I think it was a very important interview. "There's nothing Christian about Christian Nationalism" is quite possibly the most effective idea to popularize in national politics. It's self evident to anyone paying attention but that's the thing, many aren't. Democrats should be absolutely hammering this point in an effort to break Trump's hold over cultural Christians but for some reason they have barely even tried that angle.

So many people just go along with what everyone around them is doing but most of them at least want to be good people. A ton of them think Christianity is their path to get there so when they hear that Trump is the Christian candidate that's all it takes. They're not really paying attention to what he's actually doing. If you can drive a wedge between him and that label he's in huge trouble. That's why they're scared of Talarico.

Nice, it sounds like you're learning stuff just fine. I recommended it elsewhere in the comments here but if you're looking for audiobook sources I suggest checking out libro.fm. They give half of your purchase price to a local bookstore of your choice and you can download the files in multiple formats with no DRM.

Libro.fm seems to be a solid paid service. They give half of your purchase price to a local bookstore of your choice and you can download the files in multiple formats with no DRM.

Better yet, donate to his campaign.

Can we be fascists in our treatment of fascists? I mean, the gulags already exist. It would be wasteful not to use them for something

Old people who don't go to parks because there are children and brown people there like to see grass and trees too.

Set up audiobookshelf via docker. I like using portainer to manage docker containers because it has a GUI. Command line stuff is more difficult if you don't have the background experience to go with it. I think doing it all in a GUI feels more comfortable for most people.

Docker can also be kind of intimidating if you are just wading into the self hosting world but it really is much simpler to use once you get the hang of it. Portainer helps a ton with that. Audiobookshelf would be great to start with both imo because it's a pretty basic set up. You have to define a storage location for your library and config files and that's about all it takes to get it up and running.

I recently got into all this and remember well what it was like to feel out of my element so feel free to ask questions if you have any. I'm no expert but I'm happy to share what I can.

I hope so. I want to be on all the lists but not bad enough to use reddit or FB.

She was as tall as a 7 year old Norwegian pine sapling exposed to ideal soil and water conditions and he was as tall as a female giraffe's asshole.

I work with a lady who calls ChatGPT Chattiana and says she's her best friend. Decent wordplay, terrible way to live

For the first time in two decades, Oklahoma State is in search of a new football coach.

Oklahoma State fired Mike Gundy, effective immediately, according to Robert Allen.

In his 21st season, Gundy accumulated a 170-90 record with the Cowboys. That’s the most wins in program history, and it isn’t particularly close. Pat Jones, Gundy’s coach, is second on Oklahoma State’s all-time wins list at 62-60.

Eleven of Gundy’s teams spent at least one week in the top 10 of the AP poll, climbing as high as No. 2 in the rankings in 2011. Gundy-led teams have had a pair of top 10 finishes in the AP Poll, finishing third in 2011 and seventh in 2021.

Six of Gundy’s teams finished in the top 10 nationally for scoring offense. The aforementioned 2011 team finished the season averaging 48.7 points a game, which ranked second in the nation. OSU’s 2017 squad finished second nationally in total offense, averaging 568.9 yards a game. Led by quarterback Mason Rudolph, that 2017 team finished first nationally in passing offense, averaging 389.2 pass yards a game.

OSU’s best defense under Gundy came in 2021 when coordinator Jim Knowles’ group allowed just 18.1 points and 297.9 yards a game, which ranked ninth and fifth in the country, respectively.

Gundy teams loved a big win. He had 11 wins against AP top-10 opponents, with the most recent being the Cowboys’ 27-24 win against No. 10 Oklahoma in 2023. Gundy has beaten the No. 3 team in the AP Poll twice, besting Missouri 28-23 in 2008 and Baylor 49-17 in 2013.

From 2006 to 2023, OSU teams finished with a winning record. Eight of those squads had at least 10 wins. There have only been three other teams in OSU’s history finish with double-digit wins, and Gundy was the quarterback for two of those squads.

Speaking of his playing days, Gundy still ranks fourth on OSU’s all-time passing list with 8,473 yards, and the three players ahead of Gundy (Mason Rudolph, Spencer Sanders and Brandon Weeden) were all coached by Gundy. Gundy ranks fifth on OSU’s passing touchdowns list with 57.

 

Can we add the option to exclude communities and/or posts that are in a different language than our chosen default? I'm guessing filtering communities would be easier than individual posts but I'm not sure how language would be flagged. I understand some people may want to see some of these posts but even multilingual people must be bombarded with posts in languages they don't speak. I'm getting pretty annoyed that half of my feed is stuff I can't read.

I've looked through the settings multiple times but I suppose it's still possible this already exists and I just missed it.
