I had to look it up. Yuck. A lot of users are just beta testers aren’t they? At least with Linux you know that people care about fixing it. But Windows, it’s a mess.

No it won’t be good if the global economy collapses but it isn’t good to keep it on life support either. Time to euthanise the economy and rebuild from the ashes I reckon.

Proof?

I don’t care about the downvotes. I intentionally view ALL posts in the feed, I don’t hide anything just because of low score. The lowest score might be the best!

Nice. I’m following this on telegram. I don’t use the app I just type t.me/intelslava into my browser. Looks like everything is blowing up right now yee-haw 😎

You’ll laugh at this in 10 years.

oh great thanks for mentioning it, I’m behind a router so I thought I was pretty safe. Though I do share a place with 10 other people so who knows what’s inside this house.

Almost no reporting on this at all lol. Putin even told Trump over the phone that Russia had taken Konstantinovka, maybe BBC might have mentioned it during their live coverage for America 250? No idea but maybe later this week they will come clean and admit it… stinky-ass propagandists!

Instead of covering Konstantinovka, BBC ran a story about high school students being recruited for the Russian Army.

I find that reinstalling and setting up Linux again is a lot quicker than Windows. I put Windows 10 on a spare drive fairly recently, and the amount of restarts it needs to get all the updates is flippin’ nuts. Windows nearly crashes for the first few hours, until I get all the updates installed and drivers set up. Too much background crap. In linux I can be ready in about 20 minutes.

All my equipment is 8 years old and I can’t afford a new system - not even a basic one. I’m permanently unemployed (until the economy fixes itself) but at least it’s put the brakes on wasted money. Now it’s just food + rent + transport.

If I want games then there’s Xbox and other systems for that, so gaming is not going to entice me back to Windows. Sure there are some games on Steam that aren’t on Xbox but I’m still finding dozens of games to play or replay on Xbox.

If I bought a new system in the future I’d put Linux on it again. There may be some occasional issues but it’s a lot better than Windows which I see as too commercialised. Microsoft wants me to use their browser and search engine, and any “free” application that I install will have ads and nag me to pay a subscription. On Linux I don’t have this problem with my apps and there aren’t any pop-ups except tips upon start-up. I really can’t go back because it’s not for me. I’m not a wealthy person looking to spend $2 a month on cloud storage or buy hundreds of games in 90% sales only to never play them. It isn’t my mindset.

I worry that my lyric booklets will get humidity damage.

My old music CDs still work on the stereo and I bought some of my Megadeth albums in 2011. Perhaps music lasts longer than data.

I never read the book by David Ray Griffin on this subject, but I’m aware of how absurd the Bin Laden tapes were. One day he’s wearing camo and has an AK next to him - then the next day he’s wearing ceremonial gold/yellow robes and he’s so far away from the camera that you can’t tell whether he’s CGI or not. There’s a whole load of crap about “no planes theory” and how it was all CGI, but there’s almost no discussion regarding the Bin Laden tapes being CGI.

People also forgot about those weird anthrax letters. I watched a stupid Netflix documentary about the anthrax letters and in the end they admitted that nobody actually saw the supposed mastermind put the anthrax into the mail box. He could have been blackmailed or god-knows what, we will never know. Back to my homie OBL:

“The US political discourse and foreign policy in recent years has been based on the assumption that Osama bin Laden is still alive. George W. Bush promised as president that he would get Osama bin Laden dead or alive and has been widely criticized for failing to do so. The US s present military escalation in Afghanistan is said to be necessary to get Osama bin Laden. The news media regularly announce the appearance of new messages from bin Laden. But what if Osama bin Laden died in December 2001 which is the last time a message to or from him was intercepted? In this book, David Ray Griffin examines the evidence for the claim made by everyone from former CIA agent Robert Baer to Oliver North that bin Laden is surely no longer with us. He analyzes the purported messages from bin Laden and finds that, as many have suspected, they do not provide evidence of bin Laden s existence after 2001. This leads naturally to the question: if Osama bin Laden did indeed die in 2001, how and why have dozens of messages from bin Laden appeared since then? Griffin s meticulous analysis supports above all one simple and urgent conclusion: if Osama bin Laden is dead, the US should not be using its troops and treasure to hunt him down.”

If the war ended tomorrow, Ukraine would lose 20% of its territory. That’s not a victory, that’s a defeat.

Search engines need to stop promoting Reddit links on the front page. But they won’t, so I guess I’ll try to use Brave Search more often, maybe they will listen if it becomes a big problem.

9/11 was an inside job

Board games and card games, but nothing as complicated as Magic The Gathering.

When I say card games I mean games like “World Changers”. I don’t play card games with regular decks (jack queen, king, joker etc)

It’s a pain in the ass when you want to run a web server on your PC. You have to disable SELINUX else the damn thing won’t let me modify html pages and show the updates. Everything is just frozen from making any changes. That said, it’s probably easier to do web development another way, my method is nearly two decades obsolete. SELINUX really pissed me off though. I wanted to test forum software on my PC once, and SELINUX was blocking me and I couldn’t figure it out for ages.

The articles on RT explained it very well - the Anchorage talks could lead to an agreement but Ukraine won’t surrender the remaining 15% of Donetsk and Europe keeps arming and assisting Ukraine. Something must be done to make Europe think twice about its actions. Supplying Ukraine with weapons and allowing Ukraine to kill Russian civilians is unacceptable, there is no reason why Ukraine should kill dozens of Russians every month in the border towns. Russia has become too tolerant. They’ve made public warnings for weeks (about NATO countries allowing Ukraine to attack via their air space) this happened before the Ukrainian attack in Luhansk.
