Henry Kissinger, War Criminal Beloved by America’s Ruling Class, Finally Dies

Personally, I want to see the removal of capitalism, as it is a terrible system, alongside other oppressive systems like the State. Because that doesn’t happen overnight, and it isn’t something congress would ever vote on, I support strong social systems, high taxes on the wealthy and corporations, strong environmental protections, and especially legislation that strengthens communities. Strong worker protections and benefits wouldn’t be bad to see either.

It can also be used to manually harden fedora 39, which I think is great as well!

The solution is gay tolerance candles

The original says keep nazis out of punk. Skrewdriver is a neonazi band

From any other company who runs a social media company with a spam problem, I’d say this is an interesting solution. You can identify some bots and sock-puppet accounts by PCI. For Musk’s twitter, I’m not exactly trusting it, it feels like enshittification is in full swing.

I wonder how this will affect diversity of opinion on twitter, since I feel those already critical of twitter won’t be as likely to spend a dollar

And I’m a little skeptical that this will dissuade botting, since 1$ is nothing

Yeah, its an undercover cop

A corner store near my college occasionally had 4 cans for $2. I’d stock up for weeks at a time when that happened, and I got a sick finger workout carrying a ton of paper bags full of them home

They don’t taste great, but for less than a dollar a can? 100% worth it

Neovim + LLDB, because I like vim motions and hate electron apps.

At work I used VS Code with vim integration, or an OpenSUSE tumbleweed VM with neovim, which I “integrated” into the windows terminal. Unfortunately, WSL was not allowed due to valid security concerns.

I’m a crpg fan, and a D&D/PF fan. For me, the thing that makes this game so fun is it feels like a streamlined D&D session. Sure, you can’t do as much as you would like in a D&D session, but you can do 99% of what you would typically want to do.

The other thing is the game is extremely polished. So many recent games have been underproduced, unpolished garbage with DLC/MTX shoved in and a $70 price tag. BG3 is a breath of fresh air. It’s not perfect, but the care and dedication that went into it clearly shows.

I feel what makes this game so popular is the fact that the game is just really well made. The story is great, the classes are much better balanced than 5e, and the amount of interesting solutions you can use to solve any problem is just fun. Add co-op, and the game becomes a blast to play with friends.

Considering the recent rise in trrpg popularity and fans of older titles in the franchise, Larian’s existing fans, and an early access that showed off the game as being fun and promising, I’m not surprised it ended up attracting a lot of players. If you have a large enough player base at launch, and an amazing game, I don’t think it is a surprise the game is lighting the world on fire.

That is a good thing and a bad thing. Self diagnosis will inevitably end with misdiagnosis.

I think AI has the potential to increase the amount of patients seen, and maybe even decrease cost, but in the enshittified American system I’m willing to bet it would not be close to the best outcome

I’m not an expert at ML or cardiology, but I was able to create models that could detect heart arrhythmias with upwards of 90% accuracy, higher accuracy than a cardiologist, and do so much faster.

Do I think AI can replace doctors? No. The amount of data needed to train a model is immense (granted I only had access to public sets), and detecting rarer conditions was not feasible. While AI will beat cardiologists in this one aspect, making predictions is not the only thing a cardiologist does.

But I think positioning AI as a tool to assist in triage, and to provide second opinions could be a massive boon for the industry.

Manjaro is a great way for a new linux user to inevitably break their install and have no idea how they did it, then never figure out how to fix it, while breaking it more while trying.

I’ve never installed it, but I know a few people who used it as their first distro, and none of them recommend it, or other arch based distros, and especially not to new users. For the above reason.

Regular arch is better, but I’d only recommend it if you are interested in becoming a power user.

I have been using fedora for a while now, and it has been surprisingly stable and functional out of the box. I’ve only broken my install once in the past two years, and that’s been because I do a lot of power user things. As for new linux users, I’ve recommended it to a few friends who were starting out, and they’ve had great success with it.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is another distro that might be good if you want something that just works while being rolling release. I’ve tried it out alongside OpenSUSE Leap and Fedora, but ended up preferring Fedora.

Debian was my first distro, and I’ve enjoyed using it. I used this extensively before I was much of a power user with great success, and I’ve heard many people say great things about debian 12.

Latex is what made switching to linux possible for me during college. I had multiple lab classes that required their own very specific formatting. One of them required latex, and I was the only person who ended up learning latex in my lab group. Between that semester and the next one, I installed linux and used latex exclusively for all my reports, and I can certainly say that my papers actually looked good. I spent no time on formatting after the first lab report when I made my template.

I called myself libertarian at the beginning of highschool.

My political beliefs went from edgy ultra-communist to what could only be described as (edgy) ancap. In my head, the idea of a light set of laws, in particular the US constitution, with ideals of individual freedoms sounded amazing.

From the perspective of the US education system, the constitution is holy, and the best thing to happen to mankind. I truly believed that strong personal freedoms and the ability to rise from rags to riches was incredible. The ability for an immigrant to move from an oppressive world to a free one was idyllic. And I was told that libertarianism was the way to do that, that a free market is what caused that.

At that time, I made some new friends, and by god am I thankful one of them told me “lmao, the free market is kinda shit, and we really don’t have one” before I became obsessed with right wing pundits.

An idyllic view of libertarianism is not that bad, dare I say nearly a good one. But holy shit does it devolve into one of the worst political systems in practice. Granted, an idyllic view of nearly any political or governmental system is nice, but the ideal view of any system doesn’t really matter in practice.

To answer your question, I genuinely think the only way to consider libertarianism a good thing is to either:

• try and shed your edgy early political views and miss the mark spectacularly
• fall for right wing propaganda like I did
• Have no understanding of politics in practice.
• fail to realize the moment you askew rights for personal freedoms, you effectively give then up and allow someone with more economic power to have the personal freedom to trample yours.

Shooting yourself in the foot is a great way to learn discipline. It is how I learned to be careful of what I am writing. However, I think in most cases a memory safe language could be better.

I have a love hate relationship with C. I love the simplicity of the language. Although it is simpler, it is certainly possible to emulate many features found in other languages like the encapsulation, though rarely perfectly, and not every feature.

I also like C because I am dealing with code at a lower level leads me to having a much better understanding of what is happening under the hood. However, this lower level access allows you to accidentally write bad code that could introduce a vulnerability

Being tolerant to intolerance leads to more intolerance. Being intolerant to intolerance does not lead to more intolerance.

It is not just OK, but necessary to be intolerant towards fascist ideologies.

I fully agree, I used doom emacs for a year before going back to vim. I loved it, but after a lot of thinking I realized that I was getting too distracted by its many shiny features and that I was only using it for the vim bindings, therefore everything else is bloat.

I would never be upset using doom emacs, which is significantly more than I could say about other editors/ides.
