Has nothing to do at all with Australian culture.
Wrong. Australians (indigenous or not) don’t own Latin language, and the word means peoples that existed somewhere before colonizers.
Thus Aboriginal is a name and aboriginal is a descriptor.
It’s like superstitious people in Russia avoid calling anything “last”, using the word for “fringe” instead, and pretend that it’s impolite to use it.
Being 90% corrupt gives you more territories than being 99% corrupt
Dunno, in my childhood machine-translated things possessed some charm. Or when translations were by clueless people. Druids in Star Wars instead of droids, for example.
Were it 90% of what Pentagon did, the rest of the world bar China and India would be US territories.
- Grok, summarize our civilization’s positive achievements in the last century.
- Heil Hitler!
- Test passed.
Lossy compression of sunlight?
Definitely. Even some abstract ideologies do.
Say, in ancap finite resources not created by humans (territory, numbers, technologies) are treated as collective property ideally, but since it’s impossible to create anything without them, as private property when mixed with labor. Which means that unused territory belongs to a person who claims it and uses it for something.
Actually that’s exactly how it works, never did it help against a weaponized technology to yell how immoral it is, while adopting it sometimes did.
Well, yes, I got your point and also
We definitely have all that!
TBH sometimes it’s better to have all that explicitly than implicitly and deny it, like most western societies do, because, well, a human society can’t morally raise above the human limitations.
Depends on the point in time really. I meant “collectivism” in the bolshevik sense, the kind somewhat preventing horizontal mobility because why treat a person separately from their collective.
That’s why Seagate is the last word in the title.
You’d go broke. Of course it’s all Linux, family archives and DNA test data, BTC blockchain, backed up FOSS projects, archives of Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg and OpenStreetMap, and of course - POVRay renders.
I think both.
Danger in that world was on the sidewalks and unintended. Danger in this world is on the main pathways the most, and intended by its administrators.
Edgy vibes of that time seemed more like when you reinforce your right to call a president of your country a little bitch. Or like how it wasn’t traditionally welcomed to physically punish kids in many cultures in the Caucasus - because teaching fear of punishment also piggybacks teaching fear of enemy. BTW, this was also a principle in Dragomirov’s writings on how teaching should be done in the military ; his approaches to actual warfare were kinda archaic even in his own time (basically “straight at them” bayonet shock attacks), but the parts on didactics are good.
The pop music I hated then and hate now.
So yes.
No, the kit was for PS2, PS3 could run distributions intended for it without modifications, I think (maybe with some firmware changes), but those were by enthusiasts, while the PS2 Linux was provided by Sony.
I first got into programming via Basic on the ZX Spectrum, and I do worry how future generations will get into it now they’ve all gone back to phones instead of PCs.
Maybe the future generations will realize the difference between “can” and “should”, and there’ll arrive a niche for simpler PCs. I hope.
Funny, I miss that exactly. The feeling of spring\summer air and the fragrance of jasmine\lilac\linden\freshly mowed grass and the clouds, and ICQ animations with cats scratching your screen and “hasta la vista baby” and all that, and the Web when it was actually hypertext on hundreds of pages hand-crafted all with real people.
And yeah, going to friends to play Tekken, and them coming to play SW: RotS. Watching “A Nightmare on Elm Street” in a summer camp. Older girls watching “Charmed”.
It also looked so cool and, a rumor had it, could run Linux (it could, but only the fat models and with a hard drive sold separately as part of a kit, and only a specific kind of Linux with Sony’s patches, and slowly as hell, but)
I thought “gnostic vibe”, but yes.
Repeat: It’s a Latin word with no exclusive connection to Australia. And don’t try teaching others how to talk, especially when you are clearly wrong.
