Wouldn't it even itself out

Flax_vert ,

How good is it? I have a raspi5 and wonder where it's limit is

Flax_vert ,

What about email?

Flax_vert ,

Don't they honour deletion requests

Flax_vert ,

I think they'd legally have to as well if something violated GDPR

Flax_vert ,

Wasn't Google's original appeal the lack of clutter?

Flax_vert ,

I think stuff like this would be more appropriate for voice control devices, namely Google Assistant

Flax_vert ,

Ads are fine in the form of search results that are clearly marked as sponsored. The issue with ads are when they are manipulative, intrusive, obnoxious or have sketchy data collecting

Flax_vert ,

Exactly. As a Christian we should be caretakers of the earth because God saw it and it was good and made us to look after it

Flax_vert ,

Depends on the work. If you have customers using your products for a good cause, it's pretty rewarding. Also depends how you're treated.

Flax_vert ,

I'm sorry to hear that :( I hope you find something better

Flax_vert ,

Who made up that rule lol

Flax_vert ,

Even Belfast only allows access to the city centre for vehicles doing deliveries. It's not uncommon to see one, but I mean a single one generally in the centre of a capital city

Flax_vert ,

No, break the cycle by having kids and raising them properly. Cut your antinatalist BS.

Flax_vert ,

The cycle which keeps our species alive

Flax_vert ,

Just because you're miserable doesn't mean you have to bring the entirety of humanity down with you. Please get help, you have clearly been hurt. Whether it be therapy, counselling, or finding God. It's not okay to take it out on others to the point where you are telling people not to reproduce.

Flax_vert ,

How can you say something is morally wrong yet also claim God's not real? Don't you see how contradictory that is? We aren't in a terrible condition to have kids as well. It's not morally wrong to create another human being.

Flax_vert ,

So suddenly it becomes a joke 🤣 sure

Flax_vert ,

Being called an incel by the guy who complains about people giving birth really is something

Flax_vert ,

How much caterpillar soup is needed to be lost to kill it

Flax_vert ,

There was a folk song I remember when I was younger about the unicorns. Found a recording.

Flax_vert ,

Elaborate?

Flax_vert ,

You know Jesus answered this exact question?

‭Matthew 22:25-32 ESV‬

Now there were seven brothers among us. The first married and died, and having no offspring left his wife to his brother. So too the second and third, down to the seventh. After them all, the woman died. In the resurrection, therefore, of the seven, whose wife will she be? For they all had her.” But Jesus answered them, “You are wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. And as for the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was said to you by God: ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not God of the dead, but of the living.”

Flax_vert ,

Basically merc's final mention where you're so happy you don't need marriage. Marriage is an earthly thing

Flax_vert ,

In the UK your employer just does it for you

What to be aware of before opening port 25 on a postfix Raspberry Pi?

I have a raspberry pi running postfix. I Realised unless I open port 25 I absolutely cannot receive emails (I have 587 open and can send but not receive them). However I heard there are scaries online which someone could potentially send emails from your server without consent. I believe as well my ISP doesn't block port 25. Is...

Flax_vert OP ,

I've got a domain

Flax_vert OP ,

How can I have reliable email that I can control, then?

Flax_vert OP ,

Thank you so much! It just tested it for me

Flax_vert OP ,

What do you mean reserve DNS?

Flax_vert OP ,

🤣

Flax_vert OP ,

too late.

Flax_vert ,

Best reference yet.

Flax_vert ,

I'm the opposite. Rest on Saturday, housework on Sunday

Flax_vert ,

Anarchism wouldn't get that far in the first place lmao

Flax_vert ,

What is gab ai?

Flax_vert ,

I agree, seems like what it is from this lol. Especially the GPT-4 mentions

Flax_vert ,

Megachurches are the minority of churches though

Flax_vert ,

Lemmy has a weird hate-boner for Christianity. It's like a visceral toxic hatred. Sure it would make more sense for you to take from the top one percent in society to actually solve the problem, but that way you don't get to punish an entire religious group for their vocal minority 1% who squander wealth and strive for political power, using Jesus as nothing more than a stepping stool

Flax_vert ,

Yeah. I regularly attend multiple churches. There are a few bad eggs, sure, but 99% of people I talk to there are either lovely people or normal people. Same goes for workplaces as well. I don't see Churches as being worse than any other environment I've been in. But when assholes are Christians, they weaponise the Bible to justify being an asshole. If anything I think Christians in general should be more vocal about things happening in churches that are not okay, but there may be a concern of causing division in an otherwise wholesome atmosphere.

I have a close friend who converted to Christianity, and they said that a fault they observe in Christians can be that they're too nice and too vulnerable, to the point that people can get away with not very nice things.

I think Atheism gets a bad rap these days also. I'm sure most atheists are lovely people, but the people who make it known that they're atheists, or make it their whole personality, are not.

Flax_vert ,

Or if you're boozed up

Flax_vert ,

I never heard of someone rooting their phone due to a 12 year old on tiktok telling them to

Flax_vert ,

Probably the server room in a big company

Flax_vert ,

99% of self proclaimed Christians hate megachurches.

Anyway, I think with "all things are possible with God" really means if God consents to it, as Jesus said when praying: "Thy will be done"

Flax_vert ,

TIL.

Flax_vert ,

I think it isn't really to do with the money itself but with the mindset. If you're the type to dodge taxes and scam people, and love money above all, which is arguably what it takes to become rich, then you clearly aren't a Christian transformed by God.

Flax_vert ,

Consider all of the nations with Christians, and all within. You have large denominations like Roman Catholics who make up the largest portion of Christendom, a sizable amount of Orthodoxy and then protestants. Protestantism itself is divided into denominations. You have classical protestants which also rule out megachurches, such as the Anglicans/Episcopalians (Anglican communion forming the third largest Christian communion) Reformed/Presbyterians and Lutherans. Maybe a little sprinkling of Moravian and Methodist in there. Then you have evangelical Christianity with Baptists, non denominationals, some pentecostals. There's low church baptists who again would mostly be anti megachurch. Imagine your small rural congregation "me and my KJV" type.

Generally to get to the megachurches you need to go down the pentecostal/charismatic side of the non denominationals. Sure there's a sizable amount, but when you put all of Christianity in perspective, you can see it's a small slice.
