Like all western societies, australians have their own flavor of red hats

That has nothing to do with being a western society. I’m pretty sure that China, India and Somalia have it too. Maybe named differently, and with Chinese Supremacist instead of White Supremacist groups, but pretty similar. It’s just something that exists in each human society. It’s called Chauvinism btw.

how so? isn’t it the smoke that’s bad?

Now just sell it as lemonade and profit :)

translatio imperii - The empire just moves westward throughout human history.

The US economy is generally down, but there are exceptions. Some companies make more profit than they did before, especially US oil companies.

Why? Simple. Prices for oil are up, the US oil companies continue to extract the same amount out of the ground, which they can now sell at higher prices -> higher profit.

did you know, in spain (or some regions thereof) the “x” is pronounced as sh

WASM is great :) unironically

everything should switch to wasm. i’m not saying this because of arbitrarily. it’s just very well thought-through. wasm automatically provides portability, sandboxing, and integration with other languages.

like, one of the things i still don’t understand is why we don’t have automatic sandboxing for every application. like, when i download and run a new game from steam, why isn’t it automatically put in a sandbox? Why does it have full read/write access to my entire disk? i don’t like that at all…

Converting everything to wasm would solve that automatically, and very easily on top of that.

Yeah that would be nice.

no. it’s just another thing to make people upset at each other. ignore what they say.

ADHD is the true anarchist spirit.

If somebody owns shares of $company_A, they have to pay 1% of the shares annually, which become public property. This way, the means of production (company shares) slowly become public property over time.

you can never make art again

What the who came up with this?

Yeah, “property” as in something that can be discussed in court and the kings (or feudal lords) basically were the court as they were the ones enforcing the law. So it was a king-related (or rather feudal-lord related) affair.

Even if so, i keep having a dream that humans are the only species capable of developing spaceflight, because no other species has technology of the level necessary for that. So in a sense, humans might not be the only ones to be able to see the stars but we sure are the only species able to reach them.

damn that’s fascinating

here’s a nice video for you: https://youtube.com/watch?v=zPHLojHUCvk

it shows how most animals move through the world: they can only see the trees and stuff next to them; it takes humans to see the stars.

this is just an absolutely amazing image IMHO

Also in case somebody cares, my definition is that reality is time, space, matter and energy.

Everything that is measurable; everything that is subject of laws and that a lord would possess.

Like, i believe the word “real” literally comes from the root “re-” which means something like king-like (latin “rex”), so it describes everything associated with a worldly leader, which is mostly the possession of land areas and the (measurable) things that are thereon, such as kilograms of wheat produced.

Now that is some quality philosophy shitpost.
