  • You’re irrelevant IN the big picture, at least with that attitude. Defeatism is everywhere and prevents grassroots movements and is the sign of a weak spirit. I refuse that attitude and stick to the merits of a concept, rather than falling back on a logical fallacy like appeal to majority. Stop doing that, because that’s how you get subjugated, that’s how change is prevented, that is how those in power and influence remain in power and influence. Be the change you want to see.

    EDIT: but yes, i was lost, as i thought i was answering to a comment in my inbox, but I did also find @MeetInPotatoes@lemmy.ml mom - and boy did I meet those potatoes, lemme tell ya.






  • As a strong black woman, I’m kind of pissed that we lost all those talented female lyricists and R&B singers who got Thanos snapped out of existence in the late 90s because they didn’t want to sell sex. It makes me want to slap a bitch for calling it “empowerment”…

    At least my inner black woman is angry af because of that.

    The music industry is garbage, pure garbage. Sony and Universal execs have a special place in hell.



  • The RISC-V is an extensible ISA, so yes. All those vendor extensions are optional, when fabricating the processor, which can be replaced by other extensions over time.

    Both Intel and AMD have had vendor extensions in the designs that they no longer use, even ones that have been “retracted” (i.e whatever in the heck Intel is doing with their AVX extensions).

    But yeah, currently, there are a lot of proprietary extensions, which could still be declared as open hardware as well. So yeah.






  • Here’s a kind reminder that the Russian state is not the Russian people and there are plenty of examples throughout history of people being complacent. There are very few examples of a state so corrupt as Russia, where politicians, oligarchs and literal mafia have a hidden understanding and the system of law is just a dog and pony show.

    That being said, empower Russians in diaspora, here in Europe and in the US, that seek to depose Putin, that seek to inform the Russian people. I’m saying Russia needs it’s own IRA and certain buildings need to go boom, not because Ukraine, but because of Russians.

    Be their ally, and for God’s sake, don’t use fucking Telegram to communicate with them.
