No ambiguous characters, nice ligatures

Is it really conspiratorial when the people who own all of the capital create political parties, lobbying groups, think tanks, newspapers, etc to collectively push their ideas of how the world should work into action? It’s a conspiracy for sure, one that is in the open and well documented. And my analysis literally does discuss the dialectic of individual actions with their corresponding class and broader class organizations, it’s my main point even. Furthermore, I’m not mansplaining a passing interest in Marxism; I’m not a man, I’m presenting my analysis while trying to acknowledge shared aspects with yours, and I’ve been active in organizing for Marxist, decolonial, and social justice struggles for over a decade. I think it does us no favors to bury our heads in the sand and ignore the structure of the system in front of us for individualized analysis. And stripping the nuance from the argument I present to make it out as class reductionist does nothing for either of us. I’m talking about acknowledging class at all when your argument seems to be to ignore it entirely. Yes individuals within a class can have conflicting desires or interests, the point is that they primarily share their core interests and rally behind them, and we have endless examples of this.

“Antifascist Action” was first used by the Communist Party of Germany during the Weimar years (As “Antifaschistische Aktion”). It was a united front to oppose the Nazis rise and materially fight back against the brown shirts and their allies. It’s also where we get the common logo associated with antifascism today

Yes, their class interests push them into class solidarity and coordinated actions to suppress the working class. It doesn’t have to be a conscious individual alignment for it to be class warfare, all that matters is they do align themselves and collectively wield their power for their shared goals, which the capitalists do. I don’t see how you can recognize their shared material interests and the ways in which that manifests in them as a class coordinating for those interests along common lines, and still look at it as random individual actions just being stumbled into. I don’t know what argument you think you’re making, I don’t think the current crop of capitalists created capitalism nor consciously devised its mechanisms. They are part of this socioeconomic system though, it doesn’t just happen to them, regardless of the fact it existed before this generation of its ruling class. There absolutely is a group of people responsible for this outcome: the bourgeoisie and the state that serves them. It is a feature of capitalism.

I agree with the logic you present for why the capitalist class wants policies like this, but the specific timing does come from coordinated efforts here. It’s class warfare and they have intense organization amongst themselves. The charge is being led by big tech firms and their lobbying groups making a unified push right now to consolidate their control over online speech, communication, and surveillance. But the reasoning you present is absolutely sound

Winlator or gamehub could probably run it on Android. And FEX does get valve funding but it’s actually an independent effort

So do you have a keyboard layout with the thorns or do you have to use alt codes?

It’s confirmed coming to Motorola hardware next year. With more funding and institutional support I’m sure they could assemble a larger pool of devices that meet their requirements

They could throw support behind GrapheneOS, it’s great and it’s Canadian eh

You’re right I misread the comment when I responded, mea culpa

I’ve had a good experience with the open source official ones on an Ampere generation GPU, sorry it didn’t work for yall. I should also say that they’re only available for Turing up if I recall. The other open source ones like nouveau, nova, and NVK are incomplete and for most cards offer a bad gaming experience, so if you have an older card it’s preferable to use the proprietary

You don’t need the proprietary one anymore, the open source drivers from nvidia are better

I know someone who lives there and loves it, but they have had issues with petty crime. Also one developer having most of the ownership of your community is not great.

Also “America’s first car free neighborhood” is so goofy. We had neighborhoods before cars existed lmao

It’s the disadvantage of using a marketing term like “AI” to refer to literally any type of software using machine learning. We know the strengths and weaknesses of ML, it’s the current trend of pushing it as “intelligence” and a cure-all to replace workers that gives it a bad rap. Then the slop machine chatbots get treated with the same attitude as actually useful tools, and both get a reputation they don’t deserve

I name everything after celestial objects. Stars, galaxies, constellations, and nebula are all good sources of names. Not the ones with the random number names, stuff like Andromeda and Sirius

The rest of the world isn’t in a state of perpetual war. The rest of the world isn’t toppling governments to install subservient leaders. The rest of the world doesn’t have 800+ military bases around the world. That’s just the US and NATO. They are the imperial core and they operate differently from the countries that are anti imperialist or being imperialized. Hope that helps

Even the most vote-blue-no-matter-who Democrat ideology is fundamentally imperialist and genocidal. Don’t kid yourself. That’s always been the function of the US military

There’s an immense difference between a conscripted person dying in a war versus a volunteer soldier dying in an aggressive war of choice. You’re arguing for sympathy for the modern equivalent of the fucking SS on their way to roll through Eastern Europe

As a mathematician, it should be noted that the mathematics of physics aren’t laws of the universe, they are models of the laws of the universe. They’re useful for understanding and predicting, but are purely descriptive, not prescriptive. And as they say, all models are wrong, but some are useful
