There's a sizable number of Christians who say the Trinity is part of the definition of Christianity. That's dumb gatekeeping, but if they insist on it, then the first three Presidents were not Christian. Washington was a diest, which means he would reject any divinity status for Jesus. Adams and Jefferson both explicitly rejected the Trinity.

Guessing Tucker is more in bed with Russia than Trump. Russia is in bed with Iran. Now it's the worst foursome scene on Pornhub.

Yes, it is. All those white men had the freedom to push that Mexican guy to the ground and handcuff him. See, that's real freedom, according to the Ten Commandments. It's why we should put the Ten Commandments in every schoolroom, so people know what they say, and how they say DEI is bad. It's right next to the Commandments about how oil belongs to America and the KJV is the only valid translation.

He's the guy who looked directly at the eclipse, so yeah, he'd probably do that, too.

Bets on Donnie forcing it to go ahead anyway?

Honestly, they'd be horrified at a bunch of things, some of which are on MAGA, and some on progressives. Maybe we shouldn't be taking the ideas of slaveowners from over 200 years ago as seriously as we do.

"You guys cured smallpox, and there's people who are working against the cure?" - Also Ben Franklin, who lost one of his sons to smallpox

How to win debates on the Internet 101.

In 201, you learn how to do it with more Latin.

Or one of those centrifuges. Would sustain it longer.

There's a whole other group out there who argues that doing anything to stop the bottom panel is communism, and communism is bad and terrible (according to people who have never read anything about it except Ayn Rand). You'll have to fight with them over what constitutes "real capitalism".

I'll be over here noting the whole notion of profits going predominantly to the owner of capital is flawed to begin with.

By random coincidence, eliminating women's suffrage is within the overton window of the Republican party.

 
 

There might be a good reason for this. Raster effects were already really good in newer games, and ray tracing could only improve on that high bar. It's filling in details that are barely noticeable, but creap ever so slightly closer to photorealism.

Old games start from a low bar, so ray tracing has dramatic improvement.

 

Not 100% sure if this is a Summit issue or something in Lemmy more generally. Here's the post in question:

https://midwest.social/post/10123989

The link to the blog works on my instance for the desktop. Several other users were reporting the link being broken, and it does break for me on Summit, as well.

When I hit the link on Summit, the requests on the server are GET /api/v3/post?id=2024 and GET /api/v3/comment/list?max_depth=6&post_id=2024&sort=Top&type_=All. It looks like it parsed out the "2024" from the original link and tried to use that in a Lemmy API call.

Which linked to my blog here: https://wumpus-cave.net/post/2024/03/2024-03-20-moores-law-is-dead/index.html

On my instance (midwest.social), this works fine. However, some other users were reporting a broken link, and I also see a broken link when using my mobile app (Summit). When it breaks, I see these calls in the server logs:

  • GET /api/v3/post?id=2024
  • GET /api/v3/comment/list?max_depth=6&post_id=2024&sort=Top&type_=All

Which appear to be Lemmy API calls with some of the actual link data built in.
