  • You can separate capitalism from fascism as one side of the coin with the other. Capitalism invented fascism to defend it when the nation/state couldn’t anymore, against labor and unionism of late 19th century. From paid thugs shooting strikers to off duty cops carrying assassinations, torture and terrorism, to the evolution of a pseudo-ideology to take over Germany and attack the Soviet-Union, which in their eyes was the source of the problems western industrialists faced. Fascism grows from inside the very nature of capitalism and it is inseparable.




  • Gradually this entire society is going to be pushed towards a civil war where male wasps will win and blame the war on everyone else. Already Trump has empowered the militant right and winked an eye to do attrocities in the form of paramilitary reaction against people mobilizing to strike, protest, organize.

    This whole scenario is the US managing its defeat in Ukraine where the entire NATO went against Russia and lost, on one side, on the other side it will politically shift blame for the declining and collapsing $/oil economy that is imploding mainly due to its declining industrial and raw material base.

    Industrial capital leading a banking federation is what capitalism’s core is. The “west” thought through the banking/oil choke hold it can control industrial capital which has now shifted together with the world’s primary raw material sources. So we have a collision course of two capitalist adversaries with the US not willing to accept defeat to avert a large scale war.

    But if nobody can be wise enough to lead and beat some sense into the US/EU/UK elitism material conditions will. And the bubble of living and surviving on the blood and sweat of the rest of humanity without a cost will be violently coming to its end. In US/UK/EU, due to this condition politics range from right-wing pro-capitalism to ultra-right-wing pro-capitalism all against humanity.

    Poor Israel is realising this western ally is collapsing on its own and is taking measures to be able to survive this phase of global war caused by the US/UK/EU


  • There are some really old introductory unix texts of how the system is structured and why, 99% of this stuff is still true for most linux (except some weird experimental alternatives where people tried to create ms-unix ). The basic terminal commands should also be useful, and help you understand. For example open a terminal and see the command for copy (cp) or (mv) or mkdir rm rmdir and use -h for the help of the options of each (if -h doesn’t work then --help does) and then extensive documentation is found by name of command after “man” for manual ex: man chmod

    One of the most magical things that happens in unix is mount, where you create a directory (mount point /mnt), take a device like your usb stick volume named sdb1

    mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt

    ls -lah /mnt

    say you create /tmp/disks and in it a b c d e and mount 5 disks in a through e and it appears as one subdirectory /tmp/disks

    Instead of looking at a file browser and something going cling-clong and appearing as a volume, what dumb people do




  • The difference with a small group of devs writing code and offering it free and corporate thugs treating coders like sponges to produce code is the lack of resources can be understood and forgiven. Take a project like brave-nightly (browser fork of glugle-elechrom) there are 3-5-8 new releases a day, 8-6 Pacific US time, when they go home on Fri. the next release is Monday afternoon, the “free” coders usually begin work Friday night and end Monday at dawn!

    Sure, corp.XYZ sends them an offer one day and buys their work and even offers them incentives to work for them, then it all goes down hill!

    It ends up being as nasty racist and ethnocentric as kernel.org.com - us state dept fed and controlled


  • Don’t take me wrong, I hate Putin just as much as I hate Biden or Trump, don’t misinterpret what I say

    But between hating Trump and discriminating against you because you are from Nebraska is the difference between a racist and a non-racist …
    Something the linux-duo-Fins can not separate, hence their delirium with nationalist rhetoric and lack of historical understanding.









  • I still prefer net-tools and use ifconfig eth0 up That ip mess I’d rather do without, and those funky UU device/interface names I wish them out of my system

    By the way, what system/init/svc manager are you using? With 50y in your back, cron job to check if it is up and resetting it while you are away. You can always remotely cancel the cronjob … but it will be a new mistake not the old one :)

    I started on Irix and ultrix if you remember those, what would I know :)


  • This war was forced into Russia due to the blocking and surrounding it with NATO bases clearly against it, and by trying to block and substitute its primary exports to EU.

    The violent overthrow of the then democratic government in Ukraine, the arming, training, and directing a Neo-Nazi para-military unit to take over, after forcing half the political parties in being illegal, had nothing to do with Russia. If there is someone underinformed, confused, and lacking historical facts it is not me, and better change your arrogant tone if you seriously want to discuss something and not just throw propaganda mud.


  • People are not under sanctions, and no linux developer worked for the Russian government, and since when has a war affected who works on what open source project. There are wars all over the place all the damn time …

    I am not talking about the sanctions, I am talking about the additional remarks on how nationalist and racist both the leaders of the project appeared to be from their statements.
