“Reactionary” has nothing to do with literal reactions, even though the jargon has that in its etymology. It’s about striving towards a former or perceived-former state of being. Their argument is 100% progressive

I have mostly used Fedora derivatives and NixOS over the last few years. I resent corporate involvement in Linux but I accepted it as the cost of top-tier support and maintenance. I’d just avoid the worst offenders, like Ubuntu. However with all of the military industrial ties coming to light, with Red Hat doing this shit alongside its government work, and Nix having ties to Anduril, I’m giving up corporate distros completely. And with systemd capitulating and adding supporting code for the age-verification legislation, I’m looking to get away from that too. I don’t mean to fear monger, systemd and distros including it don’t have age verification or attestation yet, but they’re clearly working towards it.

I would love to use Auxolotl and Lix to keep things declarative and deterministic, but they just aren’t ready yet. Migrating my PCs to Artix this week, and my server to Devuan. Gonna do my configuration with Ansible to retain a sense of declarative config. These projects have their own problems but they’re much more dedicated to resisting surveillance and protecting user sovereignty, which is a must for me.

Ah this was likely my scenario then, it’s been a while so I didn’t recall if it was for admissions or for Pell grant and FAFSA stuff

Gross. I didn’t sign up for the draft until I went to university, it was mandatory for admissions. But no matter what you can always burn your draft card and refuse to fight

Cake and ice cream is on its way :cat-vibing:

Wishing Hezbollah all the best in pushing these settlers back to hell where they belong

Fuck the Olympics and this bigoted shit

I want to visit so bad, I remember it being an option years ago but I couldn’t afford it at that point in life. Hopefully by the time I have the funds to visit China I can just tack DPRK onto the journey

Yo I’m seeing an autistic goth woman rn why’s this so universal

wanna hit this ranch brochacho?

They have some territorial disputes, but certainly my read is also that it’s mostly vassal behavior. Don’t wanna piss of the bosses

Yeah I’m a (neo)vim person so I use all the vim-like binds. I also use alt over the super key as my main modifier. So alt+h/j/k/l move focus, alt+shift+h/j/k/l for swapping windows, and then alt+ctrl+h/l are my “consume/expel window from stack” binds. I’ve touched just about all of them but that’s the core workflow for me haha

I should check it out, but I feel hesitant to engage with anything by the Renegade Kautsky

Nice I’m running the same setup! Niri is so nice, and noctalia being a turnkey shell literally feels like cheating at WM usage lol

I’m a sicko and I love Java, I’ll choose it over python for a quick project most any day. But I’m more of a systems guy so I like C and Rust the best

My AP CS class just taught us Java and basic data structures, what did you find so hazardous in it nowadays?

Just hearing the OoT intro music transports me, what a gem

I knew it didn’t literally follow it but I hadn’t done any research on what the actual calculations looked like, so thank you for bringing hard numbers to the table. I was really using that statement as shorthand for “this weapon would take an incredible amount of energy to be efficacious at practical ranges,” but I appreciate a learning opportunity. Physics isn’t my direct domain haha

Inverse square law? Never heard of it

Please bro just one more wunderwaffe bro I swear it’ll save the colony from the anti imperialists bro
