Every nation in the world should fund open source technologies with a large chunk of their tax revenue. The fact that this isn’t even close to happening almost everywhere says all we need to know about world governments and their corporatist nature.

You conveniently dodged my question, then asked me stupid questions, thinking I'd have to agree with cherry-picked offenses by China. I am not a fan of China. I just think they are justified in defending themselves. Furthermore, I think it's hilarious that the the US decided to offshore our high tech goods to have them manufactured there as if we weren't ASKING to be hacked. The only solution going forward is CLEARLY domestic RISC-V manufacturing and not allowing our enemies to manufacture our critical technologies.

Do I support China's:

• domestic surveillance: of course not
• transnational repression: of course not
• supression (sp!) of free speech and freedom of the press: of course not
• bullying of its neighbours: of course not
• aggression against Taiwan: of course not

Do I support China engaging in pre-emptive cyber warfare against aggressors: absolutely

Do I support the US engaging in pre-emptive cyber warfare against aggressors: absolutely

Do I support Israel engaging in pre-emptive cyber warfare against aggressors: absolutely

Do I support war crimes being committed by ANY of these countries: NO

Embedding Trojans in your enemy’s infrastructure and leaving them to be switched on in times of war is ABSOLUTELY defense. You may not like it. But that’s called cyber warfare.

Quick question: Do you fundamentally disagree with what China is accused of but fully support Israel and the US’s extrajudicial backdoors, Trojan horses, domestic spying, pager bomb assasinations, AI targeted air strikes, and other clandestine war crimes just because they are perpetrated by “the good guys”?

This story deserves a “no doy!”

All major world powers are bolstering their cybersecurity. If they weren’t, they wouldn’t survive in such an opportunistic world.

Get this fucking Google ad out of here.

Not to be confused with absolute eunuchs:

This is really cool.

It reminds me of the Edinburgh Decentralisation Index: an academically rigorous decentralization index that the university of Glasgow school of informatics devised to quanitfy the decentralization of cryptocurrencies:

The Edinburgh Decentralisation Index (EDI) studies blockchain decentralisation from first principles, archives relevant datasets, develops metrics, and offers a dashboard to track decentralisation trends over time and across systems.

You should give it a serious look. IMO, it would offer some insight into academically peer-reviewed ways of quantifying this kind of thing.

You sound insecure. I wasn’t trying to bring you down. Be confident. Own your opinions.

Have a nice day.

Do you get though that I said “in my humble opinion” and posted a smile? Do you get, though, that other people may like Metallica and have different songs they like and would have the urge to reply to your comment as if it were the Metallica thread? Do you get that, though? Do you?

Yup. Very few bad songs too. They’re consistently great. Zionsville is my current high water mark for them. Just gorgeous. I never saw the appeal of the pedal steel guitar until that song.

Don’t be. I’m just sharing an alternate opinion.

Orion and To Live Is To Die are better, IMHO. :)

To start, I’d download nixpkgs. That would cover pretty much anything I could want.

Do people in China pay rent? I heard that rent is based on income so if you lose your job, you pay no rent.

I’m genuinely curious about exactly how communist China is and what differences there are between US and Chinese society. Seems like a hybrid of capitalist and communist.

For some reason, very few people interested in cryptocurrency practice what they preach. The people (to me hypocrites) prefer instead to use a closed-source centralized platform to talk about an open-source, decentralized currency. Baffling. The only crypto people that seem to practice what they preach are my monero buds.

It’s a ghost town without my posts.

And so many more that I moderate but refuse to close.
