@Aslanmane Oh, I'm talking about *before* marriage. Once you're married, it would (should) take something MUCH, much bigger to part the two.

@Aslanmane I doubt that a Protestant+Catholic marriage would be a good idea. Especially with children — how could you raise them and train them in Jesus, together? Every other Sunday go to Catholic mass, every other Sunday go to a Protestant service? What about the Apocrypha? Tell them it might be true ...? do you teach it or not?

@indie1337@vivaldi.net Well, if everyone is special, then no one is normal.

@indie1337@vivaldi.net Thinking about what happens with apples in pies, I could see apples being good on pizza.

@zomda Looks like he or she is playing with something dangling above :)

I got less than 3 hours of sleep, and today marks the first day I drank non-decaf in college.

I feel awake and not awake at the same time.

@indie1337@vivaldi.net Ah, you should have had an option for just drinking it cold :)

@RevEricBurrowsStone Hello, white western Christian here. Homosexuality is wrong, as the Bible clearly states.
The white western Christians whom I know believe that homosexuality is wrong, too (or the large majority of them). While stereotypes can be fine and useful, rash ones are not. Please :/

@array having the coveted "just works" property and staying out of the way - these things are what make me keep on coming back to it. Indeed.

@array Huh, interesting. Thanks!
Do you know if gnome-shell is modular, or is it only modified via extensions?

When it comes to customizing my system & DE, GNOME has always been a big hang-up.

@array GNOME, modular? From using it, I got the impression that it was more modular than it appeared, but I could never quite understand it the way I could KDE.
I'm really curious, how did you mix and match stuff with Gnome, and is there any decent documentation for its architecture?

"Cool" is "normal" executed so well that it's special.

And, I believe that all these other "humans" are also conscious, according to the evidence (such as them looking and behaving, all things considered, very similar to me). So, evidently, they have something beyond physics, too.
As for ChatGPT, the evidence I have is that it exists just in physics like normal (being ANN based and all). So I do not believe it is conscious.
