yes that is exactly my thoughts on it was almost painful watching anything Curiosity, and yeah Second Thought can hopefully pull others towards him if he carries a lot of the Nebula views, and Big Joel is just a sweet man, it’s impossible to hate on him.
Honestly everything on CuriosityStream is hot shit, but hilarious. They have a documentary about “Anarchy” and it’s all about ancaps lol. The Nebula stuff is nice for the few, I like supporting that platform, I think it’s a good idea. I’d hope one day there could be a like a content creators union that would have control of a platform, that’d be nice.
Watching how people process world events is surreal having a more complete context.
I’m applying for a doctorate in system science so I guess I’m pretty well read. I recommend audio books 100%
That’s fair enough, but anytime you get that itch, you should look around. See if emulation has become more viable for Ableton, I did a quick lookup on YouTube and found a guy who got his running low latency through wine. Or if you can mess with any open source alternatives that might be a replacement.
You want old? I remember when I was able to get WoW running on Ubuntu in like 2007 or 2008ish. I felt like a god. Never have I wielded such power. No orgasm left me so satisfied.
Oh, no there’s tons of valid reasons to be on computers and consider yourself a moderate user, but from my experience most young people now that spend some time on computers game some, and Linux just didnt facilitate that in a friendly way until recently. So that one thing had kept the last vestige of household windows use.
Oh God no, do not install arch. I just mean arch based distros like Garuda and Endeavor. The reason I say that is valve actually moved their package management to pacman from apt or whatever it was before. So steam works better natively as long as the base is Arch. Luckily Endeavor and Garuda have install wizards similar to window installations.
Honestly, I monitor major internetworking infrastructure so I am pretty nolife on PC, so I have no frame of reference if you think I’m being generous or insulting.
Look up qutebox or awesome wm, window managers are the new desktop. The future is now.
I would say 2022 is the year moderate PC users could justifiably become Linux users. After recently switching and working with steam and vulkan, I can play basically everything fine. Doom, Cyberpunk, heck I can even play Age of Empires 3 and I couldn’t tell any performance difference. With windows 11 literally shoving adspace into your start menu, I recommend everyone switching. If new to Linux I recommend Arch based systems for gaming, Garuda and Endeavor OS are fantastic and very much designed with gamers coming to Linux in mind.
I’m sorry I do not understand the first part of your sentence.
Ever since I learned about Cybersyn and Cybernetics I’ve been obsessed. Don’t be jealous, it’s interdisciplinary. It is only usually used by engineers until recently because it’s the basis of building a homeostatically sustained system like an engine, or efficient factory line. In the case of political science it’s the study creating smooth functioning autonomous organizations, or patterns of governments to determine choices and find ways to stop them from always somehow choosing the shittest decision because of unforseen consequences or “externalities”.
Check out this playlist, I would love everyone to be inspired to become cyberneticists through the gift of Socialist Santa: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLODSFS9KTPB6VC2i55oVHOVoxGijF4iw-
Oh no comrade. You misunderstand, I agree with you 100%. I do not want to go, but there is value in it even if you don’t see it. Upon graduating I’d be an officer with special access to opportunities, networks, leadership training, organizational management etc. I don’t want to go, and everyone here including you have reassured my decision to not take it. I’m studying systems theory, options are limitless, it’s a new field of study and almost no one outside of commies and computer scientists have ever worked with these ideas until recently. So all I have is opportunity.
There are parts of me that really want to. Guns are fun, I’m sure learning theory of war, strategy and tactical theory would all be pretty fucking awesome. Unfortunately I think it requires my active enlistment as an officer after graduation. Also I don’t think I could help but ruthlessly bully the children of rich people until suspension.
Oh yeah, I have lots of options. Systems Science has become increasingly important study as the world starts to need analysis of incredibly complex interdisciplinary systems. In fact the one place that I really want to go to is the Portland State program. I’m hoping the housing market crashes and I can buy a condo near campus for pennies. I’ve been a fortunate prole as I am going back to school in my late 20s early 30s while having a trade skill that allows for full time work on weekends to compensate.
Compelling. Convinced. Thanks lol
I’m glad I asked, had the same conflicts in mind when writing this post. I can’t have the excuse of lack of theory, and I definitely couldnt keep my head down unsuspiciously for 3 years. Only can assume Westpoint has methods of either breaking ideological opposition or I’d just get kicked out and have to apply somewhere else.
Crypto is literally a ponzi scheme and will implode on itself, it’s weird having to tell this to people who call themselves communists. It’s literally just a new stock in how much can I tax the power grid and sell back the difference. You can make a shit load of money, but it is only really valuable especially with alt coin when you have enough capital to swing prices slightly enough to cause a spike then sell.
