Microsoft is the CIA. Pretty much all US big tech is. Windows is a global CIA mass surveillance program via monopoly capitalism. It’s completely impossible to make Windows secure, there’s no secret registry switch. The entire thing is compromised top to bottom, and under no circumstances should anyone consent to its use. Closed source spyware monopolies are a weapon of war against us by the bourgeois state.

Open source operating systems are software communism. If we’re not willing to build and use existing forms of technological sovereignty and anti-capitalism, then we’re probably not willing to do any other forms of communism either. I hate the “No ethical consumption under capitalism” mantra. How do we expect to get out of capitalism without building alternatives? I think a lot of leftists hope a revolution will happen then just magically replace all the corrupt and bourgeois components of consumerism, using the same uninvolved passive mechanisms.

Do we really believe a windows update will just drop after some election that restores our rights, trust, openness, privacy and dignity? It must be built and owned by the people.

Socialism vs. Communism still make no sense. If "Communism" = Leninism, why are Workerism, Left Communism, and "Apple Pie Communism" (presumably from Browder) under it? Why are "socialist zionism" and social democracy socialist when the latter still betrayed it in 1914+1919+1920s, while the former is literally just moderate apartheid state succdemry?
Unironically the tags should be "Leninism" and "Revolutionary Communism" instead.

>If "Communism" = Leninism, why are Workerism, Left Communism, and "Apple Pie Communism" (presumably from Browder) under it?
Because they're leninist
>Why are "socialist zionism" and social democracy socialist when the latter still betrayed it in 1914+1919+1920s, while the former is literally just moderate apartheid state succdemry?
Maintstream social democracy is still kautskyist centrist marxism not just keynesian welfarism in TNO, and socialist zionism is all about kibbutz shit which goes beyond welfarism
>the tags should be "Leninism" and "Revolutionary Communism" instead.
They shouldn't because not all socialist subids are communist or revolutionary, they're there because they're either non-marxist, non-communist, non-revolutionary or all 3.

EDIÇÃO MOSCOUZINHO
"Em Realengo, na Zona Oeste carioca, um conjunto residencial é, há décadas, conhecido como Moscouzinho. O apelido tem razão de ser. Vários de seus apartamentos serviram de moradia para militantes de esquerda e o lugar foi palco de diversas reuniões clandestinas do Partido Comunista. Por ali passaram Luiz Carlos Prestes, Gregório Bezerra, João Lopes, Thiago de Melo e outros personagens que fizeram história. Tudo isso a cerca de 200m dos quartéis de uma vila militar."

"O conjunto contava com residências para trabalhadores da indústria e fora construído na região de Realengo, em terreno próximo à linha férrea que ligava o centro do Rio de Janeiro à parte oeste da cidade. O local facilitava o acesso de seus moradores à importante zona industrial de Bangu."

I know this might be something thats asked a lot but, what do you guys use/reccomend in terms of linux? I have been in to linux and other stuff for a while, distro hopping from debian to ubuntu(and its variants) to finally cachyOS/void system in my computers. Should i just fully switch to void or just install arch in itself? I was thinking about installing Deepin, and i think i am going to try that one.

>Point incomprehensible
The point is that
<Linus Torvalds checks every AI-generated commit before it is merged
is just plain wrong.

>somehow invalidating Torvalds' well-proven track record of the past two decades

His technical track record consists of being a medicore C programmer (which is probably not true anymore since he let his skills rust lol), and his non-technical managerial track record consists of constantly fellating corpos, jamming their garbage into the project or kernel itself, and keeping the GPLv2 specifically to protect his corpo patronages and spite Stallman.
I don't even know why someone who behaves like the FSF's strongest soldier has personality cult around this guy since he's very obviously opposed to the whole thing.

ngl the vibe coded shit is going to make me uninstall arch in favor of an LTE distro, it's not even limited to linux like the other guy said, but the entire toolset is already turning to vibe slop. it wouldn't be that bad, if the corollary wasn't the expectation of shipping faster which is going to break something eventually, and if something breaks, rolling release distros are going to be the first to feel it.

>(EndeavourOS and Manjaro are two examples of distributions that change things that don't need to be changed without proper documentation, making them buggy in ways that your average computer user would never be able to know how to fix)
ive heard that about manjaro. afiak the only think endeavour does is graphical install with choice de, preinstall barebones basics, yay for pacman, and dracut over mkinitcpio.

im bias, cause i use it, and imma install arch if i ever have to reinstall but i wonder what else they do. it was the highest arch based on distrowatch back when i chose, now cachy is but im not a gamer and think its bloated.

>>34784
An LTE distro is just going to make it worse- now you're sticking old vibecoded software instead of fixed vibecoded software

>>34786
"now cachy is but im not a gamer and think its bloated."
You can't call CachyOS bloated while using EndeavourOS/Manjaro
Either way, EndeavourOS had weird changes assigned to their X server on some of their DE install options, this was years ago but it was just genuinely really fucking stupid
No point in them, stick to upstream.

Haven't played it and don't plan to after watching this video. What the slop? They removed a ton of hookshot interactions and ALL sword interactions with walls.

(Sorry, but it is too big too upload. 15 minutes. One claim in the vid is unfair: You clearly still can dive jump, there is a prompt right there on screen, you just don't do it automatically.)

Unlike the creator of this vid I actually like that fights and obstacle hopping got nerfed, as I'm a very clumsy player. I like when games get easier! (If you got a problem with that, fite me IRL and please not in a video game or I'll cry.) That said, the way they went on making it easier in this remake feels really crude, sometimes outright deleting movement of platforms and some attack patterns and removing some time limits instead of just slowing things down a bit. I would have preferred destructible spikes in the Water Temple instead of … even without watching the vid you can probably guess what they did here.

And there was absolutely no need to nerf puzzles. Think about it: With the change in society of everyone today having smartphones we already got an automatic nerf for puzzles in all but the most obscure games. The designers reduced the stress by making fights and obstacles easier and this leaves more brain power for the puzzles. Double nerf. And for people who still remember bits from solving the puzzles in an older iteration of the game, triple nerf. What possesses a game designer to think something must be done in addition to all that to make the puzzles less frustrating?

Just pointing out not to waste your time watching this. The film's only interesting section is the opening credits which subverts fashwave edits. Other than that the film was trying too hard to be both a pastiche and a tribute to John Carpenter's work without knowing what made his films good.

Comrades,
Please watch Thiasos (1975).
Not sure if you can truly understand if you are not greek, but Theo Aggelopoulo's filmography is, in my opinion, the peak of cinema as an artform, and shoul therefore be watched by every progressive partisan, fighting for a better, a more beautiful world. Art from the point of view of the proletariat (the most progressive social force in the sense that it is the class whose historic mission is the liberation of the whole of humanity) is the aesthetic encapsulation of objective reality, serving a vital role in the ideological life of man. In that sense I fully undertake the, in the last analysis, pgilosophicla, weight of my claim that Theo Aggelopoulo's filmography is truly the most complete expression of the fundamantel function of the essence of cinema, as a synthetic art form. In our age of subjectivity of course, it is inevitable that even works of such magnitude and universality require a minimum of individuality and accidental circumstances. However, even if you do not agree with me, I truly think that everyone on this site, potential internationalist comrades in the struggle against capital, should watch at least Thiasos. It is a wholistic view of the most crucial moments of the greek working people's struggle for the new world, put into the most beautiful of aesthetic expressions with means corresponding to the content of the objective. In that way it complets the essential function of revolutionary art.

>>48240
pic is from the hunters (1977) but it is representative of the moody, yet hopeful gaze that characterizes the bittersweet memory of the civil war from the pov of our deafeted communist camp, that Aggelopoulos so beautifully expresses

"Fossil Fools?" I only saw "Sorry to Bother You." I thought it was alright if not somewhat forgettable. Maybe one of the lesser of the wave of Black horror films in recent years. Actually I think a lot of Jordan Peele's films were kinda meh and forgettable.

Also I'm curious how that movie or Boots Riley's other work(never seen any) relate to Digger.

Ahem

Marxism has no reality at all in the West. Nearly all self-proclaimed Marxists are frauds who haven’t even read Marx, let alone understand him. They use the label Marxism, despite knowing nothing about it, as a pseudo-intellectual obfuscation for their liberal ideology. To begin, what is Marxism? Marxism is not a theory of equality. It is not a diagnosis of injustice, nor is it a specific prescription of how to remedy society’s ills. Marxism is a method for acquiring knowledge about the laws governing the historical development of societies. Marxism thus regards itself as a type of science. Most people think of science as something purely descriptive. But the reason Marx’s contemporaries called him Prometheus is because he bequeathed a science that did not just describe reality, but participated in its development. This makes Marxism totally contrary to modern science. Modern science places knowledge above its object. To know, means to strip something naked to consciousness and turn it into a utility for the knowing subject. He who knows an object, can control, master, and alter an object. But the ‘object’ known by Marxism is none other than human society itself. And the paradox lies in the obvious fact that society is not just an object, but also a subject. Marxists (subjects) are themselves part of the very object they make knowable. To complicate matters further, Marx does not claim knowledge of society alone can transform society. Instead, he proves that society is already coming to know and transform itself materially in the form of the then growing proletarian class. Most people think Marx is ‘Promethean’ because he wanted his ideas popularized. But the REAL reason was because he had the courage of declaring the return of knowledge back to being itself, and human beings in particular. He created a science that ceased to be above its object. For Marx, the knowledge of historical laws arrived at by consciousness, was being reflected in history itself. Knowledge of humanity does not dominate humanity, but reveals that it was there, and part of it all along. “Communism is the riddle of history solved.” Why the need for class consciousness? This is where people misunderstand Leninism as an attempt to turn politics and state power into a tool for realizing some goal of the mind. In reality, the role of Marxists lies in spreading the ‘good news’ to the despairing proletariat. Class consciousness, the so-called ‘vanguard party,’ and the CommunPost too long.

well it's also the communist larp. the revolutionaries of October 1917 often wrote with pseudonyms. This is a practice they inherited from the American revolutionaries, who larped with Ancient Roman Republican pen names. But in 2026 it's surprising to see someone last so long with a pen name, especially when they're constantly apparing "in the flesh" to give speeches and running a party that is legally registered as an organization.

Something that someone else pointed out was that from the 3rd movie onward, the battles really lack a sense of scale. The time skip puts the story in such an unfamiliar place that the storyboarding and choreography robs them of anything familiar they can use to impress on the audience as sense of scale and space (think of the wide shots of tokyo 3 and the collateral damage thereof in the first half), so a lot of the fights just kind of devolve into empty chaos

Also reworked the git history using lazygit and a lot of care (a bit too late), so that some of the mistakes are a little less obvious. Line count 8500. Plan for the remainder of the day is the Follow code, and maybe the Settings. If we're lucky might even touch the Group creation page.

>>34760
Follows, FEP-228, and settings complete 10000 lines total… Next is a (likely) massive amount of moderation code. After this there's only a handful of features levels left: LLM, rate limits, email verification, and style. Well and all the tests (yes it's terrible that I haven't been testing all along). I'm aiming for under 20k, and never a large project >100k. Once all this is done now have a two week review of the whole thing planned.

>>34770
Project size increase by 60% for the naive moderation system. 16000 lines now — though some of this is pgtyped generated. Thought it would take three days to review, but its seeming now like it's going to take longer.

Yes, yes selfhosting is the most privacyrespecting way, I know, but I'm not a richfag. So here is my idea:
I use something like lambda.chat with a VPN. Is this enough, to prevent them from creating a shadow profile of me? Or should I stick with duck.ai ? I like lambda.chat more, because it has Dipsy. What do you think?

the strata engine can do qwen flash at 70 tokens per second, but 16GB means you get little context which makes them useless for agentic programming. but we're so close to frontier level agents on consumer hardware!

Well it's complete. The light Phone will now run any game program Flawlessly.

Privacy is definitely something I think about before trying new AI tools. I’d be curious to try genjutsu ai generator for video experiments, especially if the privacy settings are clear about how uploaded clips are handled. genjutsu ai generator (https://genjutsuai.com/)

At 16GB, you can just run Qwen 3.8 27B instead quantized, and have a larger cache.

>>34681
16GB VRAM is more than most people have on their computers. Even 8GB vram (my own machine) puts you above most people.

I have seen so many Cishet Anons (including me) ask questions on this board but create new threads in doing so. So I decided to make this thread so we don’t have to clutter up the board.

>Why does being trans have to be medical anyway though?
It makes it very easy for those in power to decide who gets to be trans and who doesn't, all while appearing to be supporting the "real" trans people and protecting the apparently misguided cis people who are totally not trans because a commission decided that they are not dysphoric enough or whatever.

>>11424
Never happened. Meanwhile, transsexuality has become such a degenerative idpol that HRT will now be banned for everyone, as it's seen as a body modification like tattoos or piercings, not a life-saving treatment.

It is happening right now.

Hey, now i get your reasoning, but i still would have to disagree (also yeah, we're twins, the other guy is sitting right next to me)
As you pointed out, the color pallette became alot less original (which is self-evident) but i'm not sure if it makes sense to even re-release the original comic as it is. People that like this original style will read the classic, but the new comic will be more understandable (in terms of the styling choice atleast) for a broader audience, you could argue that it looks worse, but id say its just less original, such safe colors are more popular (they wouldn't put them in all the "darker" comic books if it didn't sell). And before you say that its the lack of originality killing the comic books, i'll disagree in advance. It was alot harder at the time to make comics, but now, since anyone able to draw can publish there is no lack in colorful experiments, you just have to look for something less popular.

The recolor is amazingly amateurish. It lacks depth (in the literal sense) and focus. Let's be real though the future of comic remasterslop is going to be AI, even worse, and not a penny will go to even untalented hack artists who could at least eek out a living from their butchery in the 2000s. Comics aren't going to die because they got worse, but because everyone's on their phone unironically. People only buy them out of nostalgia the only new big names I can think of are either anime or from the early 2010s.

Strange, first one seems more visually clear, yet the second one has better contrast.

Anyone else in tech worried about the future of the field? I barely got in and I'm being bombarded all day by news about how it's fucking over and that this career will be automated soon. I have two jobs at the moment and they're both vibecoding B2B SaaS for suckers who can't be bothered to build their own stuff at the price of 1 junior dev and 1 Claude Pro subscription. Most of the stuff I do now is trying to break whatever slop "I" have produced in prod and then fixing it with more prompts.
After 6 years of uni, I really can't afford to go for another degree from scratch. I'm thinking about getting into embedded systems so I can have a more specialized job, but I've heard a lot of propaganda that "white collar jobs are over and you should get into manual labor". What do you guys think?

The Christian far right have over the past few years began identifying Marxism, leftism, progressive social values, "woke", etc with the concept of historical Gnosticism.
Countless far right Evangelical and Catholic priests deep down the chud rabbit hole are now regularly writing lengthy essays on their websites and doing dumb YouTube podcasts trying to explain how socialism or trans identity are somehow all "Gnostic" in nature. How it's all part of some conspiracy of a Gnostic revival.

So, what in turn as leftists do you anons make of this?
What do you actually think of the real historical Gnosticism?
Are your beliefs all part of some secret evil Gnostic revival?

Personally I find Gnostic lore deeply interesting, but at the end of the day it's just another collection of man-made myths, and I don't see any connection to leftist beliefs at all.
If anything Gnosticism might just be the most anti-materialist belief system ever.

spooks begone

Probably because a lot of people on the left read Homestuck growing up or had osmotically absorbed Homestuck lore from other media, and Homestuck is very gnostic. So like even if there's no intended gnosticism, the vibes are there.

Interesting ideas, but everything is ruined by their Abrahamic base and the whitewashing of Jesus.

Is this board alive at all or is it dead. The reading list on the overboard is nice. But does anyone actually frequent it often? Image below uploaded for reasons

probably posted this on the wrong sub so i apologise. Most likely shouldve been posted on siberia

also any other/ particular books are reccomended?

so far ive picked up kropotkin, shestov, hamsun, adam smith, leopardi, artaud, flaubert schopenhauer. Anything else worthy of note in particular?

yeah not the brightest choice on my part. thank you!

The only thing I draw are grotesque mushrooms with grotesque faces and facial hair. Would you care to see?

I write fantasy though.

>>6374
Sure, post both.

>>6375
My fantasy books that are in the works are marketable enough that I don't want anyone to see them before they're published. I want to write cool shit for a living. If you knew me in person I'd talk your ear off about it, though. Let me find some pictures I drew. Hold please.

COD is a ZOGbot production psyops, as well as almost every shooter game that was ever made.

No other game lets me play as a badass soviet tovarish in Stalingrad and Berlin. The pacific campaign remains unmatched as well.

>>48533
>it was a modern shooter with WW2 paint over it.

How? All of the COD games had been WW2 themed at that point except modern warfare (which wasn't even made by the same studio)

>>48553
because they recycle engines, and the mw engine was made for modern tacticool fast-paced room clearing. all the cod games since mw have been "war on terror" gameplay with different coats of paint on top
ww2 is too slow for modern games

hype moments and aura

>>48553
it's also that killing nazis is now alienating a sizeable portion of the core audience, if the reactions to the latest wolfenstein are anything to go by lol
