If Linux Foundation continues to comply with unjust and dangerous laws, I imagine europe will just establish their own fork foundation, rather than ditching linux.

That would be a schism to behold

I have a split 40% because I type for a living and normie keyboards destroy my wrists.

I DMed a lot of shadowrun, and I really do love both of them equally. RP makes the world fun and meaningful, while combat gives it physicality, makes it real.

I miss it, if only I could afford to spend 10 hours on prep every week :<

So I heard a bunch of sexist shit (about men and women simultaneously which is very impressive) that aligns perfectly with my biases, but I wasn't aware it's ok to say out loud? Chat is this real?

The real brain melter was the societal culture shift.

I grew up witnessing "the end of history" with my own eyes. People were getting wiser and kinder year after year, decade after decade. It was like a feedback loop of positive changes, the only way was up.

Then 2010s hit and I'm still processing the 180 degrees shift. I read dozens of books about nazis, authoritarianism, societal memory, cults, fucking roman empire. But I still have cognitive dissonance every time I open news feed.

If you pretend for a second this is a HoI4-like historical simulation, it'd be really interesting to see what the american dictatorship is going be like. Are we talking populist murder-happy forever-revolution? Shut-the-fuck-up-or-else secret police state? A digital surveillance state with never seen before levels of control? The suspense!

Alas, we live on this planet. Bummer.

Im in my 30s and often wonder, has the world always been this infuriating? Were we going apeshit watching representatives openly steal our future in 2005? 1995?

Were dudes in 1955 Paris tearing their hair our how the president's third cousin is getting a contract to rebuild the entire railway system on the merit of fuck all?

The republic is so unbelievably done.

Next mid terms the right will sweep the elections with Belarus-levels of fraud, in 4 years there'll be an amendment to officiate the thousand-years reich.

In 10 years -- world war 3.

If you take him at face value, he's a:

  1. developer -- no way a PM can deal with AI code directly

  2. senior/mid level -- since he was a team lead at some point

  3. reviews and revises AI code all day

Leave him alone, the man is already in a hell of his own creation

Enough of the "they go low we go high" bs, you can't defeat fascism with civility.
