I’m hoping someone who has read more theory can answer this question. Because I don’t see why religious affiliation should conflict with class solidarity and the abolition of private property.

This is the most Lemmy answer possible lmao

You should write on an unsettled question that interests you enough to keep your interest for a long time. If you don’t have a clue what this is, then I recommend you do some literature review. Research is not done in a vacuum. Once you know what conversations people are having, then you can see where your perspective can make a valuable contribution.

Really like GunSmoke. Old-timey western. Use it to go to sleep sometimes.

Pecan pie is very calorie dense and I don’t have the self control

I love pecan pie but I feel guilty every time. If I’m eating pie I’m more likely to go for apple or blueberry pie.

It can be news on topics you’re interested in, blogs on topics you’re interested in, comics, subreddits, etc. To give an idea, I follow:

• Ars Technica for tech news
• NASA for space news
• Local blogs on food/events/news/ going on in my city
• RockPaperShotgun for gaming news
• “A Collection of Unmitigated Pedantry” for blog posts from a history professor
• Richard Y Chappell for blog posts from a philosophy professor
• A few YouTube channels
• A few niche Reddit feeds
• XKCD for comics (most webcomic artists have an RSS feed)

Depending on your RSS app, you can also follow podcasts. I use InoReader for the above but I prefer a dedicated podcast app. There’s good/entertaining RSS feeds on the internet if you’re willing to curate it! It’s nice to get away from internet comments.

Honestly, just set up an RSS feed. The internet is a bunch of isolated echo-chambers where you self-select into the chamber with the narrative you favor.

Anna’s Archive. 37,666,367 books, 105,835,081 papers — preserved forever. I’ve replaced my entire physical library and can now take my reading on the go.

I’m not a tech person, so I’ll take the lowest hanging fruit. The obvious answer is to write a program that can detect AI. Then there will be a competition between AI fakes and AI detection. This is similar to what we have in sports. There are forbidden enhancement procedures (e.g., steroids, blood doping, etc.) that have to keep improving in subtlety so not to be detected by Anti cheating measures.

After the reddit exodus I started creating memes for the first time and posting them on Lemmy. I’ve learned that it’s harder to be funny than I thought. Also a lot of time/effort and I have actually important things in my life that I focus on. Reposting was also kinda fun but what’s the point really

This is great stuff, thanks!

Thanks a lot for the suggestions!

This comment alone is making me interested in Greek mythology. I’d like to know more. Any reading suggestions toward that end?

inb4: the God of the Abrahamic religions hurr durr

Does anyone have this meme template?

Hey you, reading this right now. You just drank water didn’t you?

There would be no religious wars, honor killings, more freedom, no religious leaders abusing their powers, no waste of labor and money on religious things, etc. It may seem that we would be more educated and have better understanding.

Removing the word religion from this excerpt wouldn’t remove any of these problems. We would still squabble over territory, resources, and ideological differences. To give a non-religious analogy: if a time traveler went back and killed Hitler, Germany would still retain all the problems from WW1 and the Weimar Republic that were ripe for a dictatorship.

I really don’t like Reddit’s attitude as a corporation. The sense of entitlement from a user driven content aggregator is insane.
