Most significant difference is that Nobara updates muuch faster, so you’ll have a much more recent kernel and the freshest mesa graphics stack.
Upside is that more recent and/or AAA games will run better, downside is that you might to need to do some debugging if something breaks.
The luggage tag of the US
Not even a caricature because getting your hands broken is actually still not as bad as starving to death.
Let me use an example. Let’s say you’re my partner, and it’s movie night. I give you a choice between two movies: Star Wars, and Harry Potter. However, if you choose Harry Potter for movie night, I will actually break both your hands with a sledgehammer.
I say I’m giving you a choice, but do you actually have a fair choice?
Shilling for Russia is the default alt-right neo-Nazi position.
China has the potential of being the shining example of socialism, but you can’t ignore Taiwan, Hong Kong, China rewriting maps to expand its own territory, or Xi ending term limits so he can rule indefinitely.
Dunno what you mean bc there is plenty of Russian and Chinese imperialism, as though that’s somehow better than America.
That’s not what he said but I sense you’re going to have an opinion to share about it anyway.
I’m in management, if I need someone to stay late I’ll say please and ask, and if they say no, I respect it. I don’t expect anybody to work outside of their scheduled hours.
That’s class solidarity. None of us are owners, we are all the labor.
Being anti-American-imperialism is great, what’s suspect is the apparent Soviet ultra-nationalism, which somehow extends to Russia, so the same people who say they are against imperialism and in favor of gay rights end up supporting an imperialist, colonialist, and insanely homophobic empire.
And yes, lots of countries in the West do lots of very bad things. I think the vague, broad, all-encompassing term of “the West” is about creating an out-group boogieman man for the in-group to identify itself against. And that’s how you get people supporting a country that represents almost everything against their apparent values. Russia gets a pass for using homophobic conspiracy theories to justify a military invasion, because it’s “against the West”.
Michael Hudson’s “Super Imperialism: The Economic Strategy of American Empire” is a good source.
Thank you, I’m grabbing an audiobook version to listen to, I am interested in learning more.
I definitely forgot all what I said, and I regret being that much of a dick. I did read the sources on Cuba and by that point I think I was banned, because I was trying to thank the person who posted it for me.
I think that if I’m dishing it out to people, I should be prepared to take it from them too. It’s a bit late to go back, but for anyone who confronts me about it, I will humble myself and apologize for my remarks about the pronouns. And for what it’s worth, I apologize to you for my pronoun comments. People deserve to feel safe in their gender identity,
that their pronouns “look like an alt-right satire of pronouns”
Not excusing what I said, but to explain, this is after several days of seeing a bunch of - completely new to me accounts - who happen to have double and neo pronoun sets, act a certain type of way. I might have never even really noticed the pronouns if it wasn’t for their 4chan-esque behavior first. I very quickly began to mentally associate 4chan behavior to people who have double and neo pronoun sets.
And there were occasional good things - I learned that a common term for desktop theming had racist origins, and now I know better than to use that term. But even in that same thread there was another trying to race bait the very people who were trying to be better.
So there are hexbears trolling, race baiting, and defending Russia (which is a whole conversation) - regardless the end result is comments that would be identical to the alt-right. So I see alt-right clone comments coming from people with double sets of neo-pronouns, and I made a bad and wrong assumption.
The biggest mystery is still why hexbear seems collectively intent on making communists and progressives look so bad. Cuba offers many amazing examples of how progressive policies work well. Why choose to die on some alt-right hills, particularly when it comes to sexual harassment, fetishization of violence, race baiting, and Russia?
Yeah, the more you look at it, the worst it gets.
“all women are at least 4 crazy”, not to mention that part where it can’t decide if it’s transphobic, or trans fetishizing.
Yeah, I’m asking you about your personal preferences.
My personal preference would be that labor is regulated so that child labor is illegal. And that guns are legal but reasonably regulated so that I don’t have to carry an arsenal with me because someone at the grocery store with diagnosed mental illness packing a ton of heat might get upset and decide to unload into a crowd of people.
What kinds of guns?
Which guns would you take to work or go grocery shopping?
Which guns would you give your kids to go to school?
Where would you buy ammunition when the gangs and cartels control all gun and ammunition trade? (Along with the synthetic drugs and human trafficking)
There’s a lot more drugs than just the ones you grow at home.
Robust self defense like what? I reallyyy want to know what you consider to be a robust self defense.
An actual 100% free market would be rife with drug and human trafficking.
It’s good to have some regulation, and by and large the US is a mostly free market. You are free to start almost any business you want.
Quite. Obviously Hitler was defeated by the combined military might of the allies.
But the important take-away is not, “violence is always the answer”, the important take-away is, “what socio-economic conditions in Germany lead to a fascist like Hitler rising up to dictator power”.

This ironic statement is what is known as a thought-terminating cliche.

The US has never been a country that’s good or fair. It’s only very slowly gotten a little better through the sweat and blood of good people.
If we want it to get better it’s going to be a lot of difficult and painstaking work.
