Welcome to #nostr!
You might enjoy the podcast Haunted Cosmos. Two Christian guys exploring the paranormal. Interesting, entertaining, sometimes unnerving. Even if you don't believe any of it you may still find it a worthwhile listen. Few of the episodes are sequential so you can bounce around to any topics that are of interest.
Will it support login via Amber?
Looking good. Might be worth finding a way to integrate the B more into the design. Maybe putting it in a rising sun? Or having the hills overlap it a touch.
Yes please 🎄
Outsourcing various responsibilities is inevitable, for sure. But there are plenty of things that shouldn't be outsourced, or should not by wholly outsourced.
Also, there is a difference between wheat production and wheat custody. I buy my wheat from a farmer and take it home. I don't want him to grow it for me AND hold it for me.
Lighthearted way of saying that outsourcing responsibility over elections work is like outsourcing responsibility over managing one's own bitcoin stack.
Better to improve the process internally than trust a "third party" (in this case, another country) to handle it for us. :)
The elections equivalent of using a custodian rather than improving one's own self custody methods and model 😉
What do you find entertaining about them?
Laws, rules, and regulations have shifted over time, state by state, as it concerns both registration and voting deadlines. This has historically been true of absentee ballots of various kinds. Then there are differences in laws about how votes are tabulated, verified, processed, etc. But the biggest culprit, as i understand it, is the explosion of vote by mail from 2020 onward. As has been pointed out, this is what has likely caused CA to be so slow.
While I absolutely believe that there is both petty and high level fraud in elections, the likeliest reason CA is still counting is VBM and probably poor rules/regulations around the entirety of the voting process. It isn't that they *can't* do better—they are a one party state, it would be easy for them to make sweeping changes to improve the process if they want to—it is that they have no incentives to do so. In fact, they probably have incentives *not* to do so.
Correct. I operate out of a Biblical view of the world and therefore see no evidence in Scripture that would suggest a departed loved one would have the ability (or even desire) to return to the earth, for any reason, prior to the New Earth to come.
To clarify, though, I'm not saying *all spiritual activity* is evil, just that most of what we would place in the category of paranormal activity is evil.
I do. But with the caveat that most paranormal activity—including ghosts—is just demons.
They look good
I would love to be a part of an Alexander film or miniseries if the opportunity arose. I've wanted to see a solid film on him for years, and I did truly want Stone's to be good.I know what goes into making a film and take no delight in just about any film turning out poorly, especially of that caliber.
