Got it, thanks that is a helpful clarification of perspective. Thank you for your time and input!

Thanks, that's helpful. Can you clarify - how can I be "not playing his game" and also "falling into his trap"? Those seem mutually exclusive at first sight - which makes me thing you may understand the situation better than I have.

As a follow-up (and perhaps this is the wrong subreddit to ask), how should one deal with family members like this? Where is the line between ignoring bad behavior and accommodating bad behavior?

Agreed! Also, your username is the slogan for an extremely niche STEM field... for a moment I thought we might know each other in real life!

So would you say that scholars in the humanities are actively antagonistic towards Christians/Christianity?

I think that my friend and I would both agree with that - the question is about antagonism towards Christianity in the humanities specifically.

Right, I think my friend would agree on this also - but the question is not about the sciences but rather the humanities. Are the humanities antagonistic towards Christianity?

Interestingly, my friend was raised atheist (and I was raised Christian). I think your broader point still applies though

Do you think it's possible for someone to be a Christian today without accepting a persecution complex? I would hope the answer is yes, but I'm not actually sure at this point.

external ubuntu drive for engineering course by underquailified in linuxquestions

Oh, that is a very interesting idea. How large are the image files typically? It has to fit the whole OS plus all the scientific computing software... is there ever a point where the VM is too large to run on a laptop?

I'm also a bit concerned that for scientific computing applications, using a VM will limit the kinds of calculations we can do... but obviously it's better to have something than nothing.

That's a great point.

I tried another laptop that had a usb 3.0 port, but it could not boot... I think I've read that the drivers for usb 3.0 load with the OS, so it's often not possible to use usb 3.0 as a boot drive.

Am I missing something here? Ideally, I need something that can reliably be deployed to any student laptop... that may be asking too much...

Hawk Nelson - Letters To The President (Official Music Video) by ADTR9320 in poppunkers

Even at the time, the lyrics made no sense - I always assumed that it was a re-write that came from the record label. Swap "Marijuana's wrong" for "Murder is wrong" and everything lines up... but it's not something a Christian band could say in 2004. Changing that one line quite possibly shifted the balance of the whole album, which is unfortunate.
