@CM30 This was a nice little part of my childhood :)

@cjwatson @qurlyjoe Deuteronomy 15:1-11 was directed at the Israelites, yes. The Old Testament law was just the law of the ancient Israelites, but due to who Christians believe created the Bible, when there's something universal in the Old Testament, we'll continue to follow it.

@cjwatson @qurlyjoe Matthew 6:12: "and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors." (translation: ESV).
This is part of the well-known example prayer by Jesus, "the Lord's prayer". On giving it a read (again) I think it is pretty clear that it is in no way talking about money owed.

@evan I dunno, "Northwest" just sounds happy ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

@MattTheQuick I wonder if I can get an old Barnes & Noble Nook to run ....

@apps I was seeing "%s" show up in some profiles' menus when viewing a profile after using the "GPS" button. Is this related? It did not cause a crash, but I have a video if you want it.

2009, not 2019, lol. Would edit it if social.librem.one kept up-to-date.

@evan @acroll Perhaps using an alternative space character for AI would be better than using alternative letter/etc. characters. That way, programs, spellcheckers, etc. don't need to know a bunch of alternative characters, and only need to know about the space character. And spaces are used in virtually all languages AFAIK

Going to share a few more up-close shots of the new Mastodon merch! I'm happy that we got to incorporate some Mastodon history in the designs. Mind you there's only going to be 250 of each at launch!

@Hyper@discuss.smash.today Sheik dragdowns are always sick ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘‰

Gnome is "rethinking window management". Yet again, yes. I like the actual behavior, but it's always interesting to see new ideas. blogs.gnome.org/tbernard/2023/

@qurlyjoe The verse about forgiving everyone was literal too. I am around a lot of Christians and I have never heard anyone claim that forgiving people was just a metaphor.

(You said forgiving everyone's *debt*, though... could you share a verse reference?)

@davidrevoy I was thinking this was a Majora's Mask reference ๐Ÿ˜„
