History lives in the present
  • Alternate caption: "Zionists smuggling in settlers before the British mandate ended to have enough votes to create a State of Israel as a safe haven for Holocaust refugees, then getting populated mostly by Jews fleeing Arab countries out of fear of retaliation for having created the State of Israel a day early and having pushed most Palestinians out by force"

  • Defediverse
  • He didn't even want to kill all those people, he only wanted to exploit them and then deport everyone to Africa... but the Allies wouldn't let him conquer enough Africa for all of them, so what was he to do? Killing then wasn't even his idea, it was Reinhardt's! He just signed it...

    (do I put an /s? it's historically correct...)

  • Winning is relative
  • Ironically, the average total taxation (after you add local, regional, national, etc. taxes) is either lower or at a similar approx. 35% of income.

    Americans just get stiffed by where that money goes afterwards.

  • Opinion: Distributions that only change non-system pre-installed software or desktop environment should instead be packages or scripts
  • I know what I said. Linux upholds the "don't break userspace" contract pretty well: most kernels, particularly those from generalistic distros built with modules, are compatible with whatever userspace binaries you throw at them. Major version changes in glibc (or equivalent) is where incompatibilities start, but those happen quite rarely, and you can often still force multiple glibc versions to run side by side.

  • What @exi@feddit.de said. Switching .deb based distros is little more than changing sources, maybe some pinning, doing an upgrade, and optionally a cleanup pass to remove any stranglers.

    My main Linux box is a Debian-Ubuntu-Debian upgrade, that hasn't seen a proper reinstall for like 15 years (switched all the hardware several times, still no clean reinstall).

    Switching between non-deb distros is also possible, with a chroot. Like, Gentoo to Fedora. As long as the kernel is compatible with the glibc, it's basically like running containers, just on slightly hard mode.

  • Opinion: Distributions that only change non-system pre-installed software or desktop environment should instead be packages or scripts
  • Not really, I'm not new to containers.

    This might blow yours though: I once booted up from a Tomsrtbt disk, installed Debian, added some RedHat packages, and topped it up with some pinned downgrades from Ubuntu.

    On bare metal, no containers, no rebooting.

  • What is your religion and what led you to identifying with / believing in it?
  • Transhumanist, non-practicing Antitheist

    Raised Roman Catholic, broke with that after a classmate died out of the blue of an aneurysm (how could God let shit like that happen?), after looking through Buddhism and some Occultist stuff, realized that the main function of "God" is to be used as a prop to scam people. I've considered the Satanist Left Hand path, but I don't care about rituals. I'd rather follow the scientific method as applied to everything, and use it to extend and expand human nature. While theists still kind of nauseate me with a dash of pity, like seeing a dead kitten in the gutter, I'm up for positive interactions with anyone capable of maintaining one.

  • Opinion: Distributions that only change non-system pre-installed software or desktop environment should instead be packages or scripts
  • Debian would not create and maintain a "core debian" variant just to be installed then receive the extra packages

    Debian server minimal, is kind of a "core Debian". There are netinst versions that can be even smaller. The Debian base image for Docker is even smaller than all that.

    There is also an Ubuntu minimal install that you could call "core Ubuntu".

    But more importantly, and I can't stress this enough: YOU CAN SWITCH DISTROS WITHOUT REINSTALLING. Might need to do some cleanup afterwards, but it's perfectly doable, more so between Debian based ones.

  • The Blender market is kinda revolutionary and noone really talks about it
  • Could you link some examples?

    Also keep in mind that people can release their work under multiple licenses, so they may upload the same work with a different license (like a privative one) to other markets.
