though, the low level labourer isn't responsible.)

So this is my setup, and it's pretty cost effective. I have two 2Tb HDDs that are striped and one 500Gb SSD that's alone. The games I play the most live on my SSD, any games I'm not really playing live on the HDD. Then I just move my games from one to another. I didn't even have the second HDD for the longest time. I don't bother with using the SSD as a cache anymore. There is no advantage in gameplay to striping a game, however updates and moves are faster.

I'm just waiting on pope John Paul George, then we just gotta tack on Ringo somehow and we've got The Beatles back!

You like, believe that you can though man. That's like belief is fact, man. /S

After all that, a little holy water in the right places will still stop the magic.

No you can't go home again, but you can make a new home.

In no way, shape, or form am I an expert in martial arts or combat. I would imagine however it depends on the situation. An army with spears and an individual with a spear are two very different things. Armys equipped with swords vs spears, spears win. Individuals fighting with a sword and a spear probably comes down to individual skill more than the specific weapon.

There's a story Mr. Rogers used to tell, "When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping." That's what you need to do, look for the helpers, which for adults and politics means look for the grass roots organizers. Go ask the people putting in the leg work how you can help. Yeah alone you are powerless but in a group you become powerful, find allies.

I get that the picture is more art than an actual representation of anything. With that said even as art The Matrix in my opinion doesn't really fit there. Like it's entirely within the bounds of The Handmaid's Tale so keeping with the Ven Diagram aesthetic with artistic license it means that The Matrix is most like The Handmaid's tale, which isn't not. The Handmaid's Tale is a feminist story about the domination of women in society, The Matrix is a philosophical exploration of the questions what is real and do we have free choice.

Maybe the argument could be made they're both about choice but that feels hollow. Maybe put The Hunger Games there I'm definitely over thinking this.

A warning about Framework, they're on the bleeding edge of modular laptop design (not hardware). So while they may shift laptop design entirely, the bleeding edge always cuts. I don't know anyone with a Framework laptop and if you're the first person you know IRL to have one be prepared for unexpected issues. I really hope the idea takes off but I don't envy the first adopters.
