@freemo @pwinn it was for gay marriage. As we had a discussion earlier, according to Quran anal sex between two men is forbidden. There are many things however which are forbidden like stealing an this but not everything which is forbidden also preventing from it is enforced. For example drinking or using anything which draws one out of its usual self, like alcohol or cigarettes, is forbidden. but drinking alcohol has punishment only if you go in public while you are drunk.

@freemo @pwinn I think I, as a Muslim, am one those with backwards ideas and so is my Christian friend :)

@farooqkz

Same reason gay marriage is illegal in some countries... because some people vastly out of touch with reality have some very backwards ideas

@pwinn

What Bluetooth SoC do you suggest which supports interrupts and has reasonable power consumption?

@pwinn

Its also an issue if post hic ergo procter hoc. People with violent tendencies are likely to play more violent games and enjoy it more. Nonviolent people may find them less interesting

Please boost even if this isn't for you. On Mastodon, favoriting is not like 'liking' on the other site. All it does is it tell the writer you liked it, there is no algorithm.

@freemo @pwinn

BTW, do we have a common agreement on what "violent" is?

I consider these violent:

- Killing scenes in a way which are so realistic
- Raping scenes
- Decapitation scenes especially if they are so realistic.
- cutting of organs especially if they are so realistic

@freemo @pwinn

Do you have any research supporting your opinion? I would like to read about them.

@pwinn @freemo

For everyone violent video games are harmless or for the right ages? E.g. a 18+ video game is harmless for people at least 18 and older.

Great story from a friend. If you cannot read Persian, you might want to use a Machine translator.

@farooqkz @rogueren I don't think that is really true or at least it would need more research than guessing. There are clients that have 3 more features and Element has 5 more features than those clients. Since features come in different sizes, it really matters what features you need in the comparison than the raw count. By default Element doesn't have pinned messages, custom emotes, status messages, knocking, tags, stories and a few more things. Many others do have that.

@rogueren

Spaces in Matrix don't exactly work like Discord guilds. They just group a few Matrix rooms into one.

@rogueren

Yeah that would count. Regarding locking rooms(like channels) to certain roles, I make the rooms private and invite whoever I wish. But Matrix doesn't have guilds like Discord does. Recently however, Spaces has been added with which one can group several rooms into one space(and possibly other spaces, too). But they aren't an alternative to Discord servers/guilds.

@deepbluev7 @rogueren

Oh wow I didn't know. But I think Element is yet the most feature complete client out there.

@rogueren I don't know about emotes but doesn't support roles like does. And I don't think roles are such a super useful feature which makes people leave Matrix for Discord. I think what Matrix currently lacks are good and efficient server and client softwares. The protocol is rapidly changing and it's not easy for developers to keep up to date. So we have only one server software which supports every feature and only one client software in the same state.

@centaury The only reason I had on my phone was that I had to be in university related groups. Now the regime during the protests(related tag: )has censored both whatsapp and and now all those groups have moved to so I don't have it on my phone anymore.

The same would happen for me with which is a fork of

If you think Element is feature complete but buggy, unstable and slow, we think just like each other! But I haven't looked for other options, yet.
