    Yeah but … that is still kind of weak? I mean we are talking about personification of the creator of the universe. Like you spawn some fish to one-time feed people? Couldn’t you like create a lake for generations to come? Or something?

    Also “wine from water” is like … really? You come to Earth with all your power and you solve petty problems like not enough wine at the wedding?

    And for “raising a man from the dead” - Lazarus was his friend. And from the Bible it really sounds like he came to the Bethany just because he was his friend. And I look at this and wedding in Cana and … you came here to Earth just to help your friends? Really? Like could you maybe do something for humanity as a whole? With all this power … and you’re using it for petty problems and helping your friends.

    Like sure, if they’re real then those trully are mirracles. But if you’re son of creator of the entire universe and life as we know it … boy are those weak, weak mirracles






  • Nothing special or personal, back in early 00’s I was really into Heroes of Might and Magic 4. I liked the appearance of genie and efreet (looked basically the same). So when the time came to choose a nick name, the choice was clear since ‘genie’ is too generic.

    The pic is also efreet from Heroes 4

    Thank you, great question

    This is actually very interresting. I always found it hard to understand how some people can have so many sexual partners, and then there are people with very few of sexual partners. I had this theory that there must be some subculture of people who are really into this, date eachother in this group which causes their number to increase abnormally. It was just a silly theory but this sort of supports it?


  • I mean Notepad++ is like a monument to Microsoft incompetence and them not caring about technically minded people for decades. Where a single guy beats trillion dollar company’s ass, actually not just beats, absolutely destroys big time. And they were either not able or didn’t care with responding and providing some power text editor. The fact that their OS was able to acquire any significant market share in developer’s community is an ultimate triumph of marketing department


  • I’d see 2 reasons:

    1. A lot of people put a lot of money into it and they won’t give them up. They’ll keep buying and selling, keeping it sort of artificially afloat even if it has no real world usage. Well there is actually one which leads me to the next point
    2. The illegal market (and gambling) has a use case for cryptocurrencies so they actually use them

    But to put it simply - they don’t die because they don’t have to. There is no single company that would pull the plug. By it’s design, they can coexist in our world and no one can stop it, doesn’t matter if people use it or not

    It’s like a torrent with millions of seeders. As long as there is at least one seeder, the torrent will exist even if the files it contains aren’t really useful
