The protestant reformation didn't do that. In fact, it was the opposite. It was based on the Bible over everything and shedding the idea of a pope who can claim "the rules are whatever I want them to be personally"

Fair enough. I just don't want to contribute to their self destruction.

That's the point. So they cannot sell the food for drug/alcohol money

[-] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 4 hours ago

There are plenty of charities that provide food though, so you can give to them or just buy the person food

I'm going to start calling myself "muslim" then, as "muslim" means "one who submits to God"

The alcohol problem is what's destroying their life

[-] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 5 hours ago

Yeah. If you have the time you could perhaps get a gift card which cannot be spent on alcohol, but even then they might sell it. The most you can really do is give them opened food

Email in itself is decentralised. You can set up your own email server and send and receive from it. However, your emails will be often flagged as spam unless you perform some form of black magic and allegedly, you are more vulnerable to spam (although I have been running my own email for months now that's on the open web and hasn't been spammed). Some hosts like Hetzner and various ISPs don't allow you to open the ports needed for email, at least without giving them a ring and explaining why you need it.

He also called me a "fucking asshole" as well which wasn't very pleasant. Basically he made an appointment for me to come to see him, notification of it was sent in the post as a footnote of a larger letter which didn't arrive until 2 days after.

I think his wife did. He radiated big "divorced man" energy

I think recommendation algorithms and advertising are separate things, however think with defaults and when it comes to what specific data is collected, where do you draw the line? Absolutely no recommendations at all based on an algorithm? Would you say using your 'like' history to recommend you more videos is okay? What about watch history, or save history?

Same question can also be asked about where you draw the line on advertising. Just say Youtube showed ads purely based on your video like history, would that be creepy?

I think we can all draw the line at location history, how long you linger on a post, etc. I'd like to know your thoughts on where you'd draw the line for both advertising and content recommendations. (This is two questions)

Sorry that this post is horribly formatted. I'm tired, acoustic and had a shower thought 😝

Apparently the artist is a nazi by the way which I didn't realise when posting this.

I have a raspberry pi running postfix. I Realised unless I open port 25 I absolutely cannot receive emails (I have 587 open and can send but not receive them). However I heard there are scaries online which someone could potentially send emails from your server without consent. I believe as well my ISP doesn't block port 25. Is there anything I should do right now before opening port 25, or should everything be safe enough?

I was looking through the Minecraft wiki and found an old texture for sandstone added in JE 1.2

I thought it looked similar to the Breeze mob which is coming in 1.21

It's likely just a coincidence. But very cool. The texture never made it into the final game unfortunately.

I keep seeing the same names popping up. I think it's rather cute!
