Big warning on moving to Brazil for science. Getting lab materials takes forever to get delivered and frequently just never arrives. I had a roommat do her last year of PhD research in the us because work was so much faster here due to how much better and more reliable logistics are.

Pretty much this. Met him once. He's has no scandals, he's just kind of a rude guy.

I had a friend tell a story once about how he was on a field trip and the class found out Bill Nye was in the building. But once Bill found out kids were on the way he escaped out a window to avoid them. I'm not sure how true that is, but its kinda funny.

I'm living in Europe and all my debt is in USD. The collapse of the dollar is pretty bitter sweet.

What's crazy to me is that many of the railroads still exist and are used... But for freight only.

Because i live on the 4th floor of an apartment complex... i guess anything is possible, but sneaking out several doors and back would be impressive.

Like everyone else said, pixels are the best phones for non stock OS. You can unlock them easy and they are quick to release security updates so the open source security nerds who made graphene OS (the best open source OS) love pixel phones.

The problem with newer Samsung (post 2021 is update) is they don't allow you to unlock the bootloader (at least for US phones). This pretty much squashes your ability to put a new OS on it.

DivestOS is no longer maintained, RIP. Long live Calyx.

I don't know what you're trying to argue here. Do you want my opinion? The opinion of Christians? The opinion of people who view nature to be god?

In my opinion, no. Obviously not. But I also am not a Christian.

People have free will, because that is the greatest good, but not freedom of consequences (even from god) when they behave bad with that free will. Even though they behave bad, if bad is an objective scale, their bad bahvior was still less bad than having no free will. On this scale, god not punishing them for their bad behavior is more bad than gods punishment. So, because he always has to let the most good thing happen he both has to allow free will and people to do bad and also punish people for doing bad even though he knows they will be bad and he could prevent it. Again I think it's bs, and there's a lot of bad logic in Christianity, but that's their subjective stance (usually but, like you said, not a monolith). It "works" because good and bad isn't something you can logic out very wrll since it's highly subjective.
