On a TV series, a cowboy libertarian explains his being libertarian to a rich evil lady. She smiles and exclaims “you are all a bunch of toddlers! Wanting to suckle on other peoples tits and being treated as adults, while having none of the responsibility of being one”.
I’ve known a bunch of them and I think their ideology is fine on the surface, but full of small contraddictions, for example:
That’s my experience with a few tens of people, so I don’t know if that’s representative of the whole community, bu my own little consipracy theory is that libertarianism as I know it was crafted by the US alt-right to subtly manipulate people into fascism, the premises are all there: hatred for the current state, bigotry, extreme victimism, a willingness to strip down thenselves of hard-fought rights and a hustle/grinding mentality to slave yourself down to work and enrich other people
That looks like VRAM corruption, though it’s unlikely that the only ram corruption occurs in the video ram and only when the BIOS settings are on, but maybe the issue lies in the graphics adapter in that specific video mode.
Does this happen only when entering the BIOS settings? What about during POST (when the motherboard logo is on screen) or after post when the OS is loading before the graphics driver is loaded?
• host my own opem-source software to stay independent from big tech and save my privacy (also it’s a lot of fun) • not let anyone tell me how to live my own life. You think smart working is lazy? I’m not woring for you. You think I’m weird because I don’t conform to your ideas? Don’t care. I know my worth and respect myself • learn, learn and learn new stuff. It’s nice and convenient (and usually cheaper) to have people do stuff for you, but for the most important things, it’s important that you can do them yourself, if there’s an emergency • looking forward to be self-employed. This is still a work in progress…
Freenom isn’t operating anymore and all free .ml domains are deactivated. I always wondered if the where able to keep the lemmy.ml domain because it was premium
I think this applies to everything. The “geniuses” we praise (Einstein, Newton, Galileo) are not superhumans with access to secret knowledge that only their mind could unlock, they are just very clever and astute individual that studied a lot and figured out things by applying a mix of logic and intuition to information that everybody already had.
If they didn’t exist, someone else would have (likely) eventually come to the same conclusions. Heck maybe someone did years earlier but never told anybody.
Calculus methods was independently discovered by Leibnitz and Newton at around the same time, that’s why we have different notations for the same thing.
Maybe I’m reading wrong, but your comment seems to imply that Tian’anmen Square was mainstream media lies?
I don’t want any “smart” crap in my house, I don’t want my appliances to be connected to the internet and to be controlled by an app, it should all be self sufficient.
And if you really want to add the option to be controlled remotely (but should not be the only way) make it a local connection, why should my phone connect to the internet to turn on an AC located three meters away?
Man, you know why you’re getting downvoted so much? Your comments fall of as EXTREMELY egocentric.
It’s like right-wing people are going around imitating me to confuse people or something.
On the internet, you are not special, just one of the many billions of usernames around. It’s not that right wingers are imitating you, the problem is that so often someone will make a post like yours saying “I get banned so often, this place is impossible”, and when people ask what they did to get banned, they’ll receive some vague bullshit answers like “for saying the truth” or “for any word I speak”, then you see their history and they say the most hateful, racist or mysoginist thing you can think of and they’ll act as the most persecuted of victims. It appears you are doing the same, even if that’s not your intention.
I don’t want to be associated with a place that says “fill out an application and wait to be approved.”
You are on the internet man, if people don’t do that, spam happens and instances get flooded with bots trolling everything until they shut down. If you don’t want to “be approved” you won’t have an account anywhere. Deal with it.
I’m not trying to insult you, just trying to help you, because it looks like you are slightly oblivious to how you present yourself.
Sundried and then put in oil
If you only don’t like the gooey and seedy texture, try dry tomatoes in oil: they get rid of the seeds, of all the liquid part, and become a little harder, but they are stronger in taste.
Your country is going to elections and a leaked video of one of the candidates happears on social media that shows them raping a child or whatever einous stuff.
Would you like to know if that’s a real video or a foreign country is trying to manipulate your elections to favour an emerging pseudo dictator that will sell your people to someone else? I would like to.
We are not talking about ai memes or trolls, virtually everybody get news and is influenced by stuff found on the internet. Knowing what is real and what isn’t is fundamental to your functioning as a person.
Maybe not perfect upon conception, but after a couple of decades from common adoption, the bicycle really didn’t change much. Sure, you can use lighter and more advanced materials, you can add an electric motor to it (though I wouldn’t classify it as a bycicle) but you can probably take a 100 years old bike and it would work just as good as a modern one.
Engineering CADs and old peripherals with proprietary drivers for me. This cannot be always solved with a VM because either they are graphically intensive or hardware passthrough just doesn’t work for them.
There’s one specific case of Texas Instruments’ software suite for microcontrollers: they have all the tools, the IDE and SDKs available for windows/mac/linux, EXCEPT one stupid old sdk I needed that was ONLY available on Windows for some reason, so I had to use it just for that stupid piece of drivers.
For games I either do games that work on proton, or for extreme cased I have a VM with second GPU in passthrough, and that works quite qell, but cannot do on a work laptop.
Relaxed? What is the meaning of this word? My emotion is a booleam variable that is either depressed or agitated, nothing in between
Don’t answer the question, ask them for specific examples on why they think you are being unmotovated or unfriendly, don’t be aggressive, just pretend you simply don’t understand. They’ll tell you some bullshit and you can tell it’s a misunderstanding. Keep a polite and friendly tone.
Drug addiction is a real nasty bitch. Congrats!
in richer countries sanitary conditions of food and water means there’s less risk of parasitic infection
if there’s no symptom, you probablu don’t have a parasitic infection. Remember that billions of bacteria and other microorganisms live in your body in a symbiotic relationship, that’s totally normal and without the you would die
For the love of God, please don’t take any medicine without your doctor telling you to do so. Esoecially any “purification”, " cleansing" or “detox” substance some randos on the internet tell you it’s good for you. Those are people with no medicanl knowledge at best or scammers at worst
C is full of complex paradigms and low level details that are great if you’re learning computer architectures, but pretty bad if it’s your first languages.
Python in the other hand is great to learn programming practices and for quick, non-optimized, easy scripts. I think it’s less suited for more complex projects, but that’s another thing. I honestly fon’t think it’s a great language, but it’s easy to use and has pretty much a library for everything, that’s why I think it’s good to start and for simple things.
Java is also quite high level, so also good for beginners, but I’ve never used it so I don’t know how easy is to setup (python is) and how easy it is to download dependencies (on python it is).
For your case I would say Python is best.
