Mao gaps the field
  • The undemocratic dissolution of the Soviet Union seems to be visible in the graph, on the World line.

  • Western doublespeak compilation
  • Expat / immigrant

  • I think that religion/spirituality and socialism can coexist
  • I'm an atheist but I think we should respect people's religious beliefs. If someone is a good socialist then it shouldn't matter if they are religious or not, being anti-religious will only make religious people avoid socialism for no real reason, we don't get anything by being anti-religious.

    I mean, of course we shouldn't let religious institutions have power as they are usually quite reactionary, but the religious beliefs of people should be respected in my opinion.

    Not sure what community I should put this, are stray cats urban wildlife?

    I'm going to study social integration

    I like helping people, and I think that due to my circumstances I would be able to understand more and be more empathetic towards the people I help once I (hopefully) complete my studies.

    I hope working as a social integrator will make me feel fulfilled. Wish me luck.

    On a r/thedeprogram post joking about some war criminal being fat

    Someone correctly pointing out that calling people fat is bad is downvoted, and someone called "literally_himmler1" replying with a nerd emoji is upvoted.

    I am going to commit sudoku.

    Preferred Software Forge in the Global South?
  • I half-remember reading somewhere that GitHub isn't available in China but I'm not sure. OpenKylin, a Chinese Linux distro, seems to have it's repository hosted on gitee

  • Did you play Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic?
  • I have played it a bit before, but I left the game since it was too hard to get into 😅

    Learning curve is vertical

  • Do you think that organizing support for unhoused people would be a good proposal to make to the party I'm in?

    I'm in the PCPE, and they seem to focus a lot on educating and radicalizing people.

    That is important of course, but I thought that organizing material support for people that needs it would not only actually improve the lives of people but also show the general population that "the commies" aren't some bloodthirsty monsters but instead actual people that want a better world.

    What do you think? I think it's a good idea.

    Interest in a Vintage Story server
  • I am definitely interested. I've had an itch for a multiplayer semi realistic civbuilding game since I started playing in the stoneworks Minecraft server. I've searched everywhere but I've never encountered a Minecraft server that satisfied the itch. This doesn't necessarily seem like it will go in a civbuilding direction but it still might scratch the itch anyway.

    I've tried hosting a vintage story server on an sbc before and I'm pretty sure I saw somewhere in the command line the game going something like "no players are online, stopping clock". I'm sure it wasn't worded anywhere near like that but you get the idea, the game could already be doing the stopping time when no one is online thing by default.

  • Blasphemous is a game made in Spain, I've heard good things about it although I haven't played it.

    It's a 2D souls like metroidvania.

    Prioritise RAM or processor?
  • I think nowadays 8GB of RAM doesn't really make the cut anymore depending on the workload, but you should keep in mind that upgrading a CPU will most likely force you to upgrade your motherboard as well, since by that time there will be newer CPUs that your motherboard won't support. Upgrading RAM in the future will be less expensive as you can just use new RAM sticks alongside the ones you already have though it will probably affect performance if they are mismatched.

    I think that having a fast CPU now will definitely be better on the long run, but that's just my opinion. There are probably other comrades more knowledgeable than me.

  • Been trying Void Linux

    I'm liking it a lot, it's very barebones which is something I was looking for, and the package manager's command to install stuff is kinda hard to remember but does its job well. This might be my new daily driver now.

    Only issue is that since it's not as popular as other distros finding information specific to Void Linux might be inconvenient.

    Did any of you look into Void Linux? Do you like it?

    It seems there exist a small amount of gamers who are okay
  • Seems to have been already nuked, or at least I'm getting a 404 with the link provided.

  • Are kids even treated like humans?

    So I've been thinking for a while about this subject, and I finally decided to make a post about this some time after I saw a YouTuber say what I put on the title of this post.

    Thing is, I've noticed that very often young people and especially kids are treated as lesser beings, like if they were not humans beings with problems and lives of their own but just an annoyance that people have to keep up with.

    I remember when I was a kid and I wanted to cross a zebra crossing cars would just pass by without stopping more often than not. Now that I'm an adult they stop pretty much every time. I suspect it was because they didn't want to stop for someone they consider to be lesser than them.

    Also, a lot of people seem to think that being a kid means that you just play videogames or whatever all day, but don't these people remember when they were kids? I sure do. Going to school has been the worst thing I've ever had to endure. The only difference with having a job is that you don't get paid.

    Anybody else feel so annoyed when western leftists say "It WaSn'T rEaL sOcIaLiSm" despite the massive evidence to the contrary?
  • Primarily China. Some western leftists can't understand that having markets doesn't mean a country isn't socialist.

  • have any of you had really weird or strange dreams?
  • I remember having a dream where Kim Jong Un visited me in my house. At some point he mentioned that he was hungry and I thought "oh shit I'm such a bad host I didn't get anything to eat" and then I straight up gave him a fucking banana to eat.

    One of the funniest dreams I've ever had.

  • Pigeon chilling on a fountain

    A group of people approached the fountain to get water and the pigeon did not seem scared at all. I think I remember them closing their eyes for long periods of time, I assume as a sign of relaxation caused by the relatively cool water during the heat wave in Spain.

    I wish this pigeon luck and happiness.

    Games @lemmygrad.ml Al-Andalusian @lemmygrad.ml

    Anyone else plays Vintage Story?

    In case anyone doesn't know, it's basically a survival game with realistic mechanics. It takes a lot of inspiration from Minecraft and more specifically the TerraFirma mod.

    I was wondering if anyone else plays it, or at least know the game exists. It has some rough edges sometimes but it is very fun.

    Just told my mother that I'm a communist, she took it well

    I think that hiding my political views hinders my ability to organize, so from now on I will try to stop hiding.

    I told her through WhatsApp because I'm not good at face to face confrontations.

    Not sure how the rest of my family will take it.

    Thanks for reading 😊

    if you want to have some quick laughs, check out this liberal crying about us lol CW: comm linked has sinophobic depiction of Xi Jinping (you know the one)
  • The moderator of that community makes like 99% of the posts.

    That is some dedication to being wrong.

  • Being gender neutral in Spanish

    In Spanish everything is gendered, so being gender neutral is not as easy as for example English where you can just use 'they' or 'them'.

    Sometimes people use the 'e' instead of the o/a (which often mark the gender of words, for example gato/gata, cat in Spanish) but it can't always be used and it just sounds really weird for a lot of people, though that might just be because it is barely used.

    The other way to be gender neutral that I know is to say both the male and female versions of the word you are trying to make gender neutral, for example "trabajadores y trabajadoras" (workers[M] and workers[F]) but it's also not ideal as you have to say one of the genders first and it is pretty inconvenient to have to do that every time you refer to a group of people that is not guaranteed to be composed of one gender only.

    Anyway thanks for reading my post and I hope I find out about a better way to be gender neutral in Spanish.

    At least in Spanish there is never doubt how shit is pronounced, unlike in English. (Fuck English all my homies hate the English language)

    Pledge Allegiance to Our Flag!
  • I doubt there were bad intentions in the post, even though it might be understood like that

  • Pledge Allegiance to Our Flag!
  • I think the downvoters misunderstood something, not sure

  • I've been trying out Gentoo, but imma hop to another distro

    Everything just feels way more complicated than it needs to be.

    I tried installing Openshot (a video editor) but I couldn't figure out how to fix the error it spits out when I try to emerge it.

    I will now try out Arch and hope I don't need a master's degree to install packages.

    Edit: Gentoo isn't the first distro I've tried, I've been daily driving Debian for more than a year and just wanted to try it out since I heard good things about it. And also I didn't really need to use Openshot, I just wanted some video editor and arbitrarily chose to install that one.

    Also I guess I will just stick with Debian since apparently Arch is also complicated.

    Employment @lemmygrad.ml Al-Andalusian @lemmygrad.ml

    Just got my first wage

    5,5€ an hour according to my calculations.

    The first hour of work every work day (4 a week) is used to cover the bus tickets and buying breakfast during work.

    At least my workplace isn't too exigent with the work I do (since they get my work literally for free lol, the state pays my wage) and they let me go home half an hour early.

    My mother wants to kick out a tenant, how to stop her?

    So my mother is a landlord, and she wants to kick out a tenant that isn't paying rent.

    I asked her if she was seriously going to kick someone out to the streets, and she said that the tenant has family and they could seek help from them.

    My mother threatened the tenant saying that if they don't give back the key, she would go to the civil guard.

    I need some ideas about what to tell my mother to try to stop her from putting someone on the streets. Any help is appreciated.

    Employment @lemmygrad.ml Al-Andalusian @lemmygrad.ml

    I think my job is just company subsidies

    I'm pretty sure my salary comes from the government and not the company. It's supposed to be a remunerated internship (I think it translates to that) and we are told that there doesn't exist an employer-employee relationship between the company and us.

    So I'm pretty sure the company is just getting free labour.

    Also it's been like a month and a half and I haven't seen a cent of my salary 😑

    Should we make a pinned post in here that explains the basics of Linux?

    I think it could be very convenient. I can make the post if you want, just comment here what you think the post should have and I'll try to put something together.

    Edit: It seems that @[email protected] is already working on one so this won't be necessary lmao

    I survived this through the power of friendship.

    That noodle you see there is Yugoslavia.

    I had given up when I saw that I was being pushed back on all fronts and I lost most of my factories... But when my borders went w I just... held.

    And then time passed. My allies were supplying me with much needed weapons the whole time and later they ended up liberating my land.

    The power of friendship, comrades.
