Quite frankly anybody that's still defending the Democratic Party and the AIPAC-driven Harris 2024 campaign sounds more like a bot than any of the real people I talk about politics with every day who absolutely despise both Trump and the feckless, centrist Dems.
What are we supposed to do instead? Hug and kiss her for flubbing what should have been an easy election?
What has Kamala said or done in the last 9 months to fight the fascist regime? Has she called for people to get on the streets and protest or called for a general strike? No, shes done fuck all except write a book full of excuses for losing from her Bel Air mansion. And you're over here defending it, its pathetic.
Support to these workers striking - Mark Carney promised he wouldn't do austerity like Pollievre and hes blatantly breaking that promise with funding cuts for Canada Post. If there's a crisis at Canada Post its because they need to be funded, not have working hours cut in the name of austerity.
Jolla Sailfish OS. Can buy a phone from them preinstalled, or flash certain Sony Xperia devices with the OS. Runs smooth as butter and has 2+ day long battery life according to owners. Its based on the old MeeGo project from Nokia back in the day and is based on Debian.
If you want something more Linux-like then the FLX1 is it. It runs very close to stock Debian Stable with Posh as the UI, but it runs some Android code underneath for device drivers, so its not a "pure" Linux system, but it's a very good experience and still not controlled by Google.
I wouldnt recommend Fairphone if you want to do Linux stuff with it, it's a perfect AOSP or LineageOS device though.
The point of the law isn't for it to be enforced fairly, it will be selectively enforced to purge dissenting voices on issues like Israel's genocide in Gaza (which Carney still supports, despite the performative recognition in the UN), much like how the UK has made supporting Palestine a terrorism offense.
Fuck 'em. If they're really against committing genocide then follow in Aaron Bushnell's footsteps. Otherwise, good riddance.
This is ahistorical, while the Soviet Union wasn't at war with Japan until the late stages they provided critical support to the Chinese Communists and Nationalists who had been fighting the Japanese since 1937 and forced the creation of the Second Unified Front against Japan (the Nationalist-Communist coalition that eventually drove Japan out of China). The Nationalists were so against uniting with those dirty Commies against Japan that Chiang had to be physically kidnapped and kept on house arrest until he would agree to form the Second Front!
There's a lot you can criticize the Soviet Union for, but their fight against fascism during the first half of the 20th century was not one of them.
/e/os can be installed on devices that can be purchased on the secondhand market for under $100. This is the opposite of "privacy only for the rich".
We lifted all the tariffs on the US as a "gesture of goodwill" to Big Daddy Trump and yet keep these stupid tariffs on China that are crushing our lumber and agriculture industries into dust out west, in order to protect some token auto industry jobs building gas-guzzling American cars. Feels like we're already the 51st state and Trump is just going to make it official.
I'm wondering how this will affect Linux support. Steam client on Linux depends on very old 32-bit libs from Ubuntu 12.04 (!) and is a major reason for distros keeping their 32bit support

What does the text on that beautiful Strawberry Elephant creature say? Looks like it's in Farsi
