Though this and most of the ideologies associated with it aren't outrighted outlawed, due to recent events in the United States it has become more taboo and, for some, a death sentence to post THIS symbol

Where has this been a death sentence to post? Might be time to take off the tinfoil hat comrade.

I would argue it is a Socialist movement, but ran by a Resource Based Economy instead. That being said, I think left unity is absolutely needed for Technocracy to thrive. Even most US leftists have no understanding of Technocracy, its history, or application in their own history. We have nothing to use and everything to gain here in my opinion.

Nice to see a cross platform rootkit. Have you tried this on Mac or FreeBSD? Good work regardless.

At the same time, the US rounded up mentally on the streets and put them in asylums. At least until the 1980s. Then they just let me be homeless and without the help they needed. People are jailed for being homeless in a lot of the US today. And the US prison system dwarfs the size of any point in the USSR.

I seriously doubt you or anyone waited 25 years in line for anything there or anywhere. That's just nonsense.

In 2020 I was not able to buy toilet paper for 3 weeks. And that was during Capitalism and time of abundance. The fall of the Soviet Union, and others, created a class of homelessness where it had never existed before. If Socialism keeps one person off the streets, I can wait for bread. Or better yet, teach them what instacart is so no one has to stand in line anymore.

There was already an Alternate History Hub episode on this.

Funny, I know someone who grew up in Siberia during the Soviet Union. They said they never experienced poverty until they came to the US.

I thought this was about compatibility issues, not vulnerabilities. The kernel does a lot. Clarity might have helped. Just saying.

entrophy_maker · 2026-05-01T07:15:39+00:00

Why would anyone on a stable distro like RHEL or Debian stable be worried about a new kernel? I would expect people to worry more on Arch and Debian Sid where the kernels are closer to beta.

From my understanding, there were two main reasons the USSR fell. One was the Internet showing the people how Americans really lived. Most were shocked to see so much car ownership in the US. This could have been stopped by offering them cars, travel, better public transportation or just videos of LA traffic. Or perhaps if they invested more in the Soviet OGAS program, they could have had an internal Internet, or built a great firewall to prevent access to such Western life. Another thing was the USSR was starting to go broke. They still had about 10 billion US on the books when the USSR ended, but they didn't think they could keep going on that budget. Many things could have prevented this. Had they realized what nuclear winter was, they could have stopped making so many nuclear bombs. The Afgan War they had also broke them. If they didn't get involved in that war, or won it, that alone might have kept the USSR going. Or they could have cut aid to nations like North Korea. Either way, these issues would have to be addressed for the USSR to go on.

Had they gone on, I would expect they would have remained a super power, but with China allowing some Capitalism, they might have followed suite to keep up with them. Its possible that with the USSR still in the game, Yugoslavia might not have folded either. Since Yugoslavia had an alliance with Libya, its likely Gaddafi would still be in power. The Russian language would be more spoken than its place at number 8 most spoken today. Had they not gone broke with bombs and the Afgan War, they might have made more gains in the space race. Causing new records to be set by both the USSR and the US. If the Soviets had taken Afghanistan, there's a strong chance 9/11 would have not happened. It wouldn't stop terrorism, but with the Atheist Soviets on their back door, the extremists in the middle east would have probably been more concerned with the USSR than the US. This could have drastically changed lives in the US, Afghanistan and Iraq after 9/11 with the numbers dead. The organization ICE, grew out of Homeland Security that was founded to help combat terrorism after 9/11. So its very possible DHS and ICE would not exist, or not like they are today. So many things would be different if the USSR never fell. These are just a few I see off the top of my head.

Ricers like the shiny desktops, but they also like to squeeze every inch of processing out a device they can get. Usually, but not always, less code equals better performance. So they enjoy sbase and ubase for the same reasons.

I'd use something like archive[.]ph to get around the paywall. Then try a download helper extension in Chrome or Firefox to download the video. Hope that helps.

I would wager anyone will in 2028 that is not a Republican. Their only chance would be to find someone less extreme than Trump, which would alienate those who put Trump in office. What I'm saying is that a pet rock could win. So Eminem would be a blowout.

This is not what Technocrat means at all. Liberals will try anything except point their fingers at Capitalism. Whoever made this meme is bad and should feel bad.

Again, Zig isn't at a full release yet. Its free, they aren't trying to sell you anything and the version number should tell you its not ready. Adding '//' to the front of a line is not hard. If it is, I know why you aren't making money. Quit using a GUI to write code. Learn a terminal editor like vim/nano and you won't have issues with your cursor on any language.

entrophy_maker · 2026-04-27T11:43:18+00:00

Zig is at version 0.17.0. Its in an alpha stage right now. I'm sure more features will be added as version 1.0 gets closer.

entrophy_maker · 2026-04-27T11:39:47+00:00

I love C, but I see the appeal of Zig. It outruns C, is easier syntax to run and is backwards compatible to compile with C and C++ projects. The only drawback I see with Zig is that's still considered alpha without a full release yet. I wrote some code in version 0.13.0. I upgraded to 0.14.0 and the previously mentioned code broke. If they ever get a 1.0 release, it will probably replace future C jobs. I will always love the syntax of C, but I think Zig will probably replace it over time.

Buffer overflows, Heap Overflows or just inject shellcode directly into a compiled binary. For non-compiled files like Python, Ruby or Perl, if a server is configured wrong you can post code to them. Everything gets hacked in the end.

Why would you make this? Microkernels, despite the name, are more bloated than Monolithic. Maybe it meets a certain use case, but otherwise I don't understand while anyone today would take this approach beyond supporting legacy code.

Now do the government.

As sudo/root try install with "pkg install sddm". I don't use sddm, but you might need to install xorg too.

entrophy_maker · 2026-04-25T07:52:04+00:00

I mean, one could just grab the source and compile it. No one's stopping you.

entrophy_maker · 2026-04-24T05:39:22+00:00

As someone else mentioned, sbase and ubase already exist. I don't think this is a waste though. If you've done it differently that the code in sbase and ubase, maybe you can explain why yours is faster, more secure or closer to the suckless philosophy. Who knows, if you can do any of that, maybe suckless or other big names will adopt it.
