EarWorm,

You’re mixing things up. Satanism never believed in literal Satan, that’d be Satan’s /Devil’s Worshippers, a completely different group of people. “Satanism” was the word used by the ignorant western (mostly US) media during the “Satanic panic” during the '80s-'90s, and it stuck. The Satanic Bible, to which your “modern atheist Satanism” refers to, was written in '69. Nothing to do with literal Satan.

EarWorm,

Holy hell, I learned something today. Might be a matter of a language barrier, since in my native language the word “Satanism” by definition refers to LaVeyan Satanism, and there’s a distinct word for Satan’s/Devil’s worshippers. No idea how that happened.

EarWorm,

What do you mean? They’re just songs about nice things, like bringing your own beer to a party, jumping on a pogo stick and shimmying until the break of dawn, yeah. Oh, and cocaine. Lots of cocaine.

EarWorm,

Oh okay, thanks! Learned something new today

EarWorm,

To be fair, the Bible has been translated and censored so many times that no one knows what was originally in there.

EarWorm,

I opened a link. biblehub.com/numbers/5-21.htmHow do you get abortion instructions from that? Do better.

EarWorm,

Wait, Anthony Kiedis!? That’s news to me.

EarWorm,

Not sure if this applies, but people still seem to think that Nine Inch Nails covered Hurt by Johnny Cash and not the other way round. That or they haven’t even heard the original.

EarWorm,

I hate these headlines. Fucking Half Life 3 could be announced.

EarWorm,

If that floats your boat, give Fear of the Dark by Graveworm a listen. Iron Maiden lends itself really well to dark metal.

EarWorm,

I literally bought a vape so I wouldn’t smoke in my car. It’s quite a bit easier to sell a car that smells like raspberries than one that smells like an ashtray.

EarWorm,

Näkyykö HD-merkityt kanavat? Jos kyllä, niin pitäis toimia. Itsellä on älytelkkari, mutta nettiyhteys menee pelkästään VPN:än kautta. Tällä hetkellä “etusivulla” mainostetaan Saksalaisia leffoja ja käyttökielenä on englanti. VPN:ien hinnat on nykyään aika kohtuullisia, ja saat suhteellisen helposti halvemmankin reitittimen ohjaamaan kaiken liikenteen sen kautta. Ainakin isommilla VPN tarjoajilla on ohjeet omilla sivuilla, itse käytän SurfSharkia.

EarWorm,

Not a thumbs up, it was a guideline back in the day that if the mushroom cloud was smaller than the thumb of your outstretched arm, you were not in immediate danger. Or something along those lines. Pedantic needs fulfilled.

EarWorm,

Oh yeah, I didn’t realize that 100% of Fallout related posts are referencing the show and not the games for the foreseeable future. My bad.

EarWorm,

Late to the party, but if you do turn your bottom fans around, remember to keep the desk/floor/whatever your PC is on clean. We can all pretend to actually clean the bottom filters regularly, but we know that’s not true and the filter will turn into a wall in a few weeks. Also why my only intakes are on the front where the filter is just magnetic.

EarWorm,

I have heard similar complaints about performance from my friends, and I have solved most of them by simply suggesting they check their fans. Not just case fans, but the GPU/CPU, too. Check that they’re actually spinning and getting adequate airflow. Unplug and then vacuum them. You’d be surprised how much of a difference that can make.

Can't log in with anything (lemmy.world)

So I’ve had this account for 21 days, and the only way I have managed to log in was with “forgot password” and resetting it each time using Firefox. I have also tried with mobile apps, i.e. Jerboa, Liftoff and Connect. Jerboa tells me that the login is incorrect, the others say that my email hasn’t been verified. The...

YSK: Most "Energy Optimization Services" for buildings are scams.

I’ve been working as an automation technician for around 5 years now, and I’ve come across several services that promise a substantial improvement in energy efficiency when it comes to heating, especially involving district heating with water. Most of these are subscription services....

EarWorm,

On NG+, Eleonora’s Poleblade gave me such a cathartic experience I can’t even put it into words. Pretty sure I smiled all the way through.

A way to automatically apply a colour profile when HDR is enabled?

I have an Asus PG27AQDM OLED monitor, and the out-of-the-box HDR experience is, well, atrocious. I can make it look better, almost perfect, by messing around with Nvidia control panel, but those settings obviously look awful with HDR disabled. So, is there a way to automatically apply different profiles according to the colour...

EarWorm,

What kind of a psychopath games on windowed mode?
