@SuperDicq >Normies using Linux on top of proprietary operating systems does not help us with anything.
and neither is nagging on them to use some super esoteric setup gonna do anything, if they want to use the easy stuff they are gonna use the easy stuff, me personally, i just pick what works, because i recognise and work on my moral failings that are all substantially higher on the list than "using software with a restrictive license", i avoid google like the plague and remove the stuff i don't like, but i don't lose hairs about it, and neither does anybody else, i know there is some level of google nonsense i have to deal with, and it's whatever, i removed most of the problem, 80% of the problem gone with 20% of the effort.
>Android for example has made Linux into one of the most widely used kernels in the world.
>Has this brought us any advancements in terms of software freedom?
no but it makes a mid operating system (not that i thing smartphones are an invention that brought much "pros" to my life) yeah there is proprietary parts to the whole operating system, but it is an "operating system", it doesn't need to be fully free, just mostly free as to get the benefits a person has when using free software.
but the question here is, how does people start using an operating system that is more free, rather than all proprietary, harm the free software movement? it would get more support, and more people would be knowledgeable.
and then the question is? is the problem here that it is harmful to free software movements? or is the problem that pewdiepie failed to properly portray free software, and the movement? thus getting people into a sort of uneducated expectation?

Pewdiepie advised a lot of people to get into Linux and Fosstards still are ungrateful for it.
you need to understand, those people don't want some thinkpad librebooted device with fully free graphics drivers, they just want to use something easy to pick up and better, Linux is now easy to use, minimal drawbacks for a lot of people and some, just straight up none.
to everyone their idea of linux is the practical considerations, less nagging and garbage on the screen, smoother, and more privacy are the benefits they are looking for, they couldn't really give any less of a shit about software ethics, let alone software copyright ethics.
and the "Gnu/Linux" and "Free software" language police is pretty dumb too, the point of language is to convey an idea, i understand autism drives you to care about all this stuff, but you end up making people think you are stupid, because why WOULD they care about specific language, they just don't wanna get raped in the ass by MS that's all there is to it.

@BowsacNoodle oh yeah, Thomas not believing at first sure was a sign of unbelief, but i think it's also important to focus on a lesson we can learn from him.
the difference between wanting knowledge and wanting proof.
i certaintly didn't believe in God i would say 5 years ago (i would say since i have been agnostic before i converted).
but the thing that made me go insane is that i can't get a straight answer of whether there is a God or there isn't, eventually i started researching and after reflecting on my life and the world around me, i realized there is, but in the beginning it was this demand for knowledge that got me further.
my faith got multiplied in strength after i set on it questions (not in a way testing God) because i believed that there would be an answer to every one of these questions, and that it would stay perfectly consistent, and everytime i did i would get an Answer that makes sense and ties it stronger together, my faith got stronger because i wanted to believe in it.
i realized especially how amazing it is when other people, after they found out i am converting, asked me a lot of these "atheist gotcha" questions, and i was just able to answer them all, and i was able to learn more from my own answers there.
it *is* "written in our Hearts", without a doubt.

@BowsacNoodle GM fren, it is a good reminder that the Faith is held strong not just because of what we have on Earth as the physical, but also the Spiritual, we believe in the Lords Good News more than just what "evidence" we have on him here, but also because we know in our Hearts that his teachings are the truth.
today i had a little discussion in the cafe after Service about this too, but i think won't be making a thousand word long post again lel.
Praise the Lord!

damn... i was hoping they would start doing better now, however, i think even if a pope was liberal they would still be under pressure to give into the younger Catholic Generation, which i heard is much more Zealous than previous Generations.
i don't think the papacy can get away with spewing outright heresy for long, a lot of those newer Caths weren't always Cath, so they went out of their way to study, and won't take the popes word when it straight up contradicts scripture

i was very excited to read the old testament, especially since Genesis was honestly an amazing read, but now i am reading Leviticus and it's stuff life:
"on tuesday nights, you have to wear red, on thursday nights you have to wear blue, but on every 4th tuesday, you must wear green, however, if you do not have green, then it is acceptable to wear yellow, assuming you alos wear blue pants with it" for like 3 chapters straight

@kaia another thing that is great with me going Catholic, and dating Catholic is that for me no Sex (and sexual contact) being not allowed before marriage is a super good thing, i did consider how it helped me in that department.
i have made big leaps when it comes to my Gynophobia, i can talk to women pretty comfortably now, pretty much without stress, among groups of women i can handle myself too, maybe a bit awkward but it's nothing compared to being unable to breathe.
something that held me back from making any big moves is the fear of Bodily Contact (really anything beyond a handshake), if i actually start a relationship then i won't be able to, or fail to satisfy my partner, and the excuses would all be partially a failing of my initiative.
if i date Catholic, if there was a situation where she makes a move, i can just go to the Bible, and there it is, i can't do that before marriage, now i am fully convinced that that is wrong to do, and even if i were comfortable with that, then i shouldn't.
of course if i marry someone it would be because i am comfortable and trust them, and i did it of my own initiative and pure choice, that's for the best, not only for my mental health, but also for the Lord

@kaia >sounds like you found a great place! choir is great idea.
it is insanely fun, especially since i was already looking to sing, but the feeling of community definitely is what makes it amazing here
>depending on whether you are looking for a partner, those older ladies can probably set you up as well
for a partner maybe in the future, if i do definitely after i get baptized (octobre), right now i am too focused on the faith itself, making sure i read up on the bible and research as much as i can, because if i get a partner now then it would probably distract me from the faith.
and i do wonder how appealing to women the concept of "Catholic Grandma approved Date" is, like sure they know i do firefighting and all that, but still i wonder if anybody takes that deal at all.
but for now i am still in the faith, and the focus is there for now, Dating can wait until after i properly set myself in the faith and started working proper

@kaia oh it's Novus Ordo, but the priest keeps a good job when it comes to focus, it's always about the Faith, compared to when we visited a Evangelacist church which was very dry in actual "God", those ones exclusively were "you should be charitable i guess" but none of the other important lessons on the christian lifestyle.
my Parish is very fun to be in, it's an excellent time, i started participating a lot more in the parish since i joined the choir, and they were very welcoming, it's mostly elderly there, and they are very very happy to see someone young start to participate with the faith, especially since i have been taking the faith very seriously.
maybe a bit embarrassing, but they also called me "a Blessing" to have in the Parish.
when i started to participate regularly, slowly after attendance started to increase too, which i am happy that is happening.
i am not attributing it to me ofc, i think i am part of a more general shift within my generation, i was tired of secularism, individualism and Materialism, but i also did feel a need for God, and the more i read and learn the more i am convinced it is the truth.
