Broke mine last year, took a surgery and 6 months of physical therapy to get close to normal. I also couldn’t sleep for a month, every little movement would hurt. Broke it by wrecking on my bike

I owe a debt of gratitude to Gene and the entire crew. I was doubting my religion, and felt like I was losing my moral compass in the process. I was asking myself what type of person I wanted to be. The values that TNG showed me helped me in the 10 years since — being open to other cultures and their beliefs (Half a Life), to hold truth above others, and nothing can break that (Chain of Command), and to live my life more open, honestly, and fully (Inner Light)

I condemn false prophets, I condemn the effort to take away the power of rational decision, to drain people of their free will–and a hell of a lot of money in the bargain. Religions vary in their degree of idiocy, but I reject them all. For most people, religion is nothing more than a substitute for a malfunctioning brain. -Gene Roddenberry

That’s the idea. Helps you not become a dopamine addicted mess.

Holy shit that takes me back

I could barely remember too, then I took an arrow to the knee!

Have you used TreeStyleTab? I’m wondering how it compares with Sidebery

I regularly bisect commits in the range of 200k (on the low end) for finding causes of bugs. It takes me minutes. Pretty crazy

True dat

This is a very simplistic take on a very complex situation. I have friends in Tel Aviv, I’ve visited their homes. Some were raised very orthodox jew in Jerusalem, didn’t even have internet most of their lives. I’ve been to the Western Wall and seen the Jewish people praying, while the Muslims watch outside the gate (they each have their own time they can go in).

Talking with all my friends, the answer is always “it’s complicated”. It’s only religion so far as “we want to occupy the same space”. It kickstarted it, but that could have been anything – oil, water, ports, whatever. But since it turned to land, it became very politically motivated. Who can powerful countries ally with for key tactical military presence? For the people living there, how can I feel more safe?

I’m kind of rambling, but there’s way too much to talk about in just a comment. But yea, the answer is that it’s very complicated.

This isn’t about religion, at least not anymore. Palestinians have been oppressed by Israelis because they want the land. Palestinians want Israel dead because they’ve been oppressed and marginalized.

Hey man, it provided value to my life… its a fun game, i play it quite a bit. Plus half of that was for my kid, he would ask for vbucks every birthday and Christmas for years.

I spent about $600 with epic. All of that was on fortnite skins. None of it on games.

Its a war I don’t know what the fuck you want

I got temp banned from lemmy.ml for saying that. Basically said “except Ukraine didn’t attack Russia first”, then got the banhammer. A quick Google on their point (cant even remember what it was) and I knew it was bullshit. I blocked lemmy.ml right after

Did you see the early days, or even as reddit was “maturing”? Shit went down every other day

Homeboy went to Taylor Swift and was upset it wasn’t like it used to be

The optimist in me thinks those 83 want them to have a seat so they can keep conversation open and help them be more self aware on what they are doing

Well, we definitely didn’t give them the option to keep their homes that they got kicked out of

Don’t worry, I understood you had a question and wasn’t sure why you were downvoted. Seriously just don’t worry about the downvotes, it’s 2023 there’s going to be snark on the internet
