And I became obsessed with history. I pored over the works of Marcus Garvey, Chancellor Williams and J.A. Rogers. I read about the American, French and Iranian revolutions and the U.S. Civil Rights Movement. When I read about the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama — and how many of the students protesting the bombing were jailed — I immediately connected that to the Tiananmen Square protests in China.

Of course. Everything else is great though, the autobiography of Malcolm X is great to radicalize someone.

Maybe its just ideological camoflauge. Find gaping hole in American society and then say it would be worse in ‘designated enemy’ to avoid getting boeing’d. Expose silicon valley and US intervention but then say the solution is to vote for Biden so the feds leave you alone.

Or they have really shitty politics. Most likely they have shitty politics.

Better to expose these assholes now before they harm the Nix community even further.

I’ve submitted patches to Guix and they are much nicer. Most likely due to it being a vastly smaller project and a tight knit community.

Also helps that Guix uses entirely free tooling and only distributes free software.

Dirty Tesla

I fantasize about living in China and I’m not even Chinese or have any real intention of studying mandarin (though that’s kinda like, most hexbears from my pov). My family came from Bangladesh to the states so they built up a really nice nest egg here after over 20 years while I have no real fond memories or intention of even visiting Bangladesh (reactionary corrupt Awami League gov’t, climate change flooding, pollution etc).

If I were you, I’d leave and not look back. Burgerland is bullshit.

It’s really sad, no one should be forced to make this decision, unequal exchange is a bitch.

I’ll just do that, no need to just stress myself out all the time.

Just fixed it, thank you for mentioning this.

I just love it when Vaxry’s gotcha moment is when he accepts a merge request from a trans contributor to prove he’s not transphobic, never questioning why a trans person in his community would feel unsafe doing so.

All the comments saying he’s a little bitty baby and he doesn’t know any better can go to the

Vaxry pulling up a trans person social media page on his blog to complain about her transness while also being put on blast for transphobia to subsequently being banned

I don’t even mind the people who agree with Vaxry (because they are all transphobic neckbeard shitheads who have never talked to a trans person in real life) but the liberals who play the civility game and say that the trans person and the crypto-fash antisocial creep are both bad because one of them used their company email.

terminally online ones who put their self worth in terms of the number of commits they put out each day. Vaxry somehow hates socializing with people but also craves all the attention he receives for working on Hyprland.

Both Debian and Ubuntu come with nonfree firmware blobs by default. Nonfree drivers such as the Nvidia proprietary driver can be installed graphically in Ubuntu if you open the drivers app.

Debian instructions are here and involves adding the non-free contrib repos to your /etc/apt/sources.list and then installing the nvidia-driver package

hyprland

A wayland compositor and tiling window manager. The lead developer of the project is a Polish transphobic workaholic.

why do ppl use the CLI for things like making and moving files? i find the GUI easier and faster as well as less prone to mistakes

If you understand how shell scripting works you can easily automate menial tasks. CLI is also an interface shared by all operating systems so if you know how to work around in a shell you’re not bound to any particular workflow/desktop GUI. Keep using GUIs though, they exist for a reason.

what is wayland and xorg, and why does everyone argue about them

Both are display protocols that are in charge of displaying graphics to your screen. Xorg is over 30 years old while wayland is only about 15 years old. The polemic about xorg was that the codebase was unmanageable and the design architecture of the program was inherently flawed (example: screenlocker getting access to your entire screen including apps and desktop, making writing malware for x11 a 3 line python script). X11 was designed during a time when people were using actual real life terminals and mainframes. Wayland is much more modern and akin to how modern graphics APIs are handled (for the most part)

Wayland at its core has and always will be design by committee so a lot of the arguing is necessary (though sometimes long-winded) to make sure to not repeat xorg’s mistakes. Protocols take months if not years to be merged into wayland and those protocols have to be implemented by wayland compositors themselves rather than sharing 1 program altogether like with xorg.

Watch this video for more information, explains it much better and is from an actual wayland board member.

matrix math acceleration hardware?

Can’t speak on that but if you want to get news about recent kernel developments (as well as hardware development) you should check out Phoronix.

I’ve had the misfortune of compiling hyprland and then running it only to be jumpscared by uwu anime girl mascot while my friend was watching after I had told them how cool Linux was.

Code of Conduct stays winning.

By the way I’m infinitely grateful for hexbear being such a great site to be trans in. Every single other thread about this topic has some chud whining about muh free speech and making up conspiracies.

Welcome, hope u enjoy ur stay.

Eclipse was nice, i live in a segregated white neighborhood as a brown person so i avoid my neighbors as much as i can but it was nice to share that moment together as a whole group.
