Looking for a way to get automatic calendar event creation from email

    Atheism Pamphlet

    A pamphlet answering questions about how the world view of an atheist works.

    Atheism Pamphlet : Jason Happoja : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive

    Found this pamphlet in my mailbox this morning. I pretty much agree with it and I think I'll keep it for the next time Jehovah's Witnesses decide to show up way too early in the morning.

    Edit: I linked the digital mirror that was printed on the back of the pamphlet. Also, it's CC0 which I think is cool

    Why intense heat waves are more likely because of climate change
  • What's with these headlines? What's next? "How CO₂ may be influencing climate change"?

  • We need a national climate action plan — and an exit strategy from fossil fuels
  • We've known this for more than 50 years. If policy makers won't start making fossil fuels adequately expensive (which they won't), nothing will change.

  • greatest amazon review
  • Mastodon, Kbin, Lemmy and such are "compatible".

    Here's an example of how to do it:

  • Which are your preferred laptops?
  • Definitely. I got a T470s that had barely been used for business purposes on eBay for 100€. It's a great machine. Lots of I/O, great IPS touchscreen, great backlit keyboard, great trackpad, great build quality, awesome form factor, good battery life (about 6-8 hours). If you need a cheap laptop, get a used ThinkPad. They're the best bang for the buck imo

    Bangladesh, Ghana, and Mauritius celebrate their independence from the crown this month
  • I really don't think it matters what she tasted like. She's dead, leave her be

  • Fairphone Fairbuds launch with replaceable batteries, titanium drivers and ANC
  • The bootloader is open so you could throw Fairphone's Android on there no problem. I think they provide the files for that (didn't check so don't know for sure)

  • The man can't help himself
  • They actually sorta kinda have… a LOT. The whole transition to being farmers and stuff? Not only that, though, lots of stuff has been going on in and around our nuclei.

  • To borrow a line from Letterkenny, it's like getting fingered with salad tongs.
  • It's not uncommon for medical procedures to hurt btw. An episiotomy is a surgery, though, and where I'm from it's always done with anesthesia. Could be a US thing to do it without. It's also not a "terrible thing" but a sometimes necessary procedure that can greatly benefit a mother and child when giving birth

    Edit: Just to be clear, though: There is definitely loads of stuff to criticize about gynecological procedures.

    Edit 2: Also, calling out an episiotomy like that is just unreasonable imo

  • (Request) Looking for a CCW backpack without a lot of Velcro
  • True and also just saw the no Velcro request. The inside of the backpack is all Velcro for the divisors

  • Isn't religion really just an opinion?
  • Gotcha, thank you so much for your input! It helped a ton

  • Isn't religion really just an opinion?

    So, recently I was talking to a friend and somehow we got to talking about religion and stuff. When I complained that religion is often put on a huge pedestal and that it's really just a glorified opinion and should be subject to the same criticism as any other opinion, they told me that that was a really hot take.

    According to them, belief and religion is more than just an opinion since it's such a big part of people's lives. I countered that opinions are also big parts of people's lives and personalities. I mean, a huge chunk of your personality is based on your opinions, right?

    We agreed to disagree but I kept thinking about it. I don't get why religion shouldn't just be treated like any other opinion just because people tend to cling to it. I get that it people are emotionally invested but that's not just the case with religion but other opinions too. I would appreciate your thoughts to help me understand better, is it really a hot take?

    Communication between Pis on different networks

    I'm sorry if this isn't the place to ask this, I also asked over at [email protected].

    So what I want to do is this: Two RasPis are at different locations. They're on different networks but have internet access. Pressing a button on one of the Pis turns on an LED over at the other Pi via GPIO. How can I make the communication work? My first thought was Telegram bots as I'm familiar with those for notifications but you can't have Telegram bots communicate with each other, sadly. Is there a good (and secure) solution to this? Preferably using Python code and without continuous costs like server hosting, etc?

    Thanks!
