They made it through the special period, but I’m not sure how it compares to what they are currently facing. I think a Vietnam type deal will be hard to resist, but I don’t think the US will accept anything but total capitulation.

Operation Pointless Sacrifice is a go.

UK Secretary of State for Energy Security:

line go up. take that, commies.

Good video.

Reading the comments and it’s full of people who suffered long term consequences from covid, some recently, thanking him for putting out the video.

It’s a good first linux OS. It’s the easiest way to get a stable linux distro with a bunch of quality of life tweaks OOTB. I greatly encourage it for new users.

The limitations are greatly exaggerated, but you basically can’t mess with system stuff. It makes it stable, but if you want to dive into linux and tweak it until things start to break, it’s not the distro for you.

You can do more advanced stuff, but it requires learning containers. Which is useful if you ever want to try services with docker containers.

I’ve been running a simliar distro called bluefin, basically bazzite but without all the gaming tweaks/software added by default, for about a year and have no complaints. It’s been the most trouble-free distro i’ve ever used.

ghost of kuwait strikes again

So when the two countries attacked the compound of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on February 28, killing him and several of his family members, Mandana — who like others interviewed used a pseudonym — believed the change she coveted had finally come.

Her experience in the terrifying days since has shattered that belief. Air strikes have targeted not just military sites and senior regime figures but have repeatedly hit civilian infrastructure.

Over the weekend, Tehran was enveloped in toxic black smog after Israel bombed fuel depots around the city; on Tuesday, massive explosions caused widespread blackouts.

“We weren’t supposed to be bombed,” Mandana said, her voice trembling after a massive explosion near her apartment by Vanak Square in central Tehran. “Our city, our country, this wasn’t supposed to happen. How is it that Venezuela . . . saw clean, bloodless regime change, but not here?”

Oh I’m familiar. Something something “on the verge of victory but betrayed by cowardly liberals” something something “spitting on troops”…

He thinks we won because we killed more people.

But other advisers remained confident that killing Iran’s senior leadership would lead to more pragmatic leaders taking over who might bring an end to the war

Amazing.
