I am just, slightly, concerned about this. If the Matrix protocol shits the bed entirely, then I'll be happy to wait for the next wave of innovators to solve this.

That may sound dismissive to some, but I've already lived through things like this happening.

Over thirty years I've seen so many tremendous leaps in telecommunications. I'm not too worried.

Congrats 🎉

As we get closer to the election, and more people start paying attention, that '53 out of 100' will be higher.

...I have no idea how you would even begin to resolve the issue.

For now, we must encourage all of the younger people to vote. The younger people are, understandably, frustrated by the current American political system. It can be changed with more participation over time. Doing nothing (not voting, etc.) just worsens the problem.

The far right GOP knows all of this and makes it difficult for anyone to vote. They use tactics such as gaslighting in order to cheat their way into office.

I've expressed this many many times to him over the years. I've said something like "I want to play games to have fun. If the game isn't fun for me, then I will not play it anymore".

I believe that he understands this. However, he just wanted so much to understand Elden Ring and beat it.

Personally, Elden Ring is NOT fun to play and that's why I don't play it.

I'm just astounded that my 8-10 year old son persevered so much to beat it.

You could reach out for help if you were running into problems. AskBeehaw would be an example for inquires. Also, there's nothing preventing anyone from asking for technical support at Beehaw's technology community which has the largest viewership on Beehaw.

It's not necessarily something that I 'love explaining to others'. However, academic biblical scholarship has been an interest and endeavor of mine for about thirty years. Luckily and thankfully, I've found my self in the center of this unique niche of interested parties with /r/AcademicBiblical and /r/AskBibleScholars.

Think about this for a moment. The biblical texts have had the most influence on western society, and arguably all other societies, for hundreds of years.

Wouldn't you want to know what these texts are saying?

They aren't saying what you think they are saying.

If you've had no experience with these texts, then you have many years of reading ahead of you.

It is incredibly daunting to know how little most people do not know about this subject. And, at the same time, shape our world based on misinterpretations and/or misunderstandings of this vast library of literature.

All of that needed to be said. Thank you.

I was a Trillian user as well.

I've been using a Discord bridge with Beeper for three years with no problems.
