  • Even if god exists religion can't possibly be the way to god

    Jump

  • On the internet? In general I take someone that spells "God" with a capital to be a theist (usually only 2 of 3 monotheistic believes, because Muslims usually use "Allah" probably). Or perhaps raised as a theist, lost their faith, but not bitter against their old faith. while if someone uses "god" they are probably not a theist.

    Makes sense to me too: I as a theist would refer to "Thor" as a "god" because to me it is not an entity that exists. It would only make sense for someone that is an atheist to not use a capital to refer to my "God": They don't believe it to be a real entity after all.

    E: although, I guess fictional characters do use capitals, so maybe I'm wrong.

  • What would you do with your time if you didn't have to work to meet your food, housing, and healthcare needs?

  • I'd probably cut down my current job to about 1 day a week (because I still love my job).

    I'd Spend the rest of the time making all kinds of weird abstract artpieces that nobody would understand.

  • I know this is just a showerthought, but what do you define as religion? The term religion doesn't necessarily need a God.

    Or do you mean the 3 mainstream monotheistic religions? (Christianity, Judaism, Islam)

  • Why is End of Life of an OS bad for an average user?

    Jump

  • I do, just wanted to know more about how bad stuff actually would be if you wouldn't. Asked questions, learned a lot.

  • Thanks for the thorough explanation! Interesting stuff, the examples really helped me see the many different ways an attack could work.

  • I guess that's where I have a limited understanding of how Internet and maybe even exploits works: how would people even find my machine? There is little to no incentive, unlike with a corporation. They must know where my door is to even use the keys.

    Can you just sort of do a brute force scan of all machines currently on the internet? Seems unlikely. In my mind, you can only access a machine if you have some idea about it's whereabouts, either physically or digitally. But then again, I have no knowledge about these kinds of things.

    Well... maybe 70%.

  • Alternatives to Adobe Creative Cloud for an easily frustrated boomer...

    Jump

  • If she used adobe suite for so many years, it would currently be agony to try and switch. It will take months, maybe even years to unlearn and relearn stuff properly.

    Unless she only uses it for some simple cropping or something. Maybe you can add what kind of tools she actually uses?

  • What is an easy instrument to learn?

    Jump

  • As others have stated: you don't necessarily need to read music for it to be fun. And there are different ways of notation. Chords, for example, are a great way to learn music without having to read on a per note basis.

    Acoustic guitar is fairly easy to pick up. It will take a few days of pain to get your fingers accustomed to pressing the strings though. Takes quite some pressure from your fingers. But after those first few days, you're golden. It's also easier to change in which "key" you play a song(oversimplified: how high or low the whole song is).

    Piano is another pretty easy instrument to learn chords on. The upside of piano is that you won't have pain in the fingers for your first few days. You press and you'll have a sound. It is harder to play in different "keys" though.

    Keyboard is an interesting one too: You'll learn chords like with the piano, but you'll have acces to more sounds, backing tracks etc in your keyboard if you'd go that route.

    Flutes and such are quite easy to get into, but can be a bit less interesting if you only play on your own.

    But in the end, most instruments takes practice and time. Just set your own goals on what you find important.

  • Posted this somewhere else too, but saying Theremin is easy is just crazy. It is one of, if not THE most precise instrument there is.

    The pitch can vary per session if you happen to have different CLOTHES on. It is that precise. Carolina Eyck on Youtube has some great videos about the basics. She shows how complicated playing tonally is with a Theremin.

    Easy to have fun with though, but playing along with other music is really hard. You need very good ears to succesfully play a Theremin

  • Huh, never noticed that. Probably always thought that was just part of the program/files needed.

  • Thanks! Hmm, never thought of looking at 7zip's settings to see if it can autodelete/not unpack that stuff. I'll see if I can find such a setting!

  • Hmm, I'd say the Theramin is easy to have fun with, but to actually learn to play songs it is up there in difficulty with the violin. It is one of, if not THE most precise instrument there is.

  • Our news network has daily polls anyone can participate in. They share the results daily during their broadcasts. They even ask open ended questions or commentary, and broadcast those with different views.
