Around the 29 minute mark Peterson criticizes Marx and Engel's for assuming that workers would magically become more productive once they took over.
This actually happened historically, most of the actually effective productivity tricks work places use now were developed by Stakhanovites.

Class A NATO and Class B NATO.
Class A - Germanic NATO.
Class B - Slavic NATO.
When there would be an actual attack on NATO Class B, it doesn't mean the Class A (Germanic) will go and send their soldiers to fight the attacker.
You will not read about this in official documents and statements, but this is the reality.
If for example, Putler would attack the baltics, we might see Poland, Romania and maybe Finland and Sweden, fighting.
NATO is a paper tiger, Putler is already doing hybrid war against baltics, Poland, Romania, but NATO is not reacting at all, they don't respond with hybrid war against Russia.

The American question is: how does a settler-imperialist nation transform itself into a decolonized socialist commonwealth without either reproducing the imperial form or fragmenting into balkanized enclaves that allow capital to reconstitute, while resolving the contradictions of internal colonization and liberating its external colonies, therefore using the empire's collapse to accelerate material conditions to enable the global revolution?

>I love my country but it does not yet exist editionThe American question is: how does a settler-imperialist nation transform itself into a decolonized socialist commonwealth without either reproducing the imperial form or fragmenting into balkanized enclaves that allow capital to reconstitute, while resolving the contradictions of internal colonization and liberating its external colonies, therefore using the empire's collapse to accelerate material conditions to enable the global revolution?

NH-01 DSA candidate Heath Howard suspends campaign
Here in NH, a pro-Palestine DSA candidate, Heath Howard, who is also a disabled comrade, was hounded out of the primary race by progressive influencers for "transphobia". He openly said Israel has no right to exist as a state on WMUR, our local state news channel. Could it be any more obvious this was a coordinated smear campaign?

The 2003 US invasion of Iraq was arguably one of the worst human rights atrocities of the past 50 years. Over 1 million Iraqi CIVILIANS were killed. If that's not a low key genocide similar to Gaza I don't know what is. But it's even worse knowing this war was based entirely on a gigantic lie (a "noble lie" if you will) by some of the slimiest, most diabolical villains ever known to American politics. Yes, Dick Cheney, Colin Powell and Donald Rumsfeld are dead and rotting in hell. But George W Bush, Paul Wolfowitz and Douglas Feith are still alive. Neocons Bill Kristol, Robert Kagan and John Bolton who were the top dogs in PNAC (Project for a New American Century), which called for massive military spending and preemptive attacks (also a "New Pearl Harbor" which conveniently happened on 9/11) are also still alive. WHY HAVEN'T ANY OF THEM EVER BEEN CHARGED AS WAR CRIMINALS?????
The Straussian cabal is very real and still holds loads of ideological power within American politics. Many Neocons from the Bush II era have now since become Democrats and publicly supported Kamala Harris over Trump on the basis Trump wasn't Neocon enough. These people have names and addresses and have to face some kind of legal penalties so the world can finally have closure and the Neocon war criminals can finally reap what they sowed.

Am I crazy for thinking this?
One of my core political positions and personal values since I was a literal child is that any kind of violence and coercion is way worse when accepted and normalized or state sponsored. I can accept rape, murder, and torture as facts of life that are impossible to eradicate as long as the public is strongly opposed to it and the state cracks down on it. What disturbs and enrages me to the point of wanting to hurt people is when people become accepting of it and even worse when the state starts practicing it. A cruel criminal needs to be turned around and the community needs to be protected from him. A government oficiall that authorizes torture and degradation of a person ought to be shot on sight. The visceral reaction i get from normalized barbarity is so strong that its almost knee-jerk. I wonder if there is anyone else who thinks like this or if im a genuinely insane.

> If you want to be really esoteric, Marxism is advanced feudalism.
No. Marxism is not advanced feudalism. Feudalism is predicated on aristocrat-serf class relations, whereas Marxism is predicated on the elimination of class relations. On what planet could one possibly come to the "esoteric" conclusion that Marxism is "advanced feudalism?" Even assuming this is inspired by that dumb pop-Economics book from Yanis Varoufakis (Technoefeudalism) that is not even his hypothesis. His hypothesis is that the capitalist countries are becoming Technofeudal, not the AES countries. I am honestly baffled by this take and thought it deserved its own thread, because I did not want to derail the thread I found it in. Where are people getting this idea? Is there a common source for this revision or is it arising out of pure vibes?

All societal systems that have existed since humans became sedentary roughly 10,000 years ago are fascist. Before that, for nearly 95 percent of our species’ 300,000-year history, humanity lived in hunter-gatherer or forager societies. These communities had no permanent hierarchies, no inherited positions of power, no state institutions and no ruling class at all: decisions were made through collective consensus, and people with particular experience or skill held only temporary authority rooted in mutual respect, never the power to coerce others. They were entirely classless and egalitarian, with land, tools and hunting grounds held as common property, food distributed according to need, and no exploitation of one group’s labour by another. There was no organised state violence, no standing armies and no large-scale warfare between communities; internal conflicts were resolved through mediation rather than repression. Gender relations were broadly equitable too, as women’s foraging work supplied 60 to 80 percent of most groups’ food supply, earning them equal social standing. Groups were small and flexible, usually made up of 20 to 50 related people. This form of organisation is known as primitive communism: the default way humans lived for almost all of our history, before sedentism gave rise to the fascist systems that have defined every society ever since.

IN HONOR OF LEADER ANTOUN SAADEH
The man who was martyred 77 years ago killed by an overall conspiracy was not an average person . He was the man who was inspired and had an insight , and who positioned himself from where he could secure the future of his people. He is among those who will not be satisfied by merely existing . His whole being and existence revolved around his people. His name is Antoun Saadeh called also the Leader , a title he earned with everything that goes with it . Not only he was fought and set up by the colonialist predators and their local clientele in the mid of the previous century, but after his martyrdom , all about him was obscured and camouflaged and even buried . He presented a real threat because people felt affinity with him and trusted him and were inspired by him . He was the man who lead the Renaissance proper to our area after WWI and WWII , when the region was meeting so many challenges that range from identity to independence . This was when the Ottoman Empire collapsed, and the colonialists were starting dividing the empire among themselves, and also creating the vicious state of israel , and planting it in the heart of the Arab world.
Leader Saadeh immediately felt the threat , and decided that the people of this area should claim what is theirs, and before they do this, they should know their identity and find out who they are and the common ground which they share or their natural belonging and natural habitat, and accordingly, claim what is theirs before they fall a prey to the conspiracies that seek to divide the area according to the colonial ambitions .. Religion can no more be a Reference thought leader Saadeh after the fall of the Ottoman Empire because the inhabitants of this area are multi cultural , multi religious and multi lingual , and there is need to define what a nation is in all its variety , and to defend this nation and its borders, and secure its sovereignty and unity and independence . It was an attempt at preventing that the identity of the people be lost for ever and an attempt at retrieving this identity .
The people should retrieve their identity – thought Saadeh- Greater Syria being the nation to which those belong , and it is located in what has been known as the Fertile Crescent , in the heart of the Arab World , being also an intrinsic part of this world . Saadeh knew from experience and from his life in Latin America in its attempt at breaking loose from the colonizer that freedom is NOT an individual Issue but a National Issue , and only a Free Nation can grant Freedom to its people and to the individuals and not the other way . No doubt , Leader Saadeh was deeply inspired by Simone Bolivar and other nationalists from Latin America . As a Nationalist , he was wrongly associated with Hitler or with the fascists , and this was a demonization campaign that targeted him and wanted to harm his spotless reputation as a spotless leader and tarnish his image and distort his message.
All what he professed was built on historical evidence and historical facts , and he did not invent anything when he said : SYRIA (meaning Greater Syria) BELONGS TO THE SYRIANS, AND THE SYRIANS ARE AN INTEGRAL NATION . It was a Truth that he discovered . For this, he had to pay his life , because what he discovered and called for went against all the colonialist schemes that had for purpose to tear apart this region and set Religions against one another and create the usurping state of israel about which Saadeh warned very early as a real immanent threat, as he warned against the Gulf countries role in making the creation of israel possible .
It is now that we are discovering that every word he said was true . He called for unity solidarity and above all Ethics . The essence of the Nation is Ethics, . His message did not remain unheard, and his Party – the Syrian Social Nationalist Party- was the largest in number, and so many people rallied around him from all categories and classes because he represented the Spirit of the Nation . The predators of course who wanted to carry on their vicious scheme of Sykes Picot and Balfour conspired against him , and their agents delivered him to the local Lebanese Authorities who sentenced him to death without trial and executed him at the dawn of June the 8th 1949 . He died full of dignity for he never feared death because he knew that the Nation will survive him, and he did not have the least doubt about it .
He had foreseen the future when he said : I see ranks in perfect order and harmony proceeding towards the goal , and this is what we are seeing now in Hizbullah who is the real expression of the aspirations of leader Saadeh , one of the most honorable leaders that this Nation has ever witnessed, and who used to say LIFE IS ONLY A DIGNIFIED STAND . It is this dignity that we see in the Resistance Leadership and Freedom Fighters , and if the Resistance has an Origin , no doubt that Leader Saadeh is one of these origins despite the fact that he was a secular leader of a secular Party where Religion is a private individual matter and a personal Relation to God His secularism was never anti Religion but was anti colonialist . It is in the Resistance that the real message of Saadeh finds life , and this is something that no one can deny , and it is the Resistance that qualified to carry this message whereby Leader Saadeh’s vision turned out to be true.

Zvi Sukkot, a member of Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich’s Religious Zionism party, was filmed smashing the Palestinian Martyrs' Monument in the village of Madama, south of Nablus, with a sledgehammer. In a video posted to Facebook, Sukkot said the memorial commemorated two Palestinians who had killed Israelis and argued that it could not be allowed to remain. “We must take it down,” he said, adding that he wanted the memorial destroyed because children growing up in the village and passing it would be inspired to become “martyrs” themselves.

I think there's a convergence right now between the Sorelian conception of political "myths" and the prominence of GenAI slop, especially on The Right. I'm sure most of you have noticed by now that Generative AI has been almost endemic to Right-Wing political movements, even while Data Centers in particular are still grossly unpopular. I don't believe this convergence is intentional, in fact I doubt that most on the political Right even know who Sorel was, but rather I believe the Right has intuited some of Sorel's work without actually reading it. Though entirely unintentional, the specter of Sorelianism has only become more relevant to modern political disputes.
To begin, let's first discuss what Sorel means by a "Myth". He asserts his thesis in his Magnum Opus, "Reflections on Violence" here:
>“In the course of these studies, I have established something so simple that I did not believe it had to be emphasized: men who participate in great social movements represent their immediate action in the form of images of battles assuring the triumph of their cause. I proposed calling these constructions myths, the knowledge of which is so important for the historian: the syndicalist general strike and Marx’s catastrophic revolution are myths. I have given as remarkable examples of myths those which were constructed by early Christianity, the Reformation, the French Revolution and by Mazzini’s followers. I wanted to show that it is not necessary to try to analyze such systems of images in the same way that one breaks down something into its elements; that they should be taken as a whole and as historical forces; that it is necessary above all to keep from comparing the accomplished facts with the images which men had adopted prior to action.”
<Georges Sorel, Reflections on Violence, Page 20, Cambridge Texts Edition
The emphasis on the word "images" is my own, as I feel that's directly relevant to the tidal wave of AI slop we see coming from The Right Wing today. Now I should mention that though Sorel uses the term "images" he doesn't necessarily mean a literal picture or painting. The images Sorel refers to could exist as ethereally as in the mind's eye. What matters for the sake of politics is that these images are conceptualized collectively and depict triumphant battles against an enemy.
To try to break this down simply; Sorel believed that myths provided a crucial motive force, that regardless of their relationship to the actual reality of the conflict, they motivate people to become partisans within that conflict. For example, one such myth he references was that of Early Christianity. Historically, Christianity existed in the space of an End Times movement, several early Christians earnestly believed Christ was coming and that by dying as martyrs they would be rewarded in the hereafter. Indeed, contemporary Roman sources would even occasionally remark that Christians would willingly turn themselves in to authorities in hopes of achieving martyrdom. It doesn't matter that the myth Christians conceptualized for themselves didn't literally happen, as Christ didn't return in their lifetimes to usher in the Last Judgement. Rather that myth motivated Christians to proselytize, to suffer martyrdom, and ultimately led to the Christianization of the Roman Empire.
It was important to Sorel that images depict conflict to be elevated to the status of "myth"; images which merely depict perfect or idealized society, Sorel thought, merely indulged in Utopianism which would lead to reformism.
>“As long as there are no myths accepted by the masses, one may go on talking of revolts indefinitely without ever provoking any revolutionary movement; this is what gives such importance to the general strike and renders it so odious to socialists who are afraid of revolution; they do all they can to shake the confidence felt by the workers in the preparations they are making for the revolution; and in order to succeed in this they cast ridicule on the idea of the general strike, which alone has a value as a motive force. One of the chief means employed by them is to represent it as a utopia; this is easy enough, as there are very few myths which are perfectly free from any utopian element.
>The revolutionary myths which exist at the present time are almost pure; they allow us to understand the activity, the sentiments, and the ideas of the masses as they prepare themselves to enter on a decisive struggle; they are not descriptions of things but expressions of a will to act. A utopia is, on the contrary, an intellectual product; it is the work of theorists who, after observing and discussing the facts, seek to establish a model to which they can compare existing societies in order to estimate the amount of good and evil they contain; it is a combination of imaginary institutions having sufficient analogies to real institutions for the jurist to be able to reason about them; it is a construction which can be broken into parts and of which certain pieces have been shaped in such a way that they can (with a few alterations) be fitted into future legislation. — Whilst contemporary myths lead men to prepare themselves for a combat which will destroy the existing state of things, the effect of utopias has always been to direct men’s minds towards reforms which can be brought about by patching up the system; it is not surprising then that so many believers in utopias were able to develop into able statesmen when they had acquired greater experience of political life. — A myth cannot be refuted since it is, at bottom, identical to the convictions of a group, being the expression of these convictions in the language of movement; and it is, in consequence, unanalysable into parts which could be placed on the plane of historical descriptions. A utopia, on the other hand, can be discussed like any other social constitution; the spontaneous movements it presupposes can be compared with those actually observed in the course of history, and we can in this way evaluate their verisimilitude; it is possible to refute it by showing that the economic system on which it has been made to rest is incompatible with the necessary conditions of modern production.”
<Georges Sorel, Reflections on Violence, Page 28, Cambridge Edition
That was a lot of words, but in essence: myths prepare a movement for battle and encourage them to do conflict, they're taken "as a whole" rather than being broken into constituent parts. An image of Socialists leading a battalion of tanks towards reactionary holdouts doesn't propose legislation nor can it be broken down into an analysis on mechanized warfare, it must be taken as a whole. Utopias, by contrast, are analyzed on a policy-basis. The very origin of the term "Utopia" in political theory relates back to Saint Thomas More's book, and to this very day people had dissected his idealized society and critiqued his policy proposals.
Back to modernity: as generative AI has been refined and widely distributed, it hasn't been adopted by the "mainstream" of political and cultural opinion, rather it has found purchase in groups which can be coined "cultural insurgencies". It's not mainstream liberal thought that embraced AI image generation, but "populist" right wing movements, freaks, perverts, and the detritus of failed social movements. In the face of rapidly secularizing generations, Evangelical Christians have embraced AI images of Jesus coming to earth to judge the secular world they despise. In the absence of sexual gratification, glassy-eyed internet shut ins use AI to give "woke" video game characters bigger tits or a fatter ass or doll-like facial features. Political orgs like the AfD in Germany or MAGA in America gleefully use AI to paint the world as they perceive it: a Manichean battle between foreign invaders, their effeminate compradors in the West, and chisel-jawed "alpha males" opposing them.
As these movements have claimed power in the political arena and shown their utter inability to govern, it appears they've grown to rely more and more on Sorelian style myths to shore up their support. As Trump's grown older and more incontinent, his most fervent supporters depict him as more virile, more muscular, and more competent than ever. As the Iran war proves itself to be a bungle, the Right Wing internet is awash in depictions of Trump as a "military man", Trump in Uniform, Trump ordering missile strikes, Trump flying fighter jets. What this has done is created a floor of unshakeable faith, around 38% of the country which approves of him, whereas George W. Bush eventually collapsed to 25% support by the end of his second term.
Liberals are hoping, perhaps naively, that there will be some "wake up call" for Trump. That a Bush 2 moment may happen where Trump sees his support completely collapse. That America will grow "tired" of populism and submit to the rule of dull technocrats, but as Sorel himself said:
>The professors of the little science are really difficult to satisfy. They assert very loudly that they will only admit into thought ideas that are clear and distinct; – as a matter of fact, this is a rule which is insufficient for purposes of action, for we do nothing great without the help of warmly coloured and sharply defined images which absorb the whole of our attention;
<Georges Sorel, Reflections on Violence, Page 140
A more obvious collapse of the Trump administration would not cause a collapse in his supporters, but rather it would be preceded with even more wild and manic images presaging a final battle with "communist liberals" and "the deep state". The manic distribution of images would be followed by an even greater upswing of political violence. Here is where AI in particular becomes a danger, because what it lacks in quality it compensates with quantity.
Consider how the brain is "tricked" into thinking enough images moving fast enough give the impression of motion. What AI allows is the impression of a certain conflict. In seconds, Right Wingers can have hundreds of photographs that look real enough to impose ideas on the general public. If a person scrolls TikTok or Facebook or Twitter long enough and sees hundreds of AI generated images of London teeming with Muslims, or Blue-Haired Transgenders teaching school kids, or BLM protesters attacking white people, then even if he can recognize on a basic level that the image in front of him is fake, they could blur and coagulate in his subconscious, plant a seed of fascist myth that the Right will meticulously grow. Even if one or two or three images are recognized as fake, if someone sees the same myth depicted day in and day out, hundreds of times, the possibility remains that they'll believe it on some level, they won't be stuck with any one particular image, but THE image of a battle between "western civilization" and "brown hordes".
So how does the Left counter this? In theory it could try to pre-emptively flood the zone: post more AI than ever of Right Wingers being cannibals, being perverts, freaks, "bad" in some way. Whether it could counter-signal to an extent that would obfuscate Right Wing narrative building is unknown. Alternatively it could try to specialize: quality over quantity. Create such striking images of class war that they hold attention longer than the billion images of AI slop the Right puts out. Regardless of what "The Left" broadly chooses, I think it needs to reckon with AI images as something beyond "quaint", but an insidious danger.
Sorel in the Age of AI
I was thinking of making this thread ages ago, but I couldn't find the right words. I'm still not sure if I'm saying everything I want to here, but I figured at the very least this can create some interesting discussion.I think there's a convergence right now between the Sorelian conception of political "myths" and the prominence of GenAI slop, especially on The Right. I'm sure most of you have noticed by now that Generative AI has been almost endemic to Right-Wing political movements, even while Data Centers in particular are still grossly unpopular. I don't believe this convergence is intentional, in fact I doubt that most on the political Right even know who Sorel was, but rather I believe the Right has intuited some of Sorel's work without actually reading it. Though entirely unintentional, the specter of Sorelianism has only become more relevant to modern political disputes.
To begin, let's first discuss what Sorel means by a "Myth". He asserts his thesis in his Magnum Opus, "Reflections on Violence" here:
>“In the course of these studies, I have established something so simple that I did not believe it had to be emphasized: men who participate in great social movements represent their immediate action in the form of images of battles assuring the triumph of their cause. I proposed calling these constructions myths, the knowledge of which is so important for the historian: the syndicalist general strike and Marx’s catastrophic revolution are myths. I have given as remarkable examples of myths those which were constructed by early Christianity, the Reformation, the French Revolution and by Mazzini’s followers. I wanted to show that it is not necessary to try to analyze such systems of images in the same way that one breaks down something into its elements; that they should be taken as a whole and as historical forces; that it is necessary above all to keep from comparing the accomplished facts with the images which men had adopted prior to action.”
<Georges Sorel, Reflections on Violence, Page 20, Cambridge Texts Edition
The emphasis on the word "images" is my own, as I feel that's directly relevant to the tidal wave of AI slop we see coming from The Right Wing today. Now I should mention that though Sorel uses the term "images" he doesn't necessarily mean a literal picture or painting. The images Sorel refers to could exist as ethereally as in the mind's eye. What matters for the sake of politics is that these images are conceptualized collectively and depict triumphant battles against an enemy.
To try to break this down simply; Sorel believed that myths provided a crucial motive force, that regardless of their relationship to the actual reality of the conflict, they motivate people to become partisans within that conflict. For example, one such myth he references was that of Early Christianity. Historically, Christianity existed in the space of an End Times movement, several early Christians earnestly believed Christ was coming and that by dying as martyrs they would be rewarded in the hereafter. Indeed, contemporary Roman sources would even occasionally remark that Christians would willingly turn themselves in to authorities in hopes of achieving martyrdom. It doesn't matter that the myth Christians conceptualized for themselves didn't literally happen, as Christ didn't return in their lifetimes to usher in the Last Judgement. Rather that myth motivated Christians to proselytize, to suffer martyrdom, and ultimately led to the Christianization of the Roman Empire.
It was important to Sorel that images depict conflict to be elevated to the status of "myth"; images which merely depict perfect or idealized society, Sorel thought, merely indulged in Utopianism which would lead to reformism.
>“As long as there are no myths accepted by the masses, one may go on talking of revolts indefinitely without ever provoking any revolutionary movement; this is what gives such importance to the general strike and renders it so odious to socialists who are afraid of revolution; they do all they can to shake the confidence felt by the workers in the preparations they are making for the revolution; and in order to succeed in this they cast ridicule on the idea of the general strike, which alone has a value as a motive force.

What do we do about anti-intellectualism?
It's completely impossible to have any sort of meaningful conversation about anything that matters anymore because nobody will engage with the facts. Conservatives who've never put any thought into a topic in their life will say "well my initial assumption is obviously common sense" and the general public will treat this as an equally (if not more) valid argument than citing years of history and peer-reviewed research done by people who've dedicated their lives to understanding the world. There's no way for the left to convince anyone of anything if reality itself is shunned as political bias. It's so infuriating that it's pushing me towards a radically misanthropic mindset. How do we pull the masses out from this gaping abyss?

I remember when he had a whole cult around him in the early 2010s during Occupy and was a huge cheerleader for the Rojava revolution in the years that followed. His book Debt The First 5000 Years was a huge hit (and I mean HUGE, in the sense that you'd see it sold in both anarchist infoshops and mainstream booksellers like Barnes). He was instrumental in rewriting the historical narrative of class formation and the development of money and economic systems. A lot of Marxists didn't like that but they had zero means of debunking his work. When he died in 2020 there was an outpouring of love from leftists all over the world, for an anarchist intellectual who meant so much to people.
But now, I never see Graeber mentioned, ever. The only times I see him or his work brought up is to heavily chastise it, or attack him for his anarchist politics. Tankies hate him but can never prove him wrong. I have to ask why he's become nothing but a footnote in the history of leftist thought, especially when he was so celebrated 15 years ago.

Argentine Professors Call 48-Hour Strike Over Funding Law
Public universities are not receiving the funding established by the law, despite Supreme Court rulings ordering its implementation. This delay affects both the day-to-day operation of the institutions and the payment of faculty salaries and student scholarships. Argentine unions denounce that salary adjustments in recent months resulted from unilateral decisions, without formal collective bargaining, and were far below inflation. On Sunday, they also warn that they will intensify protests if the Milei administration does not offer concrete responses.

Venezuelan Parliament Approves Law to ‘Protect’ Real Estate Developers
The law also establishes fines for delays in submitting documents, permit failures, non-compliance with regulations, and violations of preventive measures, among other offenses. At the same time, the legislative project establishes incentives for private sector constructors such as greater flexibility to set prices, an end to a prior existing 24-month deadline for completing certain projects, and modified conditions benefiting sellers should buyers fail to make payments. The bill also eliminated the lending banks’ liability in case the real estate project is not completed. For buyers, the change removes one of the parties they could potentially hold accountable in case the purchased home is not delivered.

and the most "hardcore oldfag" gamers spend more time complaining about videogames than playing them
so what is even going on with americans and videogames?
do americans even like playing videogames?
every server i have to share with american players they're either cheating, trolling, immediately detaching themselves off the game whenever someone tries to take it serious, literally being too high off their fucking brains to even know where they are, or just downright begging for attention with racist rants or in the case of queers, just turning the whole server into ERPand the most "hardcore oldfag" gamers spend more time complaining about videogames than playing them

>ONE OF the features of MUD is that if you type LOG at it, it copies all output to a file so you can peruse it later at your leisure. Hours of endless amusement can be had by looking at other people's LOG files which they have left lying around.
>Consider the plight of two of our very first externals, who played from the USA back in 1980. One of them had been in before, but his friend hadn't, and fortunatdy for us thought you had to LOG into the game to play. This meant all his activities were recorded for posterity, unbeknown to him.
>Also in the game was Niatram, one of the system operators (who can't spell his name backwards). He decided to loom up on this second character, follow him around a bit, then kill him. This he repeated several times, gaining plenty of points in the process. Finally, the newcomer was at his wits' end.
>"Who's this Niatram character?" he asked his friend. "He keeps following me around and killing me!". "Yes, he's done that to me before", came the reply, "I think he may be dungeon generated!" At this point Niatram appeared, and out of despair his victim quit, rather than be killed yet again by this "artificial person".
Truly, a milestone of gamer history. Also
>And, of course, you WILL be able to play on your micro, although not the same way as you do at present. In the current arrangement, you buy (a likely story!) your cassette and run the software on your own machine; when MUD goes commercial you won't be able to get a copy anywhere in the shops. What you will be able to get is some sort of package explaining to you all you ever wanted to know about the game, and access details on how to contact the host computer over some network. You follow these instructions and there you are, in a game with 100 other people, who are also sitting at home playing on the mainframe via their own micros. The only cost is that for the network (telephone, cable or whatever) and around a pound an hour peak times for the game itself.

what about a web browser that silently launches a qemu snapshot of alpine linux running firefox or chromium (with adblock and paywallbypassclean) to render a page and save it to the host, then kills the vm and generates a simple html text-only version of the page? most modern cpus have virtualization acceleration and qemu could use whatever vm acceleration is available on the host os like kvm or whpx or whatever so the rendering ought to be pretty quick, the vm snapshot already has the os and firefox running in a frozen a state so no waiting for it to boot up, and it wouldn't be detected as a headless browser because it's just regular desktop firefox/chromium. just a thought.
writing a modern text-only web browser
i was thinking about the reader view feature in ios safari and how surprisingly well it works with a lot of sites despite tremendous efforts to block it, and thinking about gemini and how it never really took off due the insanely tall order of expecting people to create a whole new world wide web from scratch in the 2020s, and how all the old text-mode web browsers are ancient and don't work with much of the modern web, and how writing a new web browser from scratch is basically impossible now if you're not a huge corporation with billions of dollars, and how all these "stealth browser" projects like brave are shady as fuck, and how headless web browsers are basically a lost cause with web developers (scum of the earth) constantly figuring out new ways to spy on users and block anything that doesn't look like a real desktop browser, i had a crazy idea:what about a web browser that silently launches a qemu snapshot of alpine linux running firefox or chromium (with adblock and paywallbypassclean) to render a page and save it to the host, then kills the vm and generates a simple html text-only version of the page? most modern cpus have virtualization acceleration and qemu could use whatever vm acceleration is available on the host os like kvm or whpx or whatever so the rendering ought to be pretty quick, the vm snapshot already has the os and firefox running in a frozen a state so no waiting for it to boot up, and it wouldn't be detected as a headless browser because it's just regular desktop firefox/chromium. just a thought.

I hate Warhammer
I hate all of it. The fans, the retarded looking oversized armor. Most of all I hate that it’s heavily focused on the American military. You never get to play as the Russian orcs or anything. No you always play as the US marines. Because it’s meant to be pro us military propaganda. Just like Starship Troopers hides behind fake bullshit “anti war” veil that doesn’t mean anything because it’s still a pro us military movie. Do you get to play as the bugs in the Starship Troopers game? Nope. Yeah it’s all chinlet us military propaganda. Same with that gay Helldivers game.

If the price of something is determined by the amount of human work that goes into it, how does one explain the price of luxury items or artworks (which only require a little bit of work but are overpriced due to the supply/demand imbalance)?
It might seem like a bunch of impertinent exceptions that could be overlooked but
- the luxury industry is far from being marginal
- if the premise that the value of something is determined by the amount of human work that goes into it isn't true in every context, then the whole law of falling rate of profit doesn't hold true in every context either
(It's been 3 years since I last read Das Kapital and I'm too lazy to read it again)

Abolish the Family
Instead of calling to "abolish the family", we should promote single-parent families which inherently rely on consuming socialized production of goods and services more than multi-parent families. Single-parent families drive up demand, are more profitable and develop the productive forces.

French centre-left candidate launches presidential bid amid divided left
Centre-left politician Raphaël Glucksmann on Sunday launched his bid for the French presidency, aiming to unite moderate left-wing voters and challenge Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s influence ahead of France’s 2027 election. With Marine Le Pen leading first-round polls, Glucksmann is seeking to position himself as a pro-European, pro-Ukraine alternative to both the far right and hard left.

In Kfarchouba, life is 'a big prison' under Israeli occupation of south Lebanon
Qassem, an octogenarian, said that, as a local political authority, he had assured the Israeli military that there were no armed individuals in the village. But this has not made life easy for residents, as constant surveillance and the threat of raids, detention and interrogation add to a pervasive sense of insecurity. Occupying Israeli forces have also limited people's access to their agricultural lands and olive groves. “We can’t use our land, they don’t allow us. The mountains, the valleys, the orchards, the farmlands where we cultivate," the mayor said.

Indonesia takes on Malaysia in battle over palm oil pricing
Analysts say dominance in physical supply does not automatically translate into pricing power.

Billionaire CEO of Canada’s Shopify demands abolition of right to vote for broad sections of the population
Lütke declared that voting rights should be stripped from those whom he termed “dependents”—based on their payment of income tax.

These proposals were met with support from within the Canadian capitalist oligarchy and international financial elite, including from the fascist Elon Musk.

Cuba says US sanctions are blocking its efforts to open the economy to private investment
”Literally, the United States has done everything imaginable to try to prevent foreign investors,” said William LeoGrande, a professor at American University and a leading expert on U.S.-Cuba relations. ”When they say, `Well, we want to see Cuba open up to foreign investment,’ they’re being disingenuous. … It’s not possible for them to succeed without some kind of sanctions relief.” The goal of Trump’s Republican administration, he said, is “not just to open up Cuba economically but to overthrow the Cuban government — to change the nature of the Cuban political system.”
