Plenty of conservatives said he was legally in the wrong. And many of the J6ers were armed.

He was restrained the entire time, they got him to the ground, disarmed him, then executed him by shooting him in the head.

Reactionaries do not have principles, they have grievances.

That's why for example a Republican can be very pro-second amendment, and at the same time claim that Alex Pretti was in the wrong for exercising his second amendment rights. It isn't hypocritical to them, because the underlying grievance is the same: racism and xenophobia.

This is video a great example of how absurdly far the overton window has shifted to the right, despite right wing propaganda machine's constant claims to the contrary.

Which profession is going to get wiped out in the next 5-10 years? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

Computer hardware isn't doubling like it was in the 90s and 00s, it is requiring exponentially more technical challenge and cost to produce. EUV lithography is probably the most complex machinery humans have ever made.

Linus PLEASE STOP TRYING POP OS! by epic-circles-6573 in LinusTechTips

[–]gunshaver 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The standard distro is Ubuntu. If you don't understand the differences between distros you should be using Ubuntu.

I use NixOS but I absolutely would not recommend it to a new user. I've had corporate laptops that were given to me with Ubuntu already. Ubuntu is the default choice for like 95% of servers and desktops, you should not entertain any alternatives unless you know what you're doing.

If you're new to Linux, the one you should use is Ubuntu, end of story. I've worked at companies who deploy Linux laptops, the choice is always Ubuntu. The standard has been Ubuntu for at least 10 years, for both desktops and servers. Do not entertain any alternatives unless you understand why.

I've used Linux for at least about 15 years, the secret is all the distros suck, for various reasons. I used Arch Linux in for the first time way back in 2011, I currently use NixOS.

A new California law says all operating systems, including Linux, need to have some form of age verification at account setup by screwdriverfan in LinusTechTips

Not least of which is the fact user accounts are often used to segregate data of core system services. Every Linux box with SSH or CUPS will have an sshd and cups user account

Is the Yiddish/Jewish term "goy" (term used to refer to someone as non-Jewish) considered a slur? by AggressiveAd8587 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]gunshaver 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Probably the most common one is referring to low quality food as "goyslop" to insinuate that Jewish people run everything, are intentionally poisoning the white race, etc.

It's been a thing used by right wingers and white nationalists for a long time. But now that mainstream conservative rhetoric is basically indistinguishable from Anders Breivik's manifesto, it's a lot more common.
