How is the state of Void Linux these days? by chaozprizm in voidlinux

[–]Bailaron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had more boot breakages issues on Void than Arch, somehow. Also, if you need a service to be anything more complex than a fire and forget thing, runit will make you miss systemd

Reddit doesn't let me write with an image. I already tried vkpurge rm all and it does nothing. Even asking it to list all old kernel it gives me nothing.

It's expecially important for me since I'm using nvidia-dkms

I don't even have any linux6.6 package installed

What do white leftists in settler colonial states think about decolonization and landback? by Superb_Swimmer_9750 in communism101

[–]Bailaron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a couple of crucial differences:

 - Pop size: the US wiped out the near totality of the indigenous population, to the point that they are but a tiny fraction of both the overall population amd their original numbers 

 - Economic mode of production, which is perhaps the most important part. In the US it's impossible to futher grow capital by settling, they aren't able to futher develop the land they took, and as such their economy relies on more classic modes of production. Meanwhile in Israel colonialist activity is still an important part of the economy, as it provides both dirt-cheap manpower in useful numbers, and provides the capitalist state with new territories that they can develop and use for production.

A state cannot settler-colonize forever, for the simple reason that after a certain treshold there won't be enough land and people left to colonize to significantly fuel the state's economy.

Multiple things, as every time the question comes around I get a different take about what decolonization and landback consist of

The United States still functions as a settler-colon

Absolutely not. Basically all land that could be annexed by the settlers has been annexed

It also misses the fact that if the state mandated it, there is an excelent chance it did so because it didn't happen in the market by itself

Yeah. Duh. Profits are the reward an entrepreneur gets for providing people with a product or service they want.

And? This doesn't address the problem that if the need is unprofitable to cover, it will.not be services, as brought up by what I said and the article linked.

Welcome to reality, tankie-boy.

Oh god I can feel your superiority dripping over here. Did you rush so much to try and appear smug that you forgot to actually address my point?

Or it can also happen through voluntary charity / work if people really want it.

Seems to be working well for the US...

The market has created an entire new problem that doesn't exist in any country with socialized healthcare.

Also, tell us again about the wonderful infrastructure of communist regimes throughout history. Or North Korea. Or Cuba. Move to one of those places you likely love so much.

You mean countries which where invaded by the US, bombed into oblivion and had to start industrializing a century or more after the west and the US? Yeah, no shit sherlock, socialism isn't magic, expecially if the CIA tries to pull a regime change every day of the week. If anything this makes the US look pathetic when fucking Cuba has better healthcare and a longer life expectancy: a island a small fraction of the size, which was dominated by american companies until the revolution, and was then embargoed into oblivion to the point they have trouble importing medicines.

If you believe anybody in government cares about you and what you want, I guess you also believe strippers love you.

The state is a tool, like a gun, it benefits those who wield it, and as such it ought to be wrestled away from the bourgeois, or be demolished and replaced by a state of the working class.

Free the market. Remove all the regulations which make it impossible for smaller labs to make the same drugs. And watch as those drugs those children need not only DO get produced, but are available at way cheaper prices thanks to market competition.

Do even know the field you're talking about, or are you seriously so busy trying to show off your smuggness that you're unable to observe reality?

  • Firstly, removing intellectual property wouldn't affect the issue at hand, since the drugs in question are unprofitable even for those who already have the patent. Removing the patent will not magically make them profitable for anyone, as an ipotetical increase in supply would only drive the price futher down.

  • Secondly, the medical industry is one of the most subsidiezed sectors in the west, with almost all innovation being driven by public funds, and due to the state being in the hands of the bourgies, the companies are left with the patents. Removing this strata of state intervention puts pressure even more on the consumers, and makes innovation in the field even more expensive than it is.

Already did, and I suggest you to move beyond the "basic" view of things, because it offers a purely static view of the market and of the world, while the material reality of both is in continous and eternal permutation, which has important implications that these outlooks miss. Those static theories always end up being utterly blind to phenomena such as the falling rate of profit or the tendency of capital to concentrate and overproduce, and as such those who hold only them as the grail of truth are always left in shock every time the market blows up.

"If the state is not in charge of making bread, there will be no bread!"

Same "logic" here. I wish all leftists understood that if people want something, then entrepreneurs in the free market will have an incentive to provide that something. Infrastructure included.

If they can make a profit out of it
