I want to also add this quote, which I think illustrates my point quite clearly.

Marxism-Leninism holds that each of the two stages in the process of cognition has its own characteristics, with knowledge manifesting itself as perceptual at the lower stage and logical at the higher stage, but that both are stages in an integrated process of cognition. The perceptual and the rational are qualitatively different, but are not divorced from each other; they are unified on the basis of practice. Our practice proves that what is perceived cannot at once be comprehended and that only what is comprehended can be more deeply perceived. Perception only solves the problem of phenomena; theory alone can solve the problem of essence. The solving of both these problems is not separable in the slightest degree from practice. Whoever wants to know a thing has no way of doing so except by coming into contact with it, that is, by living (practicing) in its environment. In feudal society it was impossible to know the laws of capitalist society in advance because capitalism had not yet emerged, the relevant practice was lacking. Marxism could be the product only of capitalist society. Marx, in the era of laissez-faire capitalism, could not concretely know certain laws peculiar to the era of imperialism beforehand, because imperialism, the last stage of capitalism, had not yet emerged and the relevant practice was lacking; only Lenin and Stalin could undertake this task. Leaving aside their genius, the reason why Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin could work out their theories was mainly that they personally took part in the practice of the class struggle and the scientific experimentation of their time; lacking this condition, no genius could have succeeded.

They discovered us, we’re finished.

It all comes down to dialectics and the transition from quantity to quality, basically. There’s no such thing as Maoism or Dengism, simply Marxism Leninism, and that was too what Mao thought, hence why he preferred the term Mao Zedong Thought, which would imply simply, theory written by him. The reason why there is a difference between Marxism and Marxism Leninism is because Lenin effectively changed Marxist theory in a way that modified the quality of the content in a way that it is no longer essentially the same. Lenin focused his ideas in the time were capitalism was adapting to new ways under the disguise of imperialism, and focused on praxis, creating a completely different analysis than that which Marx and Engels had written. On the other hand, all of the thinkers that came after him are simply following his steps and expanding the Marxist Leninist thought but not in a way that radically changes the thought. People who call themselves Maoists, or even worse, Dengists, are nothing but people who failed to understand dialectical materialism and are trapped within a dogmatic crossroads. If you read Mao, and you read Deng, you’ll notice that both of them have policies that are in accordance with each other and when you look at the policies taken by them through the lenses of a 50 year old time lapse in the future, they decisions improved the lives of the working class.

This is a really good text on the subject.

As far as I know that happens because in Linux ctrl+v and middle click pastes are stored in different places and are considered different things, in fact there’s a third way to paste which I don’t remember. But basically the middle click paste is used whenever you select a string, there’s no need to copy it, and the ctrl+v paste works when you do ctrl+c.

So edgy, what a bad boy.

It looks beautiful, Cassidy worked on elementaryOS so he knows a thing or two about good GUI design. I wish that project could get more funding since it’s one of the best looking distros but it simply gets so lagged behind due to slow development.

There’s LemmyBB, look it up on GitHub.

I think cars and capitalism are more hateable than mosquitoes. Although definitely my list goes like: 1. Cars 2. Capitalism 3. Mosquitoes

When they talk about being profitable what they mean is that the CEO needs to be paid some stupid wage like 10.000.000 a month, then being able to cover employees salaries and then costs of hosting and so on, and then, still being able to accumulate at last the double of the money per month so that they can see “growth”. Basically it all comes down allowing a parasite to live for free off the backs of the working class. If CEO or shareholders would earna normal wage, I bet your ass Reddit would be profitable as hell if what you care about is building an awesome tool.

What controversy?

Because its Rust

They probably mean the whole PrivacyTools/PrivacyGuides scandal with the previous former member and all of that. I mean, from what I remember being the story on your side it was the dude who still runs PrivacyTools fault but yeah. Still, nice you made the move, welcome to Lemmy.

Yeah, I do think the government should not allow certain opinions, if they promote hatred, and I say this in a political founded way.

Yeah, free speech is something totally unrelated to politics, how could I’ve been so dumb to think that way.

Probably the priority list in the BIOS has another drive set as the one to boot, find one whixh key to press to go to the bios on your pc, go and find the boot list.

We do, we just don’t don’t share the same sense of humour as with fascists.

Lol, imagine beign the bastard who downvoted.

Here is the archive, the text seems to point that keeping workers at the bare minimum of survival is what keeps them in check and allows for cheap labour.

Hey, that seems like a really awesome project, but do I need to self host basically? I’m not interested in sharing to be honest and I’m a bit dumb to install stuff from binaries. Do you know if it’s too complicated?
