It’s an interactive checklist.

People hate their neighbors and have family feuds.

Wouldn’t selective disabling of JavaScript make fingerprinting easier? Your block and white list are likely to be unique.

Disabling JavaScript entirely is another data point for fingerprinting. Only a tiny fraction of users do it.

Besides, without JavaScript most websites are not functional anymore. Those that are are likely not tracking you much in the first place.

How do you prove they’re doing it?

How would that even be enforced?

Because all Africans look the same? Africans can hate and kill each other just fine. People have forgotten about the Hutu/Tutsi genocide with a million plus dead apparently. That story is still ongoing and currently heating up again with the M23 rebels taking territory in Congo.

People with the same skin color and almost indistinguishable physical features have hated and murdered each other since the dawn of time. Look at the millennia of warfare, hate butchery, and slavery in the Middle East, Europe, Asia, Africa, Oceania, pretty much everywhere.

Usually people have conflicts with their neighbors, not people from the other side of the globe.

Convenience. Most people reads book once, if they finish it at all.

Why don’t you use library genesis or Anna‘s archive?

In Christianity it typically exists. The support for it in scripture isn’t very strong though.

Hell is arguing about the existence of hell on Lemmy, I guess.

While forgiveness is good, I’m not sure forgiving all sin just for following Jesus is so great.

It’s literally thoughts are more important than acts. I’m not convinced.

Matthew 13:42

37 He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one, 39 and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.

40 “As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. 42 They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Yes, SQLite is the most well known and likely biggest project using it.

I have used it for smaller projects and found it quite refreshing and useable

If you’re not stuck on git, give fossil a try. It’s a distributed source code version control with an integrated bug tracker, wiki, forum, and more. All that in in one 3 MB sized binary.

It can even mirror to GitHub and export/import git repositories.

It’s very easy to host yourself.

Self hosting git repos can be super minimal. If you don’t have a lot of users or repos, just use ssh. Hell you can host a repo on a local SMB network share eben.

Programming languages come with their own niches, tools, culture, and history. Gradle has lots of verbosity, complexity, and so on. It’s a build system and a dependency manager in one. Other languages separate these duties.

A cultural preference for tools written in specific languages or available for specific platforms exists as well. Lots of C/C++ programmers dislike everything Java. They will cite performance and philosophy. They ask why should they install and manage JVM versions and installs for a task they can do with a make file, a shell script, and Conan/vcpkg.

Not even all Java folks use gradle. maven and ant ant are still around and I’ve seen someone write Java build tasks using rake.

Driving a cyber truck is sure to get you some attention. That’s valuable to some people.

It has a bold futuristic exterior design and looks.

A more fractured internet is coming. Posting sources will be forbidden. Discourse will become more polarized, disconnected, and extreme.

Most of these Reddit bans on Twitter are also half assed. They still allow screenshots of Twitter posts. That means the content is still spread, and Twitter remains relevant.

Lots of these subreddits don’t even get a lot of Twitter links in the first place. Like for lotrmemes it makes zero difference.

That said, Musk and Twitter suck. I have deleted my Twitter account three years ago.

However there still is some information, where Twitter is a good source.
