It's this mode of thinking that tbh kills democracies, both internally and externally. The idea that just because you're struggling, your problems are someone else's problems.

We see it here (and elsewhere) with people continually calling for and hoping for politicians to "do the right thing" rather than organize themselves (unless it's to do something easy like stand around holding signs) and think through new reforms to then push for (we even have the article 5 mechanism designed explicitly for that); we see it elsewhere with "Where is the West, why isn't anyone helping" as they forget we have literally neither mandate nor motive to solve their problem for them, and problems of our own besides.

Yes, we will likely intervene on certain actions anyways to preclude all-out wars if they loom. But if it gets to that point it will only be insofar as it protects us or defuses that war; liberation and organization is still ultimately a people's own problem we literally have no business butting into.

I have a lot to say to and ask you, but right now I'll say you're right.

Nobody wants war, but in most context people don't feel the need to handle their lives either. Democracy re-emerges after wars because the people felt hard and had to suffer and wake up, so now it's obvious and easier to act for peace and democracy.

Seems like societies just have a MTBF of 50 years and after that war acts as a reset button.

It required killing 7 million Germans, 10% of the population. I guess if you kill enough people, that does reduce certain types of chaos... but a world war is basically peak chaos.
I wish I understood why there isn't a move to reinstate border checks in the Schengen area.

But there is a move. In fact, multiple countries have done so, although temporarily: https://euobserver.com/migration/130260

Thing is, border control isn't free; it may not be visible for many of us, but there are a lot of people reliant on the openness of our borders for their daily lives. Imagine having to pass a border check on your way to work - that'd be the reality for many EU citizens nowadays if you were to reintroduce country borders.

And would it really solve the problem? What if those migrants just came by boat anyway? What are we going to do, let'em drown?

> I recall from very young period of my life that in our kindergarten there were numbers in a cloakroom, written along the wall, and number 20 was exactly at the corner.

Maybe this is why and not Synesthesia?
As a native German, I'd say it is essential in most parts of the country, except in a few urban areas such as Berlin or maybe Munich. But generally, for integration purposes (and also for better dealing with the infamous German bureaucracy), staying in Germany without learning German would become pretty painful after a while.

All the stuff that you mentioned is already there in some capacity. python3 is at 3.4 in the main channel. SCL would likely have newer versions. SCL is mostly for development. I wouldn't expect crazy long support for the SCL stuff. That's by definition though. Use the main channel for long support. nginx is in epel. zfs is in the zfsonlinux repos. LXC used to be in main channels, but they deprecated it in favour of docker. You can still get it from epel. RHEL + EPEL should cover most of the useful stuff. There are also some multimedia and nvidia driver packages packaged by negativo17 if you really need them.

>that's a bit of shifting the goal-posts, isn't it? Communism resulted in the deaths of ~100 million people due to famines from planned economy mismanagement, genocide, mass murder and so on but that's fine because Nazis were horrific murderers too?

No, that's just not a significant argument against communism in general, as similar things happened not just by the "Nazis" but by all major regime changes. Europe had power struggles, civil wars, executions, economy mismanagement etc for 2 centuries leading to the 20th century (which brought WWI and WWII and the colonial wars).

Heck, the modern democratic era started with hundreds of thousands executed in the French Revolution, and then the Napoleonic wars -- and countless other peripheral wars, power struggles, and bloody revolutions.

When Communism came about in Russia, non-communism Europe was torn by the bloodbath of WWI, pogroms, ethnic tensions, etc.

But when it's up to communism we do a sleight of hand, and gather all deaths under communism, in all countries, under various reasons, and do a mass tally to prove how bad it is.

Maybe do a similar tally under non-communism? Let's even constrain it to the 20th century.

Only then would a comparison make sense, whether communism is so worse than our cherished non-communism systems, or whether we're just summing all kinds of 20th century wars, tensions and power struggles that happened to take place under communism in some countries, and forget the similar happenings in non communism countries.
+1. This is literally the only site I visit every day. Some days I don't even google stuff
The difficulty is that it is also a huge bet to continue "business as usual". Not making significant changes is also a choice, and based on the best science (indeed, imperfect models) we have so far, it does not look good...

Mercury contamination isn't usually a problem with shellfish because they're so near the bottom of the food chain. It's more a problem with big predatory fish like tuna, because each level of the food chain concentrates the mercury.

However, shellfish are very good at collecting micro-plastics, which is an unknown risk.
This may be the death blow for Jigsaw. It's already been a work in progress for a decade or so and has been delayed and pushed back many times.

Summary: Jigsaw suffers from a low usefulness-to-complexity ratio, and wants to reinvent all the wheels rather than building on and standardising existing conventions.
And you could do that all along using ProGuard on rt.jar (without redistributing it). I remember this being in the 30 MB range, too, so Jigsaw really seems to be utterly useless in reducing the minimum footprint. They could have just allowed vendors to split rt.jar officially.
I don't agree at all, I think it's important to integrate immigrants in a country's culture as well as possible, because not doing so will result in damaging conflict between the existing population and the immigrants who bring conflicting value systems with them. I think the lack of an endless supply of resources for integrating immigrants is a good reason to limit immigration.

I think borders can be very valuable to separate groups with conflicting ideologies and worldviews, but I wish you the best luck in advocating that policy in your local political sphere.

> but the Turks vote for him.
"Vote". I'm not quite sure about Turks, but in Russia "vote" is a fake. As Stalin once said "It's not about who votes, it's all about who counts the votes".

There were always way too many violations in the vote process. e.g. people who voted multiple times, militaries who were forced to vote in the right way. God damn it, even 146% of a votes sum translated on federal TV channels [1]. Nobody even tries to hide violations anymore.

A lot of people simply don't believe there is anything they can do about it. They just wait the people in charge will be gone.

Plus add massive brainwashing, threatenings like "without <put the name> the country will fall into chaos", active opposition mortification by government.

And here we are.

>> Vieux-Chauvet’s novel instead provides portraits of diverse individuals—free people of African descent, enslaved people, white slave owners and white actors, parents and children.

>> The evocation of the ways in which women sought out space, autonomy, and futures for themselves and their families in the colonial order makes the book particularly powerful.

This article (and presumably the book it draws from) seems to want to paint revolutionary Haiti as a kind of multicultural, proto-feminist paradise.

Instead, the slave revolt led to the torture, rape, and ultimately complete genocide of the nation's remaining European-derived population, including women and children, and the slumping of one of the wealthiest colonies of North America into what it is today: one of the poorest places on the continent[1]:

"Dessalines later gave the order to all cities on Haiti that all white men should be put to death."

"Dessalines would proclaim an amnesty for all the whites who had survived in hiding during the massacre. When these people left their hiding place, however, they were killed as well."

"[T]he majority of the women were initially not killed. Dessalines's advisers, however, pointed out that the white Haitians would not disappear if the women were left to give birth to white men, and after this, Dessalines gave order that the women should be killed as well, with the exception of those who agreed to marry non-white men."

Far from paradisiacal...

Religion can definitely be violent, unless you mean it cannot because an idea cannot take actions, people do.

• Religion A holds all life to be sacred.

• Religion B mandates ritual animal sacrifice.

How are the adherents of A going to view B as anything but violent?

You are right there- but its not just a math problem. Once people would use it, the usual suspects would show up and start to warp this distributed web.

Despots would add sinks that suck in all messages, by pretending to be a known plankton/connection.

Also assume that traditional isps would first try to subvert it and then try to replace it by providing a similar walled in service - warning from the dangerous open source network.

The whole thing would have to be constructed in away like the TOR-Network, preventing the identification of sender and reciver before Arrival.

Finally i think the problem remains, that any sufficiently enough supressing regime, would force its citizens to uninstall such software.
I would be hard pressed to believe the people pushing out tanks that night were just anti-coup.

Yes, I can understand your wondering (I'm a Russian too). When I hear about the waves of Russian propaganda all around the globe I can't stop to ask myself a question: "how we become so powerful?". I'm afraid that nowadays some people tend to call any opposite opinion in their countries as a Russian propaganda. And I can understand that with a lack of good opposition/alternative media people start to read Russia Today, just like we here in Russia read BBC and other Western media, especially when we think that our state media tries to hide something from us.

By the way, do you know what a main evil scheme Kremlin uses to brainwash the citizens, to set them against the West? It's not some made-up, fake news. They made a few websites instead, where anyone can read translated articles about Russia, published in Western media. And that's it. As you understand, it's much harder to find something pro-Russian there to translate, than vice versa.

On a serious note, I think that the only way to fight with the streams of fakes (regardless the country) is a restriction of anonymity on the Internet.
This particular example is not like other inventions though.

We know we can create lifts that do underground and then connect entry points and exit points by tunnel networks. We already have very miniature things like this.

What the video shows is a vast network of underground tunnels with a tram system for personal vehicles and some public transit connecting different points in the city or connecting other cities. I can kinda see why you might do this and it sounds like a fun ride.

But even a layman can see this is going to be incredibly expensive and you have to wonder why would build this ahead of other types of mass transit. I'd like to see a business plan. Until then, I'm a sceptic.

The wicked witch trope is named after the wicked witch of the west character, which don't do much leering or hand rubbing. There is a lot of cackling, possible some eye-rolling, but that's about it. An other famous witch villain is the white witch (Narnia), which has none of those attributes.

But lets look at a famous villain that has been portrait as both female and male roles and see how they differ. Moriarty is male in the TV show Sherlock (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN7DYPJLXkc), and female in Elementary (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lY7i8cQontg). Which character is show more as the typical villain, and which is portrait as more complex with redeeming values? If they keep the script identical with the exact same lines, what would happened if the genders was reversed for the two shows?

I'd argue that this is highly dependent on the type of data you scrape and the what you want to do with the data.

If you have a good data model the categorizing, storing and searching of the final result the isn't a big problem and the scraping is the complicated part. If you don't have a specific kind of resource you are scraping and just dump everything into some storage solution with no structure that's going to be the hard part while scraping is the easy part.

Canada has always been an elitist kleptocracy profiting off shipping out resources -- Laurentian or other elites whose fundamental modus operandi has been to control the process of digging stuff up, cutting it down, pumping it out, or trapping/killing/skinng it... and sending it out of the country while doing the least amount of industry building at home. It's always been the Family Compact, the HBC, CN, CP. A small club of elites. The current Prime Minister is the epitome of it.

Those people are still in charge and not going anywhere. As long as there's something to dig up and sell to the world they'll hold on for dear life.
