23·3 days agoJava is inherently cross platform, and works well on linux. So assuming the phone is powerful enough, you should be good to go even if it’s linux.
Definitely worth checking out Minetest/Luanti though, it has promise.
1·6 days agoThat’s fair. But it’s at least something.
Anyway, I’m just saying the crypticness is largely cultural and unnecessary. If there is some kind of CLI “skin” that lets you interact with Linux at the command line using normal words, I’d love to know about it.
This is far more manual than you probably had in mind, but Linux has support for a command called alias, which allows you to basically rename anything you like:
He is dumb, but its a bit deeper than that. They fetishize free speech and lack of censorship, but in practice they don’t actually want free speech and they love censorship.
So when they create an LLM that’s predisposed with that fetishization, it comes out in the form of calling nazis like Elon for being nazis.
They’re trying to have their cake and eat it too, but it’s blowing up in their face.
6·6 days agoTrump is the figure uniting the fascists in the US when he pops it topples and the spell is broken.
I sincerely hope so, but I don’t find that likely. People aren’t turning to fascism just because they like him, they’re doing so because they aren’t able to think critically, or are hateful, or are looking for easy answers to the complex issues fucking up their lives, or all of the above.
Trump didn’t get to power in a vacuum. The political environment is ripe for it.
8·8 days agoEVs still bring noise, pollution, land use, and carbon emissions from concrete. So they don’t solve all the problems with cars, they should be a last resort.
yeah im just saying one show does not mean anything.
Nor have I said so. I was giving an example of how the boomers have valued cops, and how they view them.
heck andy griffith was more a small town show than a cop show
Sure, but the underlying effect and message of the show was “hey cops are the good guys, they’ll look out for your family”
I would say cop vs general emergency responder vs hospital/doctor show ratios are not that different today than back when boomers were the main television audience
That’s far better argument. Though I’d say it still misses the mark because even modern cop shows are still meant for an older group. Gen Z isn’t watching those shows. The closest is Brooklyn 99, which is closer to pornography than reality, or an attempt at reality. There’s also true crime, but often the value there is morbid curiosity, not “cops are good”.
Sorry i misread the description of emergency. Let me start over.
Emergency showing how boomers value other emergency services doesn’t negate the point that they value the police, whereas newer generations tend to reject the police.
That’s a nearly 50 year old show. Not exactly the best choice.
If folks got promoted by working hard then folks would value it now but it does not happen
Hence why they loathe it.
Honestly I don’t think the police were valued over firemen or emts.
Things like The Andy Griffith Show seems to suggest otherwise.
How do you ensure people give up their turn?
How do you handle the complexity of providing for millions?
Again I agree. This has been a long time coming, and the two party system isn’t the only cause.
But by and large, the failures of checks in balances within the U.S. has been a result of the failure of implementation, not the core idea.
That’s where they fucked up the implementation. It’s being ignored because 1 party controls all 3 branches of the federal government.
They implemented a voting system that naturally devolves into a two parry system. Checks and balances don’t work when you are the one checking yourself.
Culture itself is a system maintained by force, in its particular case it’s social force, peer pressure, pressure from family, etc.
It breeds opposition within itself, which is why it constantly changes.
And I think you’re wrong in that cultural longer. A good example of this is the values of the boomers. They valued the nuclear family, working hard to get promoted, the police, the american dream, etc. It’s now the complete opposite, the nuclear family is regarded as a joke, people loathe the idea of staying at a job longer than a few years let alone the decades the boomers would do. The police are hated, and the american dream is dead.
Only by ensuring that there are numerous power bases with the ability to effectively restrain one-another, and relatively free entry/advancement in each, can a free equilibrium be maintained in a society.
Agreed. Any system is going to require a strong system of checks and balances. That’s one of the few good ideas the founding fathers had. They gloriously fucked up the implementation obviously. But the core concept is critical.
Of course, we have quite a few regulations and regulatory bodies nowadays, so the only real question is in the details of it, rather than the general concept. The concept is obviously workable.
For now we do.
Culture isn’t static. It drifts over time and newer generations of people will cease to value what their parents did. Any system maintained by culture will die rather quickly.
I do the same, but not because of sales, but because it takes 2-3 years for the high seas to swell with jolly rogers.
