This is what democracy looks like, and it should be respected.
Why should it be respected? Should we respect it any more than the US democracy which elected a thug? A system isn’t automatically respectable just because it’s one type of democracy.
I can see some unofficial XFCE guides for getting .webp thumbnails working, but I haven’t seen a Mint one so use them at your own risk. (Works by default in Cinnamon)
While not always relevant, drag and drop sometimes works for certain apps. I find it useful sometimes.
and most of them are globalists and most of the globalists wear tiny hats
That’s not the situation, and using codewords doesn’t hide that you’re referring to jewish conspiracy theories. Western governments aren’t supporting the zionist regime because they’re occupied by ‘globalists’ or because they’re jewish. Jews frequently are anti-zionist and zionists frequently aren’t jewish. Governments support the regime because it’s tactically useful for their imperialism in the Middle East, which is rich in resources and an important land trade hub, among other things. The US especially benefits from having a strong military power in the region to threaten the surrounding countries.
As for globalism, that’s really just the inevitable end result of capitalism once it can no longer grow in its own country, it must seek other markets to expand into or exploit for labor, either through military force (e.g. Opium Wars for forced drug trade, war in Iraq for oil acquisition), economic pressure, cultural power or diplomatic power. Global imperialism is driven by economics, whether leaders feel like conspiring or not is largely irrelevant to it because at the end of the day they can’t survive by ignoring economics, by material factors, which demand them to either give up their position or expand into foreign markets globally.
I’ve conquered the tabs demon (cleared on exit, anything actually important goes in a proper to-do app) and the downloads folder demon (…mostly). But will I ever conquer the Inbox imp?
It’s a common and well-understood word, you’re completely correct, and really any word is a valid word, although it’s pretty clear the teacher was trying to teach formal English habits (which unfortunately can be useful to know) and it ain’t that.
You’re not just gonna leave us hanging without a link, right? …right?
It’s a vibe, not an actual analysis of political economy.
People don’t magically change their worldview because they have more money, but a person’s economic relationship (e.g. owning a business, or being an employee) will guide their class interests - someone like Rowling who primarily makes money from ownership rather than work will materially benefit from conservative economic interests. And since capitalism rewards profit over social contribution, those of the business owners who don’t care about other people enough to sacrifice profitability are (generally) more able to build wealth, so there are more right-wing types in mega-wealthy circles, not simply because they have wealth (this also includes those feigning left-wing ideals, like rainbow capitalism and philanthrocapitalism, to exploit real social movements for reputation and profit).
This Wikipedia page gives a quick rundown of how a person’s politics and their role in the economy intertwine, although it’s probably more useful to learn the concept through pamphlets or books which provide historical evidence, examples and related concepts. My recommendation - Not pointlessly academic or dated, relatively general, has nice and neat chapters for specific questions.
You also have to remember these people have a voice because we give it to them.
In some ways, sure, but these people also have a voice because owning-class mass media gives it to them. You can literally buy a figurative microphone. Pay for a platform. We don’t assume people with money are worth listening too, they’re simply the ones talking on every channel.
I don’t know, but my guess is it might still be able to detect some cross-platform malware signs and detect malware intended for Windows on Linux machines (e.g. I can download a PDF or .docx that is harmless on my machine, but if I reupload and a Windows user downloads it, I’ve spread malware regardless). IIRC ClamAV is sometimes used to scan attachments on an email server, often looking for Windows exploits being sent through the server.
The key word in that comment was “symbols”. The Nazi SS aren’t esoteric knowledge.

There’s an infamous article on Foreign Policy about how /leftypol/ managed to do that with 8chan’s infamous /pol/ board, and I recall some people saying it got them out of GamerGate (a right-wing recruitment pipeline). In fact, I remember hearing there’s some lineage of that board from 4chan’s /lit/erature board. So there’s certainly truth that users can often be directed away from incel and alt-right spheres into something more social and constructive.
At the end of the day, 4chan, if taken as a whole rather than just the political boards, is largely a popular hub for alienated nerds (even the /fit/ness board). Not sure how much that’s stayed true over the past 10 years, but screencaps like this show it’s still a complicated place despite the edgy surface.
I think that if the US government is overhauled, guaranteed UBI would be key to allowing for effective strikes.
In the meantime, we use voluntary strike funds for a similar effect.
I care more about where they are spent. My local government is spending it far better than my federal government. If it was half my income and was spent in ways that lower the cost of living and improve quality of life, then I’d have no problem with that.
If I get a tax cut, I think, cool, at least I choose where this money goes, because I actually do give some to non-profits that benefit society. Tax amounts are not something which determines how I vote, I gloss over it in the news, it’s just incidental that the anti-worker parties want to raise my taxes and spend them in worse ways.
The government just says “ok, strike.”
Got any examples? Because what’s first coming to mind for large modern strikes is the train strike that the Biden government explicitly outlawed. (before the environmental disaster in West Palestine, Ohio)
I knew people still under 30 who put it on a playlist because they liked it and didn’t know it was a meme.
Great feature! One of my concerns when I dipped my toes into ComfyUI was that I struggled to find ways of avoiding spaghetti layouts. Tools like this to neaten and abstract the workflow can do wonders (although I hope it’s done in a smart, clear way that doesn’t confuse newcomers by hiding the important parts from them)
