Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

This is the douchebag behind Trump / Vance this round too.

This guy had no problem with the illegal horrible stuff. He's just sad it got exposed and now they have to watch themselves.

This guy is the biggest pieces of shit. I hope a swarm of worms eat him from inside out. Also the reason why I completely stopped contributing to NixOS - Anduril and Palantir.

Uggh. I occasionally browse r/haskell since I like using the language for personal projects. Someone posted a job offering from Andruil and literally everyone in that shitty subreddit except 1 guy was gushing over the idea of working for them. Tech workers are fucking hopeless. On a totally unrelated note I quit my developer job recently due to burnout and am doing some soul searching because I don't think I can work in the field anymore without losing my sanity.

On a totally unrelated note I quite my developer job recently due to burnout and am doing some soul searching because I don’t think I can work in the field anymore without losing my sanity.

How funny, I have been unemployed for almost two years after graduating, and I am looking for a job, I kinda blame the elitist nerdbro in me, but I don't want to work as a Shopify or WordPress dev.

I wish I was disciplined and smart enough to get into something like Jane Street because they're probably one of those companies that make use of functional programming religiously, kek, but I am always so distracted and spend the most of my days maintaining software for distros and documenting bugs reports.

Damn, I'm sorry man. I graduated at the height of the great recession and after scrambling for a job for a year before caving and taking something maintaining some dumb custom PHP inventory system for a small business. Only got my previous job (doing driver development) through sheer dumb luck. It was as close to my dream job of OS development as was probably possible, and the company made a real physical thing instead of another pointless app. But the place really did a number on me, and I feel less capable then I used to be.

The job market is also worse in some ways now than it was then, which is crazy. There may be more jobs available now than then, but the ones now seem shittier and the job search process is somehow even more degrading. Im considering joining the local brick layers union. Wish you the best of luck, and I wish good tech jobs didn't fall into either the dumbest product you've ever heard of, or working for some of the most evil forces on the planet.

How is NixOS connected to Palantir and Anduril?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

They were both NixCon sponsors, either directly or indirectly. NixOS' organisation head do what they feel like, without asking the community.

The CIA doesn't torture USian billionaires enough.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Do they torture them at all?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 week ago

They don't, to my knowledge. This is very concerning.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

No, and that's why it's not enough. Torture billionaires until they shut the fuck up.

He saw the Gollum torture scene in Fellowship and thought that should be official policy at all black sites.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

Didn't he finance the red scare podcast too?

All billionaires are monsters, but some aspire to be Count Dracula in more ways than one.
