  • Yeah,man. Can you believe those carpenters that still want to buy hammers from big tool? Our federation of unemployed navel gazers has built at least three hammer replacements that consist of a rock attached to a thick stick with Elmer’s glue, but they just wanna throw their money at the big tool companies. I even told them that our next iteration will have one side of the rock flattened for better hammering, but they keep going on about “ergonomics”, and “effectiveness”.

    I swear, I think all the open source people see software as toys and only as toys. For those of us who actually use it to do things, it’s a tool, and it needs to work like the tools I’ve been using at work for more decades than I want to own up to.











  • All I’m getting here is that you don’t understand the actual meaning of a lot of the words you’re using, and that you uncritically accept Imperialist framing of everything.

    China isn’t practicing “unfettered capitalism”, because their economy is under the control of the people through the Communist Party. What they are practicing is a form of socialism, the middle state between capitalism and communism which includes parts of both.

    China did produce more billionaires than the US last year. Developing economies tend to do that faster and more often than stale ones. China also sentenced more billionaires to death for exploitation last year than the US has ever, but that little data point doesn’t fit with your CIA approved narrative.

    “Supplying arms to war torn countries” is that Fedspeak for “giving oppressed nations and resistance groups the ability to fight back against Imperialism”?

    China is not an “authoritarian Oligarchy”, you’re thinking of the United States.

    China is a robust democracy where people have direct control, so parties in the Western sense are unnecessary and undesirable.

  • Mayonnaise on grilled cheese is an abomination.

    For the absolute best grilled cheese ever just put sliced cheese between two slices of bread, drop 2 tbsp (28.5g for those of you not using freedom units) of butter in a pan just hot enough to make it sizzle, put your sandwich in the melted butter and flip after 3 minutes.

    Edit: got so worked up about the mayo abomination I forgot what I came here to say. My food hack is self rising flour in anything that used the flour, salt, baking powder trio. Easier, quicker, and no chance of messing up the ratio and getting crackers instead of biscuits.


  • authoritarian apologists.

    Authoritarianism is a useless term created by Liberals to obfuscate the differences between Socialism and Fascism.

    Russia is a vaguely protofascist Oligarchy, that’s kind of true. They only deserve support in so far as their actions weaken imperial hegemony.

    China is not at all fascist and it’s laughable that you suggest it is. Unless your definition of Fascism is “when the government says there are things I’m not allowed to do”…

    I’m sure all the slaves the CPC freed from the Lamas agree, as do the people who suffered under British Imperialism in HK. Also, Taiwanese separatists are a shrinking minority, Taiwan is part of China, everyone agrees with that, the KMT only disagree on who is the rightful government.

    Try reading some news sources from outside the US/EU empire, you’ll learn a lot.
