  • I don’t think I agree if I read this correctly. I’ll specific as to how I understand it.

    If I have opinion a, and that’s the majority opinion, and any other opinion gets censored, I think I’m fine with that. Hard disagree. I wanna expose myself to nuance and other opinions. Of course there’s a time and place when people hate you for nuance and specific opinions but censorship implies a legal framework and enforcement. Sure, there’s a lot of majority opinions I hold but I don’t want other opinions to get censored or punished on most topics. I wanna hear and learn new things.

    Example of something I want censorship on: if someone just repeats NS dog whistles in a clear attempt to instigate, I think it might be good to censored them / punish them in some way. Not in a murderer way, but in a “do you know what you’re saying and can you grasp what it means?” way.

    Example of something I don’t want censorship on: opinions political or societal systems. In fact I love discussing different ones, what they bring to the table, how they worked in practice and how they are bad so we can tweak them. On fact I invite people to tell me how capitalism itself is awesome, so we can discuss what we feel needs to be part of a healthy society and maybe we come up with novel ideas.

    I guess if you wanna say “there’s some censorship that’s good” I might actually agree but that’s way more of a narrow statement than what you’re saying here.



  • I use AI quite a bit for when I have to deal with something again that doesn’t have a simple documentation or stack overflow / reddit thread, and I know all too well I will never need agentic anything.

    The one most useful AI for coding is supermaven, which is literally just auto complete plus but it doesn’t just do things, it works like any other tab completion.

    Pretty sure no software dev at windows has ever really given these things a proper workout and still found them essential. Windows is really out here advertising Linux.







  • I thought we were over this tough guy talk already.

    You can live a depressing life where you tell yourself any emotion towards your current situation is not to be shown otherwise you are weak and you need to be strong.

    Or you can also accept that life is complex, feelings are valid, we are social creatures, real mental health means being vulnerable and the strongest people are the ones that can be vulnerable.

    You are complaining because people are vulnerable. You know what? That’s the most respectable shit, to talk about deep fears and strong feelings on camera, while those people know there’s some easily irritable people like you out there who “can’t stand the weak”.

    I had so many opportunities in my life to become numb, choose to suck it up, never talk about things, maybe become violent or insane, but the hardest and most sensible choice was always to be vulnerable, and everyone who doesn’t have the guts to choose that is a different kind of weak. And because I am not like you I don’t hate weak people, I listen to them, I learn from them and help them improve likewise.

    TL;DR that is one of the most ignorant takes I’ve heard in a while.










  • Gonna emphasize this as well.

    Whatever you are trying to do, kali is not built for tasks that need a dedicated GPU. If you’re using AI, Ubuntu might be the best option, if it’s gaming then bazzite or cachy can be a solid choice - even steamos. But there are a multitude of reasons not to expose your GPU to Kali use cases.

    I understand there is probably things you can not tell us about OP, but just be warned that you are introducing unnecessary points of failure to your opsec (ideally kali should be run in a VM, which I don’t think it is here) and vice-versa you are exposing your GPU to some unmitigated risk depending on your setup, making your GPU a potential casualty in the worst case. At that point the compatibility issues and extensive setup of your GPU in Kali might as well become side-issue.

    I really hope you are absolutely sure about this.
