  • It's been great for the past 10 years.

  • Definitely looks like it lived a full life.

  • I kind of assume a display like this is more for the curious than the closeted.

  • It is a bit annoying, though "organically produced" is defined exhaustively on the website.

  • 5 or 6 years ago the popular opinion on Reddit wasn't all that negative towards Musk.

  • Maybe it's an art installation titled "Progress"

  • It flows off the tongue a lot better too.

  • PCap is just a packet capture. "Closed" in this context just means the connection is no longer currently active.

  • The app in the screenshot is just capturing packets. The list shown are connections made during the capture and closed just means the connection is not currently active.

    That said, I downloaded Ally, ran that same packet capture but never saw anything sent to Facebook. I got to the login screen just fine.

  • Correct. Closed here just means the connection isn't ongoing.

  • That's awful. For a long time they were the only ones offering over 100m in my area, I hated the asymmetrical speeds but at least the service was reliable. Jumped ship as soon as fiber came to the area.

  • The journey went: disappointment with God, angry at God, apathetic, agnostic, then atheist. I considered myself agnostic for a long time but it always felt a bit like a compromise for me, like it's more palatable to think "Oh, I just don't know one way or another" over seeing god as a stopgap for holes in knowledge.

    Rather than the approach of attributing less and less to the divine over time, I decided to attribute nothing and go from there.

    Saying that one can't disprove god's existence feels the same to me as saying a watermelon is blue inside until it's observed.

    Thanks for your perspective!

  • I grew up extremely conservative christian (homeschooled, no tv, women don't work outside the house) and was taught that anything other than married man and women was evil.

    The thing is we were also taught critical thinking and logic albeit it was to compare "new teachings" against the bible. My parents always said since the bible is true [sic] it would stand up to any scrutiny. They thankfully never learned the lesson most christian leaders have that Christianity needs to be mandated for it to be effective. Obviously the bible did not hold up to logic and I'm now a proud atheist and in the process of healing.

  • Only looking at the collapsed post I can see why they might think it was about Threads.

  • I'm sure that's not true.

  • Motives aside, the point is one account won't always get you everywhere. Doing a little research before picking a home instance can't hurt.
