Computers are a democratizing force of course they’re trying to limit access to them

I lost it at “Don’t give me hope bro”

Isn’t the problem that the question is impossible to answer.

“Consciousness is more than language, use language to describe it fully. “

I’d just as silly as

“Draw the entire light spectrum even the parts we can’t see, here are some crayons”

Sorry I’m high

You should probably watch willow. It’s not terrible. Val kilmer with a sword.

For his name I say data but when talking about data I say data but when I say database I say data and when I watch 1986’s Willow with Warwick Davis I say data

Good software is abstracted and free.

Applying it to a business effectively is where the money gets made ethically.

Contribute to the projects you use!

Can you prove free will exists?

There’s that gobbledygook

Can you prove there’s not a teapot floating between mars and Jupiter? That doesn’t matter. It has nothing to do with what I’m talking about.

Let’s say for example free will doesn’t exist and a god named billy the nose picker created us to do exactly what we do all under the illusion of free will.

Does it make argument that “belief” in Billy the nose picker is the sign of a deranged person any weaker?

NO!

Without free will we’re doing what we should so EVERY QUESTION IS MOOT

Take that gobbledygook diversion tactic out of here it’s baloney moon man talk.

Gobbledygook. Like a youth pastor. Or any religious leader when a child asks a question so dangerous that even considering it would shatter your faith, free will or not.

GOBBLEDYGOOK

Mental illness is not your fault. It is your responsibility, however.

Anyone who “believes” in things that are not provable cannot be trusted.

“Belief” is mental illness

Why are religious apologists always throwing gobbledygook around and acting like it’s logic?

Why is everything a religious apologist shows as explaining how the religion “really works” actually has nothing to do with what the religions preach?

(Spoiler: it’s an impossible position to defend)

Christians don’t teach people that they are god.

What religion works the way you described?

None of them. Yikes.

“God” is what idiots claim is behind everything good but not bad.

It’s inane. Quit pretending otherwise it’s disingenuous and illogical on top of it.

Religious people are superstitious fools. They cannot be trusted. They will be orthodox when it suits them and drop all the rules when it suits them.

Because it’s made up bullshit yo be used as a weapon against other people and deep down they know it’s phony. Which is why they drop all belief when they want to.

Which iPhone isn’t overpriced lol

I like librem 5 for the features but it is expensive.

I like pinephone for the price.

I have not chosen yet.

I am between purism Librem 5 (expensive) and pinephone (cheap)

I am leaning to pinephone since it’s so cheap if I hate it it won’t ruin me

It’s a class war.

Schumer just wants to make sure his class wins.

Anyone convinced he’s on the side of working schmucks deserves what is happening

But there’s no place for theism if you value evidence

So weird that Christians love ideas like this when it comes to capitalism but not their own personal behavior.

There’s a word for it

Hypocrisy? Hypocrite? Infidel?

No that’s not it.

I think it’s just “Christian”

I love modern cli Linux distros.

I am about to plunge into desktop Linux this year.

Linux phone, pc and tablets only for me from now on

Death to oligarch business!

All my homies who were into it were like “everything is free you just have to compile it yourself”

And I was like “sounds good but I cannot”

Then all the cool distros got mature and feature laden.

If you were a competent computer scientist it was rad.

If you were a dummy like me who just wanted to play star craft and doom you wasted a lot of time and ended up reinstalling windows.

They used to be preparing to abandon Ukraine

They still do but they used to too

The first six had been made into a series on Amazon prime. (More or less)

The last 3 would be a huge challenge to do as a tv show.

Without spoiling it I cannot explain why

It’s time to remove billionaires from our ecosystem.

Tax them until they don’t exist.

Or: let their bodyguards divvy up their stuff amongst themselves.

Fielders choice!
