I guess that's funny because it's a thoughtful statement juxtaposed against the mindless, idiotic rhetoric of the other side? I'm sure she's said things that were actually dumb. it's just funny to me that something actually kind of poetic and deep gets so much hate.
I migrated from Hg to Git a few years back, only because BitBucket forced my hand and most of the hosted CI tools stared dropping support for Mercurial.
But I still prefer Hg over Git.
European here: rationally it may make no sense at all, but my gut feelings made me ditch Amazon Prime and replace a Kindle reader with a Kobo in February.
I’ve always used kobo because kindle seemed much more closed, but god is it a shit device…
I can’t count the number of times it got almost bricked, either not turning on or being stuck on a loader forever, and I’ve had to somehow do a full reset (which loses reading progress on all books ofc). It’s happened many times over 3 different devices, every time I pick it up I don’t know if it’s going to work.
At least twice it refused to turn on _in the plane on my first day of holiday_, a day after I loaded new books. Useless for the whole trip. Inexcusable.
Would still pick it over kindle, but it’s out of hate for Amazon, not love for kobo.
Evangelical American Zionism hates Jewish people with a thin facade of support. A disturbingly large amount of Americans believe that it's prophecy and God's will that the Middle East be "cleansed in fire" and that Israel's role as the Jewish state is an essential part of the plan. It is the same support a farmer offers to pigs when they fill their trough with slop. They want Israel so they can see its destruction through nuclear war.
It is a disgusting viewpoint and essential to understanding American Zionist support of Israel. My (lifelong far-right conservative jack-Mormon) father shared this with me 25 years ago.
It is not "negative free will". Quantum Randomness allows us to move the force behind the outcomes into non-physical world; you can call it soul, if you inclined so.
FlowingEdge Home Edition auto-discovers the devices in the same group, supports auto-resume of the file transfer, supports sharing from other mobile apps, isolates devices in the same network but belonging to different groups, works natively on iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, Linux.
There are free apps (mainly web apps) that can compete on some of the features, but we feel that our app has an edge on usability and practicality. Last but not least we need to pay ourselves :-)
