  • Not to mention, if you actually read the Bible (particularly the Old Testament), if you need to choose a “good guy” and a “bad guy,” it is very clear which would be which…

    Yahweh was a jealous, petty, genocidal maniac.

    Lucifer only told Eve she could actually eat fruit from a tree that god said she couldn’t (it being the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil isn’t relevant here im sure. No reason why this specific god would want to prevent his creation from discerning good from evil right??).

    Without him, if you are to believe the Bible (which you absolutely 100% should not), we would literally not have the knowledge of the difference between good and evil.

    And somehow that’s a bad thing? Ignorance is bliss?



  • I feel like everyone is talking about this as if it was a PR thing, but I imagine these guys (and their families) started getting death threats immediately after. They could be getting specific threats about violence at their upcoming concerts. Now isn’t really the time to not take that kind of shit seriously unfortunately. Yes, it’s right-wing terrorism. Yes, it works. Unfortunately.

    I see this as being more about self-preservation, and the safety of their families (and fans), than about PR. But maybe I’m wrong.


  • Yes there is. It’s called: stop being a religious ethnostate. Maybe try being a secular, Democratic nation that doesn’t literally have an apartheid system.

    South Africa was able to do it. Are you saying, with all of the funding my country is sending Israel (on my dime, by the way) they can’t do what South Africa did in the 1990s? Sounds like a bullshit excuse.

    Stop buying the propaganda. Both Netanyahu (and Likud in general) as well as Hamas have great interest in preventing a one state solution. It is of one of the few shared goals that they can agree on, and they have been doing everything in their power for decades to prevent that from even being an option on the table.

    And they’ve been wildly successful, as people balk at the very concept of rebuffing religious nationalism in favor of secular democracy with a one state solution.

    It’s the only possible way to achieve any kind of lasting peace in the region.






  • I haven’t used mine with PC (I usually just use an X-Box One controller, which was my fav prior to DualSense probably), but it’s a shame that more games don’t use the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. It’s used relatively often and pretty well on PS5, and for me it’s a borderline killer feature. If more games utilized it in the way Astro’s Playroom did (yes I know it’s a tech demo but that’s kind of the point), it would be far and away my favorite for any system.

    Haven’t had issues with battery life, but taht could be because I’ve updated firmware, or maybe the PS5 is just better at managing the DSs’ battery since they’re made for eachother. I also got the official brand charging dock, so perhaps that has something to do with prolonging battery life? Couldn’t tell you.
