Thanks for sharing! I find what you have is really interesting.

Something I’m very curious about is how your wife is alright with the risk of them not choosing to be Christian and getting an eternity in hell? Is she a Christian universalist?

I think I sort of get where youre coming from. But my relationship with my parents isnt the kind where it matters if they know Im irreligious. It also isnt important enough to me that I would want them to know.

It’s more that I don’t want to ruin my relationship with them than that I rely on them or anything like that.

If I have kids I won’t raise them by a religion or put them through the expected rituals, and my parents will notice that. Which would then force me to come out. So not ruining my relationship with them means not having kids.

Proteus (closed source, paid) has a whole range of microcontrollers, and I’ve found it to be great (pirated it). There is also Simulide (open source) with a more limited bunch of microcontrollers which I havent used much but was pretty nice.

Both allow you to attach your MCU to external circuits with Proteus in particularly having a wide range of components you can use. They also have tools for measuring and oscilloscopes, etc.

The flag in your username made me pause. On some other social media it meant hindu nationalist, love that here it means you like NetBSD lol.

Hope you get well

I’m guessing you misread the post. If not, how do digestive problems affect peeing?

A 2023 Pew survey found 53% of Indians being for recognizing same sex marriage and 43% against (for comparison Switzerland in their 2021 referendum had 64% for and 36% against same sex marriage).

India relatively recently decriminalized gay sex and passed a law legally recognizing the gender trans people choose to identify as, and the national health insurance covers abortions and transitioning.

Its not as simple as your comment makes it out to be, equality in marriage might sometime be recognized.

I wish there was a saying about judging things by their content and not irrelevant aesthetics related to it.

Theyre all the same, just different angles

I loved it :)

I didnt care for all the musicians and would instead watch regular people doing stuff or showing off parts of their lives, and get to occasionally ask them about their interests for example.

A chat with a tailor at work, someone showing off their farm, two random irish dudes in their living room, etc.

That would make a great writing prompt imo !writingprompts@lemmy.world

Very cool, thanks for sharing!

Here’s a satirical passage from Terry Prachett’s Small Gods that I absolutely love:

There were all sorts of ways to petition the Great God, but they depended largely on how much you could afford, which was right and proper and exactly how things should be. After all, those who had achieved success in the world clearly had done it with the approval of the Great God, because it was impossible to believe that they had managed it with His disapproval. In the same way, the Quisition could act without possibility of flaw. Suspicion was proof. How could it be anything else? The Great God would not have seen fit to put the suspicion in the minds of His exquisitors unless it was right that it should be there. Life could be very simple, if you believed in the Great God Om. And sometimes quite short, too.

I’m guessing you didn’t manually insert those footnotes, how did you?

I was fantasizing about all the things I’d finally do. On second thought I’ll probably just use the night to scroll too lol.
