    Jephthah. Judges 10:30-40.

    Guy returns from war after vowing to God that if he made him victorious he would “sacrifice to him the first to greet him upon his arrival home” or something like that.

    God doesn’t directly ask it. But his daughter comes to greet him first. And well God doesn’t stop it.

    It’s obviously all nonsense. There isn’t a god. This is a story about some delusion guy that murdered his daughter after winning a battle. But still.

    The bible is filled with blood sacrifice stories like this.



  • Ok then America should be a smaller collection of native states that the white settlers genocided.

    I agree in principle. But you can’t reverse history to what it SHOULD have been.

    Self determination is I assume your point. Which I’m all for. But that is only as good as how well those states can continue to defend their sovereignty. You break up Russia and then it’s just a bunch of small defenseless states that the rest of the world with pick apart for resources as they’ve done with Ukraine.














  • I changed to the projectivity launcher on my Android TV and it was night and day in terms of performance. No ads. The UI doesn’t change every other week to make me look at some new show I don’t care about. I can literally just hide everything I don’t want to see.

    I should probably look into actual entire OS swaps available for my TV but I don’t have the time. Changing the launcher and using ADB (over lan) to disable updates and apply some optimizations was worth the day it took me.

    Turns out the hardware on the TV is fine. The software was just complete garbage and got worse with every update.

    Now if only I could fix the UI in the actual apps like YouTube. But still it’s a lot better. I’ll probably install the YouTube alternative app one day when I have time.

    My wife started using the TV over her tablet after I changed it. She said she hated how slow it was to just turn on and start that she just would go to her tablet instead.
