Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why do people say "Catholics and Christians" in (USA) when Catholics are also Christians, as if they refer to it as a different religion.
13·2 years agoI was raised evangelical protestant in the USA, at some point attending both Seventh-day Adventist and Pentacostal churches. My mother did not consider my Catholic grandparents to be Christians, based on her belief that one cannot be saved by confession/prayer to a saint or clergy instead of directly to Christ. As many other have said, this is not the mainstream definition.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•The clothes you are wearing vanish in an instant. How does this affect you?
3·2 years agoThere are kids around, so it’s gonna be real bad.
Since you have LAN parties in mind, be sure to check this list to know what games are (or are not) well supported by Proton under Linux.
Proton is the compatibility layer that allows Seam games developed for Windows to run under Linux. Some games, unfortunately, may have problems that cause you to be left out.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are some small or mundane things that illicit strong feelings of nostalgia within you?
17·2 years agoI grew up next to a stop sign in a tiny town straddling a one-lane road that by some joke of fate was the the most efficient automobile route between two points of much greater interest.
To me, the sound of a big diesel engine idling at a stop is the sound of a peaceful winter night with my bedroom window open.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Cool experiments to do with milk teeth?
37·2 years agoYou know how this goes, right?
The resulting thirst for scientific knowledge results in unparalleled technological advancement, but also an endless demand deciduous teeth for further experimentation. Eventually their personally-developed, secretly manufactured and deployed microdrone monitoring network alerts them every time any child loses a tooth in the Western world. Slightly larger drones sneak into the home and collect the tooth. In an attempt to avoid further pressing of ethical boundaries, the drones are equipped to carry in small amounts of currency that are left in place of the tooth. Your family, more literally and on a larger scale than any family before, DOES the tooth fairy 🧚 stuff.
It’s probably Emacs, but I’m a Neovim user, so I’m going to go with that.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•As badly described as possible, what is your favorite video game?
4·2 years agoIt’s like Mad Max, except you have no guns or ammunition and so are mostly reliant on turtle carcasses and fruit peels instead.
I have other thoughts, but these are the most objective ones:
- The theme was integrated with all applications I tried and I didn’t spot any problems with it. (I’d tell you I liked it, but that would be subjective)
- Installing via Pamac required knowing what source (repos, AUR, et cetera) you were installing from or to try multiple.
- My Brother wifi printer couldn’t connect and I didn’t find a guide to resolve it.
- I couldn’t get audio to work correctly on my Thinkpad X1 Carbon 9th Gen.
- The forums seemed to be active.
- I ran it for a week in a VM without breaking anything. Didn’t run for any length of time on bare metal due to the printer and sound issues.
Compared to Fedora and EndeavorOS:
- Default GNOME theming, of course also through.
- GNOME Store will show you all available sources when you search for the package on Fedora. For EndeavorOS I have to search two places on archlinux.org and flathub.
- My printer worked with Fedora out of the box. For EndeavorOS I found a detailed guide they put together.
- No audio issues on either.
- Fedora also has a large forum. The EndeavorOS forum seems to have fewer users.
- I ran Fedora on my laptop for 6 months. When I upgraded between versions, I ended up with two versions of some applications like “Terminal” and “GNOME Terminal,” which was confusing. No breakages.
- I’ve been running EndeavorOS for 14 months. I broke GRUB when everyone else on Arch and EndeavorOS did. I still had the live USB, and EndeavorOS provided instructions on how to fix it, although it was written for Ext4 and I had to make some educated guesses since I use BTRFS. I was successful and that was my only breakage.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is an item below 100 bucks that everyone should own?
2·2 years agoWhen the box (and instructions) to frozen convenience foods get lost, I use mine to figure out when it’s heated through.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your "I fucking hate this song" song?
0·2 years agoAll of the Phil Collins songs that were played in the Tarzan movies.
