everybody should be able to live a good life and do cool stuff for themselves and for others.

The problem with "culture war is a distraction from class war" is that "culture war" isn't an abstraction and the people harmed by institutional bigotry are every bit as real as the people harmed by wealth and income hoarding.

In fact, they're often the same people.

Culture war IS class war.

In a 2 party system where one option is nazis and the other is nazis but worst, if you vote for the former that makes you a nazi.
I told my partner I was fluent in French on our first date. Five years later, we're moving to Lyon for his job. I've spent £2,000 on intensive tutoring in the last three weeks. I'm currently at 'The cat is under the table' level. I am terrified.
By FAR the most infuriating thing about LLM-generated code is WHY NOT STRAIGHT TO ASSEMBLY goddamit?!?!? Compiler with extra steps coal burning garbage.

"How in the year 2026 can racism, sexism, even fascism be ascendant?"

Capitalism is in crisis. Climate pressures, mature markets, and rival economies are making growth harder to come by so capitalism is leaning harder into its levers of exploitation and division.

At the same time the emphasis is shifting from growth to consolidation. As the pie gets increasingly difficult to enlarge, the oligarchs want to secure as much of that pie for themselves as they can.

Hey punkrockers and rudegirls'n'boys,

FINAL EDIT: We've been making good progress with EVi! We've fully settled on version 9.1.0 with no AI code, we're on IRC @ #evi irc.oftc.net, we've gained a lots of popularity and we've been working on fixing tests and removing platforms that are deemed exotic with other cleanups. Thank you to everyone who has supported us this week!!!

As age-verification bullshit becomes more common, I am determined to simply not participate in any service or video game that requires it. The day I see the prompt, is the day I leave.

Maybe the government’s hope is that I stop participating in society, but I assure you that I will not. I’ll find or build alternatives, and refuse to comply with bad law.

I hope you will, too.

And as a silver lining, maybe the weird internet we end up creating as a result will suck less than the current one.

Newsom is a nazi. You’ve been warned.
