Cooperatives and nationalization of key industries.

I was looking at a thinkpad some months ago on their website and selecting Ubuntu from their options took off $160.

There was one time I was sleeping and my ex’s dog woke me up barking. It really startled me, like I was actually terrified, and without thinking, literally tackled the dog. Always thought I was a runner, but might end up attacking the mummy.

Its modeled after a cooperative.

Most people in the states can barely reach their feet. They have a special bench in their house for putting their shoes on, but they have to make sure they do a proper warmup routine, chair yoga, before else they’ll pull something. Putting their shoes on is like the most exercise they’ll ever get in a day. Too stubborn to admit they need their own handicap parking permit after they stole the one they use from their aging mothers. They take an ultralight backpacking camp chair for the two story elevator ride at work. They can’t be expected to take off their shoes until they have to take their once weekly shower.

Wait is this how you get up to date when your system is past long term support? Had trouble updating once and couldn’t find an answer.

Didn’t properly backup my data and lost a couple years of work doing a fresh install (school work and personal projects). Would not recommend doing backups drunk. Would recommend backing up your data regularly.

Personally when I say I want to ditch capitalism, the first thing I think of, among many, is simply about democratizing the workplace. Cooperatives have proven themselves to be superior than the current private model in a variety of metrics. If we reduce the defining characteristic of capitalism as needing capital to produce more capital, the current issue is that cooperative enterprises struggle to obtain the initial capital necessary to get started. Even though they have much greater success rates, banks have historically refused to give loans to these endeavers. There exists non profits to try and fill this void but its not enough.

This is the answer, folks. I learned from an old 3 star michelin star chef, and chefs all have anger issues.

Nonviolent resistance movements are more likely to facilitate transitions from autocracy to democracy, improve democratic qualities like civil liberties, transform security forces and judicial systems in rights-respecting directions, and enhance well-being measures such as life expectancy.

The commonly held belief that most revolutions that have happened in dictatorial regimes were bloody or violent uprisings is not borne out by historical analysis.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonviolent_revolution

Empirical evidence strongly favors strategic, organized nonviolent resistance as the most effective path to sustainable political change.

Political assassinations are a tool of desperation. They’re effective at creating instability and further violence; counterproductive for achieving lasting political goals. They fail to eliminate the ideas, movements, and structures that person represented.

There’s a Wikipedia page on nonviolent revolutions, so is violence itself necessary or is the threat of violence sufficient? History may not actually be in complete agreement in favor of violent resistance.

“Nonviolent campaigns have a 53% success rate and only about a 20% rate of complete failure. Things are reversed for violent campaigns, which were only successful 23% of the time, and complete failures about 60% of the time. Violent campaigns succeeded partially in about 10% of cases, again comparing unfavorably to nonviolent campaigns, which resulted in partial successes over 20% of the time.”

Can’t forget the elephants down there propping everything up

Usually its not so obvious if his tweets are real or not. Happy to see he’s finally come out of the closet.

These are are simply unitary fucks. Matrix fucks with eigenvalue absolute value of 1. Surprisingly useful for quantum computing applications.

Ahh the navier stokes fuck. Believed to actually be computable.

Must be a reference to the space of topological fucks. I believe this one is equivalent to the torus.

Sometimes it helps solve an equation by adding zero.

I understand its probably more user friendly, but yet I still somehow find myself dissapointed the answers weren’t indexed from zero. Was this LLM written in MATLAB?

After giving the medium a chance, not sure I wouldn’t call myself a fan anymore, but I certainly take issues with the typically associated tropes. So here’s my list of more recent shows with either very little or none of these.

Literally tried looking for a jinx text editor for a minute

Briefly looked into it, and found an old stack post that said we know at least one is irrational. It would be pretty interesting if the other were rational.
