In Christianity, God is traditionally referred to as "He" or "Father," reflecting both biblical language and theological tradition. For example, in the New Testament, Jesus frequently addresses God as "Father" (e.g., in the Lord’s Prayer, Matthew 6:9). This gendered language is deeply embedded in Christian liturgy, hymns, and doctrine, though theologians often note it’s more symbolic than literal, pointing to God’s relational role rather than a biological gender. Still, the masculine pronouns and titles dominate popular understanding.

In Islam, by contrast, Allah is explicitly understood as transcending human attributes like gender or physical form. The Qur’an emphasizes this in verses like Surah Al-Ikhlas (112:4): "Nor is there to Him any equivalent." Islamic theology holds that Allah is neither male nor female, and the use of "He" (in Arabic, "Huwa") is a linguistic convention, not a statement of gender. Arabic grammar requires pronouns to be either masculine or feminine, and the masculine form is the default for neutral or transcendent entities. Muslim scholars stress that attributing human characteristics to Allah, like a body or sex, is considered a misunderstanding of divine nature.

So, yeah, the difference is stark: Christianity leans into a gendered, paternal imagery for God, while Islam rejects any anthropomorphism, gender included. It’s a fascinating contrast in how these faiths conceptualize the divine.

So much for Elon Musk's "Free Speech Platform": I have 4,205 Followers and my Tweets do not reach even 1% of them. His algorithms have made my account / posts totally invisible. I could as well write my Tweets on a prayer note and shove them into the West Wall. https://x.com/R34lB0rg/status/1896539791904436366/photo/1

If you are a pilot and you feel tired before starting the flight, you are supposed to call in and declare yourself unfit to fly. If fatigue hits you during the flight, you have two options: 1.) get a coffee like everyone else 2.) take some breaths from your oxygen mask

I've said it before and I say it again: #Corona was a experiment about how much #Propaganda you can ram down people's throat before they push back. 99% failed that test. That's why Israel has become so bold. They're controlling the media and they're the masters of propaganda.

Happy Ramadan to all Arabs! https://x.com/ElBaradei/status/1895974668861128847

This morning, Israel closed all crossings with the Gaza Strip and prevented the entry of food, supplies and aid. On the other hand, some merchants raised the prices of food commodities, and some of them hid the goods to monopolize their prices later.

These traitors are no different from Israel, which is killing and starving us.

While CPU frequency scaling and thermal throttling scripts certainly exist, this particular approach is uniquely elegant: - It generalizes across any number of frequencies without hardcoding values - Uses a single temperature target (75°C) to create proportional bands - Relies on the sysfs interface in a minimal, dependency-light way (just File::Slurp and POSIX)

It’s a neat example of "just enough code" to solve the problem effectively. Maybe it’s a hidden gem worth sharing with the @Raspberry_Pi community - I bet others could benefit from its adaptability!

!/usr/bin/perl

use File::Slurp; use POSIX;

use strict; use warnings;

File::Slurp::write_file('/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor', 'schedutil'); my $available_frequencies = File::Slurp::read_file('/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies', { chomp => 1 }); $available_frequencies = [ split(/\s+/, $available_frequencies) ]; while (1) { my $temp = File::Slurp::read_file('/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp', { chomp => 1, err_mode => 'quiet' }); my $freq = $available_frequencies->[0]; for (my $i = 0; $i < scalar(@{$available_frequencies}); $i++) { $freq = $available_frequencies->[$i] if $temp < (75 - $i) * 1000; } print sprintf("%s %s temp=%.1f°C max_freq=%iMHz\n", $0, POSIX::strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S', gmtime), $temp/1000, $freq/1000); File::Slurp::write_file('/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq', $freq); sleep 6; }

A lesson that becomes clearer every day as events develop, and I must repeat it tirelessly:

Our strength, Arabs, lies in our unity and nothing else.

And we must be able to defend ourselves alone.

It’s like systemd’s a cocktail of every spider-drug web rolled into one glorious mess. Picture this: the devs started with a caffeine binge, frantically spinning a chaotic tangle of services. Then they hit the marijuana, half-assing the “parallel boot” promise with a sluggish, sprawling dropout. A dash of LSD kicked in for the “modern” buzzword overload. And maybe some Benzedrine to top it off, pumping out oversized, sloppy features like systemd-networkd that nobody asked for.

It’s the only explanation that tracks - different drugs, different days, all mashed into a single Franken-system.
