Hundreds of years ago, Christianity inspired some truly incredible music. Bach's BWV 63 (especially the Gardiner recording) is a miracle.

Contemporary Christian music, though, is probably the falling domino that ultimately led to the realization that my Christianity was just tribalism. Modern American Christian "culture" has no redeeming value, other than its lucrative redemption for fiat currency.

I do love visiting cathedrals, though.

Kotor, Montenegro is the most beautiful place I'd ever been to that I'd never heard of. The whole Aegean Sea is incredible.

Edit: Meant "Adriatic" Sea.

If you see someone go overboard, get someone else to start throwing stuff off the deck to where they are in the water (while you keep pointing at them). Makes for much easier locating by others, and a quicker rescue

As long as you have no oil, there's no reason to fear us.

Nah. Democrats protest, Republicans vote. Funny how one of those groups wields a grossly exaggerated amount of political power.

The corrupt GA GOP are going to remove Fani Willis. They've invented a committee specifically to do just that.

Jack Smith isn't going to be able to do any lasting damage. Everything about Trump is already known, and Trump's racist jug-hooting base is sticking with him. Findings in a trial will be meaningless for them.

Unless he actually gets sentenced to real prison - which he won't - nothing about this matters.

This is going to help everyone around Trump walk, because they can point to him taking full accountability, Meadows Eastman, Giuliani can get out of it. And Trump himself will never see any consequences either.

RICO case in Georgia is much more difficult, which is why the GOP down there have created a committee to remove any prosecutors they want. So, that's how that will get killed off.

How would that prevent you from being a conservative?

Old Man Yells At Cloud

Sounds like such a nice lady.

Red states are a luxury we can't afford anymore. They need to pull themselves up by their freedom bootstraps and start turning a profit, or the spigot turns off.

Which is why he became Secretary of Energy under Trump. Also I think he was kicked off Dancing with the Stars in one of the early rounds. Certainly makes him qualified to occupy the same chair as Steven Chu.

Have you seen a highway in Los Angeles during rush hour?

Only if you pay money to use their product yourself.

Wealth tax. 0.1%. The rich will see it as adding a .1 onto all of their investment expense ratios, and I don't give a shit.

If you Emerge, Gentoo would at very least tell you before you install something that it'll break as a result of dependency issues with a list of said dependencies, and offer to update those dependencies for you.

Portage really is an incredible package manager.

I think it's funny that so many Linux users talk about how locked down Windows is, when 90% of them live in an effective walled garden defined by their package manager, or other inborn restriction of their distro. I doubt that even 10% are compiling from source with any regularity.

Why do you need to wait for someone to repackage FF for you before you install it? Just go get it if you run Arch BTW, but you know the overwhelming majority of ArchBros really only know how to install it through Pacman.

Real Chads don't use a DE.

Me too! Well, technically Yellow Dog Linux, but that lasted all of two weeks.

I know Ubuntu has had that for a while, which means that others probably have as well.
