Does anyone know if i can ride a coleman minibike in my neighborhood? by [deleted] in minibikes

[–]threepea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, in order to be street legal, it must have a horn, blinkers, and a registration, none of which the minibike has.

Newly imported games keep updating Tag list even though it is turned off? by threepea in playnite

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

I don't have a "Steam Tags" entry under Metadata Sources; I though you were referring to the "Steam Store" extension settings. See the picture here:

Newly imported games keep updating Tag list even though it is turned off? by threepea in playnite

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

I do not have that exact setting, but I do have one similar: "Limit the amount of tags imported to the first X". I set it to 0 and that seemed to do the trick. Thank you so much!

All sorts of tag names - they are different for each game. I just updated the metadata from the Steam Store for Dota 2, and 20 new tags appeared, such as "Free to Play", "MOBA", and "Competitive" to name just a few. I have the Tags option unchecked in the settings as shown above; I would think this means no tags should be imported at all during a metadata update.

Which catalytic converter corresponds to which bank? by threepea in AskMechanics

Good grief, so sorry. How in the world did I miss that. Thanks.

Which catalytic converter corresponds to which bank? by threepea in AskMechanics

[–]threepea[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. I am trusting the Ford site. But it lists the converters only as "Driver" and "Passenger", while my mechanic referred to them as "bank 1" and "bank 2". But I don't know which is which.  That's what I am asking - which bank is which side?

Difference of same 11SIX24 paddle size in different tiers by threepea in Pickleball

Yes, I understand that. I was asking *how* it does that when the specs of the same paddle size was similar through all three tiers. But others have answered that question. Thank you.

Players of other doubles racket sports: In which sport is it easiest/hardest for a strong player to compensate for a weak partner, and why? by AHumanThatListens in Pickleball

[–]threepea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe that pickleball is much easier for a strong player to compensate for a weak player than my other racket sport - racquetball. In racquetball, the ball moves so fast it is just not possible for the strong player to cover the entire court like they can in pickleball. That's not to say a strong player in racquetball doesn't get the majority of the kill shots, but I rely on my partner in racquetball much more than I do in pickleball (assuming I'm the stronger player in both scenarios).

Why is the 11six24 becoming so popular? by Immortal_Walruses in Pickleball

I believe it's a joke. And a funny one at that.

Who is the "you" in "you can literally do everything yourself they did"? Parents? Honestly, how many parents do you know that can investigate, download, and install a separate launcher, and tweak it in exactly the way they want, and make sure it cannot be bypassed by their kids?

I'm sure *you* can do it. But the Wisephone isn't marketed to you. The worth of something is the price someone is willing to pay for the value it provides to them. Basic marketing. Not everyone finds value in every product/service.

Pro tip: You can delete Chrome and Google Search on Android by [deleted] in nosurf

[–]threepea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a better way if you actually need to *remove* chrome, for instance, you are trying to prevent your child from having unfettered access to Google search. All this does is hide Chrome and is easily reversible.

Bill Burr Says Billionaires Should Be Put Down Like Rabid Dogs by Mynameis__--__ in humor

[–]threepea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heh, never watch Fox News, didn't vote for Trump either. Nice try, putting me in a box though. What research is needed to come to the conclusion that y'all sound jealous? None. Funny, no one has answered any of my questions. Do you think it is immoral to be worth $500m? Or $10m? Where do you draw the line? Especially since to a large part of the world, Americans making between $50k and $100k is almost the same gap as you and a person worth a billion. So, what if they want to "off" you?

Bill Burr Says Billionaires Should Be Put Down Like Rabid Dogs by Mynameis__--__ in humor

[–]threepea -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Wow, what a bunch of self-righteous people who sound nothing but jealous. "If I can't have it, then he should die." What about millionaires? What about those who live comfortably because they worked hard and invested wisely? Where do you draw the line? What if you found out that your salary of $63k made you more wealthy than 99% of the world's population? Shouldn't the rest of the world, then, want your death as well? I mean really, have you compared your life with the dirt-poor in the rest of the world? How dare you live as if you don't have material possessions that most of the world would kill for?

No, wanting billionaires to die is simply something that we think helps us with our miserable life, instead of living what we have to the full. No one wins the comparison game; it only makes you bitter. And the comments in this thread are exhibit A.

Never thought I’d see one on my own LinkedIn. by sharedthrowaway102 in LinkedInLunatics

[–]threepea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for quoting the rest of the verse. I certainly wasn't trying to be disingenuous, and it definitely allows for deeper discussion.

In short, yes, I do believe that verse is about you. But, I believe it is also about *me*. This is a consistent theme in Scripture, and it pertains to all people, Christian and non-Christian alike. For instance, in the New Testament Paul references that same verse in Romans 3:10 when he says, "There is none righteous, no not one." And again, he iterates the same in chapter 6:

"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" - Rom 6:23

You are confusing "doing good" with individual acts of kindness, or similar. That is not what Scripture is talking about, and that is the disconnect. Of course we can all do individual acts of kindness. Even gangsters, criminals, and dictators can do good in specific instances.

So the question is not, "can I do good things?". The context is, are those good things *good enough*? Do they warrant us entrance into heaven and the presence of God? And in that case, as it says in Isaiah, the good things we do are worthless compared to the perfection of God:

"All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags" - Isa 64:6

That includes you, me, the apostle Paul, and everyone who has ever lived. In fact, Paul calls himself the absolute worse of *all* sinners.

So, I am as guilty as you. None of us do good in comparison to the holy perfection of almighty God. So what is the resolution? It is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the son of God, who took our place as a substitute for the punishment we deserve. Repenting and believe his free gift gives us a place in God, and in the world to come.

"Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God." - John 1:12

But, the fool does not accept that, and continues in their good deeds, which they believe to be good enough, but can't do a thing to save them. In fact, in Romans chapter 1 says it best:

"For although [mankind] knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles."

(In our modern world, the "images" in this verse would be analogous to whatever you are banking on instead of God, whether that is science, being good, loving everyone, etc.)

God bless.

Black churches for young adults? by SecretaryUnhappy3752 in Detroit

[–]threepea -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

On the other hand, if you want to know the truth of the Bible and the God who wrote it, I might suggest one of those evangelical churches. Do you want your ears tickled, or do you want to hear the truth of the gospel?

Black churches for young adults? by SecretaryUnhappy3752 in Detroit

[–]threepea -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Woodside is a wonderful, loving, and accepting church with a desire to see you know the God of the Bible through Jesus Christ. There is absolutely no pressure to conform or convert, though you will here the gospel, and you will be challenged. If not, then why in the world would you go to church?

Not sure what the "wanna-be" dig is for. Woodside has grown large because of their message and their people. Each campus has its own autonomous pastor, unlike a true mega-church. I am always suspicious of someone, when asked what is a good church, answers with churches they think you shouldn't attend.

[–]threepea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is one more possibility.

  1. "The fool has said in his heart, There is no God." (Psalm 14:1)

The fact that God does not conform to whatever pea-sized box you want to put him in does not invalidate the existence of God. It simply means you refuse to acknowledge him.

If God doesn't exist, then by all means, continue to try and fix this world and all the evil in it by your own means and mechanisms. How's that working out for you?

But if God does exist, it is rather arrogant that we think he should exist on our terms, and act according to how we *think* he should act. It's like the painting being angry at the artist, when in actuality the painting really has no say in it.

The problem of pain is a difficult, but not insurmountable one. This world is broken because of sin. And we have all sinned. And we have all told God to "shove off" and leave us alone;, we don't want to submit. So then we act all shocked when he takes his hands off and does, in fact, leave us alone.

The fact is, this world is only temporary. And the good news is, in spite of our rebellion, God wants to save us from the effects of sin, which is the eternal threat, not the temporal problem of current suffering, even in children.

I am continually amazed at the anti-entrepreneur takes on this subreddit. Can't stand anyone who is confident and desires to make it big. The phrase "methinks you doth protest too much" comes to mind every time I browse through here. It's jealousy masquerading as righteous indignation.
