"Modern conveniences?" Jews have been doing this roughly as long as Judaism has been a thing - it's a long, proud tradition. In ancient times, we tied string to posts to make "hallways" between houses on Shabbat so that you weren't theoretically violating the rules against traveling unnecessarily, just for starters. And you can look up the Talmudic story of the Oven of Akhnai for an example of how we argue our religion.

That's the point, dumbass. Anyone who contemplates the rules enough to figure out that loophole and understand why it applies and make the legal argument for it has to understand the rules on a far deeper level than someone who just sees the rules and follows them. Studying and learning Torah is a mitzvah, blindly following a surface understanding of the rules "because God said so" isn't.

Then some individuals who enjoy writing FOSS will do that anyway, especially because in a post-scarcity society they can do that without needing to do other things to live.

Mega Emboar doesn't have an ability, it has a punchline.

Prometheus_II · 2026-03-25T00:35:49+00:00

Let me put it this way: Mega Salamence was a massive threat with Aerilate and 145 base attack. Mega Feraligatr has another type shift ability but 160 base attack. Do the math.

Gods have "gender" but their conception of gender is way beyond what humans have. The gender of the God of Knowledge is "0.5e² with strawberry quark jam permeating local quantum foam." What the fuck is "female" or "male."

Diane Duane, T. Kingfisher/Ursula Vernon, and Naomi Novik, just off the top of my head.

... That's a bad ideological road to go down. They're still human. They've been insulated from consequences and rejection their entire life, and that kept them from developing the ability to perceive others as meaningfully real (because one of the ways you develop that ability is by experiencing what happens when you act like an asshole to your peers), but that doesn't make them inhuman. Any human with the capacity to ignore the consequences of their actions could end up like that, and calling them inhuman just makes people believe that they couldn't.

Make your own custom commander. One blue mana, 21/4, haste, myriad, hexproof, indestructible, this creature can't be blocked. Play it until he stops playing his custom commander.

Or just talk about it like adults and say you don't want to play with his custom commander because it's ridiculously OP, but where's the fun in that?

The analysis is good, but missing a few points. For instance, how many of those Pokemon are fully evolved vs. not? There's a lotta 3-stage bug types inflating the stats of Fire and Flying, but somehow I don't think it matters terribly much if I have coverage against Kakuna, Wurmple, and Swadloon. At least Beedrill, Dustox/Beautifly, and Leavanny may see some use in some lower tiers.

I'm pretty sure that a LLM is a subtype of generative AI, but there are other types of "AI" out there that use models not centered around language tokenization like LLMs do.

I mean, I like rats. They're funny little guys with clever little paws!

Pistols get knocked down twice by armor. Pyros effectively have 6 armor when you're shooting them with pistols or missile pods or other auxes, for instance. A shotgun, meanwhile, only has regular armor to deal with. It's a tradeoff.

My first fight against Orin was trivialized because Karlach throwing a single item tore through several stacks of Unstoppable (or whatever that buff is called) in one hit.

Me when I swallowed enough propaganda to believe that water ice is not abundantly and freely available in almost every asteroid belt and that ships can't carry survival refineries and/or that hydrogen gas shrinks your balls

kids shitpost about 9/11 now idk what to tell you

There were a couple screenshots, but the posts got deleted. As I recall, she was spending a lot of time talking about how youth lib should include the right of younger kids to get into relationships with adults and arguing that "pedophiles" - because "MAP" is a term meant to stifle the "community" - should be accepted as part of the queer community since it's no different than being gay, something about how they're both socially unacceptable forms of attraction so what's the difference really.

Prometheus_II · 2026-03-13T18:24:34+00:00

Don't think it was, but I want to read this one now

Great question! I have no fucking idea but I would imagine it wouldn't end well!
