@sufi Many people don't know much about other religions. Islam has an interesting history, and for centuries the most advanced centers of knowledge were in islamic areas.

Including Al-Andalus, modern day Andalucia, the most civilized place in dark ages Europe.

@LennartMathiassen Really feel the need for a Bookmarks feature. Glitchsoc already has it.

Favoriting one's post, for bookmark or for promoting? curiosity.

@Zergling_man @p_mulchandani
Yes, you can join another instance if you like.

Although it would be for specific reasons - like making posts that you feel are sensitive, or more focused in one of your interests.

Also, to keep an account that is more private than your primary one.

I do have two instances now, and each is running on its own tab on my browser. Just do it if you feel a need, otherwise it's better to concentrate on enjoying and participating in one instance more actively.

Very cool, nice to know what your ancestors did, we lose that history so easily over time.

I enjoyed visiting both my paternal grandparents home villages in their home country, a couple years ago. Very emotional moment, arriving there for the first time, after wondering what their places were like.

They never returned once they left, sadly.

It would be really nice to have a choice of operating systems on mobile devices that wasn't one of the two major us corporations.

There might be some hope with the coming Pine phone, maybe?

Being a sys admin / instance host is not an easy job!

This totally explains why. A current thread developing today.

@11112011 The person pushing for them is the one that called himself the "Debt King", and went bankrupt three times in the 90s.

American Banks wouldn't even consider talking to him about any credit, after the losses that infliced on them, all those failed casinos.

He likes easy money, we save what we can and hand it to the banks for safekeeping; to get no reward, interest, at least the same as rate of inflation?

Insanity. The next year is going to be epic, a tough one.

@Jojothegoodperson Every time you do this sort of thing, people get upset with you. Then they complain to me and I tell you that I'll ban you if you don't stop. So I have to warn you and then I have to apologize to people, then I ask why and your explanation ("I hate them", "I was mad", etc.) amounts to "I did it because I felt like it". You threatened to kill someone's children. That'd be enough for a ban. You say you'll stop, and you stop for a while but you start back up again.

There are very few rules here and you keep breaking them. This creates problems for me and I have better shit to do with my time. My options are to ban you or to spend time handling problems you create because you fail to listen to this very simple recommendation: if someone tells you to leave them alone, leave them alone. Do I need to ban you in order to prevent this from happening again?

@11112011 The FED is supposed to be independant, as are most other Central Banks... just sayin...

us pol. NOT confirmed. Analysis. 

from the article. Which does make sense, as pressure must be immense.

"Trump's unannounced medical appointment resurrected theories that the president's health is not as good as he says.

Trump sought to allay fears about his health during his presidential campaign, releasing a letter from his long-time personal doctor—Dr. Harold Bornstein—which lauded Trump's "astonishingly excellent" condition and claimed he would "unequivocally" be the healthiest president in history.

Bornstein has since told NBC News that the president wrote the letter himself. In 2017, Bornstein also claimed that Trump aides turned up unannounced at his office and removed files relating to the president."
