  • Also most projects that promote not using systemd are weird ideologues at this point.

    I guess literally anyone who knows it's a bloated idiosyncratic pile of garbage which introduces unnecessary attack surface. Guessing you've never used any of the alternate modern init systems.

    I maintain all kinds of crap, some systemd, some non-systemd, some straight up busybox. Systemd is not easier to use for almost any of my use cases. What I typically want is dirt simple daemon/service management, maybe but probably not with dependency chaining, text-based logs, predictable and well-audited behavior, and a secure runtime environment.

  • There's really no excuse, proper project management would have replaced the UI and verified the new version included all the old functionality, organized well together with whatever new functionality they added. I think they were trying to keep old hats happy with the changes by letting them keep their old version, but it's better to just rip the band-aid off if you're gonna change it, now it's a mess for everyone.

  • Read something interesting earlier on Folke Bernadotte's Wiki. Where is it...

    In April 1945, Heinrich Himmler asked Bernadotte to convey a peace proposal to Prime Minister Winston Churchill and President Harry S. Truman without the knowledge of Adolf Hitler. The main point of the proposal was that Germany would surrender only to the Western Allies (the United Kingdom and the United States), but would be allowed to continue resisting the Soviet Union.

  • Not "recently" that's for sure. More like "what you're just going to walk in here after you what did last time?"

  • Canada abstains from speaking up against or for colonialism

  • It is a colonialist state after all. In the sense of "westward" settler colonialism rather than imperial colonialism (though it participates in that too).

  • What is your opinion on Libertarianism?

    Jump

  • American "libertarianism" is a correct identification of the issue with oppressive use of force by the state, coupled with a somewhere-between-ambiguous-and-incorrect interpretation of when force is oppressive and when it's not. It's my stance that American libertarianism (based on the NAP definition) with a properly calculated ethical interpretation of justifiable "property" simply reduces to anarchocommunism, as many unexamined assumptions about when a "property" claim is justifiable and when it is not simply accept a capitalist market economy, and any inequality that may result, out of sheer laziness. A lot of people find this way of looking at it jarring, usually because they just try to cram it somewhere on the "left/right" scale without really examining each ideological underpinning, or by really examining the range of thinking within the space. And some of that results from fascist groups trying to coopt the label as well. Good litmus test for that is asking a self-identified "libertarian" what they think about immigration, or the justifiability of a given war. The "MAGA LINO" types will justify immigration crackdowns and wars, the dyed-in-the-wool "libertarians" will oppose them, and so on with other oppressive policies that leftists also oppose. Which leaves the main point of contention being how the economic system works and how property distribution works, something which the "NAP" is ambiguous about. Therefore...

  • There's some 0.0001% theoretical possibility that a billionaire could be a non-sociopath. If they literally dedicated their life to extracting money from the wider economy or top crust, not spending any of it on themselves or their descendants, but instead solely redistributing to the most needing people in the world. Monetary wealth at the end of the day is just economic control - it doesn't become evil until it's actually used for your own benefit, i.e., the economy is being rewired for you to live in luxury.

    Assuming of course (big fat assumption) that you don't screw people over to get it in the first place - and, even if you are giving it all away, it's questionable why you'd end up with a surplus of money that large, if your goal is to donate it, why would the rate coming in exceed the rate going out, unless the goal was to purchase some institution or something, i.e., purchase Walmart and turn it into a cooperative. Probably not to invest the money to grow it to have more to give, because the return on investment for the money also has to come from somewhere, i.e., has its own ethical ramifications.

    But I mean, name a single person in the last century who fit that profile. I can't name one. So. And at the end of the day the best situation for the society isn't to have single people controlling things and hoping they use their power responsibly, it's to democratize that power and have everyone use it responsibly.

  • Why do some people try to humanize the wealthy and people in positions of power?

  • It's nearly universally learned behavior, and it's just a metric of people's disposition to act selfishly or malevolently versus selflessly and benevolently.

  • If they would do evil given the chance, that makes them evil. It's like a poorly forged piece of metal with a crack built in, that holds together until put to the test. The crack was always there.

    There's more angles to it of course - mistakes, temporary dispositions, the average of all behavior, etc.
