I'd consider both, and he seems much better over the past decade or so.

I think that's just life/humans. Same ideas apply to the average Lemmy post.

The Red Letter thing is wild, I only stumbled upon that gem of US religion a few years back.

In some sense the bible is a prolonged argument on the mechanics of butchering animals and how it relates to humans.

Burnt offerings, red heifers, hundreds of years of a lamb sacrifice tied to the temple, the Christos becoming the lamb of God, the Christos on the cross as the serpent on the staff, the binding of Issac and all that jazz.

In the book of Samuel wiping out the animals is a feature of genocide: "Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass."

I appreciate he's upset with novel tech and tooling but after reading that: he's the tool.

Linux is fine.

If you wanna avoid LLM's all up in your kernel then leave, Linus has put his foot down on this months back and the kernel is knee deep in llm's, and powering much of the ecosystem.

If operating systems need verification the linux ecosystem seems well placed to avoid this with LFS, Gentoo, Toybox and many more being kits to build your own.

If Linux does get drowned in twats and turns into some kinda IBM powered Steam machine then the BSD's are waiting.

King's Field IV

Nightreign made me sad, duskblood looks far worse...this is like a safe space and kinda makes me think Miyazaki maybe made things worse by trying to duct tape Resident Evil vibes to a wonderful ecosystem for cash.

Duct taping American gun lore to the KJV is top notch.

Makes me think Trump understands scripture better than most US bible school nerds.

The 27 book NT has rather a lot going on, one can pull pretty much whatever they wish from it and laity reading the scriptures more a novel protestant meme that led to one hell of mess if you look at the state of bible worship in the US.

Cut your balls off for God as Matthean Jesus was preaching, or one could look to force Jezebels into bed and kill the kids to teach her a lesson, but deacons and above should only have one wife..something for all.

Lots of peeps thought the end was coming much as we have today, but I'd be wary of sugesing all the ascetic traditions were hysterical end times peeps. The same apocalyptic memes trending in the modern day via zombies or aliens or nukes or asteroids or whatever. I think around Mary Shelly is where the public seems to prefer sciencey sounding hysteria devoid of theological language but that seems more fashion vibes.

My kids seem to prefer Harry Potter as their virginal magus messiah that touched death to save the world, like temu Jesus to me written by a high grade twat but to each their own.

Not sure it's all Greek/Roman either as the western latin tradition seems keen to push. African, Syriac and many more seems rather important. Baghdad more the center of the Christian world than Rome for some time afaiu.

Any sane, rational view of the Bible shows it to be little more than the confused scribblings of ignorant Bronze or early Iron Age tribes.

Seems more likely it's Hellenistic-Roman period literature. The bronze/iron age stuff largely marketing, dab a teabag on it & say 'ye olde booke'.

I don't think he's arguing. He doesn't 'want it badly', he has it, the kernel has it, it's not going away.

https://lore.kernel.org/...

He couldn't really be much clearer: If you have an issue with it then leave, or do the open source thing and fork the kernel instead of:

"But the solution is not to put your head in the sand and sing "La La La, I can't hear you" at the top of your voice like some people seem to do."

Ubuntu is a solid option to start, and stay. Llm's know it well, everything targets Ubuntu and the ecosystem covers server, workstation, IoT, containers and various architectures.

For non-corporate stuff I'm a fan of the antiX and MX ecosystems, Debian with rims on and a lot of user choice, control and toolkits to make things easy to manage.

I'd be wary of peeps saying 'distro XYZ is shit', try stuff and see what you think. Arch is a fragile restrictive toy ime, but loads seem to love it.

If it's just a basic workstation most distros likely fine, pick something you like the vibes of and see how you go.
