@FrMatthewLC Would you say intention to be possessed or let the devil in is also necessary condition for reasonable worry? I find it hard to believe someone doing an action purely out of sarcastic mockery of the devil, experimentation, or innocence is likely to be possessed, but idk.

In theory, almost anything could be a means for the devil to possess someone. However, ordinary things like driving, smoking cigarettes, listening to love songs, shopping at Walmart, etc. are so astronomically unlikely that it's spiritually unhealthy to worry about them. The devil is real & we should avoid pagan rites that invite him in or similar, but we shouldn't worry about possible possession from ordinary moral or relatively neutral actions.

@VicVijayakumar Just sounds like extra work. Why wash it with soap when you dont have to

unironically this is how you should wash your cast iron skillet. it's fine.

@TACIXAT @sircalebhammer The older I get the more I realize blocking is freedom. There's so many people on social media, the only way to ensure you hone in on the ones you enjoy speaking with is to start blocking the noise

@sircalebhammer he blocked anyone who liked a tweet making fun of a book list he posted, definitely deserves some of what he gets

What did he do? I feel like the internet just decides to hate someone after they are popular long enough, for no reason.

@lapislagoons Cause he's not a visionary, just a revisionist

you ask a guy what he’s looking for in a woman and he tells you about his ex

@wookash_podcast The 2nd harry potter was one of my favorite games

My dear friend has mocked me for liking old Harry Potter games (1 & 2, though 3 is ok as well). Were these games any good, or is it just nostalgia? His stance is "if it wasn't well-known IP you wouldn't like it". He generally stays away from games that licensed IP - HP, LOTR, Warhammer, etc. Cause he wants to play games for **their core game ideas**, not to play "reskins" of popular game mechanics with known characters. But I'm like, bro, Harry Potter 2, with its all secrets, silver cards, quidditch, was crazy good! Had so much mystery, the magic was basic, yet it was exactly what 7/8/15 year old me wanted. Does anyone remember these games, and being older at that time, can wage in, and offer their take - were they plain games with "stolen" / "adapted" mechanics from other works, or were there original games, that happened to license popular IP?

Startup idea: a program manager that changes your passwords every "insert interval". Shrink the interval based on the speed of encryption methods. Is this a dumb idea? Im not a computer whiz

@Ragnazero000 @beautyskillz Ill check it out, ty. On the cover he looks like the guy from Pluto 😆

@HenrySpragge @beautyskillz Really is an incredible show. You should check out Monster, too if you haven't 🙂‍↕️

Can someone please recommend a anime series that's actually addictive, the kind that makes people stay up all night and finish season one in a sitting???????

@Ragnazero000 @beautyskillz First person (other than myself) that ive ever seen mention Pluto! Such an amazing anime. That and Goodnight World are the two that got me addicted to anime.

@beautyskillz Pluto. An adult murder-mystery adaptation of an arc from Astro Boy. Made by the same guy who made Mondyer if you've ever seen that. Trigun: Stampede is a remake of the classic show. Its 3D, so if that turns you off then don't watch it, but it's extremely good.

Why is it that apps only have glitches and bugs when you are trying to do something not in their interest 🤨

@BrianSpragge @greg16676935420 The planets have aligned

@BrianSpragge @greg16676935420 🤣

Did you know? The “M” on top of a McGriddle represents the first letter of McDonalds which is “M”

I dont want a whole ass bottle man, just poor a cup of water, is it that hard. I understand its complimentary, but really?!? Its expected when one chooses which airline to go with and drinks and good service are advertised. Do better @Delta

To the back letting then know "hey can I get some sparkling water, I was passed up on the drinks call, they just walked by" and dude gives attitude, opens cupboard and a bottle of pelligrino falls out. He picks it up and frustratingly hands it saying "here, just take this."...

Bro, fuckin @Delta , they walk right past me during the drink call ignoring me. No biggey, just a mistake. So I put my service button on, no one comes up to the front, one of them sees it while picking up trash, still nothing just stays in the back. So I get up and walk...

@BrianSpragge @vaxryy Dang, missed this, could have easily met up yesterday, though we were pretty tired ngl 😅. On bus back to airport rn

@vaxryy @HenrySpragge meetup

I'll be jetlagged to fuck tomorrow in dublin but I am working on lua for hyprland shits gon be lit

@BrianSpragge @ObsoleteSony 🤣

@ObsoleteSony Return of the King with @HenrySpragge Now that I say it, it might get a little boring after the fourth play through.

If you could only play one PS2 game for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Im crying rn. I asked it to create a 3D living spartan, and now he's beating me up and im dying 😭

nature.com/articles/s4158… Imagine what we can do once we can scale this up. We could model a person's brain and then study it on a computer. Note: this is not "uploading a brain", its "simulating a brain".

@CryptoCyberia Do they have more than one prequel line up? Im thinking of Baldurs Gate 1: Dark Alliance. Was a top down real time fighting game like Diablo IV

@HenrySpragge Yeah BG1 and 2 ran on DnD rules as well, so I think gameplay in BG3 is similar, unless I am mistaken somewhere

So... I know gaming is beyond terrible these days, but I know that Baulder's Gate 3 was lauded on release, and I absolutely loved the first 2 games. Is it actually good?
