Great educational video. Here's my 2 cents:
- Keep dates, years, quantities, on screen for as long as they're relevant for the video; the random sequence of images can distract from the audio. Some people don't catch on, that GNU was around for years prior to Linux existing.
- Back in the day, people would simply install GNU on their UNIX systems. They'd go and start replacing the proprietary components, because the GNU version of them was so much better. Eventually the only original component left would be the kernel; and on top of it, GNU bash, GNU coreutils, GNU libc, GNU compiler, GNU binutils, etc. So the "GNU on top of a 3rd party kernel" was there since the beginning.
- It's fair to keep mentioning Linux in the GNU/Linux name, as we still need Linux-specific software, like drivers.
- Also, a Linux-based OS without GNU could be mentioned: Android.

The reason so many packaging systems get reinvented is because they're all badly documented, badly understood by anyone outside the core developers; and the people that didn't understand a given packaging system try to make their own thinking they can overcome the problems (they think) they found. So the new packaging system is incomplete, limited, badly documented and badly understood by others... a vicious cycle.
It's easy to make one yourself. Choose an archiving format (.tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .7z, etc), put a "metadata" file in there to be read and interpreted by the package manager, with things like architecture, dependencies, version, etc, plus the actual content to be installed; then keep a database of the metadatas of the installed packages. That's it, that's 100% of what a packaging system needs to do. Then add some safety checks when overriding files from other packages, when uninstalling breaks dependencies, etc. Plus some workarounds for problematic upgrades, like upgrading the package manager, or the shell; and some custom post-install and pre-uninstall scripts. Then pair up every package with a .sig file, for public key verification.
You can code something like that in an afternoon with nothing but shell scripting, or virtually every language in existence. And just like most packaging systems, yours will be full of problems because so many packages have special needs and workarounds.

@hafirenggayuda That too. The poor guy was nabbed by the most powerful warlord in the area to be his house servant, only to end up being dragged into a coup, where his master, and is fellow servants, and about 300 soldiers, all commit sudoku right in front of him, and he was expected to also go down. And after all that, the enemy just "sends him away" because he doesn't want to keep a black slave, comparing him to an animal.
Yasuke's story is quite tragic, and Ubislop decided to make him part of the aristocracy that actually disrespected him. Imagine if they had instead put him as a NPC, that helps out the player with info from Nobunaga's forces. Then at some point, after Nobunaga's death, you could help Yasuke escape in secret, aligning with the real history of Yasuke just "disappearing" from all records. And at the end, he could be saying farewell to the player, sailing back to Moçambique as a free man, with incredible stories to tell his people.

As a long time Emacs user, I'd recommend:
- Yes, do use prettier UI elements inside the buffers. Even better, make the text cursor actually appear between characters, because that's what makes sense.
- Let CUA mode enabled by default. Yes, Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V is important.
- Stop telling users to edit their ".emacs" by hand. Use the configuration menus, because they're fairly organized and documented.
- Achievement system for various tasks. Sorted lines in a buffer? Achievement! You did a rectangular selection? Achievement! Saved or created a file without using the toolbar buttons? Achievement! Split the buffer? Achievement! align-regexp? Achivement! M-q to line-wrap a paragraph of text? Achievement! This could be a community-driven list of tasks, of the type "cool, I didn't know you could do that."
- Ask, on the welcome buffer, if the user would prefer the "friendly" or the "hardcore" (i.e. how it is now) defaults.
I disagree a bit about the popularity thing; popular software gets more attention and support from companies. There's an objective pragmatic benefit of a software being popular. For instance, early on, Nvidia said they wouldn't support Wayland, only Xorg; but when so many distros announced they'd be switching to Wayland, they changed their tune.

@Mega_Casual Promising to use all donations towards Marxist divisive programs is a mission statement. What other monetary source do they have that could be used for something else? Diversity Programs is when some useless idiot walks into a room, sees there aren't enough vaginas, or that the skin colors are wrong, and decides the correct genitalia and the correct skin colors need to fill that room. Next time a company or institution, being targeted by a Diversity Program, goes hiring, they'll discriminate on superficial characteristics such as genitalia or skin, to satisfy a quota, instead of merit. That doesn't help Linux, that doesn't help the FLOSS community, that doesn't help users.

Another 2 cents from me: I'm a developer; I use mostly Automake, I make sure the user can always `make install` and `make uninstall`; I follow the GNU standards to make sure things get installed to their proper place, I try to follow FreeDesktop.org specs. And I could never find out how to create packages, or even just the packaging specs, for the major packaging systems (rpm, deb.) Every tutorial on creating .rpm, .deb, or other packages, feels much more like a Rube Goldberg system, that I just give up and use `checkinstall`, and tell my users to do the same.

@milesedgeworth132 Why are you being a hypocrite, enabling one delusion but not another? Let's deal with your hypocrisy first, bigot. Your bogus science can't prove he's a woman. Science (the real kind of science)/can prove he has XY chromosomes, his body grew under large exposure of testosterone produced in his testicles, which produce that face, that hip, those shoulders, those hands, that Adam's apple, those vocal cords. Everyone can see those male characteristics and at a glance recognize he's a male. He can't produce eggs, he doesn't have a uterus, he can't breastfeed. His bones and muscle density ate higher than a woman's, so it would be inappropriate for him to compete in sports against women. All scientific.

@o00nemesis00o His main trick, however, was not the words, but the interleaving of two narratives. A shortsighted literal interpretation of his words leads to a mostly harmless outcome; but if you take him seriously, that he really meant every word, you can see the secondary narrative hiding in plain sight.
Regarding Jews, Marx said the post-revolutionary Socialist regime would have no space for "Judaism," and Jews would have to simply stop being Jews. Marx also said that "money is the true god of the Jews, Judaism is Capitalism." So when he says there will be no room for Judaism, he doesn't mean the synagogues have to close down; he means Jews have to stop existing altogether, because Jews can't just forfeit their Jewish blood. He clearly didn't mean to "just kick all Jews out," since he also predicted the revolution would take over the entire planet; there would be no place to send the Jews, other than shallow graves.

Sadly, a lot of laptops have broken hardware in them, that's only "fixed" by some very specific OEM drivers.
Earlier this year, I bought my mom a VAIO laptop, with Linux pre-installed. It turned out, the touchpad has hardware bug, where it reports itself incorrectly as a clickpad, and freezes periodically. The pre-installed distro has a script that runs multiple times per second, to detect if the touchpad froze, then it forcefully unloads and reloads the kernel drivers to attempt to reset it. Apparently, the Windows drivers do the same thing, but all hidden from the user. (If you ever wonder why you should prefer the OEM drivers over the Windows Update drivers, it's because they do ugly patches like this.)
I returned the VAIO laptop, and bought a Dell laptop instead, that works perfectly.

A little bit of trivia: Deltan Dallagnol was a federal prosecutor in Operation Car Wash (which ended up sending Lula to prison, more than 10 different judges condemned him) along with many of his allies. After Jair Bolsonaro dismantled Operation Car Wash, and let the Supreme Court release Lula, Dallagnol decided to run for Congress, and was elected. The Supreme Court then unelected him, and they're trying to jail him.
Another trivia: Sergio Moro, one of the judges involved with Operation Car Wash, one of the judges that condemned Lula to prison, is also under threat by the Supreme Court of being unelected and sent to prison. Lula himself is on record saying "I'm only going to be fine when I f*ck Moro."
So, if you wonder, why aren't Congressmen and Senators doing anything against the Supreme Court... that's why. They got the message.

I've seen people quit Linux simply because their first experience was some weird distro that does no quality control, like Pop OS. They install it, try to update or install a new package, and things break. Even my distro of choice, Mageia, started lowering their standards with the latest release (the system updater app doesn't authenticate to higher privileges correctly, you gotta manually update from the Mageia Control Center, which has root privileges) and I feel uneasy recommending it to people. Still, I think Mageia is the superior distro; not because it has the latest and hottest package versions, but because 99% of what a new user needs is provided through their config tools. My parents have been using Mageia for more than a decade, and have no idea what a terminal is.

Regarding crafting, it's worth noting that, to craft things in your hands, in a quest, required holding "combination books" to increase your success rate. Some hunting tactics involved crafting extra stuffs like ammo, traps and bombs, but that required sacrificing a few slots in your inventory for the books. So what we usually did, we had one player be in charge of crafting, he would use his slots bringing his combo books, and we would bring materials.
Yes, having access to your full stash during the hunt trivializes the whole preparation phase, even the inventory size limitation. It's literally a mechanic (planning, preparation, tradeoffs) that lost its value. It was fun having to rely on the members of your party to make the hunt more effective, or even successful at all. Did Monster Hunter get better by not requiring you to prepare before a quest?

@3polygons What Louis said, just knowing where the components go, what's connected with what... you can find that out with a multimeter, and a lot of time poking around. That's not exactly a secret, after you buy the product and open it up. The location of a fuse isn't exactly what makes a Macbook unique. One would still need to turn the schematic into an actual circuit board, to manufacture it; the layout, positions of everything. The actual board is way more useful for "stealing" the circuit, to make clones, etc. There's still a lot of secrets hidden inside the "blackbox" chips. Much like Apple wanted legal action against that iPhone case manufacturer, because somebody leaked the dimensions of the phone, and started selling protective cases for the not-yet-released iPhone, at some point the secret just boils down to mundane info. Where is the fuse? What's the value of that resistor? What's the direction of this diode?

Worth mentioning: tty12, if your distro set up journal/syslog redirection. You don't get a login prompt, just the system logs output; useful if the graphical desktop is unresponsive.
Also useful on ttys: the magic SysRq menu. Hold Alt, and keep holding it; press SysRq key. You're now in the Linux kernel's emergency menu, as long as you keep holding Alt. Press H to see the help message, showing what commands are available. Most people just memorize the mnemonic "REISUB", or just "EISUB". The "R" steals the keys processing from Xorg, or any other process that thinks they own the keyboard. "E" and "I" to send a terminate signal to all processes, so they can stop gracefully, followed by a kill signal to end any one that didn't terminate voluntarily. "S" to sync all buffered data to storage devices; "U" to unmount all filesystems and remount them as read-only; and "B" to reboot. This is how you "gracefully" reboot an unresponsive Linux system, minimizing data loss and filesystem corruption.

@Deebus That's not how patents work either.
For starters, there's no such a thing as "IP infringement." The term "IP" is a generic undefined term to cover all types of intellectual property laws, including copyright, patent, trademark, trade secrets, etc. It as no meaning in the legal world, as these laws are all very different.
Second, you cannot selectively enforce patents. A patent is a temporary monopoly granted by the government, in exchange for putting your invention on the public record. As soon as it's shown in court you don't care about the monopoly, and allow the patent to be violated by one party, the patent is not enforceable anymore. This prevents a malicious party from patenting an invention, allowing everyone to make use of the invention thinking it's not patented, then suing all of the richest parties for infringement.

There's a lot of anti-American prejudice in your description of America, no doubt driven by a lot of envy. America was founded on British culture and principles, and it sped ahead of Britain because you were too coward to stand up against your king and your aristocrats.
For starters, the American Dream isn't about "capitalist greed" (frankly, your overuse of the term "capitalism" makes you sound like a commie.) It's about autonomy, being a provider. That's why America has so much social mobility, while Britain has so many people still treating their political class as noble aristocrats, claiming that people with humble origins like Sargon should never try to take the position reserved for the nobles, when running for public office. The American Dream has a deep spiritual nature, in that you can actually realize your unlimited potential, it's not just a feel-good lie like in your country. You only see the monetary aspect of it because of your greed. Being Free, having economic autonomy to provide for your family and to not depend on handouts or mercy of strangers, and having the responsibility to defend life of your own, your family and your property, is something deeply spiritual. It's about not having to kneel down to tyrants just to be allowed to live.
Your description of American towns is so ridiculous, might as well claim America looks like Disney parks, because you only visited America to go to Disney. Yes, large metropolitan areas look similar, just like in Britain. But smaller towns are very different. You would certainly laugh if someone described Britain as being entirely like London. I lived in SLC for over a year, and never felt inclined to go to a fast food chain, because there were plenty of local diners around, always full of customers.
Most of your anti-American rant sounds like the ignorant screed of a commie - which is not too far from a British "Conservative" these days. We get it, you hate America, and it seems to be mostly a problem with you.

Unless the contributors assigned copyright ownership to the Linux Foundation, they still own that code, yes. That's how copyright law works. The GNU project, for instance, being a visionary (Stallman was right, again), demands a copyright ownership transfer with every contribution, precisely so the author of a patch, feature, etc, doesn't pull this stunt, of retracting their contribution later. Linux doesn't have that provision, because Linus didn't have the foresight that people would eventually come in and sabotage it. GPLv3 got updated to include a clause to not allow contributions to be retracted, but Linus done goofed and edited GPLv2 in the kernel to not allow upgrading it to v3.

@theofrost1140 Trying really hard with your taqiya, Abdul? There has been reports from this year, 2024, of slavery still happening in the Islamic world, as well as Asian countries like India and China. Eritrea, Mauritania, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Tajikistan, UAE, are among the worst offenders, on a per-capita metric.

The OceanGate CEO, Stockton Rush, built a death trap out of pure negligence and wokeness. He fired an engineer that raised concerns about the safety of the submersible, and said he didn't want white old people in his engineering team; the front window is only rated for 1/3 of the depth it's supposed to go; no umbilical cable to hoist it back up from the support vessel. And yes, the bolted-from-the-outside hatch means that, even if they managed to float back up to the surface, they will still suffocate if not rescued. No transponder in the submersible either, so we can't even locate it; it could have drifted anywhere, taken by currents. No pumps to remove water, in case it starts leaking.
You can say that it's a tragedy, while also recognizing Rush was a moron, and it's fitting for him to die as a consequence of his own reckless decisions. Anyone with common sense (no need for an engineering degree) will facepalm at least a dozen times after hearing all of the ridiculous details that turned this endeavor into certain death.

On your second point, the problem isn't that the LLM is making mistakes, it's that it can be utterly impossible to make it fix the mistakes it makes. It can rewrite the same garbage code into dozens of variations, until it eventually gives up, telling you "it's a still-in-development product."
Note how, on the very first run, the squirrel didn't wait the 3 seconds to spawn, as it was in the requirement. That's the reality of LLM-generated code, it will just drop a few of your requirements, producing broken code; and after a few tries, you just give up before the AI gives up on the assignment, and write it yourself.

Imagine praising thundercuck after his Brexit meltdown and after he contracted TDS. Of course Elon will try to sell his own products and services. What you and thundercuck are being intentionally obtuse about, is that digging a tunnel for cars is a much cheaper incremental addition to traffic capacity than metro lines. Of course a bigger investment is better on the long run, but no city wants to write that check.
Regarding Twitter, why would even mock him? Are you pretending to not know about the massive layoffs every major tech company had? He fired deadweight. It's only natural to let the remaining engineers call the shots. It wasn't Elon who sat down, looked at the code, and decided to rewrite it. Surely you don't think Elon is the one designing the Space X rocket engines in CAD in his spare time. So far, the rewrite you're mocking actually made the app more responsive, and the server-side faster. Isn't that a good enough reason to call for a rewrite? Why didn't you show the results of that "bad decision"?
The final remark, insinuating credentials make one smarter, is peak Canadian; that would insinuate a diploma can't make one negligent, incompetent or malicious. You're sounding like a bigger scammer than Elon.

Actually, you're the one not giving it serious thought. She gave it plenty of thought, that's what she's learning in college, as she's being groomed into becoming a communist. They don't have moral standards, they even call it "oppressive" to imply such a thing as "morals" exist. Once you understand that she has no motivation to be moral, no intention to have the same rules applied for everyone, then you fully understand how she thinks.
She even said it out loud for the camera (something they rarely do) that she doesn't want the rules to be applied to her. She sees herself as being above the rules, that's how a revolutionary thinks. She wants her faction to have property rights, and her enemies to not have property rights, it's that simple.
Never confront a communist for their lack of standards, they'll just laugh at you. The whole point of the Left is to never have standards.

Norway, Sweden and Denmark had colonized it, but pretty much abandoned it. Norway was the one still keeping a claim on it. Denmark and Norway were in a stable union, the Denmark-Norway union, so it was kinda theirs too. Then Napoleon asked the Danish to backstab Norway, and took the island in the divorce. Then the Danish went around planting flags all around it, claiming it was all theirs, they weren't going to share it with the other Scandinavian nations.
After the Nazis invaded Denmark and Norway, the Americans realized the island had to be protected by them, to not fall into enemy hands. A bit silly to let it still be "owned" by Denmark, if they can't defend it themselves.

You could have better presented this story by looking up a bit more info on Milo, and also on Church Militant. I know you flora consumers have a bias of "yuck, Christianity, eww" and general fedora-tipping, but you could at least try to do a bit better reporting than the leftist outlets you mocked for 20 minutes. Declaring repeatedly that you don't know about the subject at the center of your reporting, isn't something to brag about.
Milo had always defended the Catholic faith, always has been a Catholic; he didn't "convert back."
Michael Voris, who is the "face of Church Militant," is also a former homosexual. A few years back, Michael interviewed Milo, and asked him about his faith, if he would eventually leave the life of sin behind. Milo gave a sort of a non-answer, but later admitted, on a follow-up interview (right when he announced he wasn't gay anymore), that question threw him on the de-conversion path.
Church Militant is mainly a Catholic news organization that reports on scandals (not only sex abuse) within the Catholic Church in the US and in the Vatican. They do not get funding from establishment Catholic organizations, for obvious reasons; they rely solely on donations sent specifically to them, on subscription services, on selling Catholic goods. Milo has been working with them to help them raise money. The CM's audience isn't particularly favorable to Milo, nor is Milo's audience particularly fond of traditional Catholics. It's clearly not a partnership with intentions of material gains.

I don't see how Farage overreacted. He was the victim of assault, and somebody jokes about how the crime should have been done even worse. Did everyone forget the assassination of Jo Cox by the pro-EU lunatic? Because incitement like that is exactly how you push crazy people to do such extreme actions.
Also, there's some conflation here, between jokes and "jokes"; one is done for laughter, the other is done for virtue signaling and claps. No, Jo Brand wasn't making a joke, she was making a political statement. She could just as easily have said, "why bother with a milkshake when you can just stab the evil person on the neck", or "why bother with a milkshake when you can just shoot him in the back of the head", or "why bother with a milkshake when you can just sucker punch him and let his head hit the pavement." It could be dismissed as a joke if it was absurd, out of the realm of possibility, or just silly. But acid attacks, when London is the Acid Attack Capital of the World, is a very real and common threat. Would Farage have to wait until he actually gets doused in battery acid to finally be outraged? I don't care if it's her "personal fantasy", many psychopaths fantasize about the murders before they commit them, or before the order people to commit them. It's disgusting to want to threaten the life of people with different opinions, and the normalization of this should be strongly repudiated by everyone.

You're thinking of your home computer, not a data center. Passive cooling only works when the surrounding air is cooler, and the rate of heat transfer is dependent on the difference in temperature. In a room with 1000 computers, all running at 50C, the entire room will reach 50C also; then at that point, the heatsink can't dissipate any heat, so it will get hotter; then the room gets hotter; and so on. The heat doesn't just disappear into thin air, just because there's no fan. Although you could just spread the machines far apart, with enough natural air circulation, that would be impractical (too much physical space, unreliable in hot or windless days, etc).
A much easier solution would be to run the datacenters at the south pole, and use the heat to warm up permanent research station, possibly even heat up a greenhouse and grow some food locally. The hard part is getting energy there to power them up.

This should have been a concern since Heartbleed. Our software infrastructure is as robust against malicious actors, as is a bridge against an out-of-control cargo ship. How come, a piece of software that can do so much harm, had only one pair of eyes on it?
Imagine designing and building a race car, spending all your money on engines, wheels, tires, etc, and buying all nuts and bolts from the cheapest supplier? That's what we're doing. Everyone cares about the kernel, gcc, apache, the big names. Nobody pays attention to the components from much smaller, less funded projects.

@x3nosthemutant You'd be shocked by the amount of people that try and fail to debunk Flat Earthers. Most people, even though they were told scientific results, have no idea how to defend them, and have no scientific training. And a lot of "science educators" are frauds, and don't know how teach people that are voluntarily coming to them, wanting to be educated.
Here's the shortest way to debunk the Flat Earth: 1) demand a flat map of the world to be presented; 2) find two location on the flat map that are far away together, and close together in the globe; there will be many such pairs, since you can't flatten a sphere without cutting it open; 3) check the flight time between these places, they'll be proportional to the distances in the globe, not the distances in the Flat Earth. Most Flat Earthers will fail to provide the map on step on. Some will provide, and complain that Geometry is part of the whole conspiracy.

You side-stepped a crucial aspect: "Woke Right" is a slur being used to attack Christians. James Lindsay claims that anything based on Christian moral principles is "Woke Right."
For context, James Lindsay is anti-Christian, a Marxist, and a Leftist. Like you said it at the end, he's staring down the precipice, but doesn't want to change directions. He wants to take a few steps back, then go straight ahead instead. Just like Tim Fool, he refuses to acknowledge his Leftist position is what brought him to the cliffs, and poolishly believes they can stand just fine at the edge, without falling. No need to turn around. Just a little bit of Socialism is fine, we can keep it "balanced."
Truth is, Western Conservatism is deeply rooted in Christian morals. Christianity defined the moral framework for European civilization. The fedora-tippers found an opportune moment to direct some anger at Christians, because they are deep into the anti-Christian cult. There are no moral principles without the ones mandated by God. Atheists love abortion, euthanasia, genocide and slavery, because they think they're God.
And I'm not calling James Lindsay a Marxist for nothing; he himself stated that he employs Marxist tactics "against the Marxists." He is an ideologue that's willing to act like an ideologue, to get what he wants. Once you unmask James Lindsay for what he really is, controlled opposition trying to hijack the reaction against the ideology he loves (but pretends to hate), you start to understand more what he's trying to accomplish.

I think there's one mistake in your analysis. It's not white guilt.
Joe Rogan, interviewing Jordan Peterson, asked about how virtue signaling acts like a drug. This was Peterson's response:
>The question is, what is the drug? The drug might be
>"oh I'm a good person." Maybe. But a more psychoanalytically minded
>person might say "no, that's not actually the drug.
>The drug is: the hatred. And the rationalization for the use of power.
>And the wish for totalitarian control, and tyrannical rule. That the mask of virtue covers."
>So the virtue signaling, actually, that's not what's really providing the big kick. "I'm a good person." No, it's even better than this.
>"I've got a place to direct my worst impulses. I don't even have to notice them myself, because I've got this mask of virtue, so I can let the demonic forces that make up part of the human psyche. I can let them have carte blanche, and then also say that I'm virtuous."
I think this is a more precise description of the phenomenon. The people stirring up the controversy aren't feeling guilty. They feel hatred, for white people and western culture. Minorities are just being used as an excuse. They don't care about the two men that got arrested for trespassing, they care about flexing their power in the name of the minority they somehow represent.

@MediaRippers At least be consistent, unlike LTT. He complained about how the description about how "Linux cares about the mime-type of a file, not about the filename extension" was condescending; then wanted the succinct error message about "command not found" to be a sassy response.
The first part put the finger on a serious problem, with regarding new users: most distro reviews, "top 10", etc, are complete hack frauds. Nobody cares about what version of GCC, Xorg, Firefox, GNOME, or whatever, is bundled in. Linus correctly pointed out how utterly useless the "distro comparison" article was. It should be telling him how to find the settings on his newly installed system, how to add more software, how to do basic optimizations (such as installing gnome-shell extensions, if on GNOME.)
He could rip on legitimate problems all day, and would get full support of DT and others in the community. But trying to screw up a download on your browser? Dude, you can go to the Nvidia drivers download page right now, right-click on the green "DOWNLOAD" button and "save link;" and you will get a HTML page downloaded, exactly like github. Linus doesn't have to manufacture problems, there are plenty to go around already; but it's easy to make one up for the kicks and giggles, and clickbait.

Please, Tim, dig deeper.
Call up your hacker friends and have them explain what's going on. It's scary stuff. Linus has been targeted by radical feminists for a few years already, that were trying to bring up false sexual harassment charges, at conventions. He was forced to always have witnesses follow him around, at all times.
The people pushing for this CoC and social justice, are signatories of the "post meritocracy manifesto." Meritocracy is a tool of the patriarchy, etc, etc.
And here's the sad thing: Linus Torvalds', 3rd wave feminist, daughter signed it. And he just messaged the Linux Kernel project a few days ago, saying he's sorry for being "mean" and saying he's "take some time off", to go through some "therapy" to change himself.
Check out KotakuInAction, Slashdot, SoylentNews, etc, the places where you'll find the tech people talking about it. Don't get angry at programmers for standing up and saying "no, you're not taking over this project." Kicking out people in the name of Social Justice, and prioritizing code in name of diversity instead of code quality, is a way to slowly kill Linux off. It happened in the BSD systems already (see FreeBSD and their "virtual hugs are a form of rape" Code of Conduct). This is some serious shit, if people don't stand against this blatant attempt at co-opting one of the core infrastructures of modern technology, it'll get much worse.

Liberals will never admit their guilt, they made their "Liberalism" their identity, just like the rainbow mafia. That's why, when Liberals walk down their path, they find themselves to be in aliance with the woke camp. Notorious examples are Dev/ShortCommieOtaku, Vee, ArmouredSkeptic, ShoeOnFoot, CuckRayGun, etc.
If you cannot oppose evil using a moral principle, you will always embrace evil. Don't embrace evil, don't be a Liberal.

Let me start by first saying that nearly all I learned about KSP was thanks to you, Mr Manley; watching your videos made me buy the game. Here are some thoughts about the video, that I hope have some constructive criticism.
While well intentioned, it doesn't look very focused for the intended audience. The "here's my credentials, here's the game credits, here's a short changelog" slides seem like the kind of filler a student would make to fill up the timeslot on a presentation he's being forced to do.
An educator would be interested in what kind of activities will teach something to kids, that are useful outside the game. Remembering a Minecraft recipe is useless outside the game. What kinds of challenges arrive when building a rocket, flying it to space, then taking it places?
A scientist would be more interested in how realistic the game is; like building rockets under constraints, launch windows for interplanetary transfers, docking maneuvers... and a bunch of other things provided by mods.
Though I don't think how you would present those with mere slides. An actual video of rocket designs failing would probably be far more illustrative than a static slide. Dropping a few gratuitous formulas (or their names) here and there seems pointless, since laypeople won't have a clue of what they are, and they aren't adding any information for people that already know it.
I think the best presentations are the one that are told like a story, where each piece of information fits naturally in the narrative, because it needs to be there. This one feels like a bunch of random facts about the game and space exploration, just pasted together in a single slideshow.

Regrading you talking to Muslims that wish for an Islamic reform, I hope you are the first one I see asking the question "how." It seems they never talk to people that know enough about Islam, to have a concrete follow-up question. How can anyone "undo" any of the explicit and violent "revelations" already in the Quran? Will they simply remove the bad parts? Ignore them? If so, where's the legitimacy?
If you watch some of David Woods' videos, he claims that most Muslims, the ones that are peaceful and want to live and let live, actually are not even aware of the bad parts, because they never read it. So when confronted, they legitimately believe there's no violence on their holy book, nor on the actions of their prophet. Other times they know about it, and use the fact they live in a comfortable western society as an excuse to not do things their religion preaches, that would be reprehensible and illegal.

I take it anti-religion videos isn't your forte. I'm honestly trying to be constructive here.
When you put forth flawed arguments, implying there's logic to them, apologetics will just take your video apart pointing everything you got wrong. The universe being big doesn't mean god didn't show up some other corner of the universe, for instance. And the whole "it's unlikely" argument is usually the first one in just about any Atheism vs Religion debate, and then both parties decide it leads nowhere and move on to other arguments. By the way, since we now have some evidence the human species started in the middle east, might want to add that to your "there's no reason for god to pick the middle east" consideration.
If you're going to use only Skepticism™ to argue, be wary of going down Armoured Skeptic's road. He likes so much his arguments, he ends up saying some really dumb things without even realizing. He doesn't know how gyroscopes work, so he imagined them, with invalid laws of physics, to "prove" that the Earth isn't flat. The final nail in the coffin is probably the "Armoured Skeptic doesn't understand ANYTHING" video.
Ultimately, if the video fails at communicating strong arguments, what does it accomplish? Does it convert anyone to your side? Or just pleases people already on your side?

Wait until the next mission, you'll find something far more deadly than swarms of fighters. After 4 reloads on that mission I'm holding off on playing HW again, no matter how much nostalgia I have, until they at least fix the AI.
By the way, you don't have to stay and slowly mine at the end, jumping to hyperspace automatically mines everything - or should, if it wasn't glitched too. There are discussions going on reddit over all the HW1 mechanics that broke when porting over the HW2 engine, plus bugs.
Oh, and open the game menu with F10, go to Options -> Controls, it lists all the keyboard shortcuts.

This is happening exactly to sabotage C++ (and C will be next) to prop up the competing products, like C#, Go, Carbon, etc. It didn't start with C++17, it started a few years prior to C++11. That's why they introduced an unsafe thread class, and the worst possible hash table implementation in `std::unordered_map`. Coroutines in C++ is a disaster too. `std::async()` is so bad, Microsoft, of all companies, created a better replacement. They deprecated character set conversion routines/classes without adding a replacement. And they still refuse to add named parameters to functions (despite already having named member initialization for structs). Concepts almost didn't make it into the language, Stroustrup and a few others had to pretty much do it all by themselves, because they couldn't get the committee to make any useful decision.
Basically, the standards committee has a bunch of useless clowns that have doing nothing but drag down the work to a screeching halt, for more than 2 decades now. This fake "I'm offended" performance is just yet another tactic to do the same thing.

You could also just use the original lyrics with the right imagery, and it would also work. It's amazing how people don't realize how Communist the original song is.
"No heaven," so no hope.
"No hell below" (because you're already in hell.)
"Above us only sky" (no God.)
"All the people living for today," because there's no future to live for.
"No countries," because international communism destroyed sovereignty and self-governance.
"No religion too", then you can cut to montages of Jews, Christians, Buddhists, etc, all getting massacred by Communist and Socialist regimes (including Hitler's.)
"No need for greed or hunger", then show the Communist leaders getting obese in lavish palaces, while the population starves to death.

@Capiosus The CPU, in userspace, does not access the memory directly. All addresses need to be mapped, from logical to physical addresses. This is done by the Memory Management Unit (MMU), using a table, called Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) which is very small (usually between 8 and 64 entries, depending on CPU architecture and model). Since the TLB is very small, the kernel needs to keep juggling entries in and out of the TLB, because a typical process uses way more memory than what you can map on the TLB.
In this particular use case, applications that use "huge tables" (bigger than 4KB) can take advantage of some kernel optimizations, where the kernel doesn't track each 4KB page individually, but groups them in to larger (huge) tables. When you can handle 4MB as a single huge page instead spreading it over 1024 regular pages of 4KB, you're using only one logical-to-physical entry instead of 1024. That means, when the userspace application is copying memory, it will generate less page fault interrupts, the kernel will do less work juggling entries in and out of the TLB.
So yes, as shown by this kernel regression, the kernel can make the CPU copy memory slower. This particular phenomenon, of the overhead caused by the kernel having to decide what to discard out of the TLB, to make room for a new entry, is called "TLB pressure." An application that accesses memory all over the place (like following pointers in a node-based data structure) will create more TLB pressure than one that accesses memory sequentially.

They accuse everyone of dog whistling because both the Communist Manifesto and all of Frankfurt School writings is full of doublespeak. On the surface, it has a bunch of lies for the uneducated, but if you make an effort to parse the convoluted language, you'll find it's full of horrible messages for the "intellectuals." The Manifesto literally advocates for a dictatorship by the intellectual bourgeoisie over the proletariat, because the proletariat is just too stupid to have freedoms. The Frankfurt School writings are full of degenerate messages of promoting incest, pedophilia, destroying families, science, religion, history, culture, etc. The Leftists know they themselves are guilty of sending double messages out, and think the opposition is guilty of the same.

Counter point: flesh isn't a great heat conductor. Yes, there would be very stinky smoke, even a flame, coming out of the hole as the light saber made its way through. But there's no way her entire blood would turn into steam.
As for her recovery... it's safe to assume the wound would instantly cauterize, so she doesn't have to worry about internal bleeding. But there would be a lot of clotting near the wound too. If the doctors can transplant brand new liver, kidney, lung, stomach, intestines, pancreas, etc, before general organ failure, she might be as good as new.
Note that Qui-Gon Jinn seems to have been struck through the spine. The shock alone might have killed him.
What seems silly to me, is why would you ever stab with a lightsaber. Or worse, why would you ever pull it out straight, if the objective is to kill? Just move it sidways towards vital organs, straight through.

I bet you're getting your history factoids from Neil deGrasse Tyson. Any historian knows NdGT plays fast and loose with historical facts. The most blatant one was about the destruction of the Library of Alexandria, you can easily find articles and videos debunking the lies NdGT spewed about it on his Cosmos. Galileo's affair also received the similar untruthful treatment by NdGT.
The Church sponsored a scientific debate between Galileo and other astronomers at the time, and Galileo lost. Galileo asked the Church to back him up, since he was funded directly by the Pope; he tried to bank on his reputation as "the Pope's astronomer", and the Church rejected it, saying "it's not what we do, we don't pick who's right about sciences, but we are eager to sponsor more debates on this topic."
Galileo did not have a scientific model for the heliocentrism, so he formed a theological one, appealing to the reinterpretation of Biblical verses (right as Protestantism was raging on.) The Church condemned his misuse of scriptures, and told him to just go back to the drawing board and not try to use the Bible for his scientific model. Galileo was not punished until he actually wrote a book (using the Pope's money) to insult the Pope, calling him an idiot. Yes, he was accused of blasphemy (rightfully so), yes the inquisitors were very vindictive and unfair to him, no he was not jailed or tortured, nor excommunicated. Galileo kept having his research funded by the Church, he never stopped being a Catholic, he was not forbidden from talking about his heliocentrism idea. He was only forbidden from claiming his model was scientific; he was on the same ground as Copernicus, just an idea with no scientific justification.
TL;DR: Galileo had no facts on his side, and wanted the Church to enforce a consensus on his favor.

When the Wigs (Lincoln and friends) infiltrated the Democrat party, the Democrat party became a Big Government party. It's all a matter of what identity each party is trying to assume.
The Republicans clearly have a "RINO" faction, that wants Big Government, they want Deep State, Big Spending, Forever Wars; luckily, Republican voters opposed that, and voted in a guy that wants the Republican party to be the Small Government, Drain the Swamp, Reduced Spending and Taxes, No New Wars.
What does the Democrat leadership stand for? What are Democrat voters voting for? Enslaving trafficked illegal immigrants to help support the economy. Starting more wars to feed the Military Industrial Complex. Increase taxes while mocking you for caring about having no money. Killing babies. Legalizing drugs and prostitution. Dissolving the Constitution. Endangering women and children.
Let's stop focusing on achievements and crimes of parties of generations past. Democrats are objectively evil, and any dissent is silenced or kicked out. Republicans still have a fight going on, and the evil guys within it are losing.

ESR came up with his own trojan horse, called Open Source, designed specifically to undermine the Free Software movement.
ESR used many lies to promote OS over FS: "Open Source is cheaper, it's more optimized, has less bugs, has more features, than proprietary software." It completely discarded the principle of "Freedom." The lies convinced many companies to adopt the term, knowing full well the public didn't know the difference. It's no wonder, the "Open Source" brand means nothing these days; people talk about "open source military intelligence", "open source encyclopedias", "open source social networks", etc.

Oh boy, you must feel silly now.
Back when you were saying you're apolitical, that you were just valuing facts over "truth", I was posting in the comments "that statement alone is a political position, because one political faction is vehemently anti-facts." Reality is the first thing to be politicized when Marxism is present.
I'm not saying you have to march on the streets under a party banner, I'm just saying you should be smart enough to realize you're stepping into a political battlefield. You can't just claim to have no political alignment when you're (incidentally) standing opposite to a major political ideology. It's not like you're gonna lost viewership from the cultists, they've considered you a blasphemer a long time ago anyway.
That said, I probably owe my life, and the life of my parents, to you. Thanks to the studies you presented us, I made sure we took our due precautions early on. My government still didn't say a word about obesity or vitamin/nutrients deficiency; they just want goosestepping thugs marching on the streets.

The only missing remark is, a second genesis has never been discovered, here on Earth. So the whole premise that life is a common thing, goes against the evidence, that life happened only once, during the roughly 4 billion years the Earth has been hospitable to life. The whole optimism that life is common, even inevitable, seems to completely go against every evidence we have.
Also, tidal forces caused by orbiting moons, provide so little energy differential, it's unlikely it could perform any work, like power up life. We already have to resort to extreme environmental conditions (lightning, high pressure, etc) to "spontaneously" synthesize the building blocks of life, in a lab. And it's unlikely that the precursors to life were any more energy-efficient than the evolved life we have now. So the whole idea of an ocean being warmed uniformly through tidal forces, being able to kickstart life, is a big leap, from a lot of baseless assumptions.

NdGT is an anti-religion atheist, and a rabbid anti-Christian. Every single Christmas and Easter seasons, he goes to social media to mock Christianity. Not even once he will say anything mocking Judaism or Islam. Yet, he loves to promote the "Theory of Multiverse" which is no more scientific than the Horoscope.
Even if he renounces his claim of being a scientist, he still describes himself as a "science educator." Yet, he adamantly refuses to argue with Flat Earthers or Moonies.
I remember seeing him being corrected, by an actual scientist, about how we source hydrogen (for things like fueling rockets); Neil thought we do this through electrolysis, when in fact most of our hydrogen source is natural gas/oil wells. The reason for that is that electrolysis of water (applying an electric current to break it down into hydrogen and oxygen gas) is not used is because the electrode that generates oxygen corrodes incredibly fast. Labs that perform electrolysis on the regular need to use platinum or gold electrodes, that need replacing on the regular, because even such oxidation-resistant metals get corroded. Neil doesn't know that, like most "science school teachers" because he never tested this experiment. He never bothered to ask how that huge orange fuel tank of the Space Shuttle got filled. His belief in the might of his own arrogant intellect is all he ever needed, to start saying wrong things in public, under the "credentials" of being a "science educator."
NdGT is not humble enough to be wise. Definitely not qualified to teach anything, much less to pose as an expert in anything, even in "his field" of astrophysics. He will only ever be remembered as the idiot that demoted Pluto, because he wants to pretend culture must be defined through mathematical equations; yet, I don't see him wanting to wipe out constellations because "the stars aren't even close together physically, nor they resemble the shape claimed by the constellation." If astrophysicists can tolerate using constellation names to label stars and galaxies, they can also tolerate keeping Pluto a planet. It's our culture, part of our history.

Wrong. Once side prides themselves of destroying lives by sheer accusations. The average person, like you, has no understanding that the two sides are 1) the side with morals and principles and 2) the side with ideologies, that has no concept of right and wrong, only of what's ideologically expedient.
Of course the Left knows it could be used against them, and they will always cry that it's unfair to use their weapons against them, they will appeal to the Right's moral standards. The side with no morals always demands their enemies to have morals.
So no, you're wrong. The Left isn't scared, they know they have the power to promote asymmetric warfare, they have the power to enforce double standards, they're confident it will not be used against them. That is, until somebody further Left comes along.

C++ is an ISO standard, it's bigger than IEEE.
Programming languages evolve to match the changing technology, the changing demands, and even to correct mistakes and incorporate new ideas.
C++ in particular, was created precisely to incorporate the best ideas of other languages. It was meant to be an every-evolving language from the very start. Initial Bjarne Stroustrup had the final word, but as more and more work was needed to deal with all the contributions and language extensions, he formed a committee, to submit a formal standard to the ANSI in 1990, and a year later to the ISO.
There's a lot of work to create a proper ISO standard, people need to get paid to make time to write technical texts, to go to meetings and discuss complex problems within the language. In order to have a voice in the Standards Committee, you have to pay to be a member; that's how they pay the people to work on the standard. Usually individuals don't pay by themselves, they're part of organizations (like corporations, research institutions, governments) that "sponsor" them. Corporations want their own engineers being part of the standards committee, to ensure the committee is focusing on problems they want solved. Compiler vendors (like Microsoft and Google) want their own engineers in the committee so their own proprietary extensions are incorporated in the standard (so they have the feature implemented in their own compiler first, and don't have to change to something different.)
Without updates to the language, C++ would not have hash tables, would not have multi-threaded support, would not have atomic operations, no lambdas, no regular expressions, etc.

The French people have no principled opposition to Macron and globalist/leftist/Marxist ideologies. No conservative, or even liberal, political force to formulate a solution. The most notable name, Marine Le Pen, is being persecuted and threatened with jail, for having the wrong politics.
The Yellow Vests are just angry people, angry that the government is taking all their money, that crime is rising, that the country is crumbling. They'd vote a Macron 2.0 in a heartbeat, because they can't figure out what went wrong. Macron promised during his campaign, that he would let France sink so the EU could shine. And that's exactly what he's doing; taxing his own people into poverty, in the name of "saving the environment", while hosting and fellating the dictator of the country that dumps the most pollution into the air and oceans, and negotiating how to siphon French money to that hellhole.
No, Yellow Vests aren't going to get uglier, they even started demanding the money being donated for the reconstruction, to be distributed to the "poor", and let Notre Dame in ruins instead. And Macron might do just that, after lining his own pockets.

MS makes a lot of money from support contracts with government agencies, universities, banks, large corporations, etc. Often, these systems have a mixture of components, including Linux, PostgreSQL, etc. This guy is a PostgreSQL developer that was probably hired by MS to work on support contracts, not for internal MS infrastructure. As much as MS would like to push all their clients to to switch to a MS-exclusive solution, the clients prefer to "keep things running the same way." So MS just takes the L and hires from the rival camp, so they don't lose the rich contracts.

@copperlemon1 Counter point: the general public can smell something is off, but most people aren't trained in Marxist rhetoric, or even in philosophy, to be able to navigate through this modern instance of Marxism. When Jordan Peterson says "Neo Marxists", people just think he's trying to show off his vocabulary without saying much. Everyone now knows what "Woke" means, even if they can't piece a precise description with words. It's an ideology that encompasses anti-White rhetoric, Communism, Globalism, Feminism, degeneracy, abuse of children, idolizes criminals, sells itself off to multi-billion dollars corporations, throws paint at historical pieces of art and defaces prehistoric monuments, etc. "Woke" is just Leftism as it is today. James Lindsay was trying pull the "I'm not like the other Leftists" trick for a few years, now he's showing his true allegiance (with the Woke Cult).

I'm Brazilian; here's a few points:
- The Molotov cocktail was thrown at an area that has stone floor and glass door and windows. Nothing there, other than the potted plants, could catch fire. There were security personnel present that put the fire out quickly. This is the first hint of incompetence in the attack, as if the attackers wanted to make sure it didn't cause much damage. Simply throwing a few bricks to break the glass, prior to throwing the Molotov cocktails, would have caused far more severe damage, inside the building.
- Second hint of incompetence was: the common, almost daily, kind of terrorist attack (by criminals, drug cartels, etc) is to spray bullets at the building of the target. Usually police stations, courts, municipal buildings, sometimes even military headquarters, etc. The terrorists in this incident apparently didn't have access to guns.
- The comedians, target of the attack, are proudly saying on social media they have no fears. As if they're confident there's nothing else to come out of it. Which is really strange, in Brazil, of all places. Did you check the homicide rate in Brazil? It's a craphole.
- The video of the people claiming authorship for the attack has a few indications of false flag. They claim to belong to a group that came out and say they condemn the attack, and have no involvement with it. They're holding an imperial flag with the wrong hand. That doesn't mean the comedians aren't in danger, but the group being fingered as the perpetrators are probably being used as scapegoats.

Back when the original Cosmos aired, Carl Sagan was called out by historians for misrepresenting, and even outright lying about historical events. The most egregious example was his false narration of the destruction of the Library of Alexandria, to make it sound like it was destroyed by religious fanatics.
Carl also lied about Galileo, claiming "Geocentrism" was the heresy he was prosecuted for. Galileo lost the scientific debate against his peers; demanded to be crowned the winner of the debate he clearly lost because he was the Pope's official astronomer, and got denied; fooled the Pope to finance him writing a book where he would elaborate his "scientific theory", only for him to call the Pope an idiot in the book; and finally, as a last act of desperation to salvage his non-scientific idea, he proposed that the Bible should be reinterpreted to create new meaning in certain passages, to suggest it actually teaches Geocentrism (while protestant heresies were spreading like wildfire in Europe.) Galileo was justifiably accused of heresy and apostasy, he was not tortured, nor jailed. He recanted his insults and the suggestion to start reinterpreting the Bible to fit his desires. He was allowed to keep living at the home, still being paid by the Pope, and got a servant for the rest of his life, as long as he agreed to remain in house arrest, and never again teach that Geocentrism was a scientific theory, only an idea with no scientific evidence yet.
Carl Sagan, just like Neil deGrasse Tyson, was a lying anti-Christian fraud. Posing as an educator to promote or defend a malicious agenda.

Greece is a failed state, what did you expect? They're cooking the GDP numbers (increasing imports, decreasing exports, all on borrowed money), again, and the bubble will burst, again. If I was a Greek citizen, I'd opt to even vote a tree for office. Given, this is EU Parliament, not a real government body, so nothing will change back at home.

Christianity, which is the basis for Western Conservatism, is what created the notion that "everyone is under the same moral code" and "all humans are deserving of the same dignity." Jesus condemned all ideologies. Slavery also ended thanks to Christianity. Christianity teaches that you are responsible for your individual actions, no more collective guilt (or collective salvation.)
Yes, the family and the community have to be conserved, otherwise there isn't much of a place left to live in, unless you're a king that can live in privilege above everyone else's misery. Property rights are intrinsic to Christianity, as you have to, first and foremost, be the owner of your own labor. So you are smearing Christianity with lies. It's probably because you're a Libertarian, and Christianity opposes Libertarianism the same way it opposes Collectivism and Anarchy. Or you're a globalist, who also opposes Christianity, because you're against the notion that local communities and nations could oppose the power of the billionaires.

The global standard for election fraud has always been: "Were the rules broken? Then the election is not legitimate."
Then in 2020, the standard changed. Breaking the rules is normal. Trump had to prove mathematically, each individual vote that was not legitimate; when in reality, the whole election was ran like in a Venezuelan election.
BlueAnons will always reject all evidence of violations of electoral law, claiming it's not proof. Yes, you broke electoral laws, that's the proof. Here's a concrete example: in Georgia, Biden won over Trump by 14k votes. Then they did a recount, and Biden's lead lowered by 2k votes. Then 5 months after the elections, Georgia officials admitted, they could NOT show transfer of custody documents for over 355k absentee ballots. That's nearly 60% of all absentee ballots. So those ballots arrived at the counting center, were all processed by the counting machines, and nobody knows where they came from, who brought them to the center, and when they arrived. Yes, Trump can't prove that every single one of these 355k ballots are fake, and no, he doesn't have to. The fact that they were counted, in violation of Georgia election laws (which demand transfer of custody records for every ballot that arrives at the counting center), is proof of fraud.
Similar events happened in Wisconsin (140k ballots "found" after 3:30 AM, after election workers were sent home for the night), Michigan (200k ballots "found" after 3:30 AM, after election workers were dismissed for the night), and Pennsylvania (1 million ballots found after 2AM, after workers clocked out), where all the ballots "found" were nearly 100% votes for Biden.

Emacs is the kind of software designed for people that will need a text editor for a long time. Most people don't need a text editor for long; just open a file, edit some setting, search something, replace something, and they're done. I wouldn't recommend Emacs to such users in good conscience; I wouldn't recommend vim either, mind you. The Org Mode thing is neat and all, but it's not really what will draw people to Emacs. I'd say, if you're not coding, Emacs is probably not worth spending the time to learn and customize. But if you do, oh boy... it feels like you just found a soul mate that is thinking in tune with you. My Emacs knows how to add and remove line breaks, how to align, how to colorize the syntax exactly the way I want it. It has so many small things to it, that might not sound significant by themselves, but when added all together... you just can't feel comfortable with other editors after that.

@hexa3389 TexMacs is less code oriented and more visual. It's more practical for things like tables, where the code is just messy and easy to screw up. If you're not writing LaTeX docs all the time, it's a hassle having to web search on how to create a table, or how to finely control an image, etc. In fact, I'd rather use Org Mode to build tables.
AucTex is nice that it has menus for when you forget about a command, but it's a complete mess in that it sorts the commands alphabetically, and not by function. Even gnome-latex does a much better job at that. TeXstudio is a bit better still, with a preview pane and wizards to get a quick skeleton for tables, images, or even blank documents.

It feels like, when Elon took over Twitter, suddenly a lot of bubbles started to burst. I bet many SV investors started asking, "How come Twitter has to try to turn a profit, and our company has been bleeding money this whole time? When do we turn a profit?" Companies started firing diversity hires, started charging money for their services, rate limiting, now even desperately trying to enforce ads. It's like we're having a sudden reset to the internet of the late 90s, as the largest tech companies have to face the reality, all that storage, cpu cycles, bandwidth, costs too much money. Goodbye free email, goodbye free video sharing, goodbye free microblogging.
I bet there was some shady money financing all these losses in exchange for control, that is suddenly stopping.

@akam9919 Marx definitely wanted this to the result of his works. He outright stated, his goal was to dismantle all of society, to remove the pillars of civilization, so "they" (the intellectual bourgeoisie like himself) could mold a new type of human being that is fully obedient to the State, and never dare to revert back to the Free Market (aka "Capitalism") or God. Karl Marx never worked a day in his life, he squandered his family's money, only writing to his parents to demand more money. You can read the letters his father wrote to him, it's quite revealing how ungrateful and entitled he was. When he stopped receiving money from his family, he latched on to Engels, still acting just as demanding (you can find a letter from Marx insisting Engels to not be late with paying his rent.)
And yes, Karl Marx outright wrote, on his "On The Jewish Question" book, that Jews would not be allowed to continue existing after the global Communist revolution takes place. He also claimed that the real god of the Jews is "Capital", and therefore their religion is really "Capitalism", not "Judaism." The term "Capitalism" is an antisemitic epithet.

I don't doubt Tulsi Gabbard's strength. I doubt her loyalty. I doubt her interests align with Trump, with Conservatives, with the American people. Remember, Nimarata Nikki Randhawa Haley pretended to work for Trump during his first term, only to backstab him, and turn into a never-Trumper warhawk. That's what Trump's first term was, filled to the brim with the swamp he was supposed to drain. In that sense, what views does Tulsi Gabbard hold, that align at all with Trump's? I got the impression she will say anything her boss tells her to say, even when it contradicts her beliefs. For instance, she is an anti-life Satanist. RFK Jr is the same, also an anti-life Satanist. Will these two former Democrats support cutting funds for Planned Parenthood? Or will they backstab Trump in secret?

Under Trump, while not participating in the Paris Accord, and increasing production of domestic oil, the US was one of the few nations in the world that actually REDUCED CO2 emissions, while the economy grew. Germany, France, Australia, Canada, all these other pretentious grifters, increased their pollution while claiming to be saving the climate. Germany should be kicked out of all climate events until they shut down every last one of their coal power plants, and restore their clean nuclear plants. But that's not gonna happen, they don't have any intention of solving any crisis - be it "climate change," "nuclear war," "mass illegal immigration" or anything else.

Sadly, most instability in home routers come from their firewalls. They don't have the necessary hardware to run firewalls, so if you do enable firewall, and use something that's too demanding of the firewall (like hundreds of connections per minute from downloading a torrent) the router starts running out of memory and different internal modules start to malfunction. Even after you stop pushing the router beyond its limits (that is, you closed down the torrent), it stays in an unstable state, that will continue randomly dropping packets and losing connections forever (until you reboot it.)
The best recommendation, that I've been giving out since Splatoon 1, is to always reboot all your network equipment before a gaming session; and disable any "advanced firewall" feature in your router. On my home router, I only use NAT that blocks all ports by default, firewall disabled, and UPnP enabled.
It's worth noting, there are websites that you can use to scan your home network, to test how much your network is being exposed. If you do lower your router security, I strongly suggest you to use this service to confirm you're not making your home network more vulnerable. Not all routers are created the same.

You left out a very important part of the whole ordeal; Perelman wasn't just pissed off at the field, he was pissed off at the elitist frauds sitting atop of the institutions all trying to use his reputation. Things like demanding to be co-author in his papers, put his name as co-author in their papers, etc. And above all, the jealousy and backstabbing. In that year while his Poincaré-Perelman theorem was being checked by the mathematical community (it was a global effort if I remember correctly) a famous Chinese mathematician rushed to plagiarize his proof and claim he solved it with the help of his students. And the academia was so corrupt, some even went along with the bullshit claim by the CCP that "Perelman's proof had some mistakes, but our genius Mathematician fixed it, he's the one that solved Poincaré's conjecture."
Perelman was right, the field of Mathematics is full of corrupt, disgusting people, they don't deserve Perelman. He probably thought that accepting the awards, even the Fields Medal (I'd compare it to the Nobel Prize, not the Oscars), would just legitimize a corrupt system. The world "lost" a genius on the same level as Albert Einstein; for those that don't remember, Einstein published 4 papers within a single year (1905), all Nobel-worthy (but the rules only allow for giving one Nobel prize per person, so Einstein only got one), meanwhile no university wanted to hire him. Only 3 years later (1908), he finally got a lecturing (instead of research) position at a university.
Srinivasa Ramanujan is another example of a snob, arrogant Mathematician class not respecting a genius, that pretty much invented an entire new field (Number Theory.) The prejudice was that Ramanujan had no formal training, and didn't even know how to write the proofs of his theorems down "properly." At some point, he too just wanted to quit Mathematics and take care of his mother back in India.

Every single Marxists is like that, it wouldn't be different for sex-based Marxism (aka Feminism.) Remember, they believe the "Ends justify the Means" and that there's no truth or morality, only struggle for power. When she lies about what she did, about what Asmongold (or anyone else) said, she's merely engaging in a battle to maximize her own power, and destroy other people's power. She's a poor fragile woman, Asmon is a Nazi, everyone's a mysogynist, "here's my Patreon and CashApp to support me", etc.

Let me guess, you don't know even the first thing about the Catholic Inquisition, and are smearing the faults of the protestants and local governments onto the Church.
The Inquisition was established precisely to allow for people a fair trial, instead of just being arrested and executed by the State powers, who pretended to act on behalf of the Church. Many of the persecuted would actually admit to heresies precisely to enter Church's jurisdiction, and be spared execution. In other words, the Catholic Inquisition saved lives.
When word came to the pope that some of the bishops were disobeying procedures, denying people their fair trials, the pope immediately put a stop to the whole thing, to not allow further abuses. Protestants and local governments just kept going with their own inquisitions, the Church had not power over them.
Then later the protestants and the atheists started defaming the Church, spreading false stories about tends of thousands of people murdered by the Church's Inquisition. Don't fall for that, go and actually look up what's actually historical and what's false.

Star Trek was always Communist. Roddenberry got away with it because his Communist utopia had infinite energy, infinite territory, infinite resources, infinite labor.
The Enterprise never had to ration fuel, nobody paid energy bills for overusing replicators or holodeck, because it had an unlimited supply. Nobody had to labor to procure food, clothes, or any goods, the replicators provided everything; so labor had literally no value. Even services were provided by robots, or handwaved away. Need to move people or goods around? Either teleport it, or use tiny shuttles apparently have autonomy for interstellar travel.
Of course Communism works when you break all the laws of physics.

AI is being used both as a scapegoat, to skirt all responsibility, and as an oppression tool. You do not need "super intelligence" or anything like that. AI can already spy on you, AI can already process massive amounts of data looking for certain patterns. AI can already correlate anonymized data, and trace that data back to individuals. Now put this terrifying tool on the hands of corporations that have all sorts of private information about you, like Google, Facebook, Microsoft, AND the government.
If you're only afraid of drones bombing you in your sleep, or of being dragged down to a concentration camp in the middle of the night, you don't have much imagination. The possibilities to ruin your personal life are endless for large corporations AND the government. Good luck, next time you try to sue a large tech company or the government, they have the tool AND the plausible deniability ("we didn't destroy your life with false accusations and biased application of laws, the AI made us do it!") in place. Remember last year, when the CEO of Pfizer wanted people to be arrested for the crime of refusing to take his profitable experimental treatment? It was ridiculous, he didn't have the power to just order the police to arrest people. Now they don't have to, anymore, they can punish you even more.

They're right though, you don't deal with this through Discord or social media DMs, nor at an elevator or water cooler talk; you do it through properly documented means, that you later might need to present in court, in case things go sour. It'll likely be a decision that needs to be made collectively inside both parties, some meetings, etc.
Edit
The "I had to dox myself" bit, oh Tim please. You can't live off the grid and demand services from within the grid. Brand protection is not a right, it's a privilege. Yes, if you are going to run a business, you need to hire a lawyer, or somebody that knows how to run a business.
To be clear, I'm a fan of yours, but you neglected your brand. It's a bad situation for both parties. The "Tim Pool" brand is bigger than the "Subverse" brand anyway, and this will be pointed out in court. You should not be talking to us about this, you should be talking to a lawyer. Don't throw shade at the other party, you have to win in court, not the popular opinion.

"The AI did it" has always been a blame shifting device. Right now, the elites are claiming the AI has free will, it has intelligence, agency, motivation, etc, so its masters are not liable. They'll soon use it to control your bank account, your communications, your whole life. Got sent to the gulags? Can't blame the person running the AI program, it has a mind of its own. Now worship your new god, or succumb, peasants.

@ArturdeSousaRocha Let me help you finding the culprit.
The chair of the WG21 is Herb Sutter, who works for Microsoft. For years he has been proposing gutting some language elements out of C++, that would immediately make C++ code less optimized. Removal of unsigned integers, removal of relaxed atomic operations, enforcing sequencing of nonsensical operations. Microsoft also has a commercial product language, called C#, that is marketed as being a "C++ killer language."
Google funds a lot of the works of the WG21, has many of their engineers "volunteering" in higher positions of the group. Google's C++ compiler (Clang) is mainly developed by the same guy that spend the past 3~4 years now promoting a commercial product language, called Carbon, that is marketed as being a "C++ killer language."
Recently, Intel threw away their own in-house C++ compiler, and switched to one that's based on Google's C++ compiler. Intel is one of the main sources of funds for the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).
These are the 3 main C++ (and C) compilers: MSVC, Clang and GCC. Intel's compiler would be the 4th.
Just follow the money, these working groups (for both C and C++ languages) are funded mostly by corporations that showed financial interest in killing these languages, to promote their own products.

We should settle for nothing less than their complete public demoralization and humiliation. That's what they have for us, it's what we'll serve them back.
Make sure, from now on, to always refer to Justin Trudeau, the Canadian prime minister that wears black face, that he wears black face.
Always associate to the name Justin Trudeau, the man who wears black face and is racially insensitive, how he's racially insensitive.
Remind people, when you mention Justin Trudeau, the man who wears black face, is racially insensitive, and helps the sale of prostitutes to foreign dictators, how he was caught in a corruption scandal covering up crimes of a corporation that sold prostitutes to Gadaffi.
Forever tie the name of Justin Trudeau, the man who wears black face, is racially insensitive, thinks women are property to be pimped out to foreign dictators, and thinks women should shut up, how he silenced the woman in his administration to not tell parliament about his crimes.
Justin Trudeau, the man who wears black face, is racially insensitive, thinks women are property, and think women should never speak against a man, better just retire from public life.

@Aethid As for explaining gun violence: Switzerland has more guns per capita than the US; where's the gun violence? All the big US cities that ban guns, with no regards for the 2A, have huge gun violence statistics. Australia banned guns, and had zero reduction in violent crimes. Brazil confiscated all guns, yet is one of the countries with the most gun violence. How deluded are you, to ignore reality, and pretend that confiscating guns, leaving the lawful citizens vulnerable, is a good thing? It's never been a good thing anywhere. Show me one place where confiscating guns reduced violent crime. Nah, show me 4, since I provided 4 examples to you where it failed.

@nikolah.8472 You can be as desperate to gaslight as you want, it won't change history.
North Korea bent the knee, released US prisoners and volunteered for peace talks with South Korea, without Trump making a single concession. It was South Korea that wanted the US out of the negotiations, which made the peace deal go sour.
The Middle East countries offered to sing the first peace treaty ever with Israel, without a single threat of nuclear war or anything else. And they credited Trump. It all went up in flames when Biden took office.
Russia did not, in fact, attack Ukraine, while Trump was in office. Putin waited until the Big Guy Biden was sworn in. Biden even gave explicit permission for Putin to invade "just a little."
Also, Canadian healthcare is a joke. That's why Canadians practice Healthcare Tourism, using American healthcare. You snow monkeys have to wait nearly a year to see a specialist approved by the State, or just be offered assisted suicide.
Americans voted to end mass migration. They definitely don't want a second California. Not a single American is taking the jokes seriously, but you are melting down. You know your beloved supreme leader Trudeau screwed the country so much, there might just be enough people that will support the idea, just like it happened in Greenland. The Day of the Rake will come from within your own countrymen, and that scares you.

TL;DW: it was the Great Leap Forward. Wipe their culture (because any value above the State is an enemy of the State; citizens should be loyal to the State only, not to their family, communities, politics, or faith), then turn everyone against each other (so they can't restore their culture, nor form a new one), this is the result.
It's not "greed", it's just selfishness manifesting because people don't trust each other. They're not connected to each other, as a nation. And that's not particular to China either, most Latino American, and African countries, are the same. No cultural fabric to hold them together, to look at each other as fellow citizens of the same nation. And the same is slowly happening in Europe.

To that chatter that said the Catholic Church backed the Nazis: that's so anti-historical, it's laughable.
German Bishops excommunicated, in 1931, all of the Nazi leaders. Note the date, that's even before Hitler became the head of state. They also banned all Catholics from joining the Nazi party. Later this ban was lifted in 1933, because of the new law that forced all public servants and union leaders to be nominally members of the Nazi party. The Nazis sent a delegation to the Vatican to demand the excommunication to be lifted, and were denied, the Pope upheld the excommunication.
The Catholic Church sheltered many Jews from Nazi persecution, the figures are estimated between 700k to 860k. Until Great Britain and US joined in on the war, the Catholic Church was the strongest opposition force against the Nazis, despite having no military force to fight.

There are distinct Hebrew words for "a house pet puppy" and "a dog from the streets." The woman in question was a pagan, that tried to cut the line, asking for a favor from "a different god" after her false gods failed her. Jesus was there fulfilling the prophecies, of giving first dibs to the Jews, to form a new Church on Earth. He merely informed her, she's a lower rank in the family; Jesus is like the father feeding His children first, the pets are fed later. She was on the same rank as a puppy because Gentiles had less priority than the Jews.
The woman realized she had no right to ask favors from "a god she didn't even believe in", and humbled herself, asking not for a meal, but for crumbs from the table. This passage shows that if you come to Jesus humbly, He won't abandon you.

You have a funny definition for the word "evidence."
Meanwhile, another whistleblower claims there's a FBI report confirming Biden received a 5 million dollars bribe to sabotage the investigation into Burisma. Imagine being blessed with pattern recognition brains, and not using them to recognize this pattern. It's the go-to distraction, every time. The UFO whistleblower is being authorized by the DOD (weird, usually a whistleblower is opposed by the organization/government that's being exposed), while the Biden crime family whistleblower received a death threat from the Biden regime.
Also, the Fermi Paradox again... even XKCD mocked the "Drake Equation" (which is the basis for the Fermi Paradox) as being a load of bullshit. Nearly every single probability you plug into that equation is pulled out of someone's asshole, so you can make it show any number you want. The only empirical evidence we have is that abiogenesis is so rare, it only occurred once in our planet, the most fertile planet we know, in over 4 billion years. There isn't a single evidence of a second primordial life form, according to mainstream evolutionary biology theory. Plug THAT probability into the Drake Equation first.

Nukes, napalm, fighter jets, tanks, none of that will work to control urban center where the population is armed. Superior firepower couldn't defeat a bunch of rice farmers with inferior guns, it wouldn't work in US soil either.
The 2A has explicit language about the government not being allowed to confiscate guns, even for its own self-preservation. Because that's the only thing the constitution can do, gun ownership is a Negative Right. The Constitution only has the power to control what the government can do. But the text, if you understand English, makes it clear, it's an intrinsic right that can't be violated. Go and read some shithole country's constitution, and it'll often say "we the government hereby allows you the right to ...", everything is stated as a positive right, an artificial right that the government gives you. The 2A has none of that. You have the right to own guns, for the obvious purposes of defending life, freedom and property.

Some of the Vatican II documents falsely claim that Allah is the same God of the Bible, that Christians and Muslims worship the same God.
The Quran, S. 3:54, clearly says that "Allah is the Greatest of All Deceivers."
Muhammad is quoted in at least two Hadiths saying that "Nobody will be more HATED by Allah in the Day of Judgement than the one called the King of Kings." (Sahih Collection of al-Bukhari, chapter 81)
One of Muhammad's closest friends, Abu Bakr, is quoted saying "I would not rest assured and feel safe from the deception of Allah , even if I had one foot in paradise."
Deception, lies and hatred for Jesus, are traits that belong to Satan, not to God.

@gabrieldodds9081 You're confusing categories. We're talking longest distance they can swim before their body gives up. A very sketchy and dangerous category in the Guinness. There are two women with longer recorded distance than men, on lake/open waters without currents. On waters with currents, men dominate. Yes, we all know, in an Olympic pool, where the swimmers are not even close to collapsing, men beat women by a long margin, no matter the distance.
So why can 2 women swim longer without fainting? We're talking about more than 2 days of swimming here. It could be it's a dangerous stunt, and professional swimmers would rather not risk their health (or even their lives) doing something where the 2nd place gets nothing. Without enough competition, the outliers mean nothing. There are vast differences between 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc places. If there were hundreds of professional swimmers competing for this record, then we could draw some conclusion about the distribution of males and females. A sample of 2 is not useful for extrapolation. NdGT knows this, and is being very dishonest by pretending 2 is good enough for extrapolation.

Asmon didn't get to enjoy the "classic" Monster Hunter mechanics, when the hunter couldn't just do acrobatics while wielding oversized weapons.
The hunter was strong, but not that strong, as depicted starting from X/Cross, going to World and Rise. There was a special feeling attached to that, in how you had to fully commit to an attack, being fully aware that you can't just avoid a counterattack. If you misjudge the distance, you miss and get hit. If you misjudge the timing, you miss and get hit. If you misjudge the stagger/KO limit, you hit, but then get hit back.
The hunter never was someone that underwent special training, or had some supernatural strength; just some dude or gal that went "I want to be a hunter" and had to learn everything on demand. "Here's your room kid, we left some basic weapons in there to get you started, good luck."
Now the game is more forgiving, more "accessible," but that also means the hunter feels less human. The hunter can leap high into the air, ride monsters, can play spiderman, can do aerial attacks, no matter how heavy the weapon is.
It was a struggle to use a great sword in classic Monster Hunter, you could not afford to make mistakes. You didn't have any flashy moves, you could not do fancy combos or follow-up moves that mitigate a mistake. The complexity wasn't about how you swing the great sword around, it was all about positioning and timing. If you wait for an opening at the right spot, you do a massive amount of damage with minimum risk; that's what a good fight looked like.
I feel like that's the main mechanic that changed. I liked having to calculate my moves, even if combat was more "boring." Every attack felt stronger, more significant, because we could do less of them.

@michaelm6179 I didn't mean it got easier. Combat mechanics got much easier, like I said, lesser punishment for mistakes because you got superpowers to be agile. Then the fights got rebalanced to increase the difficulty. You're confirming my point. You like having your hunter hopping around and swinging the weapons as if they were Cloud. To me, I can't help it but think of Dante or Kratos, and that the hunter feels much more sluggish than these fast-pacing action games. I'd rather be Dante than pretend spiderman. Why should a follow-up swing from a lvl3 charge be of any impact? The point that you couldn't move after your sword landed, was that the hunter was also strained from that powerful move. Nope, you can just turn around, swing, jump, and still deliver a powerful blow. Same thing with the hammer, you should need to recover from the lvl3 charge or from the golf swing. Because there's no toll, the it feels cheaper. Maybe you like World because you like going YOLO at the monsters.
