They won’t. It’s easier to blame someone else. In EU, even in shittier countries it is fairy normal for leadership to resign when they lose elections, especially so convincingly. And losing elections to fucking Trump should be a sign for everyone to fucking resign. But nope, they think they are irreplaceable.

While I am absolutely aware that “voting for lesser of two evils” is a necessity, I do understand people who just couldn’t get bothered.

It is appaling that what Democrats think is “left” is very much right in Europe. There is no left in USA, people with empathy have noone to vote for.

You can only vote for billionaires.

While I would always vote for Harris, if I was in the USA I would also be amazed at how scared Democrats are to say no to their sponsors.

These are not elections. These are popularity contests and reality shows…

Peter Thiel is delighted.

Humans are so fucking stupid…

When i left my ex-communist country for greener pastures, many years ago, one of the biggest shocks was learning about “lobbying”.

What we backward peasants from communism considered plain corruption, was perfectly legal and normal in the USA. Less so in Western Europe, though. Not only normal but seems to be one of core means of getting into power (and holding onto it), whether it is business or politics. Mind you, I never lived in the USA but based on everything I see/hear that is absolutely the case.

I am still flabbergasted by it…

Did they hire Mark Zuckerberg’s twin brother or something?

Right. I am dumb 😕🤗

Not really interested in debating with average “I run arch btw” user. We are not in the same universe, things I have to audit and maintain are not in the same universe with things you do, so having such a smart advice coming from you is not a surprise at all. I could, after all, just roll out my own distro if I am not happy, amirite?

I run systemd machines because I don’t have a choice. It doesn’t make it any less of a shit. Simple as that.

But hey, tell me some more about systemd, I am really new to all this 🤔

“Just avoid places that sysadmins and security guys frequent and get your opinions on systemd from memes and people running arch on home machine”. Great plan.

Systemd is absolute and utter shit, especially from security perspective.

Noone was asking security guys but package maintainers.

My favorite systemd thing is booting up a box with 6 NICs where only 1 was configured during the initial setup. Second favorite is betting on whether it will hang on reboot/shutdown.

Great tool, 10/10.

What the fuck… 😳

OpenSSH

The only thing I still use reddit for is to browse Fortnite sub sometimes (once every few days), on a desktop (Firefox with ublock) and if I post anything it’s useless shit.

I got a reddit (not sub) warning for personal attacks.

In a message that said “Fuck you, EPIC”.

If i remember correctly, warning even implied that it was an automated warning.

Works great. Can’t wait to post even more nonsensical shit there.
