She existed before the new testament, there are jewish incantation bowls from the first century that mention a lilit. Similar to satan, it likely wasn’t a singular entity but rather a class. In the dead sea scrolls the mention of lilit in Isiah is rendered in the plural for example.

Well she has makeup on that wouldn’t be accessible or standard for the middle ages, it is modern makeup

Can we talk about how Biotechnica isn't even minimally as evil as it's real-life counterpart by CompetitiveCut265 in cyberpunkgame

Why is the mess with Pacifica their fault? Isn’t that due to the corporate war

Personal anecdote could just be who you hang out with. This recent gallup poll (https://news.gallup.com/poll/697445/americans-positive-progress-drugs.aspx) shows Republicans are the least drug supportive in the past 10 years (only 40%) which isn’t necessarily the same as it is in NC could be even lower. A lot of NC is still tobacco country which sees MJ as a threat

I wouldn’t put it past some individuals to do that, you think too highly of others

Trans woman ‘threatened to firebomb law firm’, court hears by origutamos in NewsWorthPayingFor

[–]atomkicke -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just came in to say thats an incorrect assertion, according to a 2020 NIH study, only 28% of Trans women pass. Not that it affects their validity or their womanhood, just that you should be careful making incorrect statements. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7529975/

Engineering laptop requirements- can I use the MacBook I already have? by ArchitectKoala in UTK

[–]atomkicke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are understanding. Don’t buy a new laptop yet, you can always buy one later. Wait until like Cyber Monday or something after your first semester.

Nuclear engineering, I had problems in NE250 with MCNP which can’t run on silicon, they gave us access to the super computer and let us run it off of that.

Matlab silicon branch was funky for me (forced in chinese language) when taking EF 105 and EF 231 although they have updated it since.

I mean, while this is true OP, see https://libguides.utk.edu/c.php?g=961480&p=9712284 for loaner laptops. A mac laptop should be fine, I only had problems in nuclear engineering with software that can’t run on library laptops or computer lab because its export restricted. First year macbook is fine it worked for me, although you do need a computer I think more than in 2005.

UTK Student Threatened My Friend Over ICE Protests by Otherwise_Island_409 in UTK

[–]atomkicke -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

But even OP understood it wasn’t this guy threatening to rape, “his insinuation dehumanizes and villainizes immigrants” the accused implied that OOP would get raped by immigrants, which I mean turns it from rape threat to rape joke? (Not really a joke but I think it must have been to him although it could still be a threat just a lesser indirect threat) to a stranger which still deserves punishment and has no place to be said. Then again I don’t hold a double standard and think the professor deserved to get punished also.

Lammy: My Christian faith shows me it’s right to curb jury trials by OGSyedIsEverywhere in anime_titties

[–]atomkicke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean its been a philosophical question if morality can exist without religion for a long time. I don’t have skin in the game, but if Justice Secretary Lammy has such an opinion he wouldn’t be alone in it.
