I only stopped using Firefox when an update broke GPU acceleration on my PC. Would be happy to switch back if it gets fixed, but it seems they’re more interested in adding AI slop, which doesn’t bode well for the last bastion of anti-Google monopoly resistance. 🤷

It’s already edible, so long as you don’t intend on living for much longer afterwards.

The message “You broke reddit” is directly blaming the users, as if a server-side issue was caused by someone trying to use the site.

Having a belief system is different from having a religion. Organized religion likely came about out of the need to legitimize power structures (otherwise, why the hell would the populace, which outnumber the ruling class, not fight back against their injustices?)

You are right that the San seem to have a classless (or, as wikipedia describes it, egalitarian) society. So it works as a counter-example to my claim that “nothing predates classes”.

There’s a difference between atheism and anti-theism that a lot of people (both religious and non-religious) seem to miss.

Nothing really predates classes. Classes existed since the first civilizations on Earth. You might be claiming it predates capitalism and that’s definitely true but the ruling/working class divide is much older than capitalism.

Gas leaks:

Well, that’s appalling and I wholly condemn it and it’s my bad for not doing the due diligence of figuring out who was behind the community before posting. It still doesn’t excuse apologizing for authoritarianism on the other side of the aisle.

Tankies are just far-right for the other geopolitical camp. This isn’t the take you think it is. I’d be considered far-left by the libs.

Can they enter a room or home with no specific owner?

I assume the permission you gave them to get them into that scenario to begin with doesn’t get revoked once you die. Or does it? Vsauce theme Does the permission pass to your heirs? Can your child or spouse just show up and evict the vampire using that logic? What if the vampire doesn’t just kill you but turns you?

More important question though we’re all missing here: can vampires even cum? You assumed in your comment that they can maintain bloodflow by using the blood of their victims/consenting partners/wtv. but that logic wouldn’t extend to sperm production. Unless they sucked a ton of cock beforehand and absorbed that as well.

Being alive against my will under late-stage capitalism.

While I agree that the Hyprland community is toxic and led by an open conservative (if not fascist), citing Drew DeVault’s opinion piece is hardly better; he’s known for being a tankie with biases of his own and the way he manages sway is toxic in its own way (though, admittedly, not in the same manner that Hyprland is).

I’ll definitely try to move the people I know who are interested in/users of NixOS over to Guix. Admittedly, there aren’t many to begin with haha.

Perfect timing haha! They might really be capitalizing on leftist/anti-fascist people moving away from NixOS. Regardless, I welcome the move.

If you asked me to produce a parody of what’s wrong (sociopolitically) with today’s world, I couldn’t come up with something better than just a straight screenshot of that post.

Yep, I’ve dabbled in Guix before but was put off by the smaller/more outdated repository (according to repology, it has improved a lot lately but it’s still nowhere near nixpkgs) and the official non-support/second-class support for non-FOSS software (which, as much as I try to avoid it, is still a necessity in my day-to-day). The ecossystem being smaller is also an issue, but I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty and contribute some of the glue myself if necessary. Something else is FSF’s reliance on mailing lists and IRC; I get sticking with FOSS, obviously, but aren’t there more modern/ergonomic FOSS alternatives that suit their needs? The move from Savannah to Codeberg for the repositories was a welcome one and I hope they would follow with the rest of their platform, but oh well.

Regardless, the time has come to make the jump. I can no longer afford to keep supporting a distribution being blatantly hijacked by far-right defense sector actors (for a far-right regime and their far-right allies). I hope Guix will treat me as well as I intend to treat it. :)

And I seriously pray that it is more resilient to hostile takeovers by fascists, since, to my knowledge, there are no other Linux distributions in the “declarative, reproducible, immutable” family/paradigm. It’s just NixOS and Guix. So Guix it is. I got too comfortable with the guarantees this model gives me to ever go back to more standard distros, I’m afraid.
