And Toys R Us apparently.

The perfect proof to not trust this companies if you needed it.

I had never heard of mbin. I see it’s a fork of kbin. What does it do differently?

How would this prevent them from suing?

Personally, I think it’s most likely that he’s composed of many people. It’s a bunch of stories which all got attributed as one person, which isn’t uncommon. Personally, though I’m far from an expert, I think there wasn’t a singular Jesus figure who actually existed, but rather a story of a figure named Jesus that rose from stories about other events.

Like you said, it’s almost certain that something was happening around that time. In fact, there are many more Messiahs who were mostly forgotten. I just think it’s most likely that people told stories and those stories all merged together into another larger story, which then became the story of Jesus.

After reading that page, I strongly suspect that’s not him. It’s all based on statistical modeling, and it’s been heavily massaged. Even with that, they give it 1/600 odds (on the low end) of it being random chance, which those aren’t bad odds.

Apparently the inscriptions are partially illegible, so assuming it’s even correct their statistical model is based on the name Mariamne being Mary Magdelene (which is clearly not the name we remember her by) and being Jesus’s wife, Maria being the mother, and Jesus having a son, which we didn’t know about, named Judah, as well as a few other assumption that really do not feel like they should be making.

Even making a ton of assumptions, the odds are still not particularly convincing. It feels like something that can increase someone’s faith if they don’t question it, but if you examine it at all reveals how much people are reaching to prove what they already want to believe.

Well, that’s the question if you want to believe in Christianity.

It’s nearly universally accepted that he is a historical figure, though there is little to no evidence of that. The OP is asking why is that the case with so little evidence. They (presumably) aren’t asking for a religious reason, just as an interest in history. If you are Christian and asking this question you are well past the point of no return for your faith

More importantly, they’d have to stop the most sacred of Christian traditions: throwing a pigskin around while assaulting each other.

My understanding is “neighbor” is mostly a mistranslation. It’s really referring to people within your tribe. Don’t fuck with people who are in your group basically, in order to keep the peace. Outsiders are fair game.

QBitTorrent has a search built in. You have to add scripts for each torrent host, but once you add a bunch it makes it very easy to just search through that and find what you want. Finding a free stream you have to go through a bunch of shady sites trying to find one that works and is half decent quality.

Yeah, 64 bit handles almost all use cases we have. Sometimes we want double the precision (a double) or length (a long), but we can do that without being 128-bit. It’s harder to do half. Sure, it’d be slightly faster for some things, but it’s not significant.

What specifically is breaking and what are you doing with the system?

Installing it and using it like normal shouldn’t break anything, but it is very easy to break things if you start tinkering. There are very few guardrails.

Some of it, yeah. Obviously some is required. Not the amount that it has though.

It is not the most expensive for any intrinsic reason. It’s not necessarily that complex to operate. It’s expensive because bureaucracy that has been strapped to it to make switching to it harder, which was designed to keep dirty energy in demand longer. It is the safest power source we have available (including renewables). There’s no reason it’s so expensive except to attempt to kill it.

I love the “as many of us know, Rep Friske is always exercising his 2nd Amendment right,” as if to somehow excuse an assault with a deadly weapon.

As a Virginian, I hadn’t subscribed to a VPN until our legislators decided to pull this shit.

I can recommend syncthing. If it’s a file you want to keep updated between the two devices, it’s great and easy to set up. I use it for my password manager database.

KDE Connect works even on Windows supposedly. I’ve had great experience with it on Ubuntu, Fedora, and Garuda.

If you’re looking for a new home, I’ve enjoyed Lemmy.zip. I think it’s on the smaller side, but I prefer that to everyone being on a few instances.
