I agree with this. It should be mandatory to link to sources. Too many times have I seen screenshots like this that turned out to be a fake/edit/shitpost.

Is there a specific date of when they will federate with us that I'm not aware of? Because I don't see anything other than "soon(tm)".

Also there are a lot of people in that thread who don't seem to understand what lemmy/federation even is or how it works. Despite how worrisome some of their users and rules can be (CW on meat and milk products? That has to be ironic, right?) I'll still welcome all Hexbears if they follow the rules. I look forward to the day where our communities can finally interact with each other

Of course 2 of them have a K-On profile pic.

Stalin being “one of history’s most brutal dictators” is imperialist drivel; even internal CIA documents stated that the USSR had collective leadership.

Here is one such document for anyone that is curious: https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP80-00810A006000360009-0.pdf

It claims to support the VisionFive2 SBC/JH7110 SoC which is made by StarFive.

Same. I have all my windows covered with a mosquito net because otherwise I'd have them lurking around everywhere. Hate those bloodsuckers.

I just copied the title from CGTN minus the text in the parenthesis.

Still won’t make me abandond my Stalinist Stallmanist lifestylism

Same.

Don't install Kali, Redox, ReactOS or Linux from Scratch as a beginner. Kali is a pen-testing distro that runs everything as the root user by default. It should not be used for anything outside of testing network infrastructure and should not be installed on anything but a USB drive. Besides all the software that is on Kali is also available on any other Linux distro. Redox is still in its infancy and not very usable on real hardware due to a lack of drivers and support. Similar story with ReactOS, except it's basically WINE but with a FOSS WinNT Kernel underneath. ReactOS can't even run 64-Bit applications yet (although there is an effort to get that working). With ReactOS you still get all the baggage and questionable design decisions from Windows, since that's what it's trying to mimic. Lastly, Linux from Scratch is a means to make your own Linux distro from scratch. It's not a framework, or a distro, or a set of tools but a piece of literature.

I'm amazed that embarrassing shit like this gets any amount of upvotes here on lemmygrad. Anyone who opposes Russia for "suddenly invading a peaceful, sovereign Nation" and unironically calls Putin a Warlord, Oligarch, Richest Man, etc. is not a Marxist and definitely not a Comrade but a reactionary who parrots arguments from western media. I smell wrecker.

Imagine using Windows LOL

• No focusing on electoralism and bourgeois democracy. If a party that calls itself "marxist" tells people to vote that's a huge red flag.

• Anti-Imperialism and Anti-Capitalism are an absolute must. If a "marxist" party doesn't recognize that capital is our common enemy and must be destroyed then they're a lost cause.

• Revolutionary. A marxist party has to recognize that socialism can only be achieved via overthrowing the capitalist ruling class and implementing a dictatorship of the proletariat.

• No Anti-AES propaganda (examples: siding with the Anti-China narrative on Xinjiang or Africa, saying the DPRK is a monarchy where people have no "freedoms", etc.). A marxist party should recognize AES countries for what they are, as any marxist should.

• No Imperialist/CIA propaganda (examples: Putin is richest man and has a mansion the size of a village, Putin suddenly invaded a peaceful nation for no reason, Stalin was a gruesome tyrant/dictator who caused a famine, Lenin was a mass murderer, etc. )

I'm at a point where any computer (including smart devices) that doesn't run a GNU/Linux or BSD derivative where I, the user, have full control over is completely useless to me. Proprietary OSs are so limiting, they're like a plastic toy hammer for kids in comparison to GNU/Linux, which is like a real metal hammer.

Voice of Korea does in fact have a TLS certificate. You may have to specify https:// manually though.

It's still going to make western web browsers mad because It's technically self-signed. Also it expired almost 2 years ago.

I once caught a back and forth like that. It was all about lemmy devs not wanting to implement hexbear's gender pronouns on avatars. It was a completely pointless discussion where one person was convinced that lemmy is run by bigots.

One of the things I dislike about hexbear is how US-centric people on there tend to be. Sometimes I feel like I'm on reddit due to the amount of identity politics, pop culture references and hyper-specific memes that only someone from the Empire would really get.

Comrade, if you put up a torrent for sharing the scanned pages please post a magnet link so I can add it to my seedbox.

I know a lot of C, some C++, some PostgreSQL and very little JS. But unfortunately I don't know anything about rust beyond writing a "Hello World" program. I am open to studying the language more. And I have absolutely no experience in Web Development. I would really like to contribute but I don't have a Github account and I don't plan on making one, since Github is owned by Micro$oft.

I only ever see people who work on proprietary software make this argument. For FOSS this is a non-issue. If you have the source code available you can just compile it against the libs on your system and it will just work In most cases unless there was a major change in some lib's API. And even then you can make some adjustments yourself to make it work. Distro maintainers tend to do this.

So with, rust/Redox, does that use a different language for the terminal than other distros?

It means that the RedoxOS system is written in Rust (Kernel, Drivers, Userspace, etc.). Redox itself is still just a POSIX compatible UNIX-like System similar to Linux. Which means you can run things like Bash on Redox just like on Linux. But unlike Linux or BSD, both of which are Monolithic, Redox follows a Micro-kernel design. For the average user this doesn't mean much really. But I wouldn't use RedoxOS as it is right now since it's still in its early stages of development. It runs on a limited set of hardware and is still pretty rough around the edges.

If you just want an OS to use for things like web browsing, programming or writing documents then any up-to-date Linux distro will be your best bet. They all use the same software, with some minor exceptions. The difference is in the design.

The DPRK is a great example of a socialist society without advertisements. The only kind of advertising that makes sense is propaganda.
