Looking at the current conduct of the russian military, you’re not exactly giving me higher hopes for our ability to let anyone have those

My take is that the afterlife comes in three phases, yes phases because as much as it gives the fundies a hard-on there’s literally nothing humanly possible to do that could justify a permanent state of the worst torment imagineable.
Phase 1, atonement, you do the hard work for the souls you’ve harmed in your life to forgive you and release the chains that bind your soul.
Phase 2, forgiveness, you do the harder work of forgiving what wrongs have been done to you. Those chains hold you to your material existence, and you have to let go of them to be ready to move on.
Phase 3, reunion, the veil behind which no eyes may see. All you’ll know is that by now anyone you haven’t met yet from your life has done the soul rending work you have and walked beyond it. They’re on the other side, and they’re waiting for you to join them, what that’ll look like, probably some 4-D amalgamation of every heaven or paradise or state of eternal bliss ever foretold by human words, and yet also none of those things, because not only do we not understand it, doing the hard work of being forgiven and doing all the forgiving is what it takes for you to be ready to understand it. I think it is what specifically god spoke of when they said they are both and yet neither of human binaries, and incomprehensible in their true essence to the human mind.
I guess pursuing the question much further is necessarily going to take us to the big one, “what happens after we die?”
And there’s only so many times I can deliver the punch line “lots of things that just don’t involve us anymore.” before I start to feel like a “that guy” about it.
I refuse to believe that there isn’t a secret containment plan that all nuclear powers are coerced into agreeing to that basically gives every other nuclear power the right to intervene and secure the nukes from paramilitaries and terrorists in the event of state collapse.
The only reason I would presume NK isn’t in on it is because everyone’s agreed by now that if they fall it’s gonna be a race between China and South Korea for who can press a legitimate claim first.
Don’t worry, if Kyiv’s getting nuked, so are all the rest of us, so you’d have found out long before you had time to read about it! :D
More seriously, someone’s really gotta figure out how to attack the nuclear arms specifically. Putin is making it obvious that the world will never be safe if there’s even the remotest chance some lunatic could gain the ability to fire those things.
It would have to be the fastest military operation ever conducted in human history, but if it worked, it would save the world.
I actually do use acrobat for legal document work
It good for adding signatures and making changes to pdf format schtuff
Less a formalized word and more a turn of phrase
We have a lot of them for sex related stuff due to a looooooong history of how the culture around what’s considered vulgar has developed
Getting (CONSENTUALLY) gangbanged by A LOT of guys, like enough that it starts to involve logistics planning to accommodate that many people being in a single space at one time.
I genuinely wonder how many government systems are vulnerable to being broken by someone issuing a command to update to the latest software version
According to Bush Jr. And Cheney you are now capable of building a super computer dangerous enough to warrant a 20+ year invasion
Depending on the actual condition of all those computers and your own skill in building I’d say you could rig a pretty decent home server rack out of all of those for really most purposes you could imagine, including as a personal VPN, personal RDP to conduct work on, personal test server for experimental code and/or testing potentially unsafe downloads/links for viruses
Shit you could probably build your own OS that optimizes for all that computing power just for the funzies, or even use it to make money by contributing its computing power to a crowd sourced computing project where you dedicate memory bandwidth to the project for some grad student or research institute to do all their crazy math with. Easiest way to rack up academic citations if you ever want to be a researcher!
Oh shit someone turned the widowmaker into a pistol, we all fucked bois!
furiously trying to rewrite unix in Rust
JK I got a D+ in operating systems I wouldn’t even know where to fucking begin lol
There are exactly two kinds of folks in IT, soon to be or fully out anime queer folks and furries, and 60 something industry gurus who all always wear polo shirts and live in an upper middle class house despite apparently being rich as sin, also they are so hard for home security measures their backup security footage server in Montana has its own backup in a bugout bunker in New Zealand.
I was neither so I ended up being a number cruncher for a solar company instead.
Surprised Gab isn’t the record holder, it was the big deal example the fediverse advocates held up as how awesome the fediverse is at moderating itself, especially the “defed if federated with” rule instances started using to actually quarantine the users from Gab
You just infected us all by turning racism into “I just lost the game.”
Their flair for supporting LatAm anti-american groups has caused them to pick up the LatAm chip on the shoulder that nobody else uses “America” to refer to the whole of North and South America like they do, and instead use it to specifically denote the US.
It’s gonna be 2020 every damn year until the last of those damned redcaps drops dead wondering why they can’t taste the horse paste.
Sounds pretty secure except for at the update stage, but you said that’s handled differently so maybe that’s more secure too.
