Maybe relevant but I've heard that a group of 500 people is easy for cops to deal with but 10 groups of 50 is impossible.

If you go to a march and you didn't walk away more organized than you walked in, you haven't done anything.

Looks like China's bracing for impact. I think they kind of know that America has only its military left which is why it's unveiling a bunch of new military equipment recently. I just hope the US doesn't go nuclear in its final convulsions.

Can't wait. How exciting would it be if China did to the chip market what they did with electric cars?

What's the support for RISC-V like for your favorite distro?

NixOS has some preliminary support from a handful of people, so that's a good start. I would expect to have to put in some significant work to daily drive it though.

I'm not sure why you are considering giving money to Amazon, please don't, they can go fuck themselves. They lock you into using their services forever by having large egress fees for moving your data out. The popular open source NixOS project was hit with this recently and it highlighted this predatory issue: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/the-nixos-foundations-call-to-action-s3-costs-require-community-support/28672

Do you really have more than a few TB of data? I would be surprised if you do. Just use a cheap VPS for storage: https://contabo.com/en/storage-vps/ has 2.4TB for 18$/month. Contabo has famously shitty support but they still have it and my experience with it has shown me that the cheap makes up for it.

I actually don't understand how a wiki with 22,000 pages of text and 4,000 files can be "very costly" to host. Please don't go the wikipedia route with the expenses.

Anyone not a white anglo doesn't even register as human for the average redditor. They're worse than 4chan users because they're not even trying to be edgy. It's the worst website full of propaganda and you should stay off it.

Canada protects fascists, builds memorials for them (named "Victims of Communism" but the names on it are nazis), so I think it's an explicitly fascist country built on genocide that is, surprise, still funding genocide.

It's getting more overt every day however, and globally you can see two sides forming again.

as if jlai.lu users weren’t agressive in this discussion as well

I just posted a story on a lefty imageboard about some guy swiping my friend on the sidewalk and when my very weakly tapped him back in the face he made a scene like he was assaulted. Liberals are dangerous hyper-individualistic villains. I actually consider them a direct enemy of today's left, and not some neutral third party. These french users sound the same.

Not sure how that "wipes out Maoists" but I like the quote.

So they're escalating? This isn't good.

Canada is a fascist shithole with insane grocery prices.

Yesterday I was writing a git commit message. I have my terminal configured to use vim to do this. I wrote half of a lengthy explanation with a very long chain of thought and paused for a second to proofread. Then I turned around and accidentally mashed a button which pasted my clipboard all over my nice message. I was like fuck I'll just undo, but I guess I hit more than one key because after hitting undo i was left with a blank message.

I thought I had to start writing from scratch and then remembered that vim has time travel. I'm not joking. You just say :earlier 2m and it goes back to the state two minutes ago. But here's the thing it actually has branched history, kind of like git. If you undo and then make some modifications you have made an alternate branch in the history. I hit g- (or g+ I forget) and got my message back.

Having flipping time travel with every possible history is an absolutely batshit insane thing to implement into a "simple" editor, and I seldom use this feature, but it actually saved my ass and I'm glad people like Bram spent what was probably an eternity on implementing stuff like that.
