• Questions about Bible translations

  The other tool I use a lot is Xiphos, which works natively on Linux and is available from the software repo for my Linux distro (Ubuntu). It isn't as powerful as theWord, but it also has a nice and large module repository and is quite comfortable to use for me. Source: over 1 year ago

• What’s an underrated translation of the Bible?

  Note that there's also the "KJVAE (King James Version, American Edition)", that one's different. And I'm actually having a hard time finding a site I trust that has the original AKJV online, so I don't have a link. However, it is available as a module for theWord Bible Software, as well as for Bible software that uses the SWORD module library (like Xiphos and the Bishop mobile app). Source: almost 2 years ago

• I feel connected to Christianity despite being Muslim my whole life

  If you're in the US or some other equally free nation, then you can go straight for the Bible. I would hop on Blue Letter Bible for starters.

Note that those work on Windows - if you're on a Mac, Eloquent should work - I've never used it, but it looks nice. And if you're a Linux user, Xiphos should have you covered.

• I am looking for a Bible which is a literal translation (preferably NASB1995, but I'm open to suggestions) and has good footnotes regarding textual variation. Any suggestions?

However, there's so many other translations in there for free, so you should be able to find something to fit your needs. If you're looking for a free NASB, you can use Xiphos.

• [Vent] YouTube forcing adblock removal, here's what you can do!

  Adblock plus => I only use this one with Edge because Opera has a default adblocker of its own, but this is also a very welcome extension and something that can (and will) keep you safe! Source: 8 months ago

• Why are there differences between the EasyList filter lists mirrors!?

  Why doesn't easylist.to link to its own version of the Fanboy's Annoyance List? Why are the lists (and especially the "EasyList Germany") on the mirror (?) of adblockplus.org more up-to-date than on easylist.to? Source: about 1 year ago

• Problem with popups

  That can be annoying. Do you see them on Flipboard or when you navigate to the actual website of the article? If that's the case, then it would be up to the website that is hosting the article. I would recommend a good popup/ad blocker like adblock plus. Source: about 1 year ago
