Absolutely.

We never learn from history, do we?

One could say he has been and more, given the state of things. Just a tariff/tax would be bad, but he’s hunting citizens.

At this point any pee-involving evidence is minor compared to the rest.

The GOP and now MAGA left conservatism behind long ago. And it’s not like conservatism itself is bad when applied in places that need less change to work. One can even be liberal, radical, and conservative, just on different topics.

This is a cult. Period.

It also means the OS is in total control of the things it’s running. This goes for running programs, shutting down, and crashing. The only crashes I have on my Linux are when I use up memory, and I’m still convinced that even though everything looks seized up, if I left it for hours or days it would probably end up resolving itself. I’ve had some cases where the OS saw the program wasn’t going in a good direction fast enough and killed it.

Blame Microsoft sure, but where this ignorance of LLMs’ faults keeps coming from is baffling. Either the CTO and CIO and the rest of the IT departments are idiots, or someone is grabbing their bonuses while they can before things break.

Good analogy by using cars. You can test drive a car. Since a lot (all?) distros have a way to run off a USB, so you can get the general “feel” of it. Then you can go from there. Or if you have room to work with, setting up dual boot isn’t that hard (outside of how Windows acts sometimes about it). Asking a lot of people what flavor ice cream they prefer isn’t going to help you decide your own.

This is good parenting. You can’t always be there to guide them or restrict them, nor should you want to be. You instead help them understand how to navigate the world themselves smartly. This is true for anything, not just what they see on the internet.

My C-64 still boots up instantly, just as it did on day one. Far faster than Windows could ever dream.

The book that came with the C-64 was a good primer for first-time computer users, but I ended up needing more and bought the “Commodore 64 Programmer’s Reference Guide,” which was far more useful, and then “Mapping the Commodore 64” and “Machine Language for Beginners.”

Yes, I still have them. You never know… :D

Art of the kill

But still, the future is better. I could live die with that.

Thanks for clarifying what your definition is. Pretty much includes any form of government throughout history. Is this an anarchist’s pov?

If you’re going to try to narrow the definition that way, then most countries are fascists. Why don’t you visit the Wikipedia page on fascism and help them simplify what they classify as a very complex definition.

Which would make it far worse. Lower than WWII Nazis.

America wasn’t fascist then. I don’t think it is now (yet), but the leadership in power sure is.

Copying an old Waterfox logo. They really are going downhill.

CEO proves that CEOs can be replaced by AI.

Punching a nazi in the crowded streets so much better than in the alley. Tell them we don’t want them here, period.

“This is cyberterrorism.” Letting those sites do their thing without cracking down on them… I agree.
