It’s mainly a mix of economic frusturation and a divide and conquer strategy by the rich in order to have the masses blame immigrants and people of other races/religions/genders/sexual orientations/etc. for all of their problems instead of blaming the elite class and capitalism. The lie of meritocracy being real also plays a big role here (“temporarilly embarrassed billionaires”).

There is another angle, though, and that’s sexual frusturation. When a teenage male has issues getting laid and they look online for some kind of support, they find people like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson who tells them that men who “get laid” are “alphas” or whatever and that women should be treated as subhuman or as slaves. These incels have likely never actually attempted to make friends with any women outside of a sexual or romantic context, because if they did, they would learn that women are the same as them, even when it comes to their struggles (even pertaining to dating/sexual frusturations).

I think the latter reason (specifically Gamergate) sparked the fire that made the first truely possible on a scale that we haven’t seen in our lifetimes.

There is also the additional piece of info that the majority of people won’t take action against what is happening in politics until it personally affects them, which is a very unfortunate reality.

I hear Elon has been wanting to colonize Mars.

Cult. MAGA is a cult.

Not only was he illegally searched, but McDonald’s is likely engaging in illegal facial recognition based surveillance, possibly in collusion with the federal government.

No way a random McDonald’s worker could randomly point out that Mangione looks like the suspect, of which we had very few photos.

Not to mention the solitary confinement, although unfortunately, I’m not sure that’s illegal, even given the 8th amendment.

I… Is that Sans?

Yes. PipePipe is a fork of NewPipe.

I’d recommend being a bit more gentle. Note the green color. That means there’s a decent amount of chlorophyll in there, which can be reduced by reducing the intensity/time in the washer.

You can always do multiple washes to extract more product, but always try to make the first wash the best so you can have some top shelf.

If you really want to go fancy with it, you can make a hash ball and age it. Frenchy Canolli has good info on how to do this, and also great info about hash making in general.

We have always been at war with Eurasia

I hate how true this is. I still won’t personally engage in violence out of principle, but the populous as a whole can only take so much before not even Netflix can distract them any longer, especially when the fascist government actively engages in violent behavior against that same populous.

I also hate how most people don’t care about what’s happening until it personally affects them or someone they know. Like, it’s just basic empathy.

Even if Biden completely abolished ICE, Trump would have just created a new one.

It’s more for other people reading the comment chain :P

When drinking black (especially on a regular basis), you’re going to notice the finer details of the actual flavor of the coffee, especially bitterness (or the lack thereof).

When you drink coffee with shittons of cream and sugar, that covers up essentially all of the bitterness, and makes a lot of the intricacies of coffee disappear.

I find the same thing goes with chocolate. A nice, 80+% dark chocolate will have a much more complex and rich flavor to me than, say, a milk chocolate (even a high quality milk chocolate). The bitterness is a big reason why. It leaves this amazing aftertaste that I can never get enough of.

Or Mullvad Browser, which is just the Tor Browser without Tor.

There’s also IronFox on Android which is more similar to LibreWolf than MV Browser.

Not having fully functional Vulkan is going to make gaming on Linux a real pain. WINED3D (DX to OpenGL) works well enough nowadays, but DXVK and vkd3d-proton (DX to Vulkan) is where the real magic is.

With Vulkan, very low level programming is possible, which means translation layers and HLE emulators benefit a lot in terms of accuracy and speed.

I would strongly recommend upgrading your hardware if at all possible, not just because of performance, but because of up-to-date Vulkan driver support. AMD GPUs work best on Linux. Avoid Nvidia if you can, but if you literally can’t get anything else, it will also work. Modern Intel should also be fine, but not as mature as AMD.

If you really want to run games on these computers, you will need to force enable WINED3D via an environment variable, either in Steam, or in whatever launcher you’re using.

There is a fork of Proton designed specifically for old GPUs. I would use this if you absolutely cannot upgrade: https://github.com/pythonlover02/Proton-Sarek

Don’t forget everyone’s favorite massgravel script

“I don’t want to abolish government. I just want to have the ability to abolish the government on a whim. Whether the government just so happens to be abolished or not after that is up to the direction of the wind and whether the sun gets in my eyes.”

Have you tried using a US English locale? Most AI models are trained mostly in English, so not sure if your locale being Dutch is affecting that.
