So what is it you want, the left to unite, inherit reformist ideas then play catch for the next 50 years while the right erode society again?
Socialist disagree for good reason its conducive to a healthy society.
I for one want to see this blind support for democrats to end, I want to see the US fight for a third party instead most of you are defeatists. Dogmatically in support of a right wing party. Let's not get liberal and socialist confused. My party on the UK cautiously support corbyns labour. We showd no support to labour under starmer.

i doubt this will be added to kernel as its a fix for an issue that isn't wide spread.
been using Arch for years but i am still a novice, yesterday i had found that in order for something to work on my system i will need to edit a few lines in kernel which i did, then removed unnecessary modules > intel, > nvidia, compiled. it worked great but with Arch and its rolling release i am dreading the next update and having to go through this again. what methods are there to automate this process?

this is nuanced. in the UK after ww2 our army's returned without housing, without long term health care which we did fight for and Britain had an NHS and housing within 5 years but we had to struggle to get it. now in current, we've slowly been selling our NHS, council housing isn't built at the necessary speeds. our towns and cities as well as education are on the brink of bankruptcy. capitalists are far better at small incremental changes then we are.
where incremental action does work is strike action, anti war movements as they empower the working class to fight but we wont get the world we want without a revolution. speaking of cause a classless society.

The world was deeply afraid of Marxism. When Russia experienced a workers-led revolution in 1917, Western powers were terrified of the spread of Marxist ideas and the potential threat they posed to the capitalist world order. In response, several Western states, along with their client states, sent their armies into Russia, aiming to overthrow the newly established worker-run government under the Bolsheviks. We attacked first, in an effort to suppress a system we feared.
This antagonism continued and evolved over the decades, culminating in the Cold War, where tensions between the Soviet Union and the West defined global politics. The Cuban Missile Crisis stands out as a key moment in this conflict. In fact, it was the United States that, in violation of international norms and against the Geneva Convention, installed nuclear launch sites along Russia's borders in Turkey, heightening the threat and contributing to the Soviet response of placing missiles in Cuba.
Historically, it's clear that we have been antagonistic towards Russia, driven by a fear of communism and a desire to maintain Western dominance. This pattern of confrontation has had long-lasting effects on the geopolitical landscape, contributing to the strained relations that persist today.

tell me the most ass over backward shit you do to keep your system chugging? here's mine: sway struggles with my dual monitors, when my screen powers off and back on it causes sway to crash. system service 'switch-to-tty1.service' ``` [Unit] Description=Switch to tty1 on resume After=suspend.target [Service] Type=simple ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/switch-to-tty1.sh [Install] WantedBy=suspend.target ``` 'switch-to-tty1.service' executes '/usr/local/bin/switch-to-tty1.sh' and send user to tty1 ``` #!/bin/bash # Switch to tty1 chvt 1 ``` .bashrc login from tty1 then kicks user to tty2 and logs out tty1. ``` if [[ "$(tty)" == "/dev/tty1" ]]; then chvt 2 logout fi ``` also tty2 is blocked from keyboard inputs (Alt+Ctrl+F2) so its a somewhat secure lock-screen which on sway lock-screen aren't great.
One of the best films I've seen, especially the psychosis scene where the room it torn apart to show a film set. films that can tell a story through minimal explanation or make a point without saying it. Enter the Void and Under the Skin are both similar and both do fantastic jobs of this too, glad to add Requiem of a Dream to this list! recommendations for similar please :) Also i have compiled a list of my top films if you wish to look: ::: spoiler Squids List of Films ___ films i like: requiem for a dream. enter the void. withneil and i -- one of my favourites. they live -- its good in consept but suffers the age fulling for trends that aren't well received now. Dr. strangelove -- timeless. The Rum Dairies -- amazingly writen and photography. shutter island. Rosmeries Baby. the man who wasn't there. lawless. the gardener -- a film that brings me much joy. a man called ove. cape fear. jacobs ladder. missery. the irishman. the road. the banchees of inisheran. the death of stalin. the wale. the lighthouse -- my kind of horror. in burges -- fantastic. swiss army man. fight club. devotion. Take Shelter. under the skin. -- another horror that i love. Birdman. the single shot and jazz made for an intense expirence! The Machinist. -- not a favourite as the film feels slow, to slow for its context. The Witch. There Will Be Blood. Oldboy. -- its good, its one i would wwatch with friends but lacks what i often want from a film. gone girl. ___ films i dislike: deep impact. Armageddon. poseidom. Memento -- failed to fully capture me and this i am sad for as i can tell its a good film. :::
A film i have heard of and have been recommended but put off over the years, but honestly so glad to of watched it actually due to a chatgpt suggestion where i put a list of books and films and asked for a recommendation based on those items. anyway im just glossing, in this thread we can recommend other media that relates. Withneil and I - is a classic and a favorite of mine as well as George Orwell's writings.

We have seen right wing populist protest **violently** through many cities and towns. Bristol stood strong today outnumbering the few protestors. We witnessed division. That division is made worse. Many of these protestors on the right have been mislead by modern media. Its so much easier to blame our national issues on migrants and look no further, in this way: calling them "fascists" or blindly proclaiming to want fully open borders may seem to be a gotcha but all we achieve is to alienate the confused working class people who we must bring over to our side. Our NHS is fucked from political mishandling, deals with private capitalist. Our homes are in short supply due to private development that build for profit. Our education, utilities and other things aren't businesses and shouldn't profit like them. These are the programme's we must push across. Solidarity Bristol I am proud to stand with you.

I wanted to share a setup I’ve been using to maintain a clean desktop while using Firefox in *fake* fullscreen mode. This setup allows Firefox to run fullscreen with auto-hiding tabs and search elements that only show when hovered over, without pushing the webpage content down. - Install [cage](https://github.com/cage-kiosk/cage), *can be found for most distros* - Run and test application `-d` removes desktop decorations, firefox command 'firefox -somecommand' `cage 'firefox' -d` - If running correctly edit launch options in de or .desktop file `Exec=cage 'firefox' -d` then install [auto-fullscreen](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/autofullscreen/) extension its a long work around especially when its possible to get a similar result from editing about:config but this way the tab and searchbar act as a seperate element meaning no misclicking. if anyone has cleaner solution chime in please.
so this is a technical issue that i have already reached out over but to no response or fix. i have used my alias's and have deactivated one of those alias's a year ago, i now and haven't been able to reactivate the alias. i would like to see this issue remedied but the lack of response is disheartening especially after reaching out to technical support months ago and hearing nothing back.

10 years ago i had a 2k LG ultrawide monitor, no need for software, account, internet it was an excellent monitor able to display two video inputs side by side. Now i own a Samsung Odyssey G9, it was the best value i could find with the panel type (4k+240hz Oled) cheep as i bought returned stock from Ebay, monitor is practically new with film over the screen and not even a finger print, all accessories were included. turn the monitor on once all is connected find half the settings are greyed out, clicking on them brings up a connection screen, i have no intention to connect this device to the internet, i was wanting to use the monitor as a dumb monitor. anyway i looked for the dual input setting but could not find it, checked manual and i must use multi-view, multi-view demands networking :/ being too stubborn i will forgo the feature. this is a kind of PSA and general *removed* but if your looking for a full featured ultrawide dumb monitor then its not the g9 as for whatever reason key features are locked behind networking, others are inbedded in a mobile companion app which needs an account maybe even a mobile number IIRC- as having this app on a SMART MONITOR would make little sense.. one feature that is in the companion app is a statistical screen displaying screen calibration information, something that is necessary for Oled screen and is included and easily accessible in most other brands monitors as it allows the user to have a rough idea of the monitors life span. another nagging issue with the G9 is the screen off and on, it takes awhile about 5 seconds from powering on pc from sleep, secondary monitor is almost instant so its a G9 issue and once the monitor is on a big bar takes up a large portion of the screen for a further 5 seconds displaying useless information, FPS, FreeSynce, picture mode, hdr, virtual aim point and game settings. it just awkwardly sits there defiantly in its vulgarity, ugly "gamer" design cooked up by some boomer. i will begrudgingly use the g9 whilst keeping an eye out for an off brand dumb monitor like AlienWear's offering with the same panel tech.
Reading is a recent development for me in the grand scheme of things, dyslexia meant I was hindered till I was about 18, picking up my first actual book 1984 at the age of 24. 10 years later I read roughly 3 books a year. Currently reading Manufacturing Consent and whilst I knew news media is often misleading, to what extent was not clear sadly I now know the extent. I'd like to have a conversation about Manufacturing Consent and what people have come away with. Other books too like Bullshit Jobs and Ordinary Men were big shift for my world view, so talking about and recommendations of similar books as well please.

i avoid hype but as a massive fan of the original kcd and the honesty of this reveal, im hyped! wont be pre-ordering though, never pre-order its bad for the industry and consumers.
Web browsers were very limited compared to today's offerings but still very extensive when compared to other applications. Now, browsers on desktop are at a point where they're equivalent to an OS in scope. This frustrates me as it's led to stagnation, where very few companies can hold their position. Firefox can only keep up due to preexisting groundwork and the large amount of funding from Google. Chrome had billions thrown at it to quickly enter the market. The thing that kills it the most for me is there is no way to fix the massive amount of effort needed for a web browser. It's extensive because it has to deal with thousands of situations: image rendering, video rendering, markup language support (HTML), CSS support, JavaScript support, HTML5 support, security features, tabbed browsing, bookmarking and history, search engine integration, cross-platform compatibility, performance optimisation, developer tools, accessibility features, privacy controls, codec support, to name a few. Now, for my unpopular opinion: stripping back a general-purpose browser to its core, forcing web redesign, and modularising the browser. Rather than watching videos in the browser, an instance of VLC would be started where the video will be streamed. Instead of an integrated password manager and bookmarks, we have something akin to KeepassXC with better integration. Markup documents and articles automatically open in word processing applications. I know this idea seems wholly impossible now, but it often crosses my mind.
I am going to request arch and the greater linux community replace xz with winrar.exe This is a community effort.
