The Cuuuuube

in 2026 you really have to ask an employer what they mean by object oriented programming in the interview. do they mean a methodology of organizing pure functional code into actors and message busses? do they mean imperitive code that’s interacted with through generic interfaces as with python? or do they mean javascipt style OOP where you define classes to organize your imperitive code within a functional language without any concern for the generic interfaces this could hypothetically enable?

as in all authoritarian regimes it depends on how you look and where you are. keep your eyes up and your head high

A terror state is a state that controls its citizens through the use of terror. A terrorist state is a state that then inflects that terror out into the rest of the world in an act of expansionist imperialism. So… Yeah. It’s internal. Because I was talking about internal use of terror to control a citzenry

the most active developers in both communities are frequently in both communities, and if they’re not, they have a ton of respect for the developers in the other community. The “Neovim split the community” crowd who villifies the Neovim community seems to be a thread unique to people who first got involved in open source through Hackernews and are supremely confident that they know better about what’s going on than people who are directly involved

Their evil is an expression of that they’re all a bunch of losers who find relief from how much like losers they feel through petty displays of power

Posting to wikipedia because it’s the most expedient even though it lacks a lot of the context of how the Indian government has been cracking down on tribal people in Northern India for the past 10 years

Ah! Thank you for the clarification. I’m glad you always know what’s going on in the metafediverse

the lemmy nsfw admin had previously asked if anyone was willing to take ownership of the instance because it was too much mental overhead to moderate a space that could sometimes get dicey and be legally liable for what was hosted on the server. there were no takers. the fact that this admin has been silent leads me to believe that this was not an active choice and instead something away from the keyboard led to this, be that legal, personal, or mental concerns that took priority over something they already felt no one would take on based on previously asking

that’s the great trick of white supremacy! it lets the capital class convice the working class to work against their own interests

western libs are smarter than global consensus, bear in mind. really, what it is, is they’ll say anything so long as the money keeps moving.

the reality is of course that terrorism is any act that is intended to modify public behavior through widespread fear. here’s some examples of terror states:

• America
• Russa
• Israel
• India
• Iran

i’m POSITIVE there’s more, and i’d even be willing to hear arguments that every nation today is either a terror state or subservient to a terror state.

fuck trump, fuck ICE, free Sudan, Ukraine, and Palestine

we’re under quarantine. we are crikket. the rest of the galactic community saw what were up to and is putting us in the isolation void until they observe that we can act right

not to say “i told you so” to everyone who voted for trump because they were struggling under biden, but hopefully this is a wakeup call to listen to the people who were saying they’d struggle more under this president than they had been under the last one

most any that you intsall firefox from the repos. it disables autoupdate which requires you install firefox from a downloaded file like an rpm, a deb, a snap, or a flatpak.

i can sympathize with if you’re new to linux and you install firefox from the repo manager, that message can be scary

“all anarchists are simple minded brutes. you can tell because it’s so easy to colonize them”

have you ever heard of the tragedy of the commons? because it was coined by an ecofascist and has inserted itself deep into economic theory. ecofascists are few, just like all fascists, but their ability to ply power allows them to influence world decisions by seeming reasonable while they murder, kill, and disrupt

anteaters are a step on the path to crab, confirmed
