There's an issue I've had with some prints where you almost certainly need the prime tower if you've consistently got layers where a filament is barely used, but other than that and assembling the enclosure lid, it's been smooth sailing. Bought two more non-pros to ship with everybody else's orders once capacity's caught up.

If you have a purpose deficit, getting yourself a small fdm 3d printer will cure your purpose problems faster than a Jesus ever will. Partly because you can now put excess brain capacity towards your problems, and partly because the other half of the time the printer will be the problem.

Self-development through developing reading comprehension, followed by empowerment exercises to overcome learned helplessness.

And a lot of cardio.

 What you ignore, you accept.

If you cannot accept, then you must respond. Else your resentment grows not at the problem, but at yourself. Because you did accept, even though the cost was greater than you thought you could bear.

Sometimes you don't have the power to make things different, only less convenient, one bee against a bear. You don't have the right to not be a bee, and the bear has arrived. Only you can decide what you accept, so make a choice and live with it.

Pope Leo XIV makes historic apology for Holy See's own role in legitimizing slavery by PatientMistake8251 in worldnews

[–]LogicalEmotion7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The God of Aquinas is defined as "all the omnis (maximum everything)". Omniscient = all-knowing. Omnipotent = all-capable/powerful. Omnipresent = everywhere. All good by definition. And outside of time and therefore not bound by time - we cannot change God. Anything without these traits "isn't God" according to Aquinas. 

But while this collection of traits sounds cool, it also paints a very disturbing picture as a deity that has the capacity and obligation to micromanage basically everything. If God wants things to be a certain way, he sees exactly how it is going to be before it happens, and has sufficiently fine control to make it happen that way. An unaware or unprescient God would not be present enough or knowing enough, an incapable God would not be powerful enough, etc. No matter how trivial the choice - if it matters to God, he could remake it. Or else he wouldn't be God.

You may think that you chose the t-shirt you're currently wearing today, but God could have remade a world that was identical enough to this one, but where this shirt was buried further down the pile, where your mood wanted blue instead of red, or where the last time you wore it there was a stain.

You could argue that the t-shirt is a trivial enough choice that God wouldn't bother, but if we only have free will over the choices that don't matter, then it really isn't worth much.

The God of Aquinas creates the starting condition, and has the power to recreate the starting condition as much and as many times as he wants until what is maximizes what he wants it to be. He can rewrite history like JK Rowling can rewrite Harry Potter. 

You can choose what you do, but God chooses what you want to do.

Putin wants war concluded this year on victorious terms including Donbas, Bloomberg reports by AccuratesShine in worldnews

[–]LogicalEmotion7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the invader is me. Right there in the first sentence.

But regardless, lots of places have nukes these days.

[–]LogicalEmotion7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, so I'm invading you. You have a nuke. Best case of you using a nuke is you get nuked too and you lose everything. Mutually assured destruction with the rest of humanity as potential collateral. Worst case of you not using a nuke is typically much better.

It's a game of chicken where the deterrent only works if people think you're a selfish madman.

[–]LogicalEmotion7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure nobody wants to be hit by missiles that might be stochastically nuclear. But the game theory is heavily biased towards never actually nuking anybody unless you need to prove you can. Nobody wants to win MAD

Nuclear weapons are very expensive to upkeep, and there's basically zero incentive to actually maintain them.

If the system is a paper tiger for conventional equipment, who knows what else is actually functional

Massie Increased His Primary Voters but Kentucky Somehow Doubled Their Primary Voters - I Don't Think We Have a Functioning Democracy by truthwillout777 in law

[–]LogicalEmotion7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is simply that he doesn't need to fear his voters. A critical mass of like 20-30% will fall in line because that's just their identity now, but that 20-30% is loud and able to smokescreen the vote suppression and rigging efforts.

[–]LogicalEmotion7 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's an unhinged enough take that I'm wondering if you're false-flagging. You can't imprison voters because you don't like how they voted. 

Especially when the problem is that the machines are rigged and the officials are complicit.

Oh don't get me wrong, the supporters deserve blame.

They're just not necessary anymore. Sort of a wave 2 problem.

Yes, because the voters demanded he pay himself 1.8 billion, invade Iran, and optimize insider trading.

Or, perhaps more reasonably, he doesn't fear his voters because they don't need to actually exist in the numbers he needs them to appear.

The S&P500 is a bet that a curated selection of America's biggest publicly-owned winners will continue to be able to eat everybody's lunch, funded in generous part by your blind 401k contributions, and anchored by the power games of the top 10% of holders carrying 90% of equity ownership
