Zelenskyj and Beppe Grillo’s “moVimento 5 stelle”

I guess there’s at least three… Huh

P.s. for a left-wing party this PARTEI thing you speak of has the most right-wing name I’ve ever heard

Is there a scientific way to prove this? Or am I to just trust your words?

I can think of at least two times a European comedian founded a party and the party won the elections.

Which isn’t much but it’s weird it happened twice

Today I discovered a new website

Cool game, would recommend

What you have in America, I don’t live there. But yes, I do, just a bad one. And if you believe in this meme I raise you another one: would you consider Kim Jong Un a democratically elected leader?

No, the People might just be stupid. You see, many people are gullible and get convinced easily by rallies of some rich politicians. Sometimes, they might even believe that one day they will be as rich as them, and so they see something good for the rich as something good for them. But, unless the people are threatened to vote, or the polls are manipulated, it’s still democracy

“Democracy” has nothing to do with “free healthcare” or any of those things listed. Democracy only means that the citizens vote. They can vote for stupid/bad things but it’s still a democracy. Similarly, a dictatorship that does some good things is still a dictatorship

Anyone who’s a bit inquisitive about what words means will notice that “transform” means “changing shape”, and that the teeth that look like dog fangs are called “canines”. At that point, “caniformia” obviously means “dog-shaped”.

Specialistic terms don’t need to be easy for the layman, but to be explicative for the specialist. I can say that “a complete lattice is the generalisation of the power set of some domain” which is a phrase composed entirely of English words but if you haven’t studied anything about abstract algebra you don’t knkw what it means, but that is a phrase made for math students, not for any random guy.

Also those Latin terms are literally international terms, a Russian biologist will say “Canis lupus” to an Icelandic biologist and they will understand. So you really have nothing to complain about. Just be glad that Linnaeus used an agnostic language for international terminology instead of using his native language (Swedish) like the anglophones do.

P.s. you know that Mussolini had all commonly used foreign words and names translated to Italian? And to this day Italian children don’t study Francis Bacon and René Descartes, but Francesco Bacone and Renato Cartesio.

How is any of those a prerogative of democracy?

Well, corruption is better than crimson

If only…

Those are POSIX acls, and they suck

We could have had NFSv4 ACL, of which windows ACLs are a subset. In fact, every other unix os did… Except for Linux, they decided it didn’t fit well to Linux. And so we are stuck with UGO permissions, and posix ACLs.

I pronounce it spelling out only C H, but spelling them in my native language, so it sounds like “chee akka mod” and of course the same goes for “chee akka own”

A garden gnome that fights sperm whales

Have you tried gnome connections? It’s more on the “quick and easy” rather than “professional” side, but maybe it does the job.

Tho I wonder whether it’s more of a windows-side issue… maybe windows 11 requires some kind of online authentication that cannot be implemented by other clients, and maybe this authentication can be turned off. I’m merely speculating here, but I know that remmina works for windows 10 so it’s suspicious.

It works because of triangles. Just start drawing some diagrams and you’ll quickly figure out how on your own. Which is more fun than having someone give you a geometric proof.

Try it. Look at a mirror and put a ruler on the mirror, the size of your face on the mirror will always be the same, no matter how far you are. It will be half the size of your actual face.

When you see your own face in the mirror, no matter how far you are, the portion of the mirror showing your face is always half the size of your actual face.
