It’s pretty clear he’s had a hand in the Canyonero Cybertruck, and with Xitter’s strategy - they’re going great, right?

…Oh

…ohhhh nonono.

If the July 19th Crowdstrike incident had affected Linux rather than Windows, the impact would have been orders of magnitude worse.

People have so little awareness of how fragile the systems we rely on are - it’s not a matter of “if” - it’s a matter of “when” we’ll see a widespread incident that goes well beyond a mild inconvenience for most.

Or: Klandace Owens learns about using strong borders to keep undesirables out.

Right sentiment, wrong solution.

You don’t fix workers’ problems by being a dick to them and making it hard for them to afford to live - you fix workers’ problems by inflicting the pain on the decision makers - employers and legislators.

Let me introduce you to…

The Metaverse!

I’d encourage any readers of this comment to look at this idiots most recent few posts. They’re a lying, genocide celebrating piece of shit - astroturf or otherwise.

You fought for this result, and now you’re going to try to pretend that you were doing the exact opposite? Fuck all the way off.

I think it’s pretty straightforwardly reasonable to say that we should above all else, remove their ability to continue to do harm. There’s going to be a range of views on exactly what that should look like - mostly based on your view of how punitive we should be. Options would include confinement, exile, medication, lobotomy, and execution.

Personally, I think ending someone through death, lobotomy, and the like is unnecessarily barbaric. Confinement in one form or another seems like the most reasonable option, and I think consentual alternatives are debatable.

Your prescription seems to assume that either:

1. Everyone can be rehabilitated, which no society has ever achieved.

2. That it’s preferable to push a well understood risk to people’s lives back into the community than it is to keep that risk in the care of the state where they can’t kill more people.

…but you strike me as too sensible to prescribe that kind of thing, so what have I missed?

You’re getting downvoted because you’re more disgusted by people talking about the problem than you are by the problem.

Denying eugenics would be disgusting,

Covering for those that support eugenics would be disgusting,

Being disgusted by someone pointing out the disgusting hypocrisy of eugenics and modern conservatism is disgusting.

Pointing out how monstrous and hypocritical modern conservatives and eugenicists are is a moral good.

Modern conservatism is mental illness - it’s not a case of being dense - it’s a case of being genuinely disabled.

Ironic for a political ideology grounded in and returning to eugenics.

They’ve done that too, and have encountered media blackouts.

As nice as it would be if they could simply fix the climate problem with the disruption a handful of protests cause, they can’t, and need to draw public attention to the problem.

These demonstrations open up the conversation in threads like this - you agree there’s a problem, you agree these protests don’t fix the problem, so let’s talk about what will.

I used to work adjacent to this space, and yeah - it’s certainly a thing, but from my understanding, it’s not particularly widely used, and where it is, it’s FAR more commonly used for assessing rep performance and the like rather than call queue triage.

Fascism is, as much as anything, a process of exterminating those you don’t like until things collapse. Nazism will cover the sin of you not being white - but only for a while - you’ll find yourself back at the front of the queue once those more “undesirable” than you are shuffled off to the camps.

Charging wealthier people higher prices and subsiding the less wealthy sounds great! I figure that with the profit motive, it’s all gone to shit though.

Rupert Murdoch.

That monster’s contribution to climate denial borders on apocalyptic - throw in extras like eroding democracy, stoking racial hatred, and contributions to class warfare like fighting off affordable access to to healthcare make him a tough one to beat.

You mean the one that helps you unfuck things… after the OS has started having issues again.

I’ve tried arch (and preferred Endeavour), but found both needed too much attention - If you consider “operating system” a hobby, they’re perfect - the versatility is endless if you invest the time.

Personally, I want my OS to get out of the way and let me do what I want.

Is “it works” the average experience of an Arch user?

Edit: Folks, I know it wasn’t clear, but this was rhetorical. I love the passion that motivates all of you to share your personal experiences - it’s what keeps Linux moving forward… But you beautiful bastards need to chill.

There was also the fact that Hogan ratted out the wrestlers attempts to unionise, leading directly to the terrible working conditions that persist to this day… All because he liked being paid the most.

There’s a lot more to it, but these examples should begin to paint a picture of the kind of guy he is.

Who will pay their bribes to secure a healthy pipeline of human suffering because that’s good for their investors donations to encourage more great policies and responsible governance.
