Lefty Nemesis
    1. Anti capitalism is just anti capitalism. That's not a theory for how a society free from capitalism should work. Those theories will of course be diverse, and there will be disagreement.

    2. Divide and conquer works for detroying social movements, and is one of the ruling classes favorite weapons of class warfare. It's easy to get agitators to derail the conversation or movement as a whole. There are fundamental differences in what anti capitalists believe should be done and how power should be distributed. I don't believe all leftists think the same thing, but I believe that the vast majority of "leftist infighting" is just agitation by the ruling class.

  • alternative to OneTab?
  • Dude! Sidebery is THE best session manager around. You create snapshots and have tons of configuration over how and when to take them. Mine backs up every 5 minutes and keeps a few days worth. Every time some other fuckery has caused me to lose my all my tabs, sidebery has had a perfectly working backup. And it keeps the exact window layout you had. It’s by far the best

    On Fast-Travel in video games

    I know this isn't strictly related to patient gaming, but I think it fits the ethos of this community and I can't think of a better choir to preach to.

    The director of Dragon's Dogma II made the following statement regarding limiting or removing fast travel

    >Just give it a try. Travel is boring? That's not true. It's only an issue because your game is boring. All you have to do is make travel fun

    I think this is fairly compelling. Though I will say, I don't think the answer is to limit fast travel. The real limitations developers should be placing should be on filler quests that have you traveling from point a to point b and then back with some slight pretext as to why you're doing so. It's not fast travel that's the issue so much as mission design and the manners in which the player is compelled to cross the game world.

    Metroidvanias are a great example of how to allow for fast travel while still making traveling around the game world compelling. The latest Metroid, Metroid Dread, was really fantastic in this aspect. You have this sense of progression and exploration even as you're backtracking.

    Would removing fast travel from Metroid Dread have made it any better? I don't think so. The inclusion of fast travel feels thematic. You have to work for it so it feels like an achievement to unlock. It augments the game.

    So in short, I agree with some of the sentiment expressed, with regards to lazy gameplay design being boring. I disagree with the opinion that fast travel necessarily is boring, or causes lazy desing.

    This looks like an amazing little box that can do almost anything. I'm wondering how people feel about the pricepoint

    $679 early bird

    $839 msrp

    I'd love to grab one to use as a router/firewall, plus run any homelabbing containers I have on my NAS.

    How's the value proposition stack up? Price looks great to me considering the cpu and connectivity it offers.

    Edit: Additional info

    serve the home sponsored video sponsored but still really really informative. There's a section near the end going through a tons of ideas of how to utilize the pci slot, including epanding nvme storage, external sas, extra networking etc. seems you can get over 40gb extra throughput from that port.

    The Problem With Applying to College

    It's long but really, really good. If you only watch one part, watch the part about sports/private schools and acceptance into ivy leagues. Completely mind blowing

    Joachim Raff - String Quartet No. 3, Op.136 (1866)

    Sharing another fantastic composition by Joachim Raff. Bartje Bartmans has been uploading his entire string quartets, and I believe there's quite a bit more music by him on the channel.

    I absolutely loved this right from the start. The texture and polyphony is just intoxicating right off the bat. Raff is highly underrated considering ingenuity of his works

    Zemlinsky - String Quartet No. 1

    I just love the part starting at around 30 seconds where the strings kinda sound like they're whispering some sort of secret phrase. it's magical

    Ordinary Things with some pretty reactionary takes and strange praise for Milei

    Anybody else watch this channel? There's some good videos but I often get very liberal/ancap vibes from this dude. His section on Milei is really fucking weird. He craps harder on climate protesters than Milei. He seems like a Louis Rossman or Johnny Harris type youtuber that's only coincidentally aligned with leftists. Tell me I'm not crazy here.

    Also he like, shits on Hasanabi in his section on israel/gaza which is on its own some hard core radical centrist garbage. Am I crazy for seeing this dude as pretty reactionary/liberal?

    Trying to put isp router in bridge mode, very much in over my head

    Hi all,

    I thought it would be as simple as flicking a switch to change from router to bridge mode and plug in my own router, and that couldn't have been further from the truth :(

    My ISP provides a huawei hg8145v5. I ordered a static IP from them as well. They gave me full access to the router to be able to put it in bridge mode. The router I'd like to handle all actual routing is an asus zenwifi xd8.

    The setup I'm going for is ISP ONT/Router > Asus Zenwifi XD6 -> TrendNet 10g unmanaged switch -> NAS, PC, server

    So in the isp router, I set it to bridge mode and connected it to the wan port of the asus router, then connected LAN 1 of the asus router to my 10g switch. basically just inserting the asus router in the chain that had been working before.

    I had no internet at all. Strangely, the asus reports that the internet is connected, but the speed test on the qos section cannot connect whatsoever.

    I thought it might have something to do with the static IP, so I tried setting the static IP assigned to me to the WAN IP, used the same subnet mask the isp router had assigned, and set the isp router as the gateway. Same exact thing. Basically everything I tried resulted in either a "connected" status yet no internet, or a "disconnected" status.

    I'd really appreciate some help. I really though I'd just change the isp router to bridge mode and I'd be smooth sailing but I've basically blown up my network. Also for some reason, the windows network tab is not finding my NAS anymore. I can only connect by typing its local ip or mapping a drive, but I used to be able to go to the network in window explorer and my nas would show up there and I could just access everything I wanted that way. anyway, I'd appreciate any help. i've been at this for literally the entire day and am only now reaching out for help. Thanks!

    OrgPad is an excellent mix of mindmap and pkms. It even has transclusion support. You can put an entire mindmap inside of a node within a mindmap 🤯

    orgpad.com The Universal Digital Whiteboard

    Get an idea, realize it, and present it to others. All in one tool.

    The Universal Digital Whiteboard

    cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/8295637

    > Today I discovered a tool called OrgPad which has a lot of potential. Unlike all the major players in the mindmap space right now, each node isn't just a heading, but an actual piece of content, with a title. Each node can be expanded or collapsed so you can focus on what you want to while maintaining context. > > It's also got an amazing interface that's incredibly polished. > > I've also just discovered TheBrain, which is also a delightful mindmap tool, but the cost is prohibitive at around $20/month just to sync across devices, the interface isn't as slick as mindmeister or xmind, in fact it looks ancient. But it's very powerful and feels really good to use. It also has the benefit of making notes a first class object instead of a tiny icon on a node which the more popular mindmaps do. But the win goes to org mode for being superior in most ways, at a fraction of the cost. > > > >
