Endorkend, to politics in Texas education leaders unveil Bible-infused elementary school curriculum

Nah, all schools in my home town are Ursuline schools with the one I went to named after Saint Amandina, who was an Ursuline nun, as she was from the part of town the founders of the school were from.

These nuns have a nack for education and healthcare (a crapton of hospitals here are Amandina founded) and if I recall correctly, even founded some liberal arts schools in the US at some point.

From what I understand from the nuns I've been in contact with through the years, they aren't as bookish as Jesuits, but are 100% behind the idea that "if you teach people the whole picture, they will eventually find God" as the sheer wonder of the universe to them can only mean their deity exists.

Rather than the US Christian way of "indoctrinate to the level of making some people incapable of interacting with a modern society, so they have no choice but to believe whatever we believe".

Does it happen often, other than by a presidential tier candidate, that one single representative tier politician makes multiple districts flip?

That's how religious classes went in the Catholic school I went to.

Had a legit Catholic priest as my teacher, he educated us in the history and beliefs of all major and quite a few minor religions (and some extinct ones) and not once told us any one of them was better than the other or we should chose Catholicism over anything else.

It was mostly just History class but rather than "what happened" as the context, "what did people believe".

I disagree.

Nazi had principles and stood for something. Horrible somethings, but something.

These fucks don't stand for anything, they want to stir up shit and when money starts talking to them, they are really quick to throw any espoused principles straight out a 5th floor window.

@Endorkend@kbin.social avatar

Not even one of those points will accelerate Linux adoption to being with a decade of the snowballing level at which point it could Dethrone Windows.

Endorkend, to linux in How do you make Linux more popular?
@Endorkend@kbin.social avatar

Might we considered there may be a tiny difference in scope between an OS and an app like Armory Crate.

@Endorkend@kbin.social avatar

Because they'd need to support it or hire an assload of developers to bugfix and contribute to the projects they include in their distro.

And that's something those companies don't like doing.

System76 is a hardware vendor specifically created to cater to the Linux sphere.

I guess they mean "how to make buggy messy often usermade Desktop distributions more popular."

As Linux itself is insanely popular, it's everywhere and runs everything. From the vast majority of server and network infrastructure to most phones.

She's an open white nationalist.

How is her being racist any sort of surprise or questioned?

Endorkend, to games in I Want Better Games With Worse Graphics And I'm Not Kidding - Aftermath
@Endorkend@kbin.social avatar

Thing is, looking at some games, Horizon and Elden Ring being a prime examples, we can have both great games with great graphics.

You don't really want better games with worse graphics, you want better games that don't use great graphics as an excuse to bad gameplay.

They get cheap oil, cheap gas, cheap minerals, cheap everything out of Russia.

They don't care Putin wins or loses, they do care about getting all that cheap loot.

All of Europe is an Ally.

This perk is pretty much reserved for Israel and Israel only.
