  • I believe Jesus also said

    Matthew 7:5 Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

    So maybe we should focus on our own paths in life rather than someone else’s life decision that has 0 bearing on whether you or I go to heaven or hell?

    I mean why people are so obsessed with what people do in their own home, on their own dime, and their own time is beyond me.

    Christofacists just want to control others. They don’t care what Jesus said. They don’t want to FOLLOW Jesus, They want to BE Jesus and tell others how to live.

    Def not a math major (BS/PharmD), but your explanation was like seeing through a visual illusion for the first time! lol

    I was always taught PEMDAS growing up, and that the MD and the AS was read left to right in an equation like above. But stating the division as a fraction completely changes my mind now about how this calculation works. I think what would happen in a calculation I use every day if the former was used.

    Example: Cockcroft-Gault Equation (estimation of renal function)

    (140-age)(kg) / 72(SCr) vs (140-age) X kg ➗72 X SCr

    In the first eq (correct one) an 80yo patient who weighs 65kg and has an SCr ~ 1.5 = 36.11

    In the latter it = 81.25 (waaay too high for an 80yo lol)

    edit: calculation variable






    1. Parents are southern baptist and tithe 10% yearly

    2. Constantly complain about socialism, and taxes

    3. Go on mission trips to Haiti to help build homes

    4. Constantly complain about refugees and immigration

    5. Claims to have lgbt, black, etc minority friends

    6. Sees nothing wrong with current Supreme Court trend taking rights away from said minority groups…

    7/8. Think of any two things that are opposites between real life, what religion should be about, and politics… and it is someway twisted in a way you wouldn’t think would be possible.

    TLDR: there is no way of dealing with this cognitive dissonance. It is maddening. I’ve gotten to the point of trolling my fam with republican Jesus lol. It’s the only thing that makes me at least laugh about the insanity.








  • Thankfully with the knowledge from my server, the switch will be more kind than if I’d never touched Linux before.

    For real man, close to a decade ago I started off with a raspberry pi b+ and literally copying and pasting every code I found, and today I feel I can do almost anything I want in Linux. Moving from tinkering with Xbmc and retropies, to setting up openhan and pi-holes, then moving on to dockers, home assistant, and web-servers to building out a server/networking closet and running cat6 through the house lol

    I love that the steam deck has a desktop mode as well. If steamos was out for desktop AND it supported nvidia (which it currently doesn’t), then that would be my new OS and I’d drop windows today.


  • I have and for the most part it’s actually really good and responsive… live video feeds aren’t working like I want (no live video, just an updated scene every 30 seconds), but house alarm, lights, garage door, outlets, door locks all work great and all of it is through home assistant then to HomeKit … none of my devices are “HomeKit” compatible, I use mostly z-wave and have home assistant parse the info and tunnel though home


  • Yea I completely forgot to mention HomeKit in my comment! Is it kind of generic and do I wish it could do more? Yea, but damn is it nice to tell Siri “goodnight” and all the light in the house go out, the doors lock, and the alarm sets! Plus my partner can use it better than home assistant, and if I need my bro to come watch my house for a week, I can give him access on his phone and revoke it any time!



  • I like android and have a couple android devices (mostly retro handhelds and CCTV, and have spun up a few VMs), I also have many devices with linux (unraid, pihole, vpn servers, web servers) and run a pfsense firewall (FreeBSD), AND my gaming PC is windows…

    I say all that because when it comes to mobile devices, however, I am all in pretty much on apple. Phone, watch, Pro 2s, and Ipad mini go with me pretty much every where. Why? not really the app eco-system (because I do so much self-hosting and use a lot of PWAs, and I dont play games on my phone), its the inter-operability between all the devices, its the find my device, Its the earpods going from my ipad to my iphone in an instant, Its the battery life, its (for the most part) security of the devices.

    The blue/green bubble thing is weird and I don’t understand why people get so upset over it. I use everything, and to be honest the only thing at this point in my life I would like to get rid of is windows, but I can’t yet because of gaming.
