I know, I’m adding to what you said. I’m saying unfairness is not an “issue” of capital punishment, it’s how it is, always has been, and is impossible to do without unfairness.

Heaven is almost certainly not real, and I didn’t mention that. I only mentioned God as as example of something “greater” than man. I did not say God or heaven was real.

I’ll go one further, I wouldn’t trust any human being to make that decision.

And you get to determine who is “steadfastly evil”?

I think it’s wrong to knowingly inflict suffering in others in any capacity.

When you remember that in order to even get the death penalty, you have to be such a horrible person that you’re pretty much no longer human

This is just absolutely not true. Throughout history countless innocent people have been executed not because of the facts, but because they were unable to defend themselves against the accusations. Meanwhile, many wealthy or powerful people have been guilty but never even charged with a crime. In fact, the nature of a crime has almost zero correlation with the sentence.

If you truly believe that all humans are equal then you must also believe that it is impossible for one to stand in judgment of another. I believe that killing is wrong because it is one human standing in judgement of another. Society has a duty to protect its members, but judgement and the concept of “punishment” is something that should be left to God.

You’re not thinking critically when you start from a conclusion.

Agreed

That’s the opposite of critical thinking.

Agreed

That’s literally just continuing to believe and not question something.

Agreed

Did you write this with GPT? Skepticism and critical thinking are not biases.

Thanks for the suggestions!

I do not consider critical thinking skills to be a “viewpoint”. I consider them a requirement for intelligent conversation.

Nice thanks!

I agree with this! Each server can have radically different approaches to moderation depending on their goals and some instances will a much higher tolerance than others. “Community” puts the local first.

idk I find $2/month to be very reasonable. I don’t feel squeezed.

EDIT: Just to be clear there is no amount of condescending replies form trilby wearing neckbeard keyboard warriors that will change my opinion.

I know it’s fashionable to shit on Plex here, but OP either has his server misconfigured or is just trying to stir the pot:

Free to Use: Video (movies & TV) streaming of personal content on the same local network as the Plex Media Server

Hm I like that idea. That’s a bit out of my wheelhouse but worth looking into. Maybe also have two zones? A larger one to trigger the location update?

Hmm my phone always takes a few minutes to update that I’m home.

Ah ok thanks, so just to be clear, when you come home it will still “alert” you to an “intruder” (until your GPS updates presumably).

That’s cool, so with the AI chip it can recognize individuals people and pets? Just wondering how you prevent it from alerting you for well, you.

Last I looked into this Frigate was the most robust path to take, they recommend cameras that are about $50-$100 each but in my playing around I connected a Yi camera ($10) with custom firmware.

That said it was all a bit over my head and I had trouble connecting it to home assistant and gave up

I would love a follow up post with whatever setup you go with!
