  • no like you can skip the entire grub-install part and just mount your ubuntu /boot partition as your boot partition in arch and go through the normal install process. then at the end, you just update the grub.cfg to include the arch install.

    edit: if you don't have a separate ubuntu /boot partition, you're going to need to reinstall it with a separate boot partition, or configure the bootloader in arch and do grub-install but stick in the ubuntu boot block into grub.cfg. the issue is that you're still going to need to update the configuration on the ubuntu side so it uses the arch /boot partition and installs kernels there.

  • you should be able to reuse the /boot partition from arch, I'm pretty sure. you can just update the grub configuration ubuntu set up to add arch to it that way.

  • ehhh, it was institutionalized for a long time and that creates an unspeakable amount of trauma. I prefer knowing who's a bigot and who isn't straight up.

  • it gets applied broadly to a variety of neurodivergent and developmentally disabled people and its use against those people has left many with trauma

  • no, that dismissing all MLs as tankies has a tendency to erase the real liberatory movements of the global south. criticizing the politics is fine, but applying a hard line against tankies means excluding a vast swath of people who aren't white and don't speak English. he's calling for left unity.

  • *Edit: See the book Merchants of Doubt about how cigarette companies in the 70s misused scientific findings to cast doubt on the link between cigarettes and cancer. Stuff like pointing out how women and men had similar smoking rates, but not cancer rates. They left out the part that women smokers tended to be much younger. Thus, in a couple decades their cancer rates matched men's. Bam - use of verifiable facts to lie and derail

    ok yep, fair. completely see your point. my point was just that the comment was in good faith and from someone who doesn't even have a political allegiance to the projects he's talking about.

    but all of this is secondary to the main issues which are:

    1. a mod using ableism and banning criticism of it
    2. the same mod defending chasers

    on hexbear, we don't tolerate this shit and we don't want to expose the vulnerable members of our community to it.

  • making an argument with verifiable facts isn't an attempt to derail a discussion -- it's an attempt to further the discussion. the OP is an anarchist, not some tankie.

  • my biggest issue with him is that he's willing to drop slurs. he's a bit on the lib side with the electoralism but like that's not a huge deal -- having a streamer explaining Marxism is just plain a good thing. but he needs to do some self-crit on the slurs.

  • the grift never stops. critical support to O'Keefe in his quest to destroy Project Veritas.

  • proper earbuds will block out most everything. get ones that actually fit into your canal and play something you'd rather hear. when I put mine in, I literally can't hear anything but my music.

  • kids are people, but yeah, point stands

  • To those passengers who got mad, you know what I think: Fuck you!

  • while I'd like the trans communities to remain linked, I don't want to do so at the cost of exposing trans and disabled comrades to ableism and chaser shit.

  • basically, the first pill blocks the bodies production of progesterone, which is necessary for pregnancy. the reversal pill is attempting to restore progesterone in the body so pregnancy can continue but in a way that can't possibly work.
