Hell isn’t really in the Bible. Iirc most interpretations of hell come from revelations where the anti-Christ and the beast (along with all the wicked and unsaved) are thrown into the Lake of fire on judgement day by Christ. That’s it. There isn’t anything about different circles of hell, or eternal damnation (there’s a lot of debate about if the Lake of fire is instant annihilation, temporary torment to cleanse the soul, or permanent eternal torment)

Afaik it was largely created through some wild interpretations of the church in order to sell indulgences (get out of sin free cards) which funnily enough is how Gutenberg was allowed to keep printing. His new printing press was amazing at mass producing indulgences which were handwritten and quite lengthy. Now the church had a way to produce their “sin for free” tokens in bulk. If it weren’t for that Gutenberg might have been shut down for cutting in on the church’s monopoly on books.

Dante’s inferno also had a massive influence on the Christian interpretation of hell. Afaik it was also largely made up or “artistic license” was used to make hell into what it is in the book.

Edit: added clarity

Yeah and they don’t even fully cover the wire mesh most of the time so it rusts and your entire stucco wall falls off a few years later (out of warranty lol get fucked)

Oh my god I get to watch a smiting with my own eyes. The cycle is nearly complete!

1. God has rules

2. God’s rules have loopholes

3. God gets angry

4. Get smote, nerd!

5. Ok, new rules!

6. Return to step 1.

They will literally do it until the heat death of the universe or until they’re wiped out.

They make them out of literal cardboard now because drywall is too expensive. I wish I was joking. Look up cyfy on YouTube, he’s a home inspector in Arizona and some of the million dollar+ homes he inspects are actual temu quality shitholes from big name builders.

What a beautiful photograph! So much is happening without it being overwhelming. It feels so alive like it was just taken. Thanks for sharing!

Some of the brain-dead comments and/or ragebait on there makes me want to suggest they authenticate using kash’s website. “Lol you’re stupid you just don’t know what CloudFlare authentication looks like” better be bait…

In not a Chinese shill but realistically modern war is a competition of industrialized might. China would whoop the US in a slugfest (i.e. not nuclear exchange. Nobody wins that) because the US can’t produce at the rate the Chinese can.

China can mass produce sophisticated weapons… The US’ military industrial complex and incentive structures (cost + % billing) has created a giant cancerous tumor of an arm’s industry. It’s currently tooled for bullying and murdering brown people for profit, not fighting a near peer nation and changing that system takes years.

It won’t change as long as cost + % and corruption continue, which they will. If the US finds itself in a war with China it’ll have entirely the wrong arm’s industry for fighting them and they won’t have the grace of 1939-1941 to scale their domestic arms industry prior to a major conflict… There’s also the fact that the US is heavily deindustrialized now too compared to WWII… China is closer to the industrial heavyweight the US once was in 1941-45, but they have technological sophistication and a knowledge economy now too…

Patriot interceptor missiles are a decent example of what I mean. They cost millions to produce and take forever to make which is by design. They could be made faster and cheaper but that’s less profit. If the arm’s industry in the US were paid a lump sum and not “pump your costs as high as possible to get the highest cost+% you can” things would be different.

I was just thinking the same thing…

Yeah I buy used drives (prior to the AI boom) and mix the same specs from different manufacturers for that reason.

He’s flattering them with words they understand

If you get cheap large flash drives the thing that’s wrong with them is QLC memory, and the fact flash memory rots over time.

Bitrot is a thing no matter the medium it’s just what timescale we’re talking about. Blurays are the poor man’s LTO tape backups. M-disks were also good for a long time too. Very stable and high density.

However there is a way to make flash drives work for a backup solution. I would pair drives together in mirrors under ZFS. Maybe 4-6 drives in a pool, with 2-3 mirrors. That way you have error detection (ZFS checksums for every bit of data stored), and error correction (mirrored data across drives, along with the checksum to verify which copy is good).

It also allows you to run “ZFS scrub <pool>” to check everything once a month or so and detect corruption and fix it. ZFS can also identify a drive that’s failing from consistent errors.

Edit: if you don’t run Linux you could manage this using a raspberry pi 3 or 4 as the host. It could be a very low power and cheap NAS.

And there better be a way to settle greivances for essential jobs or they quickly hollow out. If you don’t, people don’t train for them or pursue them, and we damn well know they aren’t going to up the pay to make them more attractive.

But how will I spend 3 years making my 2D platformer thats as generic as possible except for one slight difference I implemented poorly?

You’re taking away all of the fun of posting my 2D platformer post mortem #204582910058 where I refuse to see reality and never understand why my game sucks or why it flopped!

Cave man mode. Save much token. Very easy. Get straight to point. Missing semicolon line 182.

We are idiots and we deserve it

That’s what I’m getting at but who gets the center square is decided by dice.

Soon I can algorithmically identify friend or foe by comparing their multidimensional political beliefs to my own (17, 89, 7, 32, 90, 72, 11, 3, 55, 23, 68, 99)

HOW!?
