And greed, well you gotta be wealthy in order to afford giving God a nice juicy tithe. Also gotta be self sufficient.
According to Luke 16:13 Jesus said “You cannot serve both God and money.”
Mark 10:21 “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

We’re already massively overpopulated: https://overshoot.footprintnetwork.org/
Human overpopulation is the root cause and biggest cause of catastrophic climate change:
Yes. We need a fertility rate of about 0.01 for several decades, because human overpopulation is the root cause and biggest cause of catastrophic climate change:
If we choose not to vote in parties to make such laws, we’ll be culpable in letting the anthropocene extinction event become a mass-extinction event - wiping out more than 50% of genera and more than 70% of species. If you think too few honey bees are bad, imagine how catastrophic it would be for most living species to go extinct, including almost all the small life forms in the oceans which provide the majority of the biosphere’s oxygen.
Human overpopulation is the biggest cause of anthropogenic climate change, and the root cause of almost all existential and major ethical problems facing us.
Becoming a biological parent while our fertility rate is catastrophically and unsustainably high, causes by far more CO2e pollution than anything else.
We shouldn’t just tax these omnicidal people, we should vote in parties that’ll make laws to jail or hang people making the world unlivable.
opossum is naturally immune to rabies
The CDC says they’re not, they just rarely have rabies: https://www.cdc.gov/vitalsigns/rabies/pdf/vs-0612-wildlife-rabies-h.pdf
The way the 4th panel leads your eyes up to the 2nd is amazing: 5 panels for the size of 4.
It may mean the user doesn’t think their use is similar enough to the people who make the distro/DE, or trust the distro makers’ decision making ability.
If a distros’ makers think snaps are a good idea, or that the distro shouldn’t by default show available security updates, or have a UI that hides how many open instances there are of a program unless you hover over an icon, or hides the titles of those open programs, or hides panels; then the way I use a PC is too different from the way they do - and there are likely more things in the background that we disagree with which can’t as easily be changed like UI settings.
Thanks for the comments. Based on them I found https://github.com/snapcrafters/gimp/issues/21 which suggested copying the font to ~/.fonts/ (which didn’t work) and to /usr/local/share/fonts/ which fixed it - Epiphany can now see the font, and I can now set it as default in Firefox (tho Firefox is ignoring it in a page’s CSS).
The crust is minuscule compared to the core and mantle.
The mantle makes up about 84% of Earth’s total volume. The temperature varies from about 1 300 K (1 000°C, 1 832°F) near its boundary with the crust, to 4 000 K (3 700°C, 6 692°F) near its boundary with the core. https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/mantle/
The temperature in the Earth’s core is uncertain: estimates at the inner core boundary range from 4 000 K to 8 000 K and at the core–mantle boundary from 3 000 to 4 500 K. https://www.homepages.ucl.ac.uk/~ucfbdxa/pubblicazioni/nat.pdf

The king’s royal household gets about ZAR 71 300 000 per year [1] (EUR 3 500 000, tho I think the actual buying power is much more than the euros would indicate).
I don’t know if that royal family brings in any tourism money like royals in some other countries. Hopefully not, because tourism is a major contributor to catastrophic climate change.
The South African constitution states that “A traditional authority that observes a system of customary law may function subject to any applicable legislation and customs, which includes amendments to, or repeal of, that legislation or those customs. The courts must apply customary law when that law is applicable, subject to the Constitution and any legislation that specifically deals with customary law.” [2]
Traditional laws include polygamy, and the previous king had 6 wives and about 28 children. [3] The former president of South Africa, the openly corrupt Jacob Zuma, is a Zulu and had about 21 children. [4]
The Zulu king effectively owns 30% of the KwaZulu-Natal province, and that 30% is more land than the entire country of Rwanda. [3] [5]
blocked efforts to pass domestic legislation limiting greenhouse gas emissions
If only there was a way to not have legislators that choose to cause a mass extinction and kill billions of people. If only it was possible for people to somehow choose more ethical Green legislators instead…
“Everybody complains about politicians. Everybody says they suck. Well, where do people think these politicians come from? They don’t fall out of the sky. They don’t pass through a membrane from another reality. They come from American parents, and American families, American homes, American schools, American churches, American businesses, and American universities; and they are elected by American citizens. This is the best we can do folks. This is what we have to offer. It’s what our system produces: garbage in, garbage out. […] If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you’re going to get selfish, ignorant leaders. Term limits ain’t going to do any good; you’re just going to end up with a brand new bunch of selfish, ignorant Americans. So, maybe, maybe, maybe, it’s not the politicians who suck. Maybe something else sucks around here… like, the public.” - George Carlin https://piped.video/watch?v=cBrbXOmnW70
More than 99% of people reject Green parties, and instead keep voting for parties and politicians subsidizing a mass extinction. Would it be ethically correct for the 1% of people who don’t want a mass extinction, to keep killing the omnicidal class - which the 98% will then find replacements for?
It’s not just the richest 1% who are the problem - yes they cause vastly more harm than the rest, but it’s also the other 98% poorest who vote for the most violent, Machiavellian, narcissists there are to rule them.
The former media ‘shock jock’ commentator has made a series of attacks on the pope, calling him an “imbecile who defends social justice”, a “son of a bitch preaching communism” https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/argentine-priests-defend-pope-francis-over-shameful-milei-attacks-2023-09-05/
According to Luke 16:13 Jesus is supposed to have said “You cannot serve both God and money.”
Luke 6:29-30 “If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back.”
Mark 10:21 “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
Are they also going to investigate the mass-extinction causing climate-change impact of flying?
Many South Koreans, especially older ones, have a negative perception of Japanese voters. One of the main reasons for South Korean and Chinese dislike of Japanese voters, is Japan’s government’s refusal to properly apologize for war crimes, especially WW2 and just before.
Whereas people in Germany in the 1960s started to admit the horrors they were responsible for in WW2, the Japanese still seem not to.
be deprived of tax benefits, although it could still operate as an entity in Japan.
Religions fleece people who are too stupid to differentiate between reality and fairy tales. These are probably the same people who keep voting for politicians and parties that allow tax benefits for religions.
how to encourage young people to start families and lift Japan’s chronically low birthrate.
Do they also encourage people to fly, drive, set fire to oil fields, melt permafrost covering methane, work for fossil fuel companies?
Pearl jam is my favorite band also, and Riot act is probably also my favorite album of theirs.
If you like Pearl jam, I’d recommend my favorite album of all times: Soundgarden’s Superunknown.
