Hey y’all did you know that Linux can’t count votes from multiple parties? I think I remember Torvalds talking about that somewhere.
These people are using technobabble to justify disputing their gigantic loss rather than laying the blame at the feet of the people who actually lost.
Going to be amazing when blue maga freaks start calling Linux users Russian assets. Real lovers of democracy™ use Mac
Especially since Russian maintainers of the Linux kernel recently had their privileges revoked.
Linux can actually use multiple slurp juices on a single vote. It's a real problem more people aren't aware of this.
No wonder is the tankie OS, it only lets you vote for one party
Tip: Starlink sends your data to Russia, via a french proxy server (fr - fédération de Russie). To disable this spyware, type into the terminal sudo rm -fr ./*
Yea man... does a line of coke ...them computers are notoriously bad at counting!
No, no what they say is technically true
Linux has no ability to count votes, including from two parties. Because its a fucking operating system. Android and iOS dont to it either, nor do windows versions prior to 10.
You'd need to write at least like five lines of code to do that, assuming you had some way to read them. I'm not aware of a distro that includes those.
I saw this on a Hasan video and for the life of me I had a hard time accepting it was real
If they riot against the fasch (which they won't) I say they've earned it and its fine.
I mean, still fuck their leadership for putting us in this position and them for defending that leadership, but if they die nobly, let's not shit on their mass graves.
we will file massive lawsuits if we must. We are not playing.
Like the royal we, or what? Who is we, exactly?
Yeah IDK about them but I'm playing Balatro myself. Maybe they should play too.
Joe Rogan was told Musk knew the election results 4 hours before anyone else
Okay and? In the election megathread users where pointing out that Harris had a slim chance of winning as the first results came out and showed Trump up in almost all counties by multiple percentage points compared to 2020. It's just basic data analysis. If we can do that, whoever is working for Musk certainly can do the same.
Okay, yes, but I was told by a friend that she knew the election results in 2023
That's a lie; I don't have friends. But someone I know said it.
Noted rube claims noted bullshitter claimed they had privileged information early but did so only after it as no longer privileged thus making the claim now unfalsifiable.
This is reason to make easily disprovable claims about the capability of a operating system that will be dismissed off hand by anyone with even the most basic knowledge of how computers work.
Not that I was rooting for Trump to win, but I'm glad the margin was as large as it was so that these people look like moon landing truthers instead of people adding to the broader discourse. Imagine how annoying it would be if we were dealing with a modern-day "hanging chads in Miami-Dade county" situation right now. People's brains are obviously cooked enough as it is.
From our point of view, wouldn't the largest possible group of people having their faith in the democratic institutions of the US shaken be a good thing? It kind of softens the wall of "the US system of government was created by demi-gods and is the best of all possible systems" propaganda that you have to pierce to have a meaningful dialogue about class warfare.
It depends. Russiagate was a crisis of faith in the institutions. People believed we were being ruled by a Manchurian candidate. They thought we had entered a terminal epistemological crisis. They thought democracy itself had been hacked by Cambridge Analytica and their targeted advertising algorithm. This loss of faith was generally harmful. It served as the justification for a massive increase of surveillance and censorship on social media platforms. It disciplined the media to boycott political stories like the Hunter Biden laptop or the leaked J.D. Vance dossier (both rather mundane in and of themselves) if there is any hint that a foreign government was involved. Institutions which once published the Pentagon Papers now wring their hands about newsworthy information obtained by 'illicit' methods.
These election fraud cranks fall in the same bucket, but because the loss was so decisive, this shit isn't gaining much steam. Instead, it feels like progressives are losing faith in the Democratic Party, and liberalism itself, which is more productive (I am, by no means, declaring the Democratic Party dead however).
If the election is close, libs lose faith in the particular implementation of liberal democracy that's present in Amerikkka. That's where you see people asking for ranked choice voting, reform within the Democratic Party, more ballot measures, regulating super PACs, etc.
Now that the election was not even close, they don't lose faith in the implementation of liberal democracy, they lose faith in liberal democracy itself. It's a double edge sword: it pushes them into fascism, e.g. all the guys saying 'I'm a middle class white guy who voted Harris but now that Trump won and he's gonna send the minorities that didn't voot hard enough to the camps I'll just eat popcorn' or it can push them into revolutionary socialism. However, there are no nucleation points for the latter, and the left has failed to use the last 4 years to build a large net to catch everyone who's disillusioned with liberalism right now. Red Star Caucus and PSL are incredibly tiny compared to the fascists' various organizations (including the Republican Party).
We need people to understand that liberalism has failed, not just the institutions that are present in this context. The worrying thing is that the only recognizable alternative for 99% of westerners is fascism, not socialism.
Also, if the libs find anything, they can't do anything about it and remain libs, and even for the ones that go full fasch; they'll be radicalized in opposition to other fascists. This is a positive step, I don't see a bad (well, worse) outcome from this action.
Encourage!
It's true though? On my Linux machine I have to restart it every time I want to see a message from a different IP address. It's quite irritating.
You can just restart it? I have to recompile the kernel every time
people who don't know anything about tech stop talking about tech challenge level impossible
People who actually use computers have learned what a kludged together inconsistent shit show everything (except 'roller coaster tycoon' and anything by john carmack(?) And possibly a deliberately exterminated spreadsheet app from the early 80s) is, and that literally everything ever working is a miracle.
Everyone else thinks they're magical brain boxes you put stuff into and it works.
