I do hope you are correct.

Especially in the us? Definitely. Just in the US. I think it’s impacted everywhere. Things like the internet have seen to that. Just look at the situation when it comes to libertarianism. If one was to do a search for libertarianism. 99.9% of the information you turn up regardless of where you’re from. Will deal with the right wing larpers. You actually have to dig to find out much about Joseph dejacques or any other early libertarians.

I definitely think things are better over in europe. Having much more political diversity and better education. It’s harder to co-opt terms than it is here. But it’s still informs language choice these days to not be confused. Those on the left much more likely to be identified as Anarchist than libertarian. So as not to be associated with those right-wing ghouls much as communist often refrain from identifying his communist due to all the people who larped as Communists and all the crimes they’ve committed.

Indeed, the missuse and coopting is how libertarianism was stolen by the right as well. People more often associating it with the antithesis of libertarianism. Ghouls like Peter Thiel. And not Joseph Dejacque.

Recently switched a system from arch to tumbleweed. After another required manual update intervention. So far I quite like it. And if as claimed is stable enough to not have me having to troubleshoot updates. I will likely be switching several more. It’s not quite as on the bleeding edge as arch. But it still has plasma 6.4 and blender 4.4 etc which are the big things for me.

Yep, blaming the failure of the soviet state on something they didn’t have; communism. And not on their answer to every problem, brutal repressive authority. Much like where the US is now speeding towards. Just screams either disingenuousness or ignorance.

Lol no worries I honestly forgot the spin-off even existed. I was always much more of an IT Crowd person myself. Saw a decent meme someone posted a while back relating to the three main characters of the show with regards to autistic social masking.

100%. It’s sort of like an owner’s manual for your life lol. It really can help you understand your impulses and frustrations. And even overcome them sometimes. It’s not possible all the time. But just knowing can make all the difference.

Sort of, yes. Basically don’t be a Sheldon. If you are capable of taking care of yourself or self-diagnosing. You are also capable of understanding and mitigating your behavior and triggers. As well as knowing when to apologize to neuro normies.

Going back to the reference to the show. Nearly all of the main characters on there could be seen as being on the Spectrum somewhere. Sheldon’s utter lack of self-awareness and treatment of others was a setup for jokes etc. It was infantalizing. That sort of thing in real life would stress even the best of friends. Neurodivergent or otherwise.

Diagnosis is about understanding. Understanding is the treatment. And understanding goes both ways. It’s a bridge between us and neuro normies.

If you identify with any of the things on the list. It’s definitely not at all wrong to do some mild self diagnosis. The thing to remember, is that diagnosis official or otherwise does not excuse behavior. But it can help you to understand it and overcome it. And there’s no downside in that.

It may be your setup. I’ve used rustdesk to connect from an Intel with an Nvidia card to an Intel with an AMD card. And from an Intel to An Arm based raspberry pi. From my Android phone to all of them and from them to the Android phone. I’ve never had an issue.

The thing to check out is if you have any firewalls enabled. Much like forwarding ports for remote X sessions. You will have to forward ports for VNC or rust desk

Without X there is no X forwarding. So that’s pretty much it. Honestly it’s been over 20 years since I used a remote x-session much. For modern tasks especially it’s not as functional as even vnc or something like rust desk.

Outside those playing around with retro systems and software locked to them. Or a few isolated archaic business systems. Most will never notice the difference.

They implied those things would stop a nuclear blast to us. Duck and Cover.

Reverse Scooby doo

Yep this really just seems like a tragedy from someone being overzealous. In the end only hurting allies. There’s no good outcome from this. But arguably the worst I think is to demonize an ally in an attempt to deflect blame. By shooting “preemptively” they’re where there blame lays unfortunately.

I don’t necessarily think that there should be imprisonment or jail in this for anyone. It was all completely unintentional. And doesn’t serve any public good. But I think unfortunately a lot of people are going to want someone to crucify or demonize.

You literally implied that women fighting for the right to be included everywhere. Was about supremacy. That feminism is about supremacy. Your own words. Read your previous post. Perhaps you misspoke. But I don’t think so. And neither did most of the other people reading.

Heh, I’m aware of DT but know nothing of a gun video. But he certainly gave a vibe like the 8 bit guy. So not surprised.

Yeah I think Brody was spot on with his assessment that this is exactly what a fork should be for. And people who want it will be able to use the fork Etc and X work will have its stability for now.

I only have a general perception of what happened with Lunduke. But I don’t know the specifics about what happened etc. Who was 2.0? Lol I wasn’t even aware of that necessarily for there to be a 3.0

Very likely.

Both sides however have behaved badly and both have valid points. Brodie had a decent video on it. Though for me the BS DEI claims are beyond the pale.

The Dev in question was pushing a number of breaking changes. Which yeah, if you’re pulling from git you’re gonna git bugs every once in a while. The problem is releases are so infrequent. People are pulling from the git and trying to use it for daily use. In order to get more up to date features. Some of the free desktop guys got a little too harsh with him. But then he sort of let loose with this whole Dei Etc psychosis. Which did him no favors.

Courage the cowardly dog.

The man in gauze, the man in gauze!
