  • Jesus, lemmings are a hard crowd to please. I've watched it on the peertube, but bought some overpriced t-shirts from her shop. Would that be an acceptable approach? :)

  • It's literally this meme. Support the rich against the poor, poor against the rich, white against the black, black against the white until they fight amongst themselves. Until all that's left are free cookies.

  • But that's because the russian government specializes in supporting or amplifying anything that creates contention and controversy. Even we arguing about it today is an indirect result of russian psyop.

  • No need for doubt. There is no technology in place that would guarantee any kind of privacy.

    For the current version, we are using a Mistral LLM (Mistral 7B) hosted within Mozilla’s GCP instance.

  • The world was never a "happy" place, and it seems to be headed towards unhappier days ever. Every human being around the world can readily look around them, both locally and globally, and conclude the obvious.

    We're certainly not in a local optimum right now, but even despite facing some problems, I'm still better off in multiple ways than my parents or grandparents were at my age.

    So much scary and horrible shit has happened in just a few past generations, that I consider myself to be the lucky one. I often think about that and appreciate several aspects of modern life.

    It's pretty easy to fall in despair due to sheer volume of disturbing news from around the world, but it's important to be able to put them into perspective. Even if the world ends tomorrow, we got to experience it during the good times.

  • Found myself replacing the broken file roller flatpak by the file roller from thr APT repo.

    The desktop linux feels more and more like windows as time goes on. The things that worked fine for years are being broken in new and innovative ways.

  • Using some server hundreds of kilometers away to send something to the person standing in front of me does not make any sense.

    What's even more enraging is that phones used to be able to do that until the manufacturers decided to remove the ability and kept replacing it with ever changing inferior alternatives until people rather used whatsapp or dropbox.

  • High quality positive content

    It took 3 hours and we already got to gatekeeping culture.

  • I use miscale 1 with gadgetbridge. Homeassistant has also autodiscivered it, but I'm hessitant to pair it with 2 different devices so no idea if it actually works.

  • Personally, I'm a big fan of leaving. When shooting, or barbed wires are imminent, just pack your family, some essentials and go have a long boring life somewhere else.

  • As long as you're alive, you have options. And the majority of them are usually better than just giving up and dying, either by a civil war or under the occupation forces.

    The only thing not clear is the timing. How close is the shit from the fan at any particular moment?

  • The goal of the hostile country is to cause chaos and conflict. It does not care if an insider or outsider does it.

    The only way to win is not to play.

  • That's one of the most dangerous myths about marxism and similar ideologies.

    It wouldn't work even if everybody had their best intentions in mind, and did their absolute best to contribute.

  • Everyone living together on a shared plot and exchanging goods & services instead of money.

    Can't imagine looking for an alcoholic shoemaker willing to exchange a pair of shoes for 10 liters of vodka.

  • if you’re using it as a vacation rental and doing all the cleaning and maintenance yourself. If you hire someone else to do the work for you then it becomes private property

    Do you guys even listen to yourself? This makes zero sense.

  • The recent strong example of a communist revolution gave us the anti-communist revolution. It took us 30 fucking years though. And the cost of this little detour can still be felt today. We're at least 2 generations of progress behind, compared to our western peers.

  • Yes, they are. Because by destroying the market, you also destroy the toothbrush making machines, and kill the toothbrush makers. Have fun eating the rich, but don't complain when they end up stuck between your theeth.

  • Are there some openwrt based access points with proper client roaming? I use some random off the shelf tplinks as APs, and the connection always drops for a few seconds as I walk through the house. Turns out, I walk around a lot while talking on the phone.

    I've been playing with the idea of buying ubiquiti, but that's quite overpriced, especially considering that the budget option goes 90% of the way for at least 1/10 of the price.
