Femicide doesn’t get solved with more laws. It’s a deep rooted issue which needs education. Proper support for abused people, really investigating and enforcing laws. Providing mental health support.

It’s not like the people who are killing women right now are too worried about the existing laws. They do it out of hate and cowardice. Cultural expectations, mental health issues. And just because “they can”.

But really. Support for women before they are killed. In many cases, the signs show way before and the abusers are let go with just a warning.

Most people are already under water and Christmas hasn’t event came.

It says “for the first time”

I was just following the rants but I couldn’t let this pass.

I agree that China will be the next power. In fact, I like China and have many Chinese friends. Been there and I may visit again.

With that out of the way, calling someone racist and at the same time calling them rabid dogs is next level ironic. Do some self introspection.

You seem unhinged.

(I hope you understood all the words)

That’s not being argumentative. That’s being responsible before spreading it. I’m sure the person you replied to confirmed and has the credible sources handy. Right? right?

The timing of this post is almost comical.

Maybe a bunch of lemmytors read it and went to try, resulting in an unexpected volume.

Why does it need to go on mass production? OP explained they want to get to a point where they share their design.

I keep repeating the same about Linux and other free software projects. The main goal is freedom, not market share.

OPs project seems to follow the same goals. And I find it awesome.

I’d send them to the builder if my beach house to finally finish, but in sure he’ll still ask for more.

For me:

• Better auto complete.
• Better scripting language
• Easier to create built in functions
• Nicer prompt configuration

There may be some others but I find Bash clumsy (or maybe I’m just clumsy in bash) when I need to use it.

The reason of the confusion is clear.

The US propaganda has always equated Communism and totalitarianism.

It is bonkers that people in the USA cannot distinguish between an economic system and a political system.

Those two are distinct things. True communism is very democratic. But reading the Communist manifesto is heretic in the US and you are left with what your leaders tell you.

The Russian Revolution was communist but the USSR was never communist.

Right wing totalitarian dictators also use starvation of their own people as means of control.

What you are experiencing in the US is totalitarianism and while it hasn’t gotten to USSR levels, it is going on that direction.

Food for thought: study the political system in China, you’d be surprised how it’s actually more democratic than the current USA. Yes, the CCP controls the nominations. Now, tell me if there is true plurality in the US, two right wing parties selecting their candidates without any real popular input.

Really you’ve been bamboozled to think there is real democracy in the US.

What i did in my last road trip (19 months) was:

• Configure the camera to record in 1 minute segments
• I wrote a script to use ffmpeg concatenate all the videos for a particular day while accelerating them e.g. 8x

It’s still a large amount of data but I can remember my trip day by day throughout 49,000 Km. (Well, less than that because I wrote the script half way)

People compare gnome to Desktops with a 30 year old interface which is painfully cumbersome but that they are used to.

I was on the no Gnome camp after Gnome 2 but came back around Gnome 40 (2022) and I was surprised at how simple and stable it is. I agree that many things that are extensions should be built in, but I also agree with the filosophy of not spreading resources to thin and if people want a feature, they can build it.

I only use two or three extensions but mostly need only one: Forge.

I still use Niri as my primary environment but I think that Gnome is good.

I grind my teeth every time I need to use an environment with an old style menu and cumbersome tiling.

C’mon. End users haven’t used drop down menues to start apps for a long time. The iOS/Android drawer style is more comfortable and can adapt to the user’s organizational preferences.

Become “so bad” is different than “I don’t like it”

A lot of people use gnome without any issues. It’s stable, it has one of the simplest workflows and it’s generally out of the way.

No machine is faster and more stable. There are open source implementations too.

It’s not only commercial software.

We’ve come to expect more from our computers and as our processors gain more power we find ways to use it. I’m running things on a laptop that before would have required a workstation. I wanted to run an LLM on an old desktop, and 8GB RAM wasn’t enough.

We know totalitarian aren’t above starving their own people. History has many examples.

The whataboutism going on on a single direction is easily explainable.

If we live in a “western country” criticism of surveillance in our country is our focus. If you mention surveillance in China. Still surveillance in our country is our focus. As in “we live here, why are you focusing there”.

How do you differentiate whataboutism from highlighting the antichinese hypocrisy?

Us a surveillance state good? No. Is a commercial surveillance society good? Also no.

Is targeting minorities for dedication good? Not from my perspective.

Is targeting minorities for incarceration keeping said minority poorer? Also not from my perspective.

It’s not whataboutism is that many people forget they are living in a distopian society with out realizing it.

When you have a charger owner and a charger and the only smart thing is the charger 🤣

He knows how things work “we do as we please” they are not done the way she thinks “we do it as the law and rules say”.

Bless his heart.
