As established in the other thread here, state-wide communism can only be achieved by the violent means.

What needs to follow is for the people to willingly forget some of what they know, uninvent the market, money, and give up every possesion that’s of any significant value. That is not going to happen without violence either.

And to keep the society in this state, you need an aparatus that will constantly keep them in fear, or ar least apply some kind of double-think. A dictatorship is the only way to do that.

This is how the soviet style communism has been brought to my city:

Communism is inherently authoritarian.

And to that I say: Authoritarians of the world, gurgle my balls!

they absolutely pale in comparison to the atrocities committed for capitalism and colonialism

Colonialism is colonialism. No matter the color.

I won’t weep for landlords, capitalists

Then weep for the workers who were denied education because they refused Leninism. Weep for those who has been sent to work in the uranium mines. Weep for those persecuted for their faith. Weep for those who has been put to a fucking jail for watching a Knight Rider on TV.

working classes after successfully gaining political power

What you call a working class has never achieved political power. Only the chosen faithful families could ever get anywhere near the office desk, not even mentioning a political function. Without pledging you allegiance to a one of the worst dictators who ever lived, you were not even considered.

The sheer effectiveness of socialism in uplifting the people

Yes. The toilet paper outages and bribes for the butcher so you can skip the line were certainly very uplifting.

it’s unfortunate that this can only be successfully established via revolutionary and therefore violent means

And here we are. You’re openly advocating for death and destruction to follow some kind of a fairy-tale. You’re no better than an american soldiers leveling a primary school to the ground, or a russian soldier executing civilians in Butcha.

daily brutalization of the working classes

Open your fucking eyes. You can no longer see the real wold for the veil of victimization you have put upon yourself. There is no class.

And most importantly, stop scheming about some great revolution and CREATE the means of production!

I’m a communist myself

Well fuck you. May all the people who died in the concentration camps, in famines, cultural purges, or just simply shot dead at the border crossings, haunt you tonight.

You say, the guy is fed up by the extremists? What an asshole!

Zimbra was the only software that made me sweat before each upgrade. It was not a good time.

I see a local integration, I upvote!

This is pretty normal in the wonderful world of web apps.

The Foundry TTRPG app consumes a 100% of my laptop GPU while the game is paused, because of the spinning icon. Otherwise it hovers around 70%.

That is, if the details are cranked to minimum, and framerate limited to 30fps.

I don’t think so. The Moore’s law is dead. The priviledge of buying a new machine that’s twice as fast, half as power hungry or half the price as the old one is over.

One of the ways to optimize is to shorten the length of the bus connecting the components, making the machine more compact, less modular and less repairable.

I’ve enjoyed the golden times of technology as much as anyone, but realize it was an anomaly, not the normal.

As for the AI buble, it will pop eventually, to be replaced by some new fad, but it will never be the same.

PS: Just as I’m wring this, I’ve noticed a release fom IBM about a 0.7nm process that’s supposed to be twice as powerful and 70% more energy effective compared to 2nm, so not all is lost (yet). Can’t wait for the yield number.

Someone breakes in, then moves laterally to your home assistant running frigate to watch you sleep at night. Then uses your residential uplink as a proxy to resell on an open market.

After that, the possibilities are practically endless.

What is the point of Sonarr/Radarr in this workflow?

If you get a proper mkv file from this tool, why not just put it in your media library for your media player to discover?

All the announcements about the AI from the linux distribution maintainers should be read as “We’re going to fix some of the things that should’ve worked in the past but didn’t”

A ball? 2 things internet has thought me…

1. Never put a finger on the trigger if you’re not going to kill someone
2. Never put anything without a solid base in your rectum.

Do you actually use the kernel module? Most software dealing with AX.25 just uses some userspace implementation.

And here I am trying to make those same notifications work even when I am at home, and it’s still 50/50. And if they do go through, I always get 2 of them in a row.

I’ve noticed over the years, that the british legislators seem to be overly obsessed about porn.

government funded, yet independent

🤨

Slovakia and hungary. Not sure how poland is doing these days, but there was an infamous news segment a few years ago that got international attention, because it was basically 5 minutes of simping for Andrzej Duda. Right before the elections.

I recognize the quality of work people in these institutions achieve. Not everything they put out is a political order, they still do decent journalism. It’s just that every now and then, you need to be aware of who controlls them. About what they say, or most importantly, what they don’t say when it comes to reporting on certain topics.

It might seem nice to have a funcioning “public” media, but all I see is a ticking time bomb, waiting for one bad election…

There doesn’t seem to be technical vision behind the proposal yet.

Jesus Christ, you’ve just savagely described the europe in a nutshell 😕

Could Europe build a public-service social media model, inspired by public broadcasting

Sure. The government owned broadcasting is working great… not being abused at all. #JustEasternEuropeThings
