And you can keep moving till you find a 100% compatible admin/mod/owner who will not erase your posts but erase everyone else’s posts. And this fragmentation of dictatorships is better than an empire of censorship.

Welcome to the autonomous and federalized dictators’ club

Here is a critical view that should be taken seriously

If capitalism is a brutally and violently enforced inequality, being authoritarian is a very mild characteristic. An army is authoritarian. Capitalism works as a club of dictators, as each corporation is one. There is no such thing as a democratic corporation, even when the dictator decides to share some ownership, the structure is a dictatorship.

What falsely poses as democracy is a condition where the terrorized are in peace with the monopoly of violence (the state) because they see no other option for survival. Outside of W.Europe and N.America most people see democracy as the absolute hypocrisy by western media.

You can separate capitalism from fascism as one side of the coin with the other. Capitalism invented fascism to defend it when the nation/state couldn’t anymore, against labor and unionism of late 19th century. From paid thugs shooting strikers to off duty cops carrying assassinations, torture and terrorism, to the evolution of a pseudo-ideology to take over Germany and attack the Soviet-Union, which in their eyes was the source of the problems western industrialists faced. Fascism grows from inside the very nature of capitalism and it is inseparable.

First they came for “antifa” and when it is all done and finished they will again come for “antifa” …

Because it is capitalism we are talking about and its fascist nature of brutally and violently enforcing inequalities (of all sorts)

Imagine your kids lying dead in an airliner crash plainly due to lack of proper maintenance and there is no agency investigating whose fault it was, just corporations covering each other’s butt up.

No justice just pure capitalism

Gradually this entire society is going to be pushed towards a civil war where male wasps will win and blame the war on everyone else. Already Trump has empowered the militant right and winked an eye to do attrocities in the form of paramilitary reaction against people mobilizing to strike, protest, organize.

This whole scenario is the US managing its defeat in Ukraine where the entire NATO went against Russia and lost, on one side, on the other side it will politically shift blame for the declining and collapsing $/oil economy that is imploding mainly due to its declining industrial and raw material base.

Industrial capital leading a banking federation is what capitalism’s core is. The “west” thought through the banking/oil choke hold it can control industrial capital which has now shifted together with the world’s primary raw material sources. So we have a collision course of two capitalist adversaries with the US not willing to accept defeat to avert a large scale war.

But if nobody can be wise enough to lead and beat some sense into the US/EU/UK elitism material conditions will. And the bubble of living and surviving on the blood and sweat of the rest of humanity without a cost will be violently coming to its end. In US/UK/EU, due to this condition politics range from right-wing pro-capitalism to ultra-right-wing pro-capitalism all against humanity.

Poor Israel is realising this western ally is collapsing on its own and is taking measures to be able to survive this phase of global war caused by the US/UK/EU

There are some really old introductory unix texts of how the system is structured and why, 99% of this stuff is still true for most linux (except some weird experimental alternatives where people tried to create ms-unix ). The basic terminal commands should also be useful, and help you understand. For example open a terminal and see the command for copy (cp) or (mv) or mkdir rm rmdir and use -h for the help of the options of each (if -h doesn’t work then --help does) and then extensive documentation is found by name of command after “man” for manual ex: man chmod

One of the most magical things that happens in unix is mount, where you create a directory (mount point /mnt), take a device like your usb stick volume named sdb1

mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt

ls -lah /mnt

say you create /tmp/disks and in it a b c d e and mount 5 disks in a through e and it appears as one subdirectory /tmp/disks

Instead of looking at a file browser and something going cling-clong and appearing as a volume, what dumb people do

I think ntfs does some weird shit with translating names of files in different languages too, and maybe they are simlinks

Say desktop is translated to ntesctop in some language, the real file is still desktop but there is a link as ntesctop --> desktop so without changing the system it flips from one language to another. I am not sure, I haven’t really spent much time on it, in recent years I did some installations at work but never got to play with it much.

I think you need to be banned you troll, you are nothing but a time waster offering nothing but characterizations in a rational discussion

The difference with a small group of devs writing code and offering it free and corporate thugs treating coders like sponges to produce code is the lack of resources can be understood and forgiven. Take a project like brave-nightly (browser fork of glugle-elechrom) there are 3-5-8 new releases a day, 8-6 Pacific US time, when they go home on Fri. the next release is Monday afternoon, the “free” coders usually begin work Friday night and end Monday at dawn!

Sure, corp.XYZ sends them an offer one day and buys their work and even offers them incentives to work for them, then it all goes down hill!

It ends up being as nasty racist and ethnocentric as kernel.org.com - us state dept fed and controlled

Don’t take me wrong, I hate Putin just as much as I hate Biden or Trump, don’t misinterpret what I say

But between hating Trump and discriminating against you because you are from Nebraska is the difference between a racist and a non-racist …
Something the linux-duo-Fins can not separate, hence their delirium with nationalist rhetoric and lack of historical understanding.

gittea is also a company now, forgejo is open and free, trully free

other than codeberg disroot has been running forgejo too I wouldn’t want to use anything but forgejo

if you have a rational argument please translate it, if you have run out respect the rest of the discussion and keep it in English

True, between arch and gentoo wiki you can hardly find any other information that is worth your while.

I’d rather use windows 7 than ever go back to Debian … something with 7 being the last good version of anything ;)

Once you learn pacman is hard to go to anything substandard and slow, so you are hooked.

quick, quick, explain in one sentence whether the newb should go with musl of gliMBc … hurry … the screen is about to turn black and the installer will be gone

A beginner to what, to pacman, to arch, to rolling distro, to linux, to unix, to a PC, to using man-made tools …

I made an installation to an old pc once, I though it would last a while, and since the users could barely understand what an on/off button does, they just wanted google and facebook, so it was a wm with two browsers, daughter already knew what chrome was, and in the login shell I wrote a script that each new day it booted it attempted pacman -Suy --noconfirm then once a week the cache was emptied and the logs trimmed.

That was before covid, a couple months ago I met her, she said it has been working fine every since.

So there is your dinner

PS Actually it wasn’t arch it was artix with runit but that is about the same
