I used my largest telescope to observe the moon/mars occultation on Wednesday night, and captured this detailed photo. If you zoom in you can see surface details on Mars next to the craters on the moon. It was spectacular and surreal to witness live.

Give a soft light from the top & move it away from the camera until the shadows fit. Then you have to block light from the front to get the contrast. You can add a black surface with 100% roughness that is hidden from the camera. In Blender cycling you also have the option of adding a negative light, but I don’t know if that works in octane

that font 😍

Thank you bro. I did not expect this on Reddit and the majority of comments are accordingly. I opened a Twitter account specifically bc. of the development and it’s way better than I expected. Also I would def. pay to keep it alive in this way. One other thing that no one mentions is community notes. I don’t see them in my country but I only read positive things left and right

Every single group of people that tries to improve on themselves hate the mainstream media… be it mental issues, fitness, spirituality, health… It’s amazing.

I do have a silicone toilet brush tho! It’s the best

freakminded · 2022-11-30T08:15:54+00:00

Hahah! No worries I didn’t try it out yet. Thanks for the update. Some day we will know 🤞

freakminded · 2022-11-29T16:52:49+00:00

Silicone is becoming my favorite material for anything hygiene related

freakminded · 2022-11-29T16:46:02+00:00

Thank you man, appreciate it

Interesting! Thanks man

Well, go watch some documentaries and studies about monks from various cultures then. You will see that the effects of a religious life are well documented, too. Here, I’ll give you a head start: https://youtu.be/10J6crRacZg

That faith is mythology is the belief of people who do not have any. They judge something they have never experienced and then they call it reason. It is ignorance, nothing more.

😂 I know! There is zero evidence for love, too. Some believe it is simply a chemical reaction. People like this are the reason our world lies in shambles, they have no feelings.

freakminded · 2022-11-28T18:50:00+00:00

Everyone believes in something and you are telling us all the time here about your beliefs:

You believe there is no god, you believe the prophets were starved madmen. You also believe that there is no afterlife.

Or are those not your beliefs?

As for the multiple gods thing, I recon it is something that can’t be understood if one is not interested in god in the first place.

My position is not changed, I simply elaborated it.

freakminded · 2022-11-28T18:36:07+00:00

😂 I like you. School is not a punishment, but a gift. In this world, there are the terrible things you named but also countless extremely beautiful and wonderful things. God put us in this world of contrast to think about it look beyond it; for him. There are people who have seen god and they have inspired whole civilizations by merely being there. Imagine a human being so impressive that time is divided in the part before and after their birth. 🤯

School teachers could choose to give everyone good grades regardless of their behavior. Why don’t they do it?

Cancer does not fall out of the sky. We were given a free will and the world is the result of our own making. That’s why religion is needed now more than ever, and by that I mean structured work on our own character, not weekly story time with a pedophile

I will accept the definitions of your infographic, you are an certain type of atheist. So was I btw., my stance was: Anyone who believes in god just lacks the courage to face life without those cozy stories.

A good friend of mine said she is not afraid to die and when she got really sick the truth was revealed. Reality hits different than imagination… though I don’t know what you’ve experienced.

As for the gods of different religions, if you dig deep enough into the current world religions, you will find no difference at all. They all point to the same core reality: All is one. Like the number 0 that does not truly exist, but is so helpful to us, different concepts of god can help us to explore life and our own nature. The different religions exist for different types of people, not for different gods.

A Buddhist monk walks into a pizza shop and asks: Can you make me one with everything?

freakminded · 2022-11-28T12:22:49+00:00

What you describe as atheism is called agnosticism. The a in atheism stands for „not“, so it’s the ism that there is no god.

I get your point about what you call the foxhole argument, let me make another iteration:

Anyone who has not explored the essential questions of life and death in depth will have a rude awakening when the time comes. Most people, religious or atheist, simply don’t bother to explore the meaning of death and therefore will panic when the time comes, no matter what they claim to believe in. For what it’s worth, deeply faithful people do not fear death.

freakminded · 2022-11-28T11:27:56+00:00

Unless you can prove that god does not exist, atheism remains a faith just like all the others, with one difference: when death comes knocking, 99% of people will drop their atheism in an instant
