China has a deal with the Houthis so they do not attack Chinese ships.

Way to throw disabled people under the bus because you aren’t clever enough to find another way to insult their intelligence.

Also using the phrase “civilized people” makes you sound like you’d fit in with the other Republicans.

Find a searx / searxng instance or run one yourself! Depending on corporate software will continue to be a cat and mouse game.

I’m surprised you dont.

Exchange isn’t extraction. If you’re buying raw materials from Africa, yes. If you’re buying finished goods from China, no.

This is precisely why the US had a sudden about face about China. They were hoping their entryism with capitalist exchange would result in the fall of the communist party, who number one priority is preventing the plundering of resources through unequal exchange.

It is the communist vernacular way of saying you’re a dumbass. Not Chinese in origin

The whole point is to say fuck you to America for banning their app

Who arrests more people China or the US?

You are absolutely tripping if you think anyone wants that.

Who do tankies vote for exactly?

Communists don’t want to win elections, they want a proletarian dictatorship, one that completely subjugates the bourgeois class, which you cannot do from within the bourgeois class’s state.

The hammer and sickle is what guarantees that optics will not come before that goal. No AOC will fly your flag to convince people to vote for Kamala Harris.

You’re wasting your vote if you don’t choose to kill half the honkeys!!

Horses and water and drinking and whatnot

RCV won’t fix bourgeois democracy anyway.

Liberals will co-opt anyone who doesn’t flag a hammer and sickle flag

we have a poet among us

Do you guys not want our military to have access to all of the possible tools they can?

I want everyone in our military to be dead

Won’t result in a civil war. American libs are only capable of organizing for imperialism and complaining on the internet. They will piss and moan, but inevitably stop short of doing anything meaningful.

It saves two keystrokes

Your documentation on file system choice is either anecdotal or engineering-masters-thesis, seemingly no in-between

God, I feel this so much. All the benchmarks are such ass too.

I have also struggled with picking a disk layout + FS, and landed on using a single BTRFS partition with FDE.

For now, I’m happy. Unless there’s a new FS that definitively beats BTRFS on NVMe perf and supports copy-on-write and something that makes FDE as easy as subvolumes that definitively beats BTRFS on NVMe drives, I won’t even bother looking into it again.

I’ve considered moving to a RAID setup, but it seems like more trouble than it’s worth, since I do regular /home backups & NixOS keeps my entire system config in version control.

If I ever consider a different disk setup, I’m just going to fire up a clean distro install on a spare NVMe and benchmark my most common tasks myself.

NixOS has killed my decision paralysis for choosing distros and desktop env stuff since I can just enable whatever in my config, try it out, then revert if I don’t like it enough to switch.

Only thing I can’t trivially test is disk layouts, but with disko, it might be easy enough to create a custom NixOS installer that:

• auto-installs a disk layout & your config
• reboots
• runs your benchmarks
• writes the results to disk
• reboots into the live image, repeating this for a list of disk layouts.
