I can see why that kind of libertarianism is unpopular. Thanks for the explanation. I’m coming from the “every person has freedom to do all that they will, provided they infringe not the equal freedom of any other person” school of thought where slavery is absolutely not allowed and there’s government to protect people’s liberty and freedom.
I see. It sounds like “liberty for me, not for thee”. Not cool.
What no I’m not saying that, of course they did. I’m saying slavery was allowed under the authority of the government and backed by state sanctioned violence. Corporations don’t have that same authority over our lives the way governments do. Under an actual libertarian system it’s impossible to to have slavery without violating a persons liberty.
I don’t agree with the assessment on slavery because in that system nobody would have the authority to sell another person in the first place. Although I suppose you could sell yourself and have indentured servitude.
Edit and I guess I’m going to get all “no true scottsman” over here and say a libertarian that doesn’t believe in liberty and freedom isn’t a libertarian at all. But thanks for explaining it a bit.
I’ve never understood the hate for libertarians. It seems to me some of the biggest injustices in the world never could have happened if governments weren’t allowed to have the authority to control those aspects of individuals lives. Such as the legalization of slavery, manifest destiny and illegalization of drug use, gay marriage, gender affirming care, birth control, abortion were all aspects of government controll in our lives that they had no business dictating IMHO. Edit - missed a word
Same. I bought a fixer upper and haven’t moved in yet due to the very messy renovations I’m doing slowly on evenings and weekends after my full-time job. I’m almost to the point I can move in though.
I agree with you that the gui toolkit is pretty uninteresting from the users pov, or at least mine. I do wonder if the multi-threaded transcoding pipeline changes in ffmpeg 7 will improve performance in handbrake at all. I’m not sure if Handbrake calls the ffmpeg cli or not.
I’m going to be doing this and if you get hit it’s your own fault!
After this episode I pulled that bit on my sister daily.
Ugh the caps lock key is too useless for the home row!
Oh lord that escape key bit is me
Who tf thought I’d ever want to edit a spreadsheet in a chat application anyway?
Can I use this to make my 48 hour weekend feel like a 480 hour weekend? I really don’t want to be back at work.
Oh yeah. Back in the late 90s I played all the games ported by Loki Games. I played the native quakes, portal 1 & 2. And using regular Wine and some winetricks I played about 300 hours of Skyrim and completed Mass Effect 1,2,3.
You probably remember the libc5 to glibc swap. Bad times to DIY distros.
Hmm I have come up with a bunch of neat solutions over the years. Where to start?
One time I broke the sudoers file on a distro without a root account, thoroughly locking myself out. I used docker -v /:/chroot
to get myself root access to my root filesystem where I fixed the sudoers file. Protip always use visudo
Minification is a curse. Now hear me out… I’ve wasted so much engineering time trying to figure out why various build scripts fail in docker only to find there’s a tool = $(which tool) 2>/dev/null
in there eating the real error. Which is missing because someone wanted to save a 100k by not installing it the docker image base image.
I’ve seen Beetlejuice 167 times and it keeps getting funnier every single time I see it!
Anybody that doesn’t want a Johnny Dangerously reboot is a fargin icehole!
Fuckin a, man.
Is another of my favorite responses to “how’s it going”
