@admitsWrongIfProven It always makes me very happy when I hear that :)

@admitsWrongIfProven Wealth? We arent talking about financial charity, though those who hav emeans do that too... There is no wealth requirement to freemasonry, the charity is mostly a donation of ones time, not money.

@lucifargundam "welcome".. you a mason?

@admitsWrongIfProven I mean, my concern in that regard applies to any group that has membership... I have the same concerns joining a mastodon server (which is why I run my own) :)

@admitsWrongIfProven Also it isnt about finding "happiness"... The idea is to support eachother to be a better person and largely to spend timein the fraternity engaging in charitable work. In fact almost all of what they do outside the lodge is charity.

@admitsWrongIfProven Yup, always think for yourself. That is usually my concern with these sorts of things, they may demand falling in line in a way I may not agree with.

@admitsWrongIfProven I wouldnt say small... but a small enough portion of the population they cant fix the whole world on their own.

@admitsWrongIfProven If everyone on my block is a good person, why isnt the world a good place?

Because being good and effective in your little world isnt enough since you are so small in a big wide world.

@cambridgeport90 Thanks, given the charity aspect of the organization, and the focus on "bettering yourself" I appreciate that.

@cambridgeport90 Well I havent been accepted yet. But thank you.

@admitsWrongIfProven You only need to pay your local lodge if you want to be an active member, which is only once your accepted anyway.

@LouisIngenthron Except none of that is really needed .. you are talking about a specific way of installing something on a specific distro.. its outdated and not really how most system admins would do it.

For example all my servers run linux. You just use one of the many cool tools like traefik, never touch snap (in most cases youd probably use docker so you dont touch ANY dependencies), you dont even need to do the certs yourself they are obtained all automatically... A full infrastructure is up with a single command.

Even if we talk about the old bare metal way on ubuntu... windows doesnt even have a dependency management system at all like snap or apt. So its hard to see how it is better to have to manually go out and fetch one dependency after another, hope it all works, and deal with convoluted point and clicking GUI to find your way. At least in linux all your dependencies are pulled in in a single go.

YAY The #Freemasons got back to me about my application and we will be begining the first steps soon with a discussion! excited!

Hustler 6BTV. Here are pictures of when the old one was installed quite some time ago to give an idea of what it will look like when done:

@petrillic They are kinda both... i mean, he did win an election afterall. Gotta be kinda popular to do that. being popular doesnt mean you arent fascist though.

@Skepticat As someone who personally loves the symbolism and meaning of the original version of this flag, I would absolutely adopt this variation as well. Thanks stealing.
