NVIDIA is already paying podcasters and YT channels to cover Isaac and Jetson, so I guess the shovel seller is already seeing itself out.

I lately got to gauge my “market value”, having understood that, in the natural equilibrium of giving and taking, I had definitely been selling myself short.

I decided to cut down on my participation to all kinds of events and initiatives that would have me as an active element and even some in which I perceived to be a passive one, turning out I was often wrong about it.

In some circles, silence will be the outcome, and you can then start to drop in consciously until equilibrium is reestablished. In others, people will surprisingly cry out for your participation, voice, insight or whatever else you brought to the table.

The absolute plus is having a lot of time (and often money follows) freed up, which you can use to invest in yourself, which in turn brings up your value in other’s eyes (I am dieting with the help of a professional right now).

I don’t know if this is really not visible from within, but this has always been the essence of American Life in my eyes since I became socially aware at the end of the 90s, when I was also spending my summers in the US.

Sure, now the wallpaper pattern is covering the sofa and the chains, and it is a punch in your eyes, but the room has always been surrounded in just that.

Tuta does.

Israel should go back to sound as the bad idea it is.

Italy’s songs are such shit with the exception of Måneskin, that I don’t think anyone would miss us.

I want to know what France does.

They should really say that they will pull out of the show if israel and the zionists are allowed to sponsor the show through Moroccanoil and Estee Lauder.

THAT would hurt.

Proper action on the day in which we all remember the assassination of Salvador Allende at the hands of the CIA.

I did the same and using Windows at work is slowly becoming unbearable.

Moroccanoil pays for the show since many years, and it is an Israeli company. MAC Cosmetics is another main sponsor too and it is owned by Estee Lauder whose founder is the President of the World Jewish Congress and an extremist zionist.

Everyone should boycott it even Israel does not participate.

At the very least we should be organizing “very loud” protests in all the major EU cities on the finals.

All involved sponsors are or should be added to BDS lists.

I love Batman (currently replaying the Rocksteady games for the 3rd time) and I grew up with him and cannot really relate to Superman since I am not a farm boy. But it is very easy to see how Batman is in fact a fascist-capitalist fantasy.

A rich man who takes things in his own hands on a whim, infiltrating public order tech, hoarding personal data on virtually everyone in Gotham (at least) if not resorting to real-time surveillance by infiltrating personal devices (in The Dark Knight).

The idea that he “does good” by deciding a subset of all possible activities on which to spend his money and never spends himself on releasing that decision power to the public is exactly what brought the US where they are and what they hate viscerally about the EU (even if the sliding is real here as well).

That is what I copied my approach from. Didn’t work. See post update.

Still got the same error.

Look at the update.

Those are the threads I went through before writing the post and from where I took the symlink idea.

What do you mean by EV libraries?

In the meanwhile, I have installed the flac ones and nothing changed.

That is actually good news. Means that people more likely to be “normies” are adopting an alternative solution.

And it still wants your sandwich

Except for GOG. Way to go Poland!

What would it take for Canada and EU to close their borders?
