Completely agree, comrade. Religion is only a vector of attack to the socialist state, therefore It’s in the interest of the working class to have a firm grip on it and eventually get rid of it. I can’t see a world where socialism/communism and religion can peacefully co-exist.

Non-American here. No. I didn’t even know school shootings are a thing until I learned about the Empire. When I was in school all we did was fire drills.

Isn’t that the case with TES as well?

Depends on what TES you’re talking about. In Morrowind most people are neutral towards the player and you have to gain their trust or bribe them if you want something from them. Some just hate the player for various reasons and some NPCs are just straight up racist/spiecist. Some refuse to talk to you if you have contraband in your inventory (like skooma or moon sugar). I don’t know about the other games but I’ve heard that the “universally liked player” thing started with Skyrim.

This isn’t limited to JS. Too many times have I seen someone ask a question of how to do XYZ in language ABC where most of the replies were some form of “Just use this library bro” while not actually answering the question. And usually the library that’s being suggested is some big monolith that implements a ton of shit that no one really uses.

I’m at a point where any computer (including smart devices) that doesn’t run a GNU/Linux or BSD derivative where I, the user, have full control over is completely useless to me. Proprietary OSs are so limiting, they’re like a plastic toy hammer for kids in comparison to GNU/Linux, which is like a real metal hammer.

This and the Barbara Streisand effect as other instances are making threads and creating drama about us, which will lead people to look us up out of curiosity

Literally how I found GenZedong. I used to browse latestagecapitalism and antiwork on reddit and kept seeing people shitting on “those authoritarian tankies over at GenZedong” which made me look it up out of curiosity. I think this is a net positive. Many people already have the right mindset but just need a lead to follow. And some may find their lead here.

Personally I’m not bothered by people/bots/feds coming here to downvote us. On reddit downvotes are terrible because not only does “the algorithm” take the voting scores into account and tends to “hide” posts with a low score, but if your user’s score is too low you’re unable to post and comment in some subs. But on lemmy none of these things are true. Lemmy doesn’t even keep track of a user’s total voting score.

From my so far limited experience of playing around with it for 30 minutes in a QEMU KVM, it does use the apt package manager but a quick look at /etc/apt/sources.list tells that they use their own repositories. Looking through the repositories of what they have to offer it seems that they aren’t just mirrors from another distro but actually maintain their own packages and port some Ubuntu packages. A look through their Kernel Config zcat /proc/config.gz tells that they compile their own custom Kernel as well. Also it doesn’t use snap at all, but they do offer it in their repositories. And for some reason there is dockerd/containerd pre-installed and pre-configured on the base System. My guess would be that they use docker for the Mobile apps, but I can’t verify this right now since every time I try to install a Mobile app from the Software Store it tells me that I can’t run a VM inside a VM. And unfortunately I don’t have some spare Hardware to test at hand atm.

To answer your question; It seems like an independent distro utilizing the apt package manager and porting some Ubuntu packages. But I can’t say for sure, since all of the documentation on their git repositories is written in mandarin.

Is there a Tor friendly version of archive.ph?

Is there a specific date of when they will federate with us that I’m not aware of? Because I don’t see anything other than “soon™”.

Also there are a lot of people in that thread who don’t seem to understand what lemmy/federation even is or how it works. Despite how worrisome some of their users and rules can be (CW on meat and milk products? That has to be ironic, right?) I’ll still welcome all Hexbears if they follow the rules. I look forward to the day where our communities can finally interact with each other

It claims to support the VisionFive2 SBC/JH7110 SoC which is made by StarFive.

I just copied the title from CGTN minus the text in the parenthesis.

Still won’t make me abandond my Stalinist Stallmanist lifestylism

Same.

If bourgeois democracy is used as a tool by the party to reach and educate the working masses and grow the party then I can agree with that. What I originally meant was a marxist party obeying by bourgeois rules, to the point where the main focus becomes electoralism and everything else gets pushed to the side, loosing sight of its original goals and loosing the revolutionary spirit. Essentially taming the party and putting a leash on it, if that makes sense.

• No focusing on electoralism and bourgeois democracy. If a party that calls itself “marxist” tells people to vote that’s a huge red flag.

• Anti-Imperialism and Anti-Capitalism are an absolute must. If a “marxist” party doesn’t recognize that capital is our common enemy and must be destroyed then they’re a lost cause.

• Revolutionary. A marxist party has to recognize that socialism can only be achieved via overthrowing the capitalist ruling class and implementing a dictatorship of the proletariat.

• No Anti-AES propaganda (examples: siding with the Anti-China narrative on Xinjiang or Africa, saying the DPRK is a monarchy where people have no “freedoms”, etc.). A marxist party should recognize AES countries for what they are, as any marxist should.

• No Imperialist/CIA propaganda (examples: Putin is richest man and has a mansion the size of a village, Putin suddenly invaded a peaceful nation for no reason, Stalin was a gruesome tyrant/dictator who caused a famine, Lenin was a mass murderer, etc. )

I fully expected site wide vandalism that would take the admins some time to revert. But this is just cringey teenager-tier shit. 0/10 troll.

Hey wenger, if you happen to read this have you seen the fan art someone made of you? If yes, is it accurate?

So with, rust/Redox, does that use a different language for the terminal than other distros?

It means that the RedoxOS system is written in Rust (Kernel, Drivers, Userspace, etc.). Redox itself is still just a POSIX compatible UNIX-like System similar to Linux. Which means you can run things like Bash on Redox just like on Linux. But unlike Linux or BSD, both of which are Monolithic, Redox follows a Micro-kernel design. For the average user this doesn’t mean much really. But I wouldn’t use RedoxOS as it is right now since it’s still in its early stages of development. It runs on a limited set of hardware and is still pretty rough around the edges.

If you just want an OS to use for things like web browsing, programming or writing documents then any up-to-date Linux distro will be your best bet. They all use the same software, with some minor exceptions. The difference is in the design.

Not too long ago I was in an argument with some lib on Matrix (who btw. claimed to be a ML despite the fact that they’ve never read a single line of Marx or Lenin) and they were calling me brainwashed because I support AES countries. I asked them “If I can’t trust anything China says, then what CAN I trust?” and they replied “You need to look for defectors and listen what they have to say.”. When I told them that all the US Media is controlled by the state which acts in the interest of the ruling class, they started calling me crazy. Because according to them the U.S. Media doesn’t spread that much propaganda and mostly report on “independent” truths.

Diagnosis? China bad syndrome.

Their profile is only a few hours old and they have only 2 posts both of which are basically identical. Also the way they reply gives me the impression that they’ve already made up their mind. Seems sus.
