News story #3 is actually kind of crazy to me. The only possible explanation for someone filling that lawsuit is if they don't believe in their own tenets. The suit has no grounds and is meant to suppress criticism.

It pretty clearly is a direct contradiction with tenet 4 (respecting freedoms of others, especially the freedom to offend) I might expect hypocrisy like this from other religious groups, but for TST, the tenets are a fundamental part of their movement.

Can confirm. I only had a bit of trouble with the last frame but was able to translate perfectly from context.

When I consider if the sentence is true, it claims to be false which is exclusive with truth, therefore the sentence is not true.

When I consider if the sentence is false, the claim is inverted, so the sentence has to be not false.

I arrived at a conclusion that is the opposite of Dialetheism, with the sentence being neither true nor false.

That doesn’t really make sense if you think about it though. You are making the scam less profitable to run. Even if the scammers work overtime to make up for wasted time, at the end of the day someone is paying them to be on the phone.

Do the scammers really decide to work more hours to make up for people wasting their time?

I’m sure it’s going to be “we got isekai’d into a Minecraft world and now we need to defeat [antagonist] before they ruin everything!”

It’s such a shame because I feel like theres a lot of potential. There are so many faces of Minecraft and ways to play the game (even within the relatively narrow area of vanilla survival multiplayer). Perhaps a better plot would revolve around the friction between these different playstyles.

Theoretically the electorals could go blue without winning any districts. It would require a third party to win at least one district though.

When I worked as a delivery driver, I did well only because of tips. If I was paid minimum wage and people stopped tipping, I would have been fucked.

So basically if your job had no tips, it would require a higher salary than minimum wage to retain workers.

Prism Launcher was forked from PolyMC due to a sequence of actions by Lenny McLennington on the 17th of October, 2022. Lenny made several politically charged changes to the PolyMC GitHub repository and organization to remove those supporting "left-wing ideologies". In a commit, Lenny removed the PolyMC Code of Conduct, which outlined and prohibited discrimination against the LGBTQIA+ community and subsequently removed all maintainers. The commit and subsequent mass purge of maintainers were done without prior warning or discussion with the rest of the PolyMC team; the incident can be considered a hostile takeover.

I feel like faith provides a disproportionate of comfort compared to guidance. People take the parts of religion they agree with, and discard the rest. I actually think this is good practice, but it becomes an issue when they use the affirmation of the broader religion to justify their actions.

A moral compass is something you have to find for yourself, and acknowledge that it is not backed up or justified by any other entity than yourself.

For me, I’ve found a good starting point is the TST tenets. Compared to the 10 commandments, they are much more broad. I can use them as a lens to analyze a variety of different situations and organize my thoughts and feelings.

But that doesn’t mean that I use TST to justify my actions, the tenets are my tools of introspection. Heck, the 7th tenet even acknowledges that the tenets are only guiding principles and seems to encourage finding your own morals.

Minecraft wiki is the wiki I have visited most often and it’s not even close. The amount of detailed technical information on nearly every aspect of the game is unmatched. Thanks to Citricsquid as well as all the moderators and editors!
