Don’t tell me how to talk dirty

It’s still a one time purchase for the license. It’s only OS updates that would need to be paid for yearly after the 1st year

Good to know, thank you! I haven’t touched S3 storage yet in my self hosting journey

For anyone else who was thinking of starting an instance, local storage is still a no-go right now

S3-Compatible Storage Required Currently, Loops requires an S3-compatible filesystem (like AWS S3, MinIO, or DigitalOcean Spaces) for avatar and video storage. Support for local storage is on the way but is not yet implemented. Please ensure you have S3 credentials ready before proceeding.

Your tear ducts (and everyone else’s as well) are connected to your nasal cavity. It’s where tears drain and partly why we get runny noses when our eyes are tearing up.

Definitely more unusual to be able to force air the other way, but not impossible. I’ll sometimes do it accidentally if blowing my nose too hard.

That took me way too long to notice

Dropout is easily a worthwhile subscription for anyone looking for good comedy

You asked for downvotes. Don’t be surprised when it happens.

Oh yeah, absolutely

20% of the price is typical and horribly out of reach with how expensive housing is

What you’re looking for is genealogy software. You’ve got me curious about this as well now, hadn’t thought about it before. I’m seeing some recommendations online for Gramps Web, don’t know if it’s a perfect fit but might be a good starting point.

If it’s the same lemon-shaped bottle of lemon juice I’m thinking of, it should say how many tablespoons of juice equals a medium lemon (Something like 3TBS maybe? Too lazy to look in my fridge right now)

…and? They could do that that even without seeing your content.

The redacted parts are victims names. You need to ask why they reacted what Trump bought.

The charger/phone charger. Since it’s the most used charger it’s just the default if we’re not specific

Religion should be an excuse to be good, not an excuse to be wrong.

I couldn’t agree more. The church absolutely has bad history in regards to black segregation and current issues with LGBTQ+ peoples. One of the big parts of our doctrine is that everyone here on earth is flawed, no one here is perfect. This very much includes the prophets and apostles (they have said so themselves), and - if one is in a good ward/congregation that understands the doctrine - we look into these past atrocities and try to be better. We teach church history and encourage members to look through archived documents and research materials.

If the founder can be wrong about something so harmful, and if core doctrines can later be rejected as mere “policy”, then really I should always be engaging my critical thinking.

Critical thinking is great, and definitely encouraged! Joseph Smith did his best to follow the doctrine and lead the church according to how he interpreted the scriptures, but at the end of the day he was just a human like you and I and subject to his own biases.

I do try and make a distinction between policy (how leaders understand doctrine and apply it to church functions. Current policy can be found in the General Handbook) and doctrine (what’s actually written in the scriptures, and often interpreted differently by different people). As far as I’m aware, church doctrine has never supported not giving blacks the priesthood. Church policy on the other hand was dictated by the times at the hands of men, and men decided that blacks could no longer receive the priesthood, and we can and do all agree that it was a Bad Thing to do and is a blemish on the church’s history.

I’m curious what doctrine you think has been changed? I’m a member of the church and can happily answer questions to the best of my ability.

I will agree that policy has changed over time (for better and for worse, it’s run by a bunch of regular people and people make both good and bad decisions) but the core doctrine is pretty static.

I started with Debian as well for my first server while I still had Windows as my desktop. Once I finally got around to ditching Windows, I was comfortable enough with a headless Debian server so figured I’d just stick with it for my desktop.

Definitely had some learning curves there. There’s a lot more tinkering to do to get things working

I can second Sceptre for both TV and regular monitors! They’re definitely not the best quality (not bad, not astounding), but they’re dumb and do the job
