The only story that pops up is a pipeline rupture in Satartia, Mississippi. No fatalities, 46 people hospitalized. Maybe OP is misremembering?

Isn’t it fascinating how you can talk honestly about religious texts when you’re not bound by dogma? Fundamentalists hate this one simple trick.

it can be helpful to consider the thought as bad as the action for the purpose of weeding that behaviour out of our lives. Not that the thought is as bad as the action, because clearly it isn’t.

Considering how many (ex)Christian folks struggle with guilt for having “impure thoughts”, that appears to be a flawed approach. You can’t control what kinds of thoughts spontaneously appear in your mind. Imo you should simply be aware that these thoughts are separate from your intentions and actions towards that person, and don’t guide those actions.

Keep in mind that the Bible treats adultery as property crime against the father or husband of that particular woman. If you try to apply Jesus’ teachings to infidelity specifically, you must wrestle with a bunch of historical and cultural baggage. Nothing wrong with treating a story as inspirational, but again, be aware that you’re making Jesus more cool and progressive than he probably deserves.

Yeah, Jesus is prone to hyperbole, agree on that.

Counter point: literally the next two verses

31 “It was also said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’
32 But I say to you that anyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Not to mention that “adultery in his heart” is essentially thought-crime, which I personally find rather unchill and not based.

I imagine any reasonable traffic law would forbid drivers from impeding traffic like that. You might be able to do it somewhat discreetly, but it’s still a matter of enforcement, and you can bet blue nonces will suddenly start caring about enforcing traffic laws.

Edit: UK Road Traffic Act

If a person drives a mechanically propelled vehicle on a road or other public place without due care and attention, or without reasonable consideration for other persons using the road or place, he is guilty of an offence.

Even more interesting that land use had a marginal cooling effect, despite also causing a net increase in CO2 emissions.

It really feels like SCOTUS noticed that environmentally-conscious people are advocating for expansion of rail, and will now rule in favour of this project just to spite them.

approval for a railroad project

Let’s see…

that would carry crude oil

😭 what the heck

Thanks for the explanation, you really came in clutch.

Until now I was under the impression that this was the goal of these notices:

If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you must distribute your contributions under the same license as the original.

Because if an LLM ingests a comment with a copyright notice like that, there’s a chance it will start appending copyright notices to it’s own responses, which could technically, legally, maybe make the AI model CC BY-NC-SA 4.0? A way to “poison” the dataset, so that OpenAI is obliged to distribute it’s model under that license. Obviously there’s no chance of that working, but it draws attention to AI companies breaking copyright law.

(also, I have no clue about copyrights)

Thanks for the context. I still don’t really trust the efforts to decarbonize oil, and I’d rather see it downsized or replaced (with e-fuels for example), than building new plants that are more efficient. Except we’re so reliant on oil we can’t just use less of it, so the options are limited.

What exactly is the rationale behind sending essentially a carbon tax paid by German citizens to the opposite end of the world? Other than potential for oversights and fraud, obviously. Instead of funding renewables in Germany, the money is used to “reduce CO2 emissions” during fossil fuel extraction, what the fuck?

A few posts in my feed also have trouble loading images, so it’s possible that dbzer0 has federation problems again.

Maybe it’s just the cheddar.

Cool. I was posting and reading comments on desktop and the @ didn’t appear hyperlinked, so I assumed it wouldn’t work. On Jerboa it looks fine though.

Imagine your daughter brings a guy over for dinner and he says this. I’m putting a ring on him myself.

Well, that didn’t work.

E: Or did it? Shouldn’t you use a link to mention someone?

Edit2: Well, I suppose I could tag him myself, but that would make me look like some ridiculous fanboy 😔

Looks like Delta will be one of the first, but I don’t think it’s available just yet.

I think “Nintendo” should be treated like a plural noun because they consist of many lawyers.

Nice try kiddo, but sloth is a sin 😎
