You could probably imagine the possibility of state actors and Intel, for example, conspiring to backdoor AES instructions of specific targets. Maybe possible with the IME. Not accusing them of this, but it's not out of the realm of po

A primary source of oppression in some nations is the education system. To think that it's impossible to be wielded against us in kind, at some point in the future, is naive. You might think conservatives are stupid for homeschooli

Did homeschooling just fall off the face of the planet? Stop sending your kids to these kinds of schools. Take the initiative to be learned enough to teach your kids at least the fundamentals, and then instill in them the drive to want to l

Gotcha. Yeah see I had no clue Crouton was unmaintained. Shows how long its been since I've used a Chromebook I guess. I'm not even familiar with Crostini. Only heard the name.

Gave up on using sandboxed Play Services, or GrapheneOS? I had Play Services on my last Pixel until I broke it. Got another of the same phone and installed GrapheneOS again, but didn't install Play nor Services, and honestly F-Droid ha

But did you know Javascript, Ruby, and Vimscript can already do it?

"Professionals" arbitrarily deciding whose psychological functions are passable in order to allow an elected person to take office sounds horrendous to me, impartial panel or not. If there's anything 2020-2021 and the 4th b

Agreed. There may be some older people that are still totally capable. Not everyone's cognitive functions crumble at the same time, to the same degree, or even in the same way. Age limits are a bad solution.

Yeah Emacs is insane. It's the only editor that is so customizable that it can imitate any other editor. Obviously, that comes with some effort to do, though.

This is the conclusion I've come to. Societal decay causes nations with even the most solid foundations to topple. There's really no way around it. A phrase to summarize the phenomenon is: "Politics is downstream from culture

My answer to my girlfriend was that I think about ancient Greece more often. Rome less. Greece was ahead of its time in philosophy and science. So many household names. Rome has a lot of political analogs to today though, which is what I fi
