I appreciate your honesty.
I appreciate your honesty.
All guests were given the garment for free.
Where does it say that?
Okay, then perhaps the guy in the OPs meme wasn’t chosen either
Okay but it still roughly fits the situation in the OP, doesn’t it? He got thrown out because he wasn’t producing the expected result (i.e. being a proper wedding guest).
It’s a caricature Al Franken (who went on to become a Democrat senator) came up with for his book Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them.
You can see some of the original comics here: https://www.beliefnet.com/news/2003/09/the-gospel-of-supply-side-jesus.aspx
Okay, but that’s exactly what’s happening in the OP’s picture, isn’t it?
I mean, without any context we are left to assume what “lack of results” means but if all he did was eat and made no effort to spread the gospel, then he’s basically the wicked servant in that parable, no?
Godwin’s Law strikes again
Right, which implies that the God of your religion is the state, because that’s who you want to give supreme authority to.
That’s certainly a take.
I mean, I hope I’m not saying anything too controversial here, but I think it’s pretty well understood that one of the major theological differences between Christians and Jews is how they feel about Jesus.
Supply Side Jesus isn’t MY concept, in fact, it was Al Franken (yes, the senator) who came up with it.

Now Franken of course is a Jew, so it’s easy to see why he might have a bone to pick with Christianity.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but your point sounds like “the God of YOUR religion better not be telling the God of MY religion what to do.”
Use your god-given talents to feed yourself you moocher" and then gave all the fish and bread to the rich?
That’s literally what the Parable of the Talents is about. Matthew 25:14-30 if you are having trouble finding it.
I think the moral of that story is that you should at least make a bare minimum effort in order to justify your existence. The Parable of the Wedding feast has a very similar lean: there, a guy gets thrown out of the wedding (after having been invited for free because the original guests wouldn’t come) because he wouldn’t even dress up for it.
The point is, there ARE examples of Jesus cutting people off because they’re not worth his continued investment in them.
Might want to re-read the Parable of the Talents sometime.
This is how wendigos are made, isn’t it.
Sounds like the verdict should at least be “partially true”
We’ve had libraries since long before the Internet. I don’t think lack of access to information is as much to blame as lack of time and/or willingness to make an effort.
Also, we live in a culture that celebrates, glorifies and rewards stupidity to an insane degree. There is simply very little incentive for people to try and improve themselves.
I’m sure there are many ways to improve on this solution, but they would all require significantly more effort (ElasticSearch isn’t exactly trivial to set up).
This is really just a proof of concept, the most minimal viable implementation that gets you something similar in terms of functionality.
For instance, Windows Recall stores OCR content tagged by app, this solution doesn’t. Also, as others have mentioned, a practical implementation should likely check if anything has changed at all and discard any screenshots that don’t have any new data.
It appears to be as simple as tesseract <infile> <outfile>
. Possibly could even pipe (or tee) the screenshot straight into that and save both an image and a text file in a single command line.
So something like this should do the trick:
gnome-screenshot -f - | tee /Microsoft/yourPrivacy/$(date +%s).png | tesseract - /Microsoft/yourPrivacy/$(date +%s).txt
Skip the database, just use grep
to search that directory if you need to find anything. Voilà, homemade Recall.
Thanks for your response, but I don’t think I was promoting prosperity gospel? I understand that this parable is a favorite of theirs, but as you correct pointed out, there’s more to Jesus than that, and the point of the parable is by no means to rag on poor people, but on people who make poor decisions.
My understanding is that if someone has little talent but still makes the most of it, that person is still more welcome in the Kingdom of Heaven than someone who has a lot but makes little use of it. In other words, if it was the servant who received the most money who ended up burying it and making no profit, it would have been him who would be cast out instead. See also the Parable of the Wedding Feast, where everyone receives exactly the same (an invitation to the king’s wedding), but one person shows up without the proper clothes on.
