@thendrix @lain it's a faustian bargain because the afd crooks will sell out the populace in other ways. at the same time there is no way they legally can deliver on their promises and they know that.

If you are well organized, it is a healthy trait. no one would say you are "on the OCD spectrum".. but when that trait gets out of hand we would say you have OCD, and likely would be diagnosed as such.

I see (autism) ASD and ADHD as much the same way. Most people diagnosed with it who are high functioning dont really have it at all. It is just a personality trait and all in all a positive one. high-functioning ASD are just people without social hangups, good. And people with ADHD who are high-functioning are largely just amazing multi-taskers.

The harm in putting people on a spectrum is they see themselves asa diseased, broken, something that needs "consideration.. they arent, in most cases in the right proportions these "diseases" are in fact just super powers, things more people should wisht hey have really.

bonifartius,
@bonifartius@qoto.org avatar

@freemo maybe calling them super powers is a bit too much but i'd argue that those traits have had evolutionary advantage for the group - just like people without them were also filling a required role.

if they had as negative consequences as they can have in our current society, like attention "disorders" in school, these traits wouldn't have survived for this long.

@freemo didn't want to play down the usefulness! :) i only think all people have special traits or talents which help them to perform especially well on some tasks or in some environments. imho that's why humans were so successful settling in wildly different places :)

How does such a pissant get associated with sdf, all these historic computer groups are being infiltrated with prissy little bitches

@sun many of the spaces which were apolitical or best case anarchist got destroyed by bullshit identity politics. german CCC and other clubs are a shadow of their former self now. hacker ethics got replaced by virtue signalling rituals.

@sun i might add that i think this happens on purpose. hooking into the "defending the weak" mechanism is a really strong way to control people, like evidenced by what happened during covid.

hot take: autoconf is better than cmake.

bonifartius,
@bonifartius@qoto.org avatar

@cnx maybe for developing. for actual deployment it's hellish. every project invents it's own bad way to download dependencies and other stupid things. autotools based projects usually just work with dependencies installed from packages.

the solution of the cmake projects then isn't to fix the build system, but to publish docker containers or flatpaks or something equally shit.

bonifartius,
@bonifartius@qoto.org avatar

@cnx i think my problem with cmake is that it's so opaque to me.

if there is a make rule downloading stuff, i can understand what is happening and where things are going to. same for most "build.sh" like things.

with cmake there are dozens of variants of "downloading stuff from github™️", but i regularly fail to find out where things are saved/extracted to, what is downloaded, etc. all is hidden in complex cascades of rules n stuff. not fun.

cmake might be fine in principle but it does seem to invite people to do these things.

it's more food for totalitarians because you continue to enable authority. your first impulse is to call for authority to ban something you fear.

@xs4me2 @ericschutte @MobileOak @stroughtonsmith emphasis on should? :)

i very rarely see anything even remotely resembling good reporting by the biggish outlets here. it reeks of the cliques the media associate with - it's not any better than AI generated bullshit.

fwiw i think hunter thompson was absolutely right in that objectiveness is best achieved through radical subjectivity.

@freemo a few days ago a politician of a ruling party in germany said that we need more CCTV surveillance as "security is a precondition for freedom and therefor the first duty of a state".

("Denn Sicherheit ist eine Voraussetzung für Freiheit und deshalb erste Aufgabe des Staates." https://nitter.poast.org/cem_oezdemir/status/1777611751682457753#m)

the lack of mental capacity of these people is pretty concerning indeed.

bonifartius,
@bonifartius@qoto.org avatar

@freemo there were several studies in germany how surveillance impacts crime levels. the result was that aside from things stolen out of cars nothing really changes, especially not the rate of violent crimes.

bonifartius,
@bonifartius@qoto.org avatar

@freemo greater response time would mean to have cops there already and them doing their job :P

tbh, i'd much prefer common people carrying guns. stupid german gun laws don't prevent the real bad people from owning guns after all.

Masto users break down when you tell them to use linux 🐧

@gabriel most arguments in the blog post by rubenerd are kinda bs

>>Using Windows makes you a cog in the capitalist machine.
> This assumes agency. Also, no.

>> You don’t have a right to complain if you use Windows.
> Big we should improve society somewhat vibes with this.

if you aren't violently forced to use windows this is nowhere near improve society somewhat. you clearly have the agency to not use windows, albeit with consequences

>> It’s GNU/Linux.
> No comment. Wait, that’s a comment. Fsck.

good old bsd fanboyism. bsd wouldn't be here without gnu. llvm and other permissively licensed utilities are a pretty recent development. bsds are fine, not acknowledging gnu is just ungrateful.
