that’s an ergonomic nightmare. the keyboard is too high and the screen is too low. if you use that for more than a couple minutes at a time your shoulders will hate you.

i’ve only been playing factorio lately. this is my current seablock map. trying to get the train based city blocks going. i’ve got basic resources going and about to start science blocks.

this is only barely a story. i have very little confidence in western news reporting on anonymous sources out of china. i am very willing to believe that this official is getting removed because of the backlash to this, as china does have a reputation for having actual consequences to fucking up their economy, but anything beyond “we aren’t going to do the regulations exactly like that” is completely unfounded speculation

iirc, she was caught up with one of the US backed LGBT orgs that were somewhere between anti-communist influence campaigns and outright spying

yeah, it’s where the tech bourgeoisie and their bootlickers congregate, with all of their attendant racism and US cheerleading. it’s one of the main injectors of capitalist propaganda into the tech space these days.

monads.online and octodon.social are also not precisely ML, but they are broadly compatible

The bourgeois was anarchic before his class seized political power and imposed on society the ideal State regime suitable to safeguard the capitalist mode of production

definitely going to use this in future convos

leaving aside for a moment whether the state is actually a specific form of political organization, i don’t know where you are that you are finding anarchists that are specifically and only against that. every single one i have talked to in my years of left leaning organizing have been against the state as a particularly bad example of some overarching principle, such as authority or hierarchy.

anarchism is a committed opposition to a specific form of political organization

which one?

i’m most of the way through Zelda: TotK, which has been quite enjoyable so far, but it’s on the back burner now so i can focus on Satisfactory. I really want to get a train network set up in that, but it will be a little while yet before i have that unlocked.

there’s not a whole lot separating most anti-civ anarchists from ecofascists besides better rhetorical slight of hand.
