  • According to The Constitution we should have been having a Constitutional Convention every few years (3 years? 4? 5? 6? Who knows) so maybe we should make up for lost time.

  • Trump Sparks Health Concerns With Confusing ‘Daughter’ Photo

    Jump

  • In the article:

    Online sleuths identified the woman as Margo Catsimatidis, 74, the wife of billionaire retail mogul and Trump ally John Catsimatidis, suggesting that the photo had likely been taken at Camp David at some time during the Clinton administration. The couple’s daughter, Andrea Catsimatidis, is the chairwoman of the Manhattan Republican Party.

  • This is with the youtube phone app. The streamer has other people mention the buffering so it might be the way settings are on his end - and he has said as much. I dont watch enough streamers to know if it happens with others.

  • Christian right calls James Talarico "demonic" — for quoting Jesus

  • The original languages of both testaments is disputed by scholars, there's evidence both were written originally in Greek (the OT no earlier than 200BC) and translated later into Hebrew, Aramaic, etc. Hebrew was basically a dead language at the time the Old Testament was written, having around 8000 words, and the OT seems to draw heavily from Greek mythological texts available at the time through the Library of Alexandria.

    Greek was the lingua franca of the time and Judea, Galilee and Bethlehem were thoroughly conquered at this time and Jesus and the disciples were native Greek speakers. The ruins of synagogues unearthed from the centuries near the crucifixion had Greek text on the walls.

    In my opinion, anyone who tries to talk about the Bible but has a lack of understanding of the Grecoroman world is missing 90% of the picture. The most authentic texts are the Greek ones, the Seputagints for the Old Testament and the Greek versions for the New Testament.

    Anyone interested in learning ancient Greek is fortunate right now as Dr. Ammon Hillman has a free 2 week intensive course up on his non monetized youtube channel along with a vast amount of supplementary material.

  • Imagine being so lazy that sending Google $15 a month instead of taking 30 minutes of your time to accomplish the same result.

    Ahem, $18.99/month, and yes I'm extraordinarily lazy, and I'm in the bottom quintile in terms of income so expenses hit harder for me than most.

    I suppose the main reason is I don't want another party in the loop that might be collecting info on my browsing habits, one is plenty.

  • premium only skips half the ads anyway with everyone doing promos mid video anyway.

    Fwiw with premium if you hit fast forward once during the promp theres usually a "jump ahead" button that appears that allows you to skip to the promo's end

  • Oh dont worry I actually do pay for the "convenience" of premium and I still experience interruptions, youtube either refusing to load the video list for minutes at a time or severe buffering issues watching a stream with left leaning content, usually losing a second out of every five unless I turn the phone screen off and just listen to the audio. I'm expect it will only get shittier too

  • Shes crass but Julie knows her priorities, the woman in the picture knows hers too I'd hope. Or maybe both are gullible or irresponsible, who can say. Cats are super neat but (ethical) jewellery is neat too. Marriage isnt for everyone but it's nice to think of the people it brings happiness to.
