- Comment on Anon looks into cults 4 days ago:
As a Catholic by baptism and family tradition I do sometimes find Christianity a bit outdated, but I still think it’s capable of renewing.
I don’t really have time to go to church nowadays but for example when I last got to go at Easter the priest was a Russophile of all things (this happened in Hungary) and he very much made that part of his speech. Something about the Russians doing The Good Lord’s job in Ukraine, just as they did back in WWII. I’m not even kidding.
Then again when I got to regularly go to the youth service a few years back it was basically just singing to the guitar band and looking at the Bible which was really fun, the priest was very educated and seemingly didn’t have any hateful opinions, which is sadly more than you can expect from most of the clergy nowadays.
So yes TL;DR Christianity can be very fun and inclusive without acting like a cult, but the people who make up the Christian community come in all shapes and forms and sadly most of them aren’t people you would want to spend much time with, and that includes some of the priests as well whose job it should be to make people more friendly in my opinion.
Well at least these are my experiences but I haven’t ever been an integral part of any Christian Club or something like that.

I didn’t intend to do that at all. The proverb I had in mind was “birds of a feather flock together”. It doesn’t mean he deserved it but I do think people who date people who would do this to them are probably not much better either. Also he wrote this on 4chan which is again, not a complete footprint of his personality but certainly a testament to his character.

I used to watch them, for me the content has gotten a bit boring, but they still occasionally upload some interesting stuff. Also I used to listen to their podcast every week and it’s still one of my favorites, I just don’t get to listen to podcasts as much.
As for their controversies I think they’ve handled them well, but we don’t have to agree on that.
- Comment on linus tech tip 1 week ago:
I’d argue with calling him software illiterate, I think as a first time linux user, using pop_os! which was kind of obscure back then (even is now if you ask me), he should have been some computer mage not to run into some similar problem eventually. I mean steam uninstalling the desktop? Sure if you know linux you will have several clues that this is about to happen, but someone coming from windows who doesn’t even know yet what a desktop environment on linux is or how it operates can’t be expected to understand instantly. When I came over to linux I certainly didn’t.
I think Linus is like average windows poweruser level. If he never touched the software before, he won’t magically understand it, but if he manages to fuck up bad, that means most other people would have too. I guess it’s all just a question of where you draw the line for software illiteracy. For me it’s having to explain someone how to take a screenshot or log into Facebook (I love my Grandpa by the way).
