  • Why would Putin want one of his biggest sources of oil gone? Please, the “he works for Putin” rhetoric might have been true or at least made sense during his first administration, but now? No, this is a full GOP imperialist move, with a touch of Trumpist megalomania. It’s what the right-wing-led US has historically done for the better part of the last century. Tons of very powerful people in very powerful places will be getting a ton more money out of this, and Putin isn’t one of them.


  • I think xhamster or one of those pages, they have AI subtitles I believe. They automatically pick up the language and give you English subtitles by default.

    Edit: to clarify, I don’t usually pay attention to the dialogue unless its unscripted amateur stuff. Two porn actors reading the corniest lines possible? Fuck no. A random-ass couple being perverted and uploading themselves online cause they’re pervs, and you can hear their perv talks? Fuck yes, sign me the fuck up, let’s all be pervs together, the way Lenin intended.








  • They said they had fixed inventory loss from patches. Imagine my surprise when I log in and all my in-game-bought vehicles are gone, all my Grade A ship components are gone, and pretty much all loot from the Vanduuls missions is gone, but somehow my paid Époque armor set got duplicated.

    The love/hate relationship with this fucking game is unreal.


  • Nah, it’s no psy-op. People truly hold these beliefs. I can’t blame them for it after the time they’ve had with Maduro, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s a belief held by the majority of Venezuelans. In Honduras, people are celebrating the Trump pardon of our narcotrafficker ex-president, saying Trump did the right thing, and cursing the current administration as if it could hold a candle to the crimes we saw during the other guy’s time in power. It’s unhinged, and yet it’s no less true. I can at least sympathize with the Venezuelans who think like that a ton more than I can with my own countrymen, bunch of fucking idiots that they are.

    Edit: the perfect English is a byproduct of living in the shadow of the empire. Any chances of financial freedom can only be achieved by working for US companies. That binds you to a race to learn and be good at English as a second language. It’s probably true of any decently-sized city south of the US border. Those who don’t learn English are destined to end up serving those who do end up learning English.

    Wait so you built a pool using removable USB media, and was surprised it didn’t work? Lmao

    That’s like being angry that a car wash physically hurt you because you drove in on a bike, then using a hose on your bike and claiming that the hose is better than the car wash.

    Zfs is a low level system meant for pcie or sata, not USB, which is many layers above sata & pcie. Rsync was the right choice for this scenario since it’s a higher level program which doesn’t care about anything other than just the data and will work over USB, Ethernet, wifi, etc., but you gotta understand why it was the right choice instead of just throwing shade at one of the most robust filesystems out there just because it wasn’t designed for your specific usecase.
