I'm pretty sure it's a chinese distro with a lot of shilling behind it.

I don't trust it.

Consumerism.

Yeah, that movie is legit creepy as fuck.

It's a really good surreal kind of creepiness towards the end that I can definitely see having an impact on a kid. Stanley Kubrick was great.

None, but I saw Child's Play as a kid and it scared me for years afterwards.

I've been doing a lot of research into Judaism. They seem to encourage asking tough questions and taking the answers seriously, which is good.

After reading a bit of the Torah, it got me thinking, why aren't there any references to people who could not have been known to its followers at the time? No mention of East Asians or Native Americans. Did God just forget about them when he talked through Moses? Or he thought they weren't important enough to mention?

Then it got me thinking some more. What about science? Wouldn't it be effective to convince followers of legitimacy if a religion could accurately predict a scientific phenomenon before its followers have the means of discovering it? Say, "And God said, let there be bacteria! And then there was bacteria." But there is nothing like that. Anywhere, as far as I can tell. Among any religion.

I'm not a theologian and I'm always interested in learning more, so any insights would be helpful.

Edit: A lot of responses seem to be saying "people wouldn't have had a use for that knowledge at the time" seem to be parroting religious talking points without fully understanding their implications. Why would God only tell people what they would have a use for at the time? Why wouldn't he give them information that could expand the possibilities of what they were capable of? Why does it matter if people had a word for something at the time? Couldn't God just tell them new words for new things? If God was only telling them things that were relevant to them at the time, why didn't He say so? Also, how come he doesn't come back and tell us things that are relevant now, or at least mention that he isn't coming back?

It's about time, honestly.

Interesting. I've been using Wayland for the past few months and forgot I even made the switch.

That means it's ready.

Using Linux isn't something you need to defend towards others.

As long as something is comfortable for you, keep using it.

Your opinion sucks and isn't going to be enacted by most users.

People are angry about this?

I didn't even know he represented kindness.

No, but I contribute to it at a level that we all can participate in so I'm not part of the problem.

If you're implying that I have to go live off in the woods or something to criticize consumerism, then you're just looking for excuses to not consume less. You've been conditioned to believe it's "all or nothing," so any mitigation of your contribution doesn't matter.

[-] haloduder@thelemmy.club 1 points 1 week ago

I guess you don't know what consumerism means, or you're not willing to admit its drawbacks because you're a part of it.

It looks like the last verified contact with them has been in 2018. Recently a youtuber went there and tried to get their attention, but couldn't find them.

Is it possible they're not even still around? Maybe a disease found its way onto their island and took them out. It could have even been from the last visitor in 2018.

Thanks.

That seems like it would prevent tampering after a certain point, but it doesn't verify that the data hasn't been maliciously altered before the image is created.

Since anyone can put anything they want on their servers, it seems like a lot of evidence could be thrown out in court cases if access to that information is not strictly monitored and audited to make sure the owners aren't removing or adding data.

Does anyone know of industry-standard practices to ensure that data on servers is not being manipulated in a way to protect or harm users?
