nigga this update just broke ly and made me switch to fucking lightdm
>>
>>107553703
I've never heard of ly but just looked it up, is that what I'm seeing up there? What is handling those datas that you have in the top and bottom "bars" (which don't seem to be true bars in the conventional sense). What was the update that broke it?
>>
>>107553736
Top bar is i3blocks, which uses the output of shell commands, can be styled with css, and has limited features for making interactive objects.

Bottom bar is i3status, which grabs system information and formats the output, using format strings, similar to something like the date command.

Ly provides a login screen as you boot into the computer. I do not have a screenshot of my ly setup, and I overwrote it with the .pacnew version of my config file in a panic trying to troubleshoot my problem. It is a tty program that provides a tui login screen instead of something graphical like lightdm.
>>
>>107553736
There's apparently something going on with my xinit as well, where a bunch of keys are being referred to in an unnamed file that xinit can't make any sense of, so I can't use startx, either.

short for fascist. Back in the day I was posting the N word and racial slurs all over /g/ + alt right chud propaganda. Jokes about Moon Man, Hitler and Willian Pierce and waging war against Antifa. But it really was nuanced even back when I was a chud posting I still hated ICE and zionist with a passion, my head wasn't connecting the dots that it was harmful.

I also used my GIMP plugins to say the most vile things possible and created a bullshit us vs them story that Coraline Ada Ehmke was out to destroy everything in FOSS and we must stop her. Its still true that she got many corporations interested in her ideas but there is no evidence she alone is responsible for the corporatization of FOSS. its More likely corporations water down the FOSS community because they want free professional labor slaves and corporations would stilll be shitting up the FOSS community, milking nerds for free labor even without her influence.

One seemingly small thing that I had an appreciation for in the original pic was the bottom "bar" showing your WiFi connection. I personally never have any way of seeing mine without manually checking it in a terminal using iwlist because all that I have installed for connecting is ifupdown and wpasupplicant. Something I'd like to do is figure out some kind of very small monitor window where I could see a few things that I can change in and out quickly and easily. It will be very tough for me to find something that will beat terminal commands, but I'd like to. It would have to be light af among other factors. Anyway, I very much appreciated those i3 "bars" (but would never have bars or "bars" on my screen).

well back then I was dumb as fuck. I viewed the entire world as an epic battle of us vs them. A complete black and white bullshit fiction on how to rescue the FOSS community.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14XSzWT4vI0

If we really want to stop corporations from dilluting hacker culture we need look more deeply at problems and not make up epic narratives of battling others. This right here (pic attached) is the deepest problem that requires nuance to solve not blanket government fix it solutions or an epic battle against GNOME. (that makes no sense, they are part of the solution)

by "4chan culture" he means a sojak riding a giant dragon dildo saying GASSY or that dumbass meme where two onions dudes are pointing at something with exclamatory faces. that is the only culture this website has along with frog spam. Back in 2006 people on this website and YTMND would open photoshop and make epic memes. no one does that anymore, just AI slop which usually consist of two male community avatars making out.

GIMP became good on 3.0.2/3.0.4 but it became good too late, after AI culture. If GIMP 3.0.2+ existed back in 2012-2019 it would break the internet, but now its nothing special for most people.

But those place are gay because they require accounts and have account name "reputation" and internet points, and heavy moderation. I don't have any interest in what goes on there, who is there, or anything to do with them at all. If there is any crucial cultural aspect to this place it's that it doesn't have those things. The lack of those things, in and of itself, is what makes this place what is should be, needs to be, and is. That's literally it, and whatever demographics, attitudes, "vibes", etc. that emerge from it organically is its true culture. Certain types of people are drawn to this place because of those things above all other aspects, and within those certain types, there's a vast range of sub-types, which is a feature and not a bug.

Two things
1) the younger you are, the higher your ideological flexibility is. which makes sense, especially when you take into consideration the fact that younger people are exploring what it means to be themselves. this leads to a sort of ideological ambivalence wherein individuals sympathize with views that are often seen in opposition to each other.
2) the older you get, the more solidified your ideological beliefs become. you start out like a pendulum swinging back and forth and settle somewhere in between the two extremes.

plus, mutualism is more like an aspect of a broader ideology than an ideology by itself.
>>
>>107559091
This is all reasonably accurate, but also the older you get the more experience you've had, and the more observations you've made. This doesn't necessarily result in forming "better" or more "realistically accurate" ideologies/world views, because literally everyone is too retarded to do that, but it does mean you might have major relative SHIFTS in your own individual ones.

Younger also tends to think we/they know better than we/they actually do, without yet knowing what it's even actually like to have many decades of experience/observation. When I was in my 20s I certainly had no accurate pictures of what it would be like to be me pushing 60, including what all I would experience/observe over the course of that time, both internally and externally.

You'll always be RETARDED, period, but you'll be DIFFERENTLY RETARDED over the course of your life.

>>107558629
because I was already leaning in that direction before, but I was trying to hybridize alt right views with neo mutualism and it ultimately failed. You can't merge incompatible ideologies.

>>107559091
I meant this mutualism (reciprocal society, interest free banking, common land, strong occupancy and use property rights)
not the enviormental dependency thing animals do.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutualism_(economic_theory)

FOSS is most compatible with mutualism, probably more so then anarcho communism but it honestly works with both. However there is one ideology FOSS has no compatiblity with. That is the ideology of Lunduke. Zionism, Right wing bootlicker loyaltism and shitting on trans peopole. That has no common history here. If you dig back far enough you see Anarcho Communist and Mutualist Individualist Anarchist traditions split around the time of the First workers international over the centralization vs decentralization, collectivism vs individual rights debate. Even Wikipedia points out exactly what happens

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Workingmen%27s_Association
[italics]The initial ideological struggle was between the communists or Marxists, centred around Karl Marx on the General Council, and the mutualists or followers of Pierre-Joseph Proudhon. The communists successfully displaced the mutualists as the dominant ideological trend at the Brussels Congress in 1868.[/italics]

Karl Marx, the guy who said lets centralize everything and put it in the hands of state (nationalization) won public opinion. With FOSS we aren't centralizing and putting software in the hands of the state, we are decentralizing and giving individuals max control of the software. The code repositories are held in common by non-state organizations voluntarily doing so, but the software is in the hands of the individual and the individual can do whatever they want with the software as long as they follow the GPL3s reciprocal contract.

your smod broke, for your info, either that or you didn't set up the window effects. if its the smod break, i'm betting it's a pacman -Syu, so basically, you have to recompile and reapply every update

>>
>>107559922
hold on, let me rephrase the tip for >>107559721
basically, the reason the 7 (and vista) theme break is usually because of a pacman -Syu which involves a kde update (kwin or libplasma), you need to recompile atp/vtp every system update.
as for the smod window effect, it's probably improperly set up or something, you should check window effects, if they are on, running compile.sh with sudo and rerunning the install sh scripts helped me, setting up atp/vtp is weird and inconsistent though

I grew up making Moon Man memes "Moon Man killing minorities with text to speech voice describing vulgar extreme violence.

I also was exposed to music like Moraiku and Mr. Bond and then fell down a rabbit hole of far right podcast

>Mutualism
that is an easy one. I was always loosely aware of it. (at least since 2014) If you trace "anarcho" capitalism's lineage back far enough before Murray Rothbard, many historical figures Rothbard cites are Mutualist. Figures like Josiah Warren, Lysander Spooner, Benjamin Tucker, Pierre Joseph Proudhon. These guys would have found Anarcho capitalism as a highly modified uncognizable distorted version of their own ideology. Rothbard basically took their ideology and turned it into something else. Rothbard took the works of Spooner, Tucker and Proudhon, extracted the anti state rhetroic and property rights defenses, but left out all the stuff about communalism, workers rights and worker co-ops.

I'll be honest Spooner may have been partially compatible with certain Rothbardian AnCap ideas, but AnCaps are really pushing it trying to make him into a figure he wasn't, there is no way in hell Spooner would be chill about capitalist firms dominating in a multi billion dollar non-tangible asset economy. 90% of assets are intangible and its all a battle of corporations using the state to wipe out small buisness. He would have probably conceded his views on IP if he encoutered with today's world.

Anarcho-Capitalism came from Molinari's Production of Security.
>These guys would have found Anarcho capitalism as a highly modified uncognizable distorted version of their own ideology.
Not really. Both Mutualism and Ancap are fundamentally voluntarist, individualist ideologies; they differ in *preferred and expected* property norms, and they could very well coexist in different communities.
What is the most dubious "anarcho"? Probably ancom, or anyone that hinges on collectivism that doesn't emerge voluntarily. Or "anarcho feminism" lol, when women are the ones that want nanny states the most.

Yeah I agree they are both voluntaryist. But Tucker's ideas on property rights are different like you noted. Proudhon and Tucker were strongly against absentee ownership and patents. Mutualist would clash with AnCaps over a boss who owns a factory he never set foot in. AnCaps landlords would be demanding payments and Mutualist anarchist would argue its irelevant unless they personally maintain the property they rent out. This is a bit of a stretch, but some vulgar AnCaps would probably be ok with poor people dying in the streets acting like "the free market is wiping out excesses"

Mutualist would refuse to consider absentee ownership and patents property. Their courts would ignore the landlords demands for payments, and patent violations. Unless he personally unkeeps the property. The An Caps would have no communal bank either. The people who manage the factory would be the true owners in Proudhon/Tucker's system, but according to AnCaps the owners would be the CEO who never seet for in the premises or a bunch of corporation share holders who fund from afar and require a state to upload their absentee contract from people who occupy the building. The reason collectivism is so harshly criticized in IA literature is because Josiah Warren had to personally put up with the pain of sharing tangible resources at Owen's commune, FOSS isn't the same because you can make a copy of GIMP or LibreOffice, but you cannot make a copy of a cow for steak or anything tangible. and yeah, I agree with you some anarcha feminism I seen are crypto nanny statist, its all biology the need for a care taker husband instinct is being replaced by a nanny state.

We were libertarian because we just wanted to be left alone. Then we learned they wont leave us alone and for true freedom to flourish an environment must first be created where that's possible.

Not just Grok and DeepSeek but every AI I discussed with agrees with me that Engel's view on the family is largely unsupported by anthropoligical evidence. He just made up a narrative on "prehistoric communism" Real history shows the extended family devolved into the nuclear family because of industrial capitalism making Engel's core claim of capitalism expanding the power of the family DEAD WRONG. Capitalist consumerism and wage labor weakens the family structure. The only thing Engel's is right about is inhertiance being tied to family.

The extended family devolves into the nuclear family and the nuclear family devolves into a Funko Pop collecting consumer and capitalism is to blame for weaking the family. Which paints a radically different picture of reality, and don't even get me started on how Lenin's vanguard party lead to authoritarian death camps. Marxism doesn't work, we should put marxist literature in the library's fiction section next to the Bible, or maybe horror books due to all the lifes lost.

Tools don’t replace thinking; they redistribute cognitive labor across systems. Confusing that shift with intellectual decline is a category error. Humans have always extended their minds through external aids—language, writing, math, software—and each time the same complaint resurfaces. The medium changes, the thinking adapts, and the criticism remains stuck in place.
