2024-08-13 at 6:01 PM UTC in Assembling the entire Daoist Canon into a single PDFI thought it would be funny to copy paste entire sections of Daoist Canon in Chinese as spam but it turns out those lazy chinks never bothered to put the shit on the REAL internet, only their fake communist internet that sucks. As a result you can only find sparse ENGLISH translations of about 1% of the entire DAOIST canon which is 1440 TEXTS/BOOKS est 50 million characters long
Using the power of AI and technology and amphetamines I will fit all of this onto a single PDF and then finally I can simply highlight 20,000 characters at a time and spam the entire DAOIST canon on the forum. I call this project "THE DAO SPAM CANNON"

第一章
1 道可以说﹐但不是通常所说的道。名可以起﹐但不是通常所
起的名。
2 可以说他是无﹐因为他在天地创始之前。也可以说他是有﹐
因为他是万物的母亲。
3 所以﹐从无的角度﹐可以揣摩他的奥妙。从有的角度﹐可以
看到他的踪迹。
4 有与无只是说法不同﹐两者其实是一回事。既是有又是无﹐
这就叫玄。
5 玄之又玄啊，宇宙间万般奥妙的源头！
原文 1道可道﹐非常道。名可名﹐非常名4 。
4通 常 译 为 ‚ 可 以 说 出 来 的 道 ﹐就 不 是 永 恆 不 变 的 道 ‛ ﹐ 强 调 道 是 不 可 言
说的。但这样的翻译﹐等于一开始就剥夺了老子言说真道的可能性和可靠性。
其实‚常‛字在《老子》中多为‚通常‛之意。另一方面﹐‚道‛字﹐到老子
之 时 ﹐ 已 经 用 得 很 泛 ﹕ 有 ‚ 道 路 ‛ 之 意 ﹐ 如 《 易 经 》 ‚ 履 道 坦 坦 ﹐ 幽 人 贞
吉‛﹔有‚王道‛之意﹐如《尚书》‚无有作好﹐遵王之道‛﹔有‚方法‛之
意﹐如《尚书》‚我道惟宁王德延‛﹔又有‚言说‛之意﹐如《诗经》‚中冓
道德经：老子原文与译文
14
2无﹐名天地之始。有﹐名万物之母。
3故常无﹐欲以观其妙。常有﹐欲以观其徼。
4此两者同出而异名﹐同谓之玄。
5玄之又玄﹐众妙之门。
之言﹐不可道也‛。《尚书序》﹘相传为孔子所作﹙说﹕‚伏牺﹑神农﹑黄帝
之书﹐谓之三坟﹐言大道也。少昊﹑颛乙﹑高辛﹑唐﹑虞之书﹐谓之五典﹐言
常道也‛。这里用了‚常道‛一词﹐指一般的道理。又有冯友兰先生考証说﹐
古时所谓道﹐均为人道﹐到了老子才赋与道形而上学的意义。可见﹐老子要宣
示上天大道﹐必须一开始就澄清概念﹐强调他下面要讲的道﹐绝非人们一般常
指的道﹐不是一般的道理﹐即非‚常道‛﹐而是……是什么呢﹖就要听老子娓
娓道来了。The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Nowadays people die in cities without AC but the natives lived for thousand of years without AC using clay pots filled with water.
Perhaps we shouldn't build homes that REQUIRE large amounts of electrical cooling to prevent death maybe. My AC broke for a month and I got heatstroke twice, like wtf are you supposed to just go outside and find fans when you go home? that's insane
that being said although AC's do use a lot of energy they are pretty effecient these days so I think there is a balance we can strikeThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

House of Leaves served as one of the prime inspirations for MyHouse.wad, a Doom II mod revolving around a house that is constantly shifting and changing in uncomfortable ways, making frequent use of non-Euclidean space. The map was released in March 2023.[17][18][19] Critic Terry Mesnard wrote that the 2020 movie You Should Have Left felt "ripped" from the House of Leaves.[20]

https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2024/05/17/call-of-duty-reportedly-releasing-for-free-on-game-pass-this-year/Call Of Duty’ Reportedly Releasing For Free On Game Pass This Year
According to a new report in The Wall Street Journal, Microsoft will release the next installment of Call Of Duty onto Game Pass later this year. The upcoming Black Ops game will be the first in franchise history to be released for free as part of a subscription service, and will likely be one of the worst-selling games in Call Of Duty history because of it.
This could be a huge mistake on Microsoft’s part. The Xbox manufacturer has shuttered countless studios over the years and cancelled numerous games, laying off thousands of employees in the process. Now, the company is risking the profitability of the best-selling video game franchise in history in order to keep Game Pass project afloat. After spending nearly $70 billion on Activision, this strikes me as quite a gamble, even if the acquisition—like Bethesda’s before it—was largely done just to boost Game Pass numbers.
The official announcement is reportedly set for Microsoft’s June showcase. Call of Duty will remain a multiplatform game, so Microsoft will still reap the benefits of PlayStation sales.
In some ways it makes sense. A major live-service game like Call Of Duty means gamers are less likely to cancel their subscription since they’ll lose access to the game and whatever else they’ve purchased in-game. New seasonal content that includes free maps and modes, new Battle Passes and a steady stream of updates and item shop goodies has a better chance of keeping subscribers, paying $17/month for Game Pass Ultimate which includes both access to the free games and online multiplayer, both of which would be required to play Call Of Duty online.
That’s $204/year plus whatever players spend on COD Points and Battle Passes, which is certainly lots more than the $70 base game. Of course, they’d be spending at least $10/month already for online access so it’s more like $120/year, and if they cancel halfway through they could get the new COD for less than retail price. Also, anyone who just plays for the campaign could simply sign up for the $1 Game Pass trial, beat it in a day and then cancel, saving $69 (and costing Microsoft that much in lost sales) in the process. Then again, Microsoft may cancel the $1 promotion, and will almost certainly raise prices on Game Pass.
Game Pass has been a success according to Microsoft, but I have grown increasingly leary of the subscription model, which takes away even more of our ownership over the games we play—already an issue in the digital age, especially with so many live-service games in the mix—and may not be sustainable in the long-run since fewer “whales” end up spending as much money. It’s difficult to make a real assessment without accurate numbers from Microsoft, and on that front we only have what the company chooses to reveal. But certainly giving away the #1 best-selling game of the year for free is a risky proposition.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2024-08-07 at 6:22 PM UTC in Jesus for President
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_for_President
Jesus for President: Politics for Ordinary Radicals is a 2008 book co-authored by Shane Claiborne and Chris Haw, key figures in the New Monasticism movement. The book critiques how American Christians often ignore the countercultural themes of Jesus' ministry, such as self-denial, due to their comfort with Christian privilege.
The book received positive reviews from both secular and Christian critics. David Swanson, in a three-part review for Christianity Today, commended the authors for highlighting the church's overly close relationship with the state. Conversely, Mark Tooley of the Institute on Religion and Democracy criticized the book for its pacifism, labeling it utopian and anti-American.
**Background**
"Jesus for President" was first published in March 2008 and sold over 300,000 copies by December of the same year. Claiborne and Haw met in the early 2000s while living in different Christian intentional communities. Claiborne's first book, "The Irresistible Revolution: Living as an Ordinary Radical," was published in 2006. At the time of "Jesus for President"'s release, Haw was a theology graduate student at Villanova University. Claiborne clarified that the book’s title should not be taken literally, as Jesus' political manifesto would not suit a superpower.
The book became a bestseller, with all proceeds supporting the Jubilee Fund, a nonprofit organization founded by Claiborne to support international community projects. An audiobook edition was released in 2009.
**Content**
"Jesus for President" presents a series of loosely interrelated narratives combining practical theology, biblical theology, ecclesiastical history, contemporary stories, political manifesto, and Bible stories. It draws on both the Old and New Testaments, frequently quoting Church Fathers like Justin Martyr and Tertullian.
The book aims to present scholarly findings on the New Testament's teachings on empire accessibly. It likens Jesus to an American political candidate, identifying Luke 4:18–19 as his campaign commencement speech, "Jubilee" as his slogan, and ancient Jubilee economics as his platform. The authors argue that the church often prioritizes conforming its members to the state over the Kingdom of God and warn against the allure of political and financial power. Although advocating for countercultural living in accordance with Jesus' teachings, the authors do not prescribe specific actions for Christians or suggest restructuring the U.S. economic or political systems.
Promoting pacifism, the book criticizes the 2003 invasion of Iraq and discusses liberation theology. It is divided into four chapters: the first two provide a New Monastic summary of the Bible, the third discusses the implications for American citizens, likening them to members of the Roman Empire, and the fourth illustrates Christians living counterculturally, modeling divine redemption. This chapter also includes stories on heterodox economics, defending the homeless, Amish forgiveness, dumpster diving, missional robotics, Martin Luther King Jr., anti-war protests, and The Simple Way.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!
