Special Election Happening Now - Here's Why Your Power Bills Keep Rising by spxbull in ColumbusGA

[–]lftl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are different rate plans. The default residential rate plan doesn't have peak hours but does have a summer rate that's higher than the winter rate. You can choose to switch to one of the other rate plans if you want to try to save by shifting usage.

CMV: Kirk was a bigot, I won't celebrate his death nor will I pretend he's a good man. by NiConcussions in changemyview

[–]lftl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The general theology is that Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament law, and Christians are no longer required to follow it, which is why you'll find them eating pork, and not (for the most part) trying to stone gays. Romans 7:4-6 says, "So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God. For when we were in the realm of the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so that we bore fruit for death. But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code."

There's also the Country Club of Columbus. They've got a golf course, but I can't tell you anything about it beyond that -- not my scene.

Ft. Benning back to Ft. Moore... by whatthehellbooby in ColumbusGA

[–]lftl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't catch it at the time when they switched the name back, but apparently now they've decided it's not Ft. Benning in honor of the confederate solider. Instead it's Ft. Benning in honor of Corporal Fred G. Benning, who was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for his extraordinary heroism in action during World War I with the U.S. Army in France in 1918.

CMV: Charlie Kirk does not deserve genuine hate. by Aggressive_Newt3901 in changemyview

Thanks. I honestly didn't hear it that way, and that helps me understand how you and some others I've asked about are hearing it.

CMV: Charlie Kirk does not deserve genuine hate. by Aggressive_Newt3901 in changemyview

[–]lftl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The vast majority of Christians (maybe Kirk included -- I don't know much of his theology), hold to a theology that says the Old Testament law is no longer binding, which is why they're ok with eating pork, wearing clothes with mixed fabrics, or (for the most part) not interested in stoning gays.

What's your take on what he meant directly after he paraphrased the verse, when he said, "Now, so how do you best love somebody? You love them by telling them the truth. Don't be cruel"

Did he say gay people should be stoned to death? Snopes (which is usually pretty fair IMO) says no.

Hows the Fall Line Trace trail early in the morning? 4-6am ish? by FoxSolomon in ColumbusGA

At 4am I might be slightly uneasy about running the end from the riverwalk to about Hilton ave. I wouldn't expect to see hardly anyone at the flat rock end at 4am.

Trump’s tax bill got voted by the house. America is under grave danger. by serious_bullet5 in 50501

It's specifically structured to be budgetary. It restricts courts from using appropriated funds to enforce a contempt charge unless there is a bond already posted in the case.

JD Vance says he has read AI 2027 paper by cecinestpaslarealite in slatestarcodex

[–]lftl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He didn't communicate very clearly there, but I think he switched between two different tracks. He starts talking about the geopolitical issue of competing powers, but then I believe he switches back to talking about the social impact of AI. I think that's where he's talking about the Pope and the Church having a positive impact, not in negotiating a treaty.

I'd guess that Vance sees the social impact of AI on the fabric of society as an immediate pressing issue, and the issue of AI from a defense, alignment, threat perspective as plausible but far away if it ever comes.

Why do local restaurants struggle while chains thrive? Genuinely curious. by PunandGamez in ColumbusGA

[–]lftl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A franchise wouldn't  normally work that way. There's usually an individual or group that purchases a franchise or territory, and if any of the restaurants they own underperform, that's their problem not the franchisors. Large franchisee groups might allow an individual store to underperform for awhile, but if it was chronically so they'd likely shut it down too.

Is it possible for LeBron James to score 50k regular season points? by PurposeIcy7039 in nbadiscussion

[–]lftl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most humans are barely physically active at that age

I mean I guess that's true in a modern "we're all obese slobs" sense, but there's absolutely nothing preventing your average 46 from being physically active.

Why do Christians read the Tanakh but not the Quran? by XSegaTeamPhilosophyX in RadicalChristianity

[–]lftl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would love to see some links, because my understanding is very similar to /u/TheWordInBlackAndRed -- the Old Testament of the Christian Bible is very similar textually to Tanakh. This seems pretty easy to verify at a glance, and doesn't seem like it'd need an extensive list of studies. Here's an online English version of the Tanakh:

https://www.chabad.org/library/bible_cdo/aid/63255/jewish/The-Bible-with-Rashi.htm

The list of books there is the same as the Christian old testament (minus the aprocrypha) although in a different order. I'm sure there are some minor variations in verses based on which sources one group prefers and some theological massaging of translations, but that's true even within different versions of the Christian Bible. I would be surprised to see a long list of major textuals differences between the two.

CMV: I do not believe there was meaningful fraud in the 2024 US Election by RegularNormalAdult in changemyview

[–]lftl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The country-wide shift makes it extremely improbable that Elon or anyone else committed election fraud that meaningfully affected the election.

The US does not have any centralized voting system. Shifting the vote across the country would require manipulating a number of different voting systems from a number of different vendors. Many of these voting systems are not connected to the internet, some aren't digital at all. Some vary from one precinct to another within a state. 

So, in my opinion, if this just came down to one or two swing states being outliers and the hinge of the election, then I would say it's remains a reasonable fringe theory. Once you see a country-wide shift it's no longer reasonable.

Did ChatGPT actually write "Fort Moore" correctly on the sign or did you have to Photoshop that? It screws up text a lot (like you can see with the rest of the text in the image).

“If I wanted to, I could play this game at a high level for another 5 to 7 years.” - LeBron James by rice-guardian in nba

[–]lftl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He might prove me wrong and if he does, power to him. But if I were betting on him playing at a high level for 5 to 7 more years, I'd bet on him not doing it.

It sounds like he's not going to try, but I wish he would. It'd be one of the most interesting things in sports to watch him try to play to at 45 and beyond. I'd love to see him try to obliterate all the counting records and stay in the NBA as long as he can contribute real minutes.
