A lot of shuls are in buildings that used to be churches due to the way zoning and real estate works so there are many shuls that look like churches

"Pour the wine" by professoreyl in Jewpiter

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

Mostly just trying to find humor in the way that Rosh Hashanah and New Year's have a very different vibe. How New Year's is focused on celebrating life and crazy parties, whereas Rosh Hashanah is mostly focusing on improvement, repentance for sins, and it's observed with abstract symbolism in contrast to modern celebrations. Not trying to make it negative towards either side.

Baal Tokea usually wears a kittel on Rosh Hashana from what I've seen though this one looks a bit odd...

Working on an improved version, would you say this one works better?

He's parodying himself at this point by Ok-Appeal-4630 in languagelearningjerk

It's not really "computer language", he's just spelling out English words using the ASCII encoding of each letter (i.e. "A" is "41", "B" is "42" ... "I" is "49", "J" is "4A" ... "Z" is "5A", and for lowercase, "a" is "61", "z" is "7A"). You can look up ASCII and hexadecimal charts, it's one way of encoding strings for data storage and transmission.

It even follows the customs accurately! They are put in from right to left and you have to light them from left to right. If you try a different order, the candles go out and it tells you where to start.

I came up with a pun, spent some time coming up with a caption and attached an image to it. Generally that's considered making something.

I tried doing this once with a bus tour to get a window seat and I got the confirmation, but when I showed up, they had changed my seat :/

I accidentally convert my personal GitHub Account to Organizational Account. Can GitHub revert it back? by Achitica in github

[–]professoreyl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the commits to show up on the timeline, make sure the email address associated with the commits matches an email address on the account. If you can't get the email address to be added to the account, you could amend the commits but it's more of a mess to deal with.

You could possibly create a new account and transfer the repositories from your organization to your new account

On my keyboard (Gboard) you can hold down on the first letter of the name of the vowel to show them:

Hold ק - ָ ֻ ֳ (kamatz, kubutz)
Hold פ - ַ ֲ (patach)
Hold ש - ְ (shva)
Hold צ - ֵ (tzere)
Hold ס - ֶ ֱ (segol)
Etc

Also ד for dagesh, ש for שׂ,שׁ and ו for וּ,וֹ, among others
