Imagine letting yourself get emotional about ghe “asshole community” of a “tiling compositor”.
Anything can get to you if that can.
they invented those too afaik
No, because it’s circular logic.
It is, and that’s inherent in the problem under consideration, the problem of the ‘uncaused caused’ or the ‘first mover’. Logic can either be A) circular or B) not-circular. Any not-circular logic must explain each element by referring to a prior, but then you’ve got an infinite regress. So you’re trapped in a dilemma: do you want the circular logic or the infinite regress? Liebniz’s choice was to say that God was inherently existent, like when Lao Tzu said 道法 自然
There’s no reason for a necessary being to exist before it does
Correct. It is necessary: it is self-causing. It does not stand upon a ‘reason’, unlike everything else in conditioned existence.
to exist before it does
You’re assuming it is subject to the laws of linear time and causation, and point out how that assumption leads to a contradiction. But Liebniz’s God is not subject to the laws of linear time and causation. Which is the whole point of positing it: because if it were subject to those laws: infinite regress.
and no evidence that one does in the real world.
Well the world exists, so all this existence must have some cause. That was the starting point of the conversation: Why is there something instead of nothing?
Well Liebniz said it’s because of a necessary being bearing the reason for its existence within itself, if that helps.

Cool story
But at what cost???
stackexchange will probably give you a better answer than lemmy (that’s me trying to be helpful with good advice)
“Civil without censorship” 🤨
“Decentralized Moderation” 😄
Free as in free beer?
Use a wireless combined keyboard+touchpad as the remote
Aha!
Solution: clear browsing history/cache, then load the page anew, DevTools being open.
I simply don’t see it. When I filter mpd
, I get content.mpd
, which is the video logo I mentioned, plus a lot of mpds that are for Brightcove’s analytics.
Could there be a browser setting that’s causing this?
I’ve tried refreshing the page and hitting play. I’ve tried changing resolution, which causes it to pause for a second where you can feel it load a new video, but I don’t see an mpd in the DevTools ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
