Big Miku

Time to move to the glorious nation of Kazakhstan, the top producer of potassium, to get some of those magic minerals to protect my countless buildings.

It goes to 9 minutes from 8, since every single communication gadget will yell out that the sun has disappeared as reports come in from the other side of the earth.

My first distrobution was the good old Ubuntu for a laptop that I used for school. I stuck with that for 2-3 years. During that time I really, really wanted to try out new distros, but I didn’t want to lose my files and such, so I just stuck with it. During this time I also changed my desktop’s os to Ubuntu, but I am not sure when I did it.

After I got a Laptop due to the previous being old and broken, I tried out Arch Linux and grew to love it more than Ubuntu, so I changed out my desktop’s os to that as well when I got a new ssd and was migrating to it. I used Arch for another year or two, before my laptop had a disk failure and I had to reinstall. I installed Debian onto it, since I was feeling lazy and didn’t want to go through the mess of installing Arch again. And then later I also installed Windows on it with dualboot for games that didn’t want to work with Proton.

So basically I now use Arch on the desktop and Debian/Windows on laptop.

Wouldn’t this be the case for any system that we could live under? There are always things that are needed to be produced (like food), so the system would have to prioritize those before allowing for more less-important things (like art and such). The amount of stuff that is needed to run modern society is pretty huge, so the positions that are left open for art and such would be pretty small, since those aren’t required for the existence of the system you live under. Of course they are needed for societal stuff, but that doesn’t matter if everyone dies of hunger due to a lack of farmers.

The only way I see this changing is to automate the tasks that require the most amounts of humans to do that job, thus opening more places further up the “importance pyramid”. And by importance pyramid, I mean the hierarchy needed job, where the lowest is the most important for the continued existence of the system and the top is less important.

Here’s examples of my argument for the two main political systems that seem to be around here (socialism and capitalism).

Under capitalism supply and demand would steer us to make the important stuff before the less important stuff, since if there’s no people to buy the products that are made, there’s no point in making them. So the markets steer towards the more important stuff. Of course we could go around and around on the semantics of this way of thinking, but that’s the simplified version of this.

Under socialism the same laws of supply and demand would apply, but this time it isn’t the “invisible hand of the market” who makes the decision, but the state, the councils, or whatever ruling structure is in your flavour of leftism. There’s just no getting around the demands that current society makes in order to run properly.

So it all boils down to supply and demand. There’s is always going to be less demand for art when compared to food or medicine.

I was definitely more active on Reddit, since it had the niche subs I wanted to discuss on. Lemmy has more “generic” content, since it doesn’t have the user base to grow those niche communities.

No clue about the constitution, since I am not american, but it would be logical to think that the religous can rule as long as they don’t break other human rights.

I mean it kinda does with the whole “freedom of expression” thing it has.

I could be wrong on this, but that’s how I interperted it.

Because of those pesky human rights that mandate “freedom of religion” or whatever.

Not that I know of, but it should be added in for those who don’t want to interact with people from Hexbear. If people have the freedom to block an instance for themselves it would expand the decentralization that Lemmy is built on, since people don’t have to move to those instances to block out Hexbear.

I’ve read that blocking the Hexbear domain is a solution to this, but that isn’t a proper solution, since those who aren’t tech-literate would have a pretty hard time doing that, so a first-party solution would be the best.

If this happens they’ll do the “A person who swears to tell the truth and nothing but the truth says what” ordeal. If that doesn’t work they will just let you leave

I honestly forgot where this meme was posted and thought it was a really weird shitpost.

But wouldn’t that invalidate the usage of that word in the circles that use it wrong, and not for those who use it properly.

Like if there was a hypothetical town where the word “good” was used to describe bad things, would that town invalidate the word “good” for every single town? Of course it wouldn’t, it would only invalidate the usage of that word by the ones who use the word in question wrong.

But that wasn’t said in your original message, was it? In your original message you were implying that by the USA spending more money in their military to spread their influence, would make the US government a tankie(?), thus invalidating everyone who uses the word tankie.

Also if your point was that the word tankie lost its meaning by usage in invalid contexts, why did you mention the USA? Wouldn’t it have been more appropriate to explain that it lost its meaning by the usage of it, and not by the actions of the US government, since the US is not the only nation who has people who use the word tankie?

Either you are willingly redefining a word, or you don’t even know what it means

Tankie means a person who supports an authoratian communist state.

The word comes from the Tianamen Square Massacre, where tanks were used to silence and kill protester, which some people think didn’t happen.

It’s ironic. Like I am small dude, but I call myself big.
