Some other specifications i’m looking for are relatively light, and relatively modern; it’s not gonna be a gaming laptop but i’d still like to play some older games on it (e.g. civ 5, hoi4, morrowind, etc)

Familiarise yourself with hardware. Like you don't need a degree in engineering to understand.

That was probably the most embarrassing typo I ever made with autocorrect
>nah dawg, religion really do be "opium of the masses" aka a tool of political control. always was. it's why wars were fought in the name of god, and really, continue to be to this day.
Again it conservative religion, people also use religion to advocate for non-violence

In 100 years the whole world will be atheism, even if the revolution doesn't happen. All trends point to increasing atheism and irreligion worldwide, even in deeply religious countries like Saudi Arabia and Brazil.

thats assuming we continue to progress, regression is always possible

So you were lying when you said you weren't an atheist, Socrates?

The problem is that then you fall into a no-true-Scotsman fallacy where you have to evaluate every Christian creed based on some “pure Christianity” that never existed as before the formation of the Catholic Church you had various Christian sects with differing and often conflicting interpretations of the Bible, like the conflict between Monophysites and miaphysites which, although trivial to us, were taken by pre-modern Christians so seriously that it is said that the early Arab conquest of the Levant was largely possible thanks to the monophysites siding against the imperial Easter Roman Church at Constantinople.

And let’s not forget how the oldest physical inscription of Jesus Christ is derived from a marcionite church, and marcionites are deemed by mainstream Christians WORLDWIDE to be heretics on the account of their negation of the trinity and Christ’s physical nature (in contradiction with the Nicene creed and the council of Trent that affirms Christ’s dual divine-mortal nature and the trinity as interpolated from certain biblical passages).

So while I don’t think it’s productive on talking about what does and doesn’t count as “true meaning of Christianity”, it would be worthwhile to talk about how the average reactionary DGAF about the Christian faith, and instead simply projecting their own reactionary politics into Christianity, which is why “faithful Christians” will focus on culture war BS and divorce and other social issues, but never talk about debt jubilees and other relatively progressive aspects of the Bible.

What does that mean?

There have always been nostalgic older generations. Nostalgia did not dominate popular culture until now. The coolest decade was always the decade you were currently living in and the past decades always felt kind of outdated and hokey. It is only very recently that I have seen media that seems to portray past decades as the coolest and very little championing the current one.

An example would be Back to the Future. It's clearly operating partially on 1950s nostalgia, but its also operating on the feeling that the 1950s are outdated and hokey in comparison to the new, cool 1980s. This is not the spirit in which nostalgic products today are made.

I think there was a boom in anime investment at the time.

Bro this is a communist chan you should know its just enshittification ergo just one more thing capitalism is at fault for

As companies need to make more money they play it safer and thats how you get sequel and remake spam. As regular people get poorer they have to take less artistic risks and instead focus on creating lucrative art like drawing porn instead of anything groundbreaking.
art does suck nowadays and "muh nostalgia" is just a rhetoric that helps big money get away with making everything ass and poo

I don't know about that it's a very breadtube-era analysis of cultural decline. China don't exactly produce better culture right now, actually it's even more slopfied than what we have and a far cry from Hong Kong cinema's glory days.

I’ve got Schwab’s international index. No clue what the individual stocks are but it returns about 5% annually, although over the last 10 years it’s been returning about 8%. I used to also have US bonds but I found that pointless and moved that money to either index funds or my HYSA.

why do they even have diplomatic relations with so many countries? theres no way canada is a trade partner with bhutan

Sigma country, the rarest kind

The most mysterious country and ethnic group (?) for me. In such a globalized world they're one of the only ethnicity i havent met or know anything about, i assume they're some kind of Tibetans. I even met north koreans but no Buthanese. I heard they're mass emigrating to Australia since the late 2010.

bumping my own post so more people give me their inspirational stories

At what point is it okay to admit that this is not for me, I am completely unfit to live and it is time to just end it all?

>>776344
>I am completely unfit to live
You have spooked yourself.
There's no such thing as being fit or unfit to live. You are alive and get to consciously witness a small window of existence in this universe. Cutting that off is a waste.
Divorce yourself of spooks and seek joy.

Do you ever pee so much it starts becoming suspicious? Like, it does not usually take this long. How does all this liquid fit into me? Did I forget to pee yesterday? And it's not even barely dripping, it's the strongest stream you have ever seen, as if the pee itself was aware of your suspicions and was rushing to leave before you decided you had more important things to do.
