My enemies are many.

My equals are none.
But what if elon musk made an OS? What would it be like? It would suck and be a pos like all the others, yes. But what would set it apart from the rest?

At the very least, there'd be no error messages or support for PC speaker, cuz that would beep.

The literal rattling of the hard drive would be the only warning sign before your data is lost.

Maximum refresh rate would be around 0.1 frames per second - anything more would permit the OS to display flashing things.

I mean, granted it's a been a while since I was Catholic or Christian or whatever but even Protestant laity can gain benefit from their sacraments if they receive them with the proper mindset (that is, the recipient is acting in good faith and a state of ignorance, even though their sacramental ministers be in a sinful state of rebellion against the Church) because the sacraments are Ex opere operato and aren't dependent on the merit of the one who performs the work but rather derive their value through grace.

So I guess the TLDR is the Mormons are Christians if they think they are?

i believe the two main things that christians call out about mormonism is 1) the belief that you can transcend humanity and become a god in the afterlife doesn't worth with the monotheistic bit of christianity 2) the joseph smith being a prophet who helps judge your soul doesnt work well with the really confusing aspects of the trinity

I mean, rank-and-file Mormons probably don't go heavy into the weirdness?

Although they are responsible for stirring up the Bugs by building Fort Jospeh Smith inside the quarantine zone so it's impossible to say?

to me, looking from the outside in, a christian is someone who accepts jesus christ as the messiah, which mormons explicitly do. people i’ve encountered who insist mormons aren’t christians invariably argue that from a very biased, religious place.

the stuff that other christians consider "weird" is pretty drat close to the heart of the matter

  • mormon sacraments are administered in closed sessions, for mormons only

  • they literally have their own holy text unrelated to other christian holy books

  • every mormon, bar none, wears holy underwear every day. that's a normal part of mormon life. (there's nothing wrong with that, but it is quite different from the rest of christendom)

like sure you can make this hairsplitting argument that mormons are, in some sense, christians, but they are still a very distinctive bunch with a very different religious belief and practice from, say, episcopalians

yeah muslims are probably more christian than mormons

i think the major difference here is that mormons self-identify as christians

mormonism is very significantly different from classic christianity, at least as different as islam is, but muslims don't call themselves "christian" and mormons do

you could probably make this drone right now to be honest but there are cheaper and easier ways to kill people, so why bother?

target recognition is ridiculous anyways because if you want to assassinate someone you want plausible deniability. kind hard to do that when murderdrone inc has an exclusive manufacturing contract with the us government
