Yeah, we should own those dirty communist propagandists by housing every homeless person.

The commies will be sooo owned if we do that.

I’m been slowly migrating all my computers over to immutable distros, either silverblue or universal blue.

Once you get used to the container paradigm, you can do all your customization and easily copy it over to other machines without fear of breaking anything.

Plus, having automatic updates and knowing that you’ll always boot into a reliable machine, it’s the best.

Once you have distrobox set up with an arch container, you have access to the aur no matter what distro ypu’re running.

Discovery also had hologram communication technology that I guess was also a secret? Starfleet went back to flatscreens for everything and didn’t use holograms again until the 24th century.

If it was just one thing, okay, but there were such numerous inconsistencies, it was like the writers and designers did not care about trek, they were writing a sci-fi show with the trek name slapped on top.

It’s totally possible to respect the heritage of old sci-fi - look at The Mandalorian and Andor - maintaining consistency with the old retro sci-fi aesthetic actually elevates them above what a modern redesign would have done.

This is suuuper cool, but looks like having linux+amdgpu limits me to the cloud option.

I supposed this is bc we don’t have a DirectML equivalent yet.

My mind is open to considering this. Where is the line I’m drawing, which is the in-group and which is the out-group?

For sure I think Nazis and Tankies are both gross, and I have a kind of out-group bias against them, but I never advocate for violence against them.

Except maybe punching Nazis, but nothing serious damaging or life threatening.

This sounds like a great idea!

I’ll clarify, I’m just putting out a reminder that being fascist is not an inherent trait, like green eyes or dark skin. Literally anyone can fall into the trap of fascist thinking. The only way to be truly anti-fascist is to recognize the warning signs in your own thoughts and worldview.

So centrism can sometimes be a trap, but don’t demonize the practice of seeing both sides. Taking a hard line with one sides is a step on the path to becoming a fascist.

Sure, I’m not referring to the Zionist idea that the home needs to be on Palestine land.

I think they deserve a safe home, anywhere that does not infringe on the rights of someone else to have a good.

The person who I am directly replying to.

But make no mistake, Israel is also fascist af.

Friendly reminder that a defining characteristic of a fascist is drawing hard in-group out-group lines.

(And another is the fetishization and glorification of violence against the out-group)

The actions of Israel? Indefensible.

The civilians of Israel? They deserve a home just as much as every other human, as much as every Palestinian, and that shouldn’t be controversial to say.

No journalists on the ground found any indication of a mass casualty event on Tiananmen Square

ON Tiananmen Square. This is fascist-level wordplay. The same journalists found a massacre all around Tiananmen Square in the rest of Beijing.

no evidence that Chinese tanks actually killed anyone on 6/4

This is just a straight up lie. Lots of people were killed in Beijing. Just possibly not any within the tiny physical confines of Tiananmen Square itself.

supporters of Israel and the US are both “tankies.” Glad we agree, good talk!

Based af, the tankies who support Chinese and Russian imperialism are equivalent to the tankies who support US and Israeli imperialism.

If the 3 biggest OS were all FOSS, I would agree.

Right now, Linux is the ONLY major OS that respects user freedom and privacy. Full stop.

The community around Linux isn’t there because user preference; the real reason it exists and so many people are passionate about it is because FOSS software is the difference between a future that looks like Star Trek, and one that looks like Cyberpunk 2077.

They ruled that people acting together have all the same rights that they would have acting individually

Bullshit, corporations are not “people acting together”, they’re autocratic command structures where one or few people hold all the power.

preventing someone from spending money on producing and promoting their speech effectively prevents them from being heard

Also total bullshit, unless you agree that allowing people to be poor is a violation of the first amendment, because being poor effectively prevents them from being heard. Which you won’t.

Which are both perfectly true, common-sense statements

I’m already confident you don’t have a single ounce of common sense in your empty head after reading those two sentences.
