Fuck the ~~Confederacy~~ Slavers
I feel like we hand these assholes a win every time we insult traitors, confederates, and the Confederacy because each of those is at least a step away from the entire reason for the war: slavery.
When I tell confederate-pilled assholes with the battle flag off, they get all insulated about heritage and making it about how I'm being impolite to them.
However (and I haven't had a chance to do this yet) I now plan to tell them, fuck slavery and kill the masters.
If they start going on about, "It wasn't about slavery" then tell them the documents of cesession and thus the Confederacy disagreed. They try to distract ("there were slave owning Union states") I'll tell them I'm not interested in post war loser propaganda and continually redirect to the documents of cesession: asking them to find a single mention of grievances other than the ability to own and retrieve slaves.
If they are SUPER dumb and start down the, "Not all slave owners!" or "Not everyone owned slaves" I'll tell them that if I was forced to work 16 hours/day 7 days a week, tortured, raped, and had my kids sold off I would kill the master the first chance I had. And if I wasn't a slave I would fight to destroy any society and political system that enabled such horrors. Whether that means pulling a John Brown and trying to ignite a slave rebellion or marching to Atlanta, killing every slave master I found.
Whatever comes up, redirect to slavery and the moral imperative to end it as quickly as possible. I want more memes about killing slave masters!
So, do callers push him on his complicity?
So Alex ignoring the pedophile cabal members sitting in office and ACTIVELY collaborating with Steve Bannon must cause some cognitive dissonance with his fan base.
Do callers and others push him on this? Are the crazies coming after Jones for being in the Epstein club?
Mr Lahey slinging breathalyzers!
I know it's an ad, but it's nice to see our dearly departed trailer park supervisor helping to combat drunk driving!
[Tenant - US-LA] AC Extension Cords
I just started renting a unit managed by a property management company. The remodel they did before I moved in was the typical min cost + no-one-in-charge affair. The air conditioners ALL require extension cords. Two were installed with the cords on the wrong side and thus can't reach any outlet (someome mixed up which AC unit goes in which room). The one in my living room can only reach the one electrical outlet controlled by a light switch.
I logged some tickets when I first moved in but had to go on vacation. But when I got back, the mixed up AC units were not moved. Instead, my appliance grade extension cords had been removed and the cords strung across the room in a way that isn't tenable.
What would y'all want me to do? It seems like the contractor and/or the property management company either doesn't care or doesn't want to know. I wouldn't trust tenants to use appropriate extension cords if it was my place but I'm worried about irritating the property managers.
What's up with Tenstorrent?
With the leak of Qualcomm acquisition negotiations, I'm curious as to Tenstorrent's market prospects. While they have been doing innovative work on the licensing front, I haven't heard much about their hardware sales.
Why did their AI hardware not take off? What are the prospects for Ascalon and future CPUs? How much of this is due to the fab oversubscription and high interest rates?
I was really hoping Tenstorrent would emerge as a competitor to the existing oligopolies, even if they are propped up just to ensure a second source supplier. A purchase by IBM or a roll-up with a smaller player would be much healthier for the market.
But it sounds like volume is a limiting factor that enables the big players to shut out competitors?
Edit: I'm not asking why I don't have a leading edge CPU. I'm asking why TensTorrent would be in serious negotiations instead of financing another round.
Ban "No KYC?" Questions?
Scammers love these and it is asked every couple weeks.
The resulting thread is just cut-and-paste recommendations from last week, which can be edited later to scam people. It's never a discussion about KYC, the merits of each option, nor proper opsec WRT traceability.
I would much rather see community members redirected to a wiki page with vetted links and the appropriate disclaimers about Bitcoin being super traceable.
Did I miss something? Why would a 28-bit address space be exciting for vegans?
Red Hat: OG Linux Giga Chad!
And this only goes back to when they switched to Git. Red Hat showed up and turned a pile of disparate open source projects into an open source operating system with dependable long-term support.
"Consensual" SystemD
>[Paying for everything] does not exempt Redhat from blame of pushing their standards, and distro maintainers complicit in limiting the choices for user of core components in GNU/Linux systems. I don't care about the money, I care about their influence. It should have been community's job to limit redhat involvement or create alternatives. And now we will use systemd-gnud, thanks to such enablers and those consumer brains of "I want a system that works" and "linux is not ready for desktop". -tomekgolab
The RH conspiracy theorists are gonna hate this!
Why does Red Hat seem to be involved in so many Linux subsystems? Because they built a business model around Linux and thus have the money to pay people to work on it.
Joseph Smith STOLE the seer stone!? 🤯
So you know Wiliard Chase? The psychic, necromancer, etc that tried to steal the golden plates from Joseph Smith? Turns out, they were friendly enough for Chase to lend **his** seer stone that he had found on **his** property to Joseph Smith and the guy refused to give it back?!
The thechurchofjesuschristoflatterdaysaints is in possession of stolen property!!!
He had it in his possession about two years.—I believe, some time in 1825, Hiram Smith (brother of Joseph Smith) came to me, and wished to borrow the same stone, alledging that they wanted to accomplish some business of importance, which could not very well be done without the aid of the stone. I told him it was of no particular worth to me, but merely wished to keep it as a curiosity, and if he would pledge me his word and honor, that I should have it when called for, he might take it; which he did and took the stone. I thought I could rely on his word at this time, as he had made a profession of religion. But in this I was disappointed, for he disregarded both his word and honor.
In the fall of 1826, a friend called upon me and wished to see that stone, about which so much had been said; and I told him if he would go with me to Smith's, (a distance of about half a mile) be might see it. But to my surprize, on going to Smith's, and asking him for the stone, he said, "you cannot have it;" I told him it belonged to me, repeated to him the promise he made me, at the time of obtaining the stone: upon which he faced me with a malignant look and said, "I don't care who in the Devil it belongs to, you shall not have it."
Mullins on DLC?
I just got into the bones Kaycee mod and I'm really impressed with how much the community has been able to flesh out the game!
Even if they didn't source anything from the mods, the core game has been developed enough that Kaycee's mod DLCs consisting of the bones, magic, and robot seems like a money making proposition.
Has Mullins, the studio, or the publisher said anything about why they haven't persued such DLC?

Cascadia Separatist Movement
What the rest of the world doesn't understand is that the Cascadia Separatist Movement has been around forever! We never wanted to live under the yoke of the colonial oppressors!
But since you all asked so nicely, I guess we can take over for the whole thing.
DEATH TO MEGASOTA!
Why isn't the sub more welcoming?
I **love** WASM and related technologies! I think they offer a lot in terms of security and cross platform compatibility.
But this requiring permission to post or comment seems like it really limits community growth. I would really appreciate knowing the rationale behind that decision.
If more mods would enable loosening the rules, I'm willing to help out! 😁
Messing with SovCit Cars
I really hate these people, as they sucked my brother and nephew down into their dumbfuck rabbit hole. My brother is now in Mexico because he decided he didn't have to pay taxes!
Anyone ever messed with their car or them? Because if they call the police, they won't be able to drive away.
I was thinking of creating my own carboot service: I will remove it if the police show up and tell me to or I can charge them $100.
