The Gollum game has a paid DLC for Sindarin (Elvish), though the game is pretty horrible.

Not sure about the current status of WSL1, but basically all new features are only developed for WSL2.

IIRC, WSL is a VM, albeit one tightly integrated and very fast.

That seriously can’t ever work on the technical level. You can simply remove metadata from an image.

To be able to even remotely be able to do what you want, you’d have to create a new image format where this is unremovable and make it impossible to convert such images to other formats.

That would probably need to involve DRM, I don’t think it’s possible without that. And still there would be people who’d either crack your DRM or simply caught the direct output of the graphics card and they’ll have your image in an editable format.

In short it’s impossible to do.

And you can’t ever post process images.

If you want to self host, rent some cheap server somewhere (I use Hetzner) the will act as a proxy and then configure frp.

It’s basically what Cloudflare tunnel does, except you need to provide the public server instead of Cloudflare giving you one for “free.”

I meant the character, not the name, I perhaps worded it poorly. Satan in this context is meant in the “accuser” sense. As in it’s a role in a divine court, not an entity. Anyone could be the “satan” for the specific case, it’s not a person, but a role.

You might find my top level comment on this post interesting.

Because it’s all fake. Everyone who actually reads it finds way too many inconsistencies.

That’s because it underwent some serious transformations across the millennia. Yahweh started as a storm god (basically Thor of Canaanite religion). Back then each nation in the religion had their own patron god and guess which god did the Israelites happen to have? Good old storm god Yahweh.

Over centuries the religion evolved and among Israelites Yahweh slowly took on attributes of other gods, mostly El (the all-father and creator of the universe) and Baal. First the other gods were degraded and monotheism was required, even though other gods were known to exist (you might remember the whole “jealous of other gods shtick” even though the rest of the Bible says there’s only one god).

Then the other gods were slowly edited out of the Bible, though some remains persevere (the aforementioned jealousy of other gods, some gods are even mentioned by name). If the gods couldn’t be removed because the story wouldn’t make sense, they were mostly changed into angels or other mythical beings.

It’s pretty funny rereading the Bible with this knowledge, you can clearly recognise which parts were the original Yahweh-the-storm-god and which used to be El-the-actual-creator by how he behaves in the story. When he’s all jealous, rageful and angry, it’s mostly based on the original Yahweh.

Anyway, that’s basically what Old Testament is - a bunch of edits of much older religions. IIRC Yahweh precedes even the Canaanite religion, so it’s a really old and grumpy storm god.

Now, New Testament is something else entirely, that was basically just slapped onto Judaism to have some legitimate and widely recognised vessel. Unlike the other edits, it didn’t evolve naturally over time, it was just violently slapped onto the Old Testament.

Fun fact: try finding Satan anywhere in the old testament. You won’t. Satan has been retrofit on multiple characters, but neither is mentioned directly as Satan, devil or really anything. The most famous one, the snake in the garden? Just a snake (which checks out with older religions where animals had a lot of influence). Then some morons come and say “actually, that snake was the grand adversary.” The concept of a grand adversary wasn’t really common in older religions, there usually wasn’t a Satan-like figure. Compare for example with Greek, Roman or Norse gods.

So, in conclusion, the Bible is a horrible mess of edits that were made so the religion would serve the needs of the time they were introduced in. IIRC the Israelites were having some trouble with their neighbours back when Yahweh got the promotion, so having a strong sense of nationality would really help in keeping the nation together. New Testament is even more obvious because it didn’t even really try to fit with the rest. They just tried to retrofit a few things and called it a day.

Well, this got longer than I planned, but I really like the topic and I don’t think you can do it justice in two paragraphs. If anyone’s interested, do some research, it’s honestly fascinating! For example, what’s the connection between Dionysus and Yahweh? That would be a homework for ya!

IIRC it was other people abusing temples to set up markets there, he didn’t have problems with the church itself.

So, we made it, thus it exists? Or did we somehow manage to create a year system but it still doesn’t exist?

Fun fact: year 0 does not exist.

That’s very naive. Your way leads to bad actors doing whatever they want while good actors suffer and are not able to fight back.

That beautiful world you dream of doesn’t exist, never did and never will.

Not in my book. Disney shot Mulan next to a concentration camp, for fuck’s sake.

I literally finally started watching it two weeks ago. I thought I maybe wouldn’t enjoy it because it’s been overhyped by everyone online, turns out it’s been hyped just about right, love the show.

Edit: So we actually finished it yesterday! What a shit way to end the series, can’t wait to watch the movie now.

I’ve seen it when I was a kid, though I don’t remember much and I haven’t had any context.

I mean, Mengele had positive effect on medicine, doesn’t make him a “bad guy with some redeeming qualities”. Same with the people deciding stuff in huge corporations.

neither of them are completely diabolically evil

You sure? I don’t see any redeeming qualities in Disney nor Nintendo.

Time very much isn’t a human construct, it’s a physical existing thing.

Is it? Granted, I don’t know where OP is from, but in my country 18 doesn’t change much. High school for most ends when they’re 19 or 20, so life does speed up after that, but 18 doesn’t really change anything except being allowed to drive and drink alcohol (not at the same time).

Save me!
