@ayy @dwmatiz @roka @awg @lain Holy shit, I just read this whole thread and it gave me fractal cancer.

@dt My body feels heavier when I know that I am being dishonest with a person, or have done something wrong.

Having to sit on something terrible you've done is an act of bearing a heavy weight. Maybe it was artificially issued by religious values and fear of punishment, maybe it's also a sickening feeling for me to hurt someone I love. I think a constant depressive struggle helps move a process of renewal.

I take great pride in being a man of my word, and keeping promises.

@lain @awg @roka @dwmatiz @ayy Who is the goddess?

Does she have an anime avatar?

@dt I go with my gut. If it feels wrong, it's wrong. It's more of a primal impulse than anything else.

What usually gets me is when I make an argument, and realize I'm not arguing particularly well. I start to notice that maybe I know less than I think I do. I give serious consideration to what people tell me, and try to study what I was supposedly uninformed about.

@dt I'm not sure. I think it's just something where you just try to come up with answers on your own, and try to do the least harm to other people. Mistakes will be made, beliefs will be crushed and forged through lived experiences.

I'm trying to read a lot of philosophy to comprehend different points of view on peripheral subjects. Really, the only real evil that I recognize are different violent forms of seizing control over other people and what's theirs.

@dt I think there's something, but the nature of it is abstract, possibly elusive, and perhaps not itself relevant.

I like the idea that the universe is a mechanical computer, made from all matter and fields cross-interacting, and that maybe the whole thing is just god.

I rather admire Daoism's perspective that some things are just beyond explanation or concrete definition, and it's really just up to you to muse on what any of it means.

@dt @ayy

Religion, I think, is mostly a stepping stone for putting human organization into place. Linguistic nuance and the resulting problems and paradoxes are part of the social fabric of its followers.

Catholicism is particularly interesting because of its high level of organization - for most of our calendar, it has been a dominant cultural force.

@ayy @dt

Sort of useful, for some people, for some reasons. Not everyone has to have one, but I think it provides a lot of comfort and some useful philosophical insight for some people. It's vague and both broadly and literally interpreted.

Personally, I'm looking for answers in religion because being agnostic is boring and Unitarianism is an empty approximation of what I'm looking for. Too relativistic.

@dt Conversate with me, DT.

Confession: I imagine the fediverse people who have smug anime avatars are the people they are depicting.

@ayy @seanl Along with a subscription to a project entity that provides ActivityStreams objects representing commits, gists, comments, merges, information on being forked.

@seanl Yeah, this is something I'd love to work on someday.

If I were to name a project, I'd call it Marxsmith, a combination of two philosophies around the means of production and the ability to pay for it.

@seanl Imagine if GNU ran an instance, and could host all of their projects on it. There could be documentation, code playgrounds, issue tracking, discussions, and tool integrations.

Suppose this could also accept tipping, donations, bounties, and fundraisers?

People could even sign up on these instances as a low barrier of entry.

@seanl This is something that I think could actually be a pretty huge deal.

Let's suppose that on the web, an organization could operate like a public library. If your organization doesn't have a document, it can search for related things through a connected network and provide a stream of cross-domain documents and permissions.

What would it mean for FOSS projects to federate their code repositories? Imagine GNU or Mozilla hosting all of their projects in a federation of code.

@seanl I was wrong, saw your description and thought it was your profile link.

Basically all federation software uses different URL schemas to point to user profile pages.

Nevermind, he's on Mastodon.

Woah, another guy named Sean just followed me. And he's using federation software that I don't recognize.

This could be a CIA honeypot. Either way, nice to meet you, @seanl

@mono I don't get it. Ass pics are very popular in the United States???
