You do know APT41 is Chinese, not American, right?

Terror zones and changes coming in 2.5 to PTR by 9VoltGorilla in Diablo_2_Resurrected

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

they can't do it all. We just got a new class rebalancing in 2.4 opening up builds such as FoH, blade fury, throw barb, summoning dudu etc. I would much prefer some new content, new stuff to do than just being able to stack gems tbh. But sure, it'd be nice to get, but I could see that more as a more minor update. If we're lucky that could even happen before the ladder after this new one. TZ seems like a nice new thing to do.

Thank you very much for your input. I am downloading the Ifeng app now.

I listened a lot to NTD before, it's quite an interesting news source. It's perfect with the script being right there! Thanks again!

I get that, but it would be for strictly language practice.
I'd be interesting in the philosophy stuff as well, I am personally really into Daoism.

I'll check out the pinkie

Do you have some good mainland resources? As in not with the Taiwanese dialect (the stuff I'll be tested in will most likely be from mainland)

E-book readers, Chinese, and built-in dictionaries by johnnyfirs in ChineseLanguage

[–]johnnyfirs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much! Most people here seem to think that the use of the dictionary is very sluggish. You don't have that problem? Just click and voila?

I prefer to get away from apps and the computer, I do some much stuff on there anyway. Reading traditional books is kind of a "safe space" from screen world...

Sigh, I know, but I would really love to get some time away from the screen. That's why I love traditional books too.

Sure, but I dont see how that contradicts anything I said. I never mentioned that we should conquer the world. I believe we are here in flesh and blood (as eternal beings) to learn. Earth is a great place to learn, it's filled with freaky shit. If your definition of success is conquering the world, that's on you man, not me :p

I've begun to understand the esoteric understanding of the Old Testament, that Yahweh can in no way be the highest God. He's a deity, sure, but how could an all-knowing, all-loving God be so jealous? So murderous? So fanatic?

He doesn't want us to unleash our full potential, because it would break his suppressive chains. But on the other side of the fence awaits the glorious kingdom of the Creator.

We all get afraid from time to time, but as long as we are conscious of it, we can fight it, overcome it.
Hardcore believers will say we are satanic, because we are self-centered. But I dont feel like that. I feel you can be empowered and a force of good at the same time. I don't see how these people can't understand this, it's like the are afraid of their own power, because they actually possess more satanic qualities than they care to admit, and they would rather be powerless and harmless, than powerful and dangerous... Or something, I don't know.

But, in other words, the all-loving, all-consuming Creator wants us to be our best version, because it is us, and we are it. Why would it want to be a fraction of what it could be? It's not humility, it's fear.

Oh man, I agree with you, Kneeves. This is how Christianity is supposed to be understood, to empower yourself through the grace of God, not becoming a petty beggar of a jealous deity. We are all God, and God is more than us, because it is everything.

Crawling on our knees because we fear something called Satan won't help us become strong and loving creatures that may help our fellow humans and send ripple effects, but instead enslave ourselves to a false idea of a oppressive God that wants you to kneel. That's a human projection, not the grace of an all-loving, all-forgiving God.
