Is there any real physical proof that Jesus christ ever existed?
  • several contemporary documents all point to the existence of a guy named something like Joshua

    IIRC, there's really only a single mention of a possible link to someone of this name that was crucified at the supposed time, and that single mention happened at least 50 (maybe 100?) years later, and there's evidence that this passage was added even later.

    So I didn't think it's true that there are "several contemporary documents" like you claimed...

  • Used VPN for cheaper YouTube Premium? Congrats, your subscription has been canceled
  • You're getting down voted, but you are mostly correct.

    I feel like the amount of ads and/or length is a little excess these days, though.

    The thing is, Google isn't dumb. They've user tested this strategy and they know it results in higher revenue.

    And the enshitification continues...for those that don't pay

  • Texas asks people to avoid using their cars
  • As a fellow former Texas resident, I can confirm and endorse this statement.

    The Texas government can fuck alllll the way off with that...and many other things cough cough women's rights cough cough

  • Nathan Wade resigns after judge says Fani Willis and her office can stay on Trump Georgia 2020 election case if he steps aside
  • Bruh, when I say something along the lines of "what people usually make in this position for cases of this magnitude", it literally begs to be compared to "OTHER" cases.

    Comparing the lead prosecutors salary to supporting prosecutors salaries means very little in that context.

    It's like me saying "CEOs in this industry tend to make a lot more than this CEO was making" and then you saying " This CEO was making a lot more than his CFO, and his secretary, which is outrageous!"

    While I might agree, it's not exactly pertinent to the point I was making about lead prosecutors on cases of a similar magnitude...

  • I think you may have missed the connection to the first amendment.

    I assumed you believed in the conspiracy theory "slippery slope", I was wondering why you think the slope isn't slippery for the first amendment, but just the second?

  • Sorry, I said hate speech as an example, but you are correct, hate speech is generally only used as a way to increase sentences of people that commit other hate crimes.

    However, there are many instances that speech is limited by the government, and they don't violate the first amendment.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_free_speech_exceptions#%3A~%3Atext%3DCategories_of_speech_that_are%2Claw%2C_true_threats%2C_and_commercial?wprov=sfla1

    So, I ask again with the new context:

    We currently have limitations on free speech, and yet we still have free speech. And we currently have limitations on the second amendment (you can't own a nuclear or biological weapon legally).

    So how would a couple more limitations completely remove the right to own arms?

  • Hate speech is currently criminalized, in certain situations. And it hasn't resulted in the first amendment rights of all citizens being removed.

    So why would "well regulat[ing]" purchases of fire arms lead to the removal of 2nd amendment rights?

  • Mixed Feelings about Flat Screen on the 8 Pro

    It's a very nice screen, super bright and lovely to look at.

    I bought these screen protectors, and they are very easy to install, and look great!

    But part of me misses the curved screen. Something about it felt more premium and differentiated from the iPhone.

    I still love the 8 Pro though, and have zero regrets.
