But lukewarm and mid isn’t.

I’m from Europe (Hungary) and I watched the first 20 minutes of the debate (with the intent of finishing the whole thing in one go) before turning it off while basically being on the brink of crying. The US presidents basically have as much say in my life as my own government (if not more) and even though I can’t vote for them, if I had to I’d be lost. Because it’s not that one is old and the other is crazy it’s a freaking Venn diagram of crazy RFK jr., demented Biden and then of course crazy and demented Trump. Seeing the debate and how these people basically can’t put two sentences after each other without breaking up is terrifying. And one of them will be voted into the most important office on the planet.

I mean it’s shit over here. We can choose between a guy who already stole half of our country, someone whose messy divorce somehow made him the most important member of the opposition and this other guy who stole the other half of the country before the current dude did. (And that’s just the tip of the iceberg). But maaan are we a lot better off than the world’s greatest country where two unsupervised parties get to point at the people you can vote into this ridiculously powerful position. And then they pick these guys.

We’re all going to die and I can’t even vote for whoever gets us killed, which is ultimately for the better. This way I can die with a clear conscience.

I don’t see how someone couldn’t make you forget something and then remind you at the time they deem is right. I mean the point of this image is the mystery and I think that would be myterious enough.

Shouldn’t a woman and a man with the same height, weight, and body-muscle percentage be basically identical in terms of athleticism or am I wrong?

I like this. It’s not really helpful in the sense that it seems almost as hard as being perfect yourself, but nonetheless it’s possible, contrary to the alternative.

Don’t get fooled, that’s called stockholm syndrome.

Don’t call it cringe if you haven’t landed on Palermo airport on a small jetplane yet. It’s what I think a rocket launch should feel like.

I switched to it not even three months ago, after two years on arch and I’m not going back. Just as if not more configurable than arch and it’s actually harder to bloat with something and then forget about it, since you always have user-readable description of your current system.

“I thought of that, but not enough to act on it!”

One day I realized I developed a skill for correctly inserting the USB on first try and I’m in an existential crisis ever since.

This is such a great reference!

As far as I know most of our letters are the same.

c and h in my own language (hungarian) and own in english

sounds something like

pots-café-h-father-own (random words to illustrate the way the letters are pronounced)

Lay down and pretend you are dead. This way the solar flare will most likely lose intrest and leave.

I mean I know people who have a lot of ansible knowledge and they were always like “yeah sure it’s declarative, you can ensure files are the correct version and stuff”, but that’s so far away that is from what NixOS does (unless I misunderstood something). I mean, the same task can be accomplished alright, but it’s a bit like writing your own NixOS.

look, i know where i am but this would work so much better with pirates of the caribbean

1. Ethnicity totally can be part of an identity, but that doesn’t mean you have to hate anyone.
2. Don’t misunderstand “closing off borders”. Making the people stay is not okay. Not letting the people that left back is also not okay. Not letting in a different ethnicity? Arguably racist, but I wouldn’t count not letting them into your country as oppression. I’m a christian, so I can’t visit Mecca, yet I don’t feel oppressed.
3. That’s why I said “long established” and that’s why I pointed out that those aren’t many. I don’t think the violence you’d have to use to establish an ethnostate is in any way acceptable. If the ethnostate already stands though, you may use certain tools to preserve it, which are not many and are usually “not enough”.

My take wasn’t that ethnostates are good, but that they are not inherently bad either, it’s just the tools usually used to establish and preserve them that we must condemn.

Faults may be found in the reasoning, but even with that, this may just be the truth.
