Basically I was lured in (or “ideologically groomed”) to fascism, and as people around me started to go more mask-off, I thought I need to leave ASAP or I cross the point of no return. Then I had to learn that conservatism wasn’t about “moderate nationalism” but “power for power sake”. Then I had to learn, that communism wasn’t bad because of the lack of nationalism but due to the authoritarianism part. So first I became an “edgy liberal” to address the “rampant political correctness” of “the left”, then I learned that socialism can be much more than Kádár-era work morals and the secret police torturing people until they admit to horrible crimes.

Former fascist/conservative here, the whole “you will grow out of progressive politics” is both a Reagan-era lifestyle marketing gimmick, and a passive ultimatum saying “you either cease your progressiveness or you won’t live to an old age”.

I have a feeling, that the tech sector has enough kompromat on a lot of important people to keep the bubble from bursting.

There are already a bunch of documented but umimplemented functions in a few Xbox related API, like GameInput.

How long until someone uses a LibreOffice Online instance to drop a Google doc on someone?

It’s “Iraq is using PS2s to build ICBMs” all over again…

There’s a lot of astroturfing online in favor of online censorship and inacting online verifications.

Read a bit into this. That’s not how teens write.

One could just hard-fork Chromium…

KATE replaced VSCode and Codium for my open source development work.

If it bursts, that is. I have a fear that people behind AI have grown so savvy of the bubbles, that they have a complicated plan to avoid it, and artificially uphold it with the help of bribed/blackmailed politicians.

Breaking news: Fire is hot.

Then get ready for people just making slop libraries, not because people are dissatisfied with existing solutions (such as I did with iota, which is a direct media layer similar to SDL, but has better access to some low-level functionality + OOP-ish + memory safe lang), but just because they can.

I got a link to a popular rectpacking algorithm pretty quickly after asking in a Discord server. Nowadays I’d be asked to “vibecode it”.

The fan remake is better.

Hungarian here. Yes.

Now I wonder if he’s in the Epstein files…

Because if anyone remotely left did that, Trump would have sent in the National Guard.

That explains the rise of the far-right.

Finally, the people’s girlboss leader!

Some liberal on BlueSky tried to use genAI to unmask ICE agents.
