@2ck I'd say it, and I think most supervisors would just laugh if you did honestly.
Are you seriously going to sit there and dictate what god is, and the "history" around him as if you are preaching some fact with 0 humility... christ man i have no problem with your beleifs but you really have to cut the whole enlightened act because you are farther from it than most.
Feel free to share your religious opinion by all means I have no issue with that but when you dont preface these statements with things like "I believe" or "In my opinion" and instead recite them as if your some all-knowing being who is the one and only person holding some unquestionable truth, and all other interpretations are null and void that tells me right off the bat you haven't taken even the first step towards a spiritually enlightened state and care more about stroking your ego and feeling important.
Humility is the first step, consider no longer play acting the part and maybe heading down the path...
Nope, wrong again... ya know you really should try listening to what people say rather than just making assumptions up front then repeating yourself over and over.. might get you some actual enlightenment.
I give people the respect which they deserve and which puts the proper pressure on them and the world to be better people. Nothing about that suggests I am a mirror or a reflection of anyone, do you practice being clueless or is it just coming naturally to you.. **listen** to something other than your own voice...
Thank you exactly my point.. he didnt practice "unconditional love" .. he judged them and treated them how that judgement deserved.
While he may have killed off the bulk of a planet due to "cannabalism, sacrafice, etc" and not just rudeness, by comparison I am also not killing off an entire planet, or even an individual. My "punishment" is far less severe and entirely proportional.
Neat web UI control panel for servers I found
@metalcrow Tweets? what tweets, where do you think you are?
@biomedmax Ya know, the graphics arent nearly as bad as I'd expect from a ps2
@realcaseyrollins By the way have you checked to see if the server didnt just block your whole instance? They are VERY aggressive about blocking. They will block a server just for federating with other instances they dont like even if you do nothing wrong beyond that.
@realcaseyrollins Because you come across as conservative (not sure if thats accurate mind you) and she has blue hair.. you two are mortal enemies like cats and dogs by definition.
Wow you are really bending over backwards to be right...
No no one is making the decision for me, the decision is made, they get treated how they deserve.. they are making the decision **for themselves** how they get treated. I have **decided** they deserve the right to create the environment that they wish to live in.
Again, doesnt look like your reading (or maybe not good at listening I dunno) but it is **not** a service to self, it is a service to others and I explained quite clearly how and why, it enabled people to always be forgiven, to decide the environment they are in, and to discourage people who create harmful environments for others from doing so.. it is a service to others, not myself.
>If you make a decision to be service-to-others then you will be kind, forgiving, compassionate and of service to everyone you meet, regardless of how they treat you
Wrong, that is not a service to others, that is a service to self.. you are enabling other people to be cruel, thus harming others around you. At the same time you are placating them and acting nice so as to avoid your own conflict and therefore 2 worrying only about yourself and your own expiernce and ignoring the harm you are doing to both society and others by enabling cruel people.
A planet where people treat me with as much respect as I treat them, awesome! sounds amazing.
No idea about this whole undecided mumbo jumbo though, I decided pretty definitively and explained exactly what that decision was.. nothing is has been undecided.
It isnt a service to self path.. giving people an environemnt where THEY decide how they are treated based on how they treat others is a service-to-all.. one it allows people to always be forgiven should they make a mistake, apologize, and start treating others respectfully.. .two, it encourages people who act respectfully to be more common because people want a better environement, and thus creates a better environment for everyone...
What **you** are proposing is the servicing your self.. it avoids any conflic and enables cruel and horrible people to continuing behaving the way they do and ultimately makes the world a worst place for everyone.
I dont really give a damn about forces of darkness or whatever else. I have no issue treating people with the respect they earn. It gives them the power to determine how they are treated and ensures that those who act respecfully are rewarded for that.
When respect stops to be something earned then it stops having value.
> With forgiveness, compassion and unconditional love we increase the radiance of Love and Light of the One Infinite Creator in our vicinity.
The creator commited mass murder and filled off an entire planet of humans because of the way they were behaving, if anything I am following his example.
> Would you hold a child throwing a tantrum to the same standard as an adult having a bad day?
Yes I would, I would expect them to apologize and until they did they would remain punished.
I treat people how they deserve to be treated.. he acted with more than enough disrespect to be treated in like kind. If he doesnt want to be treated with animosity the first step is he apologizes, otherwise i will.
@hanswolters I think if block lists are to federate then it needs to be a bit more to it than that.. I federate with many servers where it would be more work to white list or opt-out on a case by case basis than the amount of spam I get. There is probably a better way to indicate whose additions to the block list i will trust by default and whose I would not. It would also be key that the specific posts which triggered the block be attached to the block list rather than a note (which I wouldnt trust as much).
under the right conditions I'd be willing to help out. The biggest issue would be how we might handle abuse where a server labels things as spam that someone else might not consider to be spam. But that seems solvable.
