Atheism Pamphlet (archive.org)
submitted 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Found this pamphlet in my mailbox this morning. I pretty much agree with it and I think I'll keep it for the next time Jehovah's Witnesses decide to show up way too early in the morning.

Edit: I linked the digital mirror that was printed on the back of the pamphlet. Also, it's CC0 which I think is cool

What's with these headlines? What's next? "How CO₂ may be influencing climate change"?

We've known this for more than 50 years. If policy makers won't start making fossil fuels adequately expensive (which they won't), nothing will change.

Mastodon, Kbin, Lemmy and such are "compatible".

Here's an example of how to do it:

Definitely. I got a T470s that had barely been used for business purposes on eBay for 100€. It's a great machine. Lots of I/O, great IPS touchscreen, great backlit keyboard, great trackpad, great build quality, awesome form factor, good battery life (about 6-8 hours). If you need a cheap laptop, get a used ThinkPad. They're the best bang for the buck imo

I really don't think it matters what she tasted like. She's dead, leave her be

The bootloader is open so you could throw Fairphone's Android on there no problem. I think they provide the files for that (didn't check so don't know for sure)

Do you mean —? That's Alt + Minus

They actually sorta kinda have… a LOT. The whole transition to being farmers and stuff? Not only that, though, lots of stuff has been going on in and around our nuclei.

It's not uncommon for medical procedures to hurt btw. An episiotomy is a surgery, though, and where I'm from it's always done with anesthesia. Could be a US thing to do it without. It's also not a "terrible thing" but a sometimes necessary procedure that can greatly benefit a mother and child when giving birth

Edit: Just to be clear, though: There is definitely loads of stuff to criticize about gynecological procedures.

Edit 2: Also, calling out an episiotomy like that is just unreasonable imo

True and also just saw the no Velcro request. The inside of the backpack is all Velcro for the divisors

Sorry but a word processor that doesn't trigger a 9 second laggy animation with every button press is just simply unusable

So, recently I was talking to a friend and somehow we got to talking about religion and stuff. When I complained that religion is often put on a huge pedestal and that it's really just a glorified opinion and should be subject to the same criticism as any other opinion, they told me that that was a really hot take.

According to them, belief and religion is more than just an opinion since it's such a big part of people's lives. I countered that opinions are also big parts of people's lives and personalities. I mean, a huge chunk of your personality is based on your opinions, right?

We agreed to disagree but I kept thinking about it. I don't get why religion shouldn't just be treated like any other opinion just because people tend to cling to it. I get that ~~it~~ people are emotionally invested but that's not just the case with religion but other opinions too. I would appreciate your thoughts to help me understand better, is it really a hot take?

 

I'm sorry if this isn't the place to ask this, I also asked over at [email protected].

So what I want to do is this: Two RasPis are at different locations. They're on different networks but have internet access. Pressing a button on one of the Pis turns on an LED over at the other Pi via GPIO. How can I make the communication work? My first thought was Telegram bots as I'm familiar with those for notifications but you can't have Telegram bots communicate with each other, sadly. Is there a good (and secure) solution to this? Preferably using Python code and without continuous costs like server hosting, etc?

Thanks!
