  • I’m beginning to think all the tarrifs and counter tarrifs are part of a larger plan to simply destroy (rob) whatever assets/worth anyone has, and to cause absolute economic calamity throughout the entire order.

    Nothing anyone is doing is benefitting any of the citizenry of any of the nations involved.

    The only thing that is a constant these days is the progressive meltdown and eventual collapse of western societies.

    People are starving. Jobs are disappearing by the thousands. Homelessness is soaring. Food is 3x cost of 5 years ago. Crops are failing. Corporations keep burning the planet. There are bubbles in ai, bank loans, banks themselves, real estate, etc. Nazis walk among us.

    The rich and their cronies are playing the long con.

    Doug is not anti trump or pro Canada.

    He is a parasite on the wellbeing of the (not billionaire) people.








  • Does nobody use info?

    So much more in depth than any manpage.

    Granted it doesn’t contain every app installed, but it gives very detailed and very verbose explanations, examplea, options, use cases, caveats, warnings, etc, for all of the most essential commands and functions

    $ info
    

    In the program these are basic commands :

    -I # sets searching to always case insensitive -very necessary (upper case I)
    
    / # search for pattern
    
    n # search forward
    N # search back
    

    You can also search from command line using

    Info -k [pattern]
    






  • The greedy make the stupid do the things the stupid do.

    They could just as easily make the stupid happy.

    So, sure, we should make sure the greedy are executed immediately next time.

    (Would that make us evil?)

    There does need to be some immediate consequence to the willing act of wanting to make others suffer, whether directly , or by manipulating the minds of others.

    Evil doesn’t necessarily have to be religious, BTW:

    The concept of evil has been a theme of debate since the ancient Greek, where Plato argued that evil was a result of ignorance and Aristoteles saw morality as a guide for education and politics. Nietzsche claimed that evil was a dangerous concept that was created by the church, while Hannah Arendt underlined the banality of evil by highlighting “thoughtlessness” that frequently justify evil acts. From a neurobiological perspective, studies assessing individuals with neuro-psychiatric conditions associated with evil-related behavioral abnormalities have been suggesting a potential role of frontal and limbic structures, as well as of the serotonergic system. However, several of these studies assessed presumed correlates of evil, such as antisocial personality disorder or impulsive-aggressive behavior.

  • Fair.

    But, nvidia (the largest by weight/volume/value on each of the indexes) would be almost nothing without the ai hype, and the loss of Chinese contracts will see it plunge regardless of a bubble.

    Google, ms, and apple have added nothing of worth to their products while pumping billions to their ai surveillance bots.

    All told, the value of the indexes will plummet like Wile E. Coyote when cartoon reality kicks in.

    The bottom, however, will hit much harder than he ever felt.
