prole,

By giving a big tip you are just telling the employer “Don’t worry about paying your employees a living wage. I got you fam.”

And what’s the alternative? Giving them nothing and telling yourself that it’s on them?

Yeah no thanks. I hate tipping culture as much as the next guy, but this isn’t how you change that.

Mary Magdalene. It’s never explicitly stated in the canonical Bible (as if that means anything), but they were very close.

True. If only the was more than one story from his life between being a child, and being in his 30s… Oh well I guess we’ll just have to assume he lived as a monk and denied himself of anything pleasurable 🙄

Though I recently learned that there is a book about it, it’s just that it wasn’t chosen to be “canonical,” and therefore means you can ignore it completely? Curiously, Jesus does some really fucked up things in that book, including showing off his powers, and killing people just to bring them back to life. The Infancy Gospel of Thomas is the book btw.

Who gets to decide that book isn’t true but the rest are?

When were Matthew, Mark, Luke and John written?

Here, let me save you a quick Google:

The Gospel of Mark probably dates from c. AD 66–70, Matthew and Luke around AD 85–90, and John AD 90–110. Despite the traditional ascriptions, all four are anonymous and most scholars agree that none were written by eyewitnesses.

Oh look at that.

after Jesus had already left Earth

Lol ok bud. Whatever delusion makes you happy.

prole,

Imagine using such a piss poor method of finding truth for literally anything in your life besides religion.

Would you consider me delusional if I told you that I have an invisible dragon in my garage, and that he’s died several times, and has returned to Earth after each time?

I think mm/dd/yyyy is better than dd/mm/yyyy, because you can sort by the first number and the dates will be in chronological order (though I agree with the below comment that YYYY MM DD is the best).

Every now and then I see threads like this on lemmy where people are getting downvoted into negatives despite being objectively correct about something (and the wrong info being upvoted). I think there may be a lot of very young, inexperienced, naive, and gullible children here. At least I hope they’re children.

All these people saying “use this or use that distro instead” is why Windows users don’t go into Linux. Ubuntu is a solid choice for beginners

You literally did the thing you’re decrying in the very next sentence.

“The problem is everyone telling Windows users which distro to use. Which is why I’m telling them they should just use Ubuntu.”

Exterminate all rational thought. That is the conclusion I have come to.

If Barry Lyndon was any indication, he would have def gotten the natural light spot on.

Kind of a boring movie, but goddamn is it gorgeous.

prole,

I look forward to the class action suit, and the $14 check I’ll get in the mail.

That argument might fly in the EU, but in the current US political climate? Not so sure. Hopefully they’ll keep making laws with actual teeth to drag these multinational corporations to change things that may lower their bottom line

prole,

Reminds me of PBF

The problem was doing the dishes. Just let them pile up, it’ll be fine.

Side note though: Work/life balance for the win. I get paid slightly less than others in my field, but I also work ~40 hours a week, and never take work home with me. It’s wonderful.

prole,

Lol… At this point, they probably wouldn’t need to be if humans weren’t so awful and selfish.

Steam Deck is great for this. Especially since you can suspend mid-game like a Nintendo Switch. No down time to select a game, wait for it to load, etc., if you don’t want that.

Great for quick sessions if you only have small bursts of time.

prole,

Question for anyone who’s got one of these things: would it be practical to like keep it in a cabinet, and pull it out when you want to use it, then put it back when you’re done? Not much counter space here… Also, someone mentioned about not needing a water hookup and just pouring water in. How difficult is it to drain those ones? I imagine if one were to try to store it between uses, you’d want it completely dry before putting away…

prole,

We can’t. It’s too late.

prole, (edited )

Damn, 5 more hours a week made that much of a difference? I’m also on a 4-day work schedule that is hybrid WFH which I forgot to mention. Having that extra weekday is clutch for things you can’t do on weekends.

I’ll gladly pay those union dues, because it wouldn’t be like this without our collective bargaining power.

prole,

That’s when you vote in new leadership.

But of course. People will people.

prole,

From the thumbnail, I was thinking the logo from the fireworks

I'm currently downloading a show that is on a service to which I subscribe

I have a Galaxy Tab S7 and for a trip to Spain I downloaded some stuff to watch on the flight. When I got on the plane none of the stuff downloaded on Disney+ would play. Maybe an issue with downloading to the SD card? I don’t know, but regardless Disney offers SD card as a download destination so they should make sure it is...

prole,

Yes, which was the point of my comment. A significant number of people have no fucking idea that they need a different DVD player to watch their 4k DVD in 4k.

prole, (edited )

You just weren’t clear in your original comment. It was mostly for other people who may have been reading the thread to clarify that when you say your streaming is as good or better than their “Blu rays” (no specification that they were 4k), that you’re comparing apples to apples. That you weren’t just telling people that your 4k streaming is better than their 1080p Blu rays (again, no specification there and I know tons of people aren’t aware there is a difference), because no shit it is.

I’m not sure why that set you off so much, but I think you need to take it down a notch.

Go back and read the edit I just made to the original comment since it was so confusing to you.
