Hey, thanks for those of you who responded courteously and constructive to the crazy Catholic 😊. I appreciate it. To anyone who might stumble upon this thread who is interested in learning more about the nature of Hell and Sin, here is a good article I found adressing the question. The same website also has a couple other articles on Hell. https://www.catholic.com/magazine/online-edition/what-is-hell God Bless! I guess the atheist version of that would be nice talk'in 😄

Just gonna say, as a Catholic, He never sends anyone to Hell, they send themeselves to Hell. Furthermore, the whole "Hell is the worst pain you can imagine" immediately makes one think Of a torture chamber. That isn't neccessarily what Hell is. Hell is simply a separation from God. It is being alone and miserable that is thgreatest pain.

The whole idea of God sending people to infinite torture because man is a depraved, wicked thing is a very harmful calvinistic idea.

Not trying to be a troll. I just want to set the records straight.

If I was trying to scam you i wouldn't exactly admit to it :)

I have been with them from the early alpha stage to present. They are almost releasing into beta. So far, no alarm bells have gone off in my head. They are very open and transparent and have answered nearly every question that is posed to them by the community. I would suggest checking out their discord server and seeing for yourself. Plus, if you join their Discord server, you will get earlier access.

P.S. I have been using it for a couple months now and it has been working. It is also working for the couple hundred other alpha testers. So, it works.

Should I use Privacy Badger in addition to Brave Shields? in c/[email protected]

Lemmy is now the 3rd largest Fediverse project by monthly active users! in c/[email protected]

I think around 200,000 seems pretty accurate going off of lemmyverse.net. I sorted the instances by number of users and it seems like it would add up good. The first five servers were 36k, 19k, 11k, 8k, 4k users. After that it was just a bunch of instances with less than 2k users. But that doesn't mean we can't get it up to 6 million :) Let's keep on welcoming the redditers.

Should I use Privacy Badger in addition to Brave Shields? (lemmy.ml)
 

I know that in a lot of privacy communities they recommend to use uBlock in addition to Privacy Badger. The reason for this, I believe, is the uBlock functions off of block lists while Privacy Badger functions by recognizing the behavior of trackers. Does Brave Shields only function off of block lists or should I also install privacy badger? Please correct me if I got any of those details wrong.

Satire: White 12 Passenger Van Either Belongs To Kidnapper Or Nice Catholic Family (babylonbee.com)
 

I don't know about you all, but when my mom got pulled over in our white, beat up van for speeding. . . . . . We had about 4 extra cop cars brought in until they figured out we were just a family of 8 and not carrying drugs.

What are YOU self-hosting? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm self-hosting some stuff on a yunohost server but i plan to switch to start9 once they add support for clearnet.

  • Nextcloud
  • Jellyfin
  • Calibreweb
  • Email (though I don't really use it)

I would be hosting more but our internet is too slow for anything else to really be effective.

After the death of Pope Benedict (R.I.P. Bro) the media has decided to make it as dramatic as possible. It is important to understand what is actually going on and not let them jump to the conclusions for us.

Gmail introduces end-to-end encryption (www.lifewire.com)
 

Breaking news! It's now raining cats and dogs! No . . . wait, Google is just planning to implement E2EE. I just thought the former occurrence was more likely than that latter. Yeah, so google is now implementing E2EE. That's a surprising bonus for the privacy committee. What do you all think, you think this is actually a step forward or will it just be a repeat of apple's "E2EE"

Sunbird Messenger (no more blue bubbles!) (sunbirdapp.com)
 

Hey everyone, I’ve got a software suggestion for all you android users. Here’s the cheesy sales pitch, though I’d share: Sunbird is a new All-In-One messenger that will hopefully be coming out in mid-2023. It will basically aggregate multiple messengers on android (whatsapp, facebook messenger, sms, rcs, discord, signal) including imessage! NO MORE GREEN BUBBLES!!! Best part (other than imessage), there going to keep it free for as long as they can. (at least that’s the vibe I’m getting from the discord server). This app looks so freaking cool! Currently they’ve just got it open to some alpha testers but they will start releasing it to beta list soon. Let me just say, the alpha’s screenshots of imessage are looking very nice. You can use this link to sign up for the beta https://sunbirdapp.com/?r=jVmdy

Update: Ok everyone, as far as my legitometer is a curate, they've got a ten. I got into the alpha testing and have been successfully sending imessages to people for a couple days now. This is incredibly impressive and I am so looking forward to its completion.
