  • Beat or being able to flourish once the Goth Galadriel is gone?

    Because historically the revolutionary forces (the one toppling the bourgeoisie) are extremely shitty governors (just continuing mass murdering & plundering which kinda makes sense if you think how & what they have been through).

    In very few historical instances of regime changes all the previous actors as well as anyone involved in the revolution were prohibited in forming the new structure. This helps a lot to actually change the system.

    You wouldn’t want to move from a czar to a dictator, thats long term the same bullshit, only makes things better in short term.

    Same with any oligarchy, if it exists and has power than it matters little what kind of regime it technically is.









  • Dang, was your mom single then? (I’m on my way inventing a time machine).

    I had a similar experience in the 90s, but with a non-cool car - parents bought a TV & to fit it in a tiny car they had to put the back seats down … which left the trunk for me (in a 5-door car, but still, highway speeds, and when I pointed out the safety issues they just said to hold on to a seatbelt … ?).

    The same parents ultra-terrified of me getting in a car accident with anyone (because others are terrible drivers), and to this day terrified I’ll crash my car each and every time Im in it … the patents that totaled a few cars vs me never in an accident and almost keeping up with professional kart racers (well, ““almost””, and even that on my best few laps before ahdh starts fighting me entering a corner).
    Oh, and also the same parents I have to buy tires for against their will & have a few fights with to get them changed.

    Yes, this reply, I was gonna make a joke along the lines that I’m sure to someone saying shit like this (that we invented numbers, imaginary or not) is like the meme forcing Italians to look at pineapple pizza being made …

    … but I would lie if this post didn’t disturb me a bit to - and the “Talk nerdy to me” part just makes it worse. Nerd stuff has to have a certain level of precision, nerd kinks are exact.





  • And maybe about a minute or so more - absolutely not because I wanna cause any discomfort, I just need to process the shock & loss (maybe some abatement issues) to be able to physically move away, back home to my def-not-up-to-date Jelly Fino (thats the name of my main instance).

    (Actually I really should update my Jellyfin client on Tizen … or buy a N100 player or something.)





  • Bcs nobody is monetising it that hard from the ecosystem-monopoly pov.

    And “standardised” prob isn’t the best word to use imho.

    Linux offers much better backwards & current compatibility that the other two/three just do not. Saying ‘it’s not supported’ does “standardise” things much quicker.

    Also there are diffident distros by different people or companies - a bit like saying how Windows & MacOS arent standardised and look/operate differently.
    But you can make your own Linux distro or modify it’s kernel or window/packet/etc manager all you wish.

    Also the point about how Windows and Android keeps changing stupid shit for no reason (un-standardising the UI experience though time) but an average user like my father prob didn’t even know when his Debian got upgraded (even between distros he didn’t notice that much, now I have him on a rolling distro & it’s even more seamless tho others basically do the same).

    Oh, and if by ‘standardised’ you mean the look & feel … well thats for nerds and power users, people like to optimise stuff for themselves. A bit like car seats where one fixed seat won’t fit all.
