Agreed, the censorship comes from the original source, not the poster on Lemmy - and the original source is the one responsible for the engagement bait.

It’s deliberate, it’s just engagement bait.

I really want to watch that movie again now. Thanks for the quote!

Even if you’re a monk or a priest, you should prioritise your family.

I don’t remember watching either of these two movies so I have no skin in the game, but I love it when someone is this passionate about a controversial opinion like this.

Never understood how someone decided in the last 5 centuries that a book isn’t the word of God and hence should be removed.

Arbitrary decisions have been made for much longer than 5 centuries about which books are in and out of the bible, and how to change the text to suit the narrative and culture of the day

if there is a God how can a person understand it’s mind?

That’s kinda the point. It all comes down to what “feels right” for each person, not what’s proven to be true. How do we know any interpretation is correct, and we know what’s actually in “God’s mind”? For all we know, no interpretation is correct and we all have it wrong.

I’m with you on this. When we say “I stayed up all night”, you’re not saying you stayed up until midnight.

But it ain’t ever gonna change.

There’s no way to rebut the argument you’re trying to rebut without circular logic of “the bible is true because the bible says it’s true”.

If you start with the premise that Christianity is as true as Santa Claus until proven otherwise, nothing you said makes any sense.

To understand the bible, you need to understand the cultural context of the time it was written.

There are so many different interpretations of the bible, what’s important, what’s the deeper meaning, and what you can ignore. Your interpretation is clearly different to the parent poster.

For an omnipotent being, kinda strange way to get your message across isn’t it? Even the most devout followers can’t agree what it all means, let alone everyone else.

Personally, my biggest problem with the proton CEOs actions, is that he doubled down using official proton social media. This went well beyond a “personal opinion” and made this sound like a position the company held.

You’re linking to the wrong status page item, the outage was totally unrelated to that maintenance. If you look at cloudflare maintenance history, they do that exact type of maintenance all the time.

I don’t get it. I’m not seeing the same thing, and I can’t find any reference of anyone else reporting the same issue online either. Either this isn’t an accurate report, or it’s some very specific A/B testing. I can’t find any options in settings that mention this functionality either.

I think it’s valid to boycott Russian companies, or any companies that supports them. Justifying it to be the best search engine doesn’t necessarily make it right. And yet I still have a paid Kagi subscription, but I don’t blame people who don’t, and think their use of Yandex should be more obvious.

Agreed. I pay for Kagi, and find their search better than any other, and struggle when I’m forced to use another search engine temporarily.

I managed to find this from the official reddit account: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonVPN/comments/1oj8u5y/the_official_proton_vpn_commandline_interface_cli/

It’s “early access” still, but publicly available.

Agreed, AWS make pricing deliberately difficult to control.

Check out budget actions, you can set that to stop EC2s on certain thresholds. Not perfects but can help. Also if you can use parameter store instead of secrets manager, you can save a bunch of money there too.

I don’t get it. Is the joke that this looks undercooked? This looks perfectly normally cooked to me, is it an American thing?

Aussie wine and cheese is arguably even better, yet another reason to go with D.

Do you tell people you’re from America, or from a random state or town and not even mention the country. I’ve had never, ever had someone from America tell me they’re from America or USA when I’ve asked where they are from. And I’ve never, ever had anyone from any other country do the same. Which subconsciously reinforces biases, as much as I hate to admit it.
