ale,

Your title is very silly. Do you think the situation would be better or worse with a fascist, white supremacy in charge?

ale,

Thanks. I hadn’t read it before.

ELI5 why is anarchy not "the guy with the bigger stick" making the rules?

I’m politically agnostic and have moved from a slightly conservative stance to a vastly more progressive stance (european). i still dont get the more niche things like tankies and anarchists at this point but I would like to, without spending 10 hours reading endless manifests (which do have merit, no doubt, but still)....

ale,

What if the workers disagree with each other? I’ve had the same question as OP for a long time with no answer.

ale,

Thanks for the response. A more focused question might be: how can an anarchist society reasonably resist authoritarianism? And doesn’t the whole scheme rely on greed not being a fundamental component of humanity?

ale,

They will probably read them for fun. It’s not like the oligarchs care about their people.

ale,

I’ll add that it’s not per company approval, it’s per export approval (potentially each individual item needs an approval for export to a different country) and the rules around ITAR are a bit fuzzy when it comes to technology.

ale,

By design. All according to the plan.

ale,

Isn’t Adderall basically meth? Is there a difference in how they would affect ADHD symptoms at low dose?

ale,

From another comment in this thread, at least in the US, it looks like it actually is approved for treatment of ADHD. www.accessdata.fda.gov/…/005378s028lbl.pdf

ale,

How will they make you scared and obedient if the ancient enemy is defeated? They’ll have to make up alien invasions or some shit if Russia loses too hard.

ale,

Quick! Pounce while the North is weakened!

ale,

I’m just gonna play New Vegas for the 117th time.

ale,

Our next innovation will allow you to work 48 hours per day!

Any recommendations for a career change?

I spent 8 years doing Java development, layoffs are coming soon (my second time this year! 😊), I know how hard it is to get a job out there, and I’m tired of Java. So I was wondering if anyone had any advice for pointing my career in a new direction. I’d like there to be some technical aspect to it still, which is why I...

ale,

Not an expert on Java world, and I think that’s a hard question to answer definitively. Generally, I do perceive .NET/c# as slowly growing and Java as slowly shrinking.

ale, (edited )

I am not an expert, but I think it might be worth studying the French resistance in Paris at the end of WW2.

You could also look up the Chilean resistance in the 80s. In both cases, you may find traumatic descriptions of the terrible things that happened to the captured Resistance members, so be warned.

ale,

Yeah this kind of looks like propaganda to suppress left leaning voters.

ale,

Can someone persuade me to not use systemd without using the word ‘bloat?’

ale,

Ah ok. Is that different for runit or the other typical alternatives?

ale,

My question was just curiosity. If there’s a good reason to switch to something else, I’d like to know, you know?

ale,

From reading all of these comments, I think I have to agree. It seems like systemd as “the tool” is ok (I know there’s some argument there too), but systemd as the project and ecosystem seems to go a bit against the soul of GNU and Unix.

ale,

That’s a great reason! Why use a computer at all if you can’t look cool while you use it?
