Pridnestrovie broke up from the Moldovan SSR because they wanted to continue being in the USSR. Afaik now it's just a capitalist zone with socialist aesthetics; not like they can do much either way the land is too small really

I heard that in the newer ones the quality went down, especially the keyboard. Though Lenovo said they aim for their whole lineup to be repairable by 2025, which is a plus. The old ones are repairable and easily upgradeable

I am a hobbyist sysadmin and selfhost things myself. If you need help with selfhosting/Linux just send me a message!

Basically you can connect to devices on Tailscale even if you're not on your LAN, acting like a Wireguard peer. It gives you a local IP for each device connected to which you can connect when you're not at home, for example.

Any society is authoritarian, it depends who wields it.

Capitalism worked under Eastern aggression

Right, the countries that invaded the USSR in its nascent years, constantly tried to assassinate leaders of progressive movements, couped most countries on Earth.

Communist economic sanctions, Communist covert actions

The projection lol

and a propaganda apparatus far more widespread than anything from the West.

As that joke goes, a CIA and KGB officer meet at a bar. The CIA officer says to the KGB officer "You've got a good propaganda machine!", the KGB officer replies "Well, yours is unbeatable."

The CIA agent responds with "What propaganda? In the West we don't have propaganda."
