Yeah? They must loooove giving me that assignment then.

Does this run on a raspberry pi 1 or 2? I can’t remember which one I have, but I barely use it so it’d be cool to have something to use it for.

Google is still working on improving the Terminal app as well as AVF before shipping this feature. AVF already supports graphics and some input options, but it’s preparing to add support for backing up and restoring snapshots, nested virtualization, and devices with an x86_64 architecture.

This is the part I cared about. Can it run x86_64 programs, or is it just an ARM-compatible version of Debian?

If it can actually run x86_64 programs on ARM devices, then that’s kinda fucking sick and would likely help the world transition to ARM. Like, fuck Google, but this sounds like a good thing, maybe?

I wish people would give me more than two sentences. I kinda need more than two sentences to start opening up, and once I do, I will not stop talking until I’m tired. My brain will never run out of things to ramble about, so feel free to be like, “hey, can we move onto another subject?” if you’ve lost interest.

I couldn’t find the original UN article which is why I was referencing the FEE one. Also, while I quoted the bit about “empowered intellectuals” I assumed that was pro-capitalist cynicism towards education and community due to the heavily pro-capitalist slant in the rest of the FEE article. I kinda figured everyone else picked up on that too.

Thanks for the link! I’ll have to read the original in a bit.

It sounds like he just doesn’t find it funny, which is why he doesn’t want to call it satire.

Y’all should actually read the article because it seems like it’s saying something completely different from what OP is trying to make it sound like. Basically, if I understood correctly, Kent was being critical of the idea that market-led solutions (i.e. capitalism fixes hunger) are better than community-driven solutions. He was also saying that hunger is part of capitalism, and you’ll never get rid of hunger while capitalism exists, because capitalism needs to withhold resources to force people to work.

This paragraph seems to sum up the article pretty well:

In Kent’s view, one gathers, global hunger is not a complex problem that is being addressed by free market capitalism; it’s a moral one that requires empowering intellectuals like Kent to solve it.

Sorry, wrong term. Price gouging. The market is absurd and most of it is thanks to WATA’s pump-and-dump shit.

Maybe if you weren’t scalping price gouging that shit then there wouldn’t be a market for knockoffs. Personally, I don’t care if I have a knockoff or the real deal anymore. As long as I and the console can’t tell the difference, who cares?

Do it at night when people are going to bed. Send out a message to get people to check their pagers, then detonate them. There’s still a chance of collateral, but it’d be significantly lower than detonating them when people will be out in public at the cost of what I imagine would be a slightly lower chance of hitting targets.

Hezbollah uses pagers for communication. Israel intercepted shipments of pagers and rigged them with bombs. Then, an unspecified amount of time later, Israel detonated them during the day, yanno, when people would be out and about in public places. Thousands of bombs went off across Lebanon and killed and injured children, elderly people, and adults.

Of course, mainstream media is trying to pretend that Israel didn’t potentially commit what should be considered a warcrime while assholes on social media are spinning this as a masterfully precise and accurate strike that didn’t have a considerable amount of collateral (I’ve literally seen someone say “only people with something to hide would be around a pager in this day and age” verbatim), and that anyone injured or killed was a member of Hezbollah.

Like, what if one of those had been on a plane when it went off?

When ISIS plants bombs on people and detonates them in public places then it’s a bad thing. Israel does it and everyone stands, claps and tips everyone with $100% bills.

Edit: I honestly wonder if it’s only a matter of time before some IDF or Mossad shithead hijacks a plane and flies it into the Burj Khalifa.

Are you sure that’s not a microphone for videos? It’d be really weird to have a hole like that. Water should easily push itself through that hole. I honestly don’t know what you’re talking about when it comes to air pressure. I’m pretty sure your eardrums can survive close to a 1 atmosphere difference in pressure, and those are way more fragile than your phone. I’m not sure why your phone would need to normalize air pressure.

Europe is all old culture, no new culture. America is all new culture, no old culture. Yes, I know that’s not 100% true, but how many European countries have their version of Hollywood, Disney or silicon valley? Iirc india, China and Japan all have their equivalents, where’s yours?. You just don’t spend anywhere near the same amount of money on movies, music and TV. On the opposite side, European art tends to be a lot more mature, however you have to spend money promoting it if you want to compete with the US.

Ah, right. I forgot that going places just to see things was something people did.

If you’re afraid of the Red Cross suing you for using a red cross icon, just use the Swiss flag instead!

It’s okay, tbh I don’t think you’re missing out. My experience is that they’re usually badly maintained if they’re maintained at all (last time I looked at a hotel pool it was green and growing algae). The “swimmable” hotel pools are only found at really, really nice hotels.

Why do they even bother installing pools in hotels if they’re not going to maintain them? What a waste of space.

A Dreamcast controller with a modern, moddable vmu system would be sick.

Dude, I know it sounds silly, but I swear I run faster with them on hard surfaces. They’re really springy and thick socks keep them from sliding around on my feet so they’re actually not as clumsy as you’d think (or at least they don’t feel that way). I wouldn’t intentionally go running in them because I bet regularly running in them destroys your joints or something.

Though now I’m tempted to do an experiment to see if they actually make me run faster or if it just feels that way.

Also, I promise I’m not a complete fashion disaster; I only wear socks with them if I already have socks on.
