Rosa is the author of "The Accumulation of Capital", which was called something like "theory of the automatic demise of capitalism" and opposed in the USSR.

The book basically says that capitalism is impossible because equivalent exchange of value means there's nobody to buy the products, and survives by appending more and more regions to the capitalist system, which allows unequivalent exchange. Lenin (and later Soviet Marxists) opposed it for being anti-revolutionary. It downplays the internal contradictions of capitalism in favor of the nominally anti-imperialist external contradiction analysis (which in itself is bad for framing it as a matter of fairness), and that devalues the revolutionary class struggle, even if that certainly wasn't the intention ("automatic demise of capitalism" implies there's no historical need for that), ironically it was also used for opposing national liberation movements under the pretext of it being impossible to strive for national interests without having to become an imperialist (this is basically KKE's "Imperialist Pyramid" line).

Sadly, this means there's plenty of "Luxembourgist" social fascists.

I remember them responding to a couple antipiracy lawsuits in... India I think? they also make an exception for ISIS-related channels. But mostly all, yes.

they did ban it, and everyone still used it (Telegram was good at evading the bans back then, but eventually Roskomnadzor became decent at banning it), and then they unbanned it, whatever that means

I use sway on my phone, had to add a secondary menu bar with a few keys for stuff like opening rofi, but it works perfectly fine otherwise

Russia banned Telegram, everyone (incl. the government) continued to use it, Russia unbanned Telegram - that's how it looks from here. A government official told me Telegram being unbanned was just a matter of time when it was still banned.

people always joke about this but defenestration has never been that common in neither the Russian Empire, USSR nor Russian Federation

it receives relatively frequent updates, and it uses love2d (with a native lua module for the AI) so it's crossplatform.

the code is FOSS, the weights aren't, this is pretty common with e.g. FOSS games, the only difference here is weights are much costlier to remake from scratch than game assets

huh? I'd say email was quite popular there, it was just tied to the mobile operator (and has then been replaced with Line)

 

My biggest blog post yet, and it's about running (almost) vanilla NixOS on a (formerly) Android phone! This was 50% fun and 50% exhausting... you solve one issue and another one crops up right away... it was certainly an interesting educational experience.

I'm not explaining any basic technical concepts here, as I'm not a complete noob in phone ROMs and Linux.

Ask me any questions if you have them!

After commit 0bc3126c9cfa0b8c761483215c25382f831a7c6f in linux-firmware my system stopped booting (due to being unable to mount root fs). The bug isn't occurring all the time even with this commit, but I've still successfully tracked it down to this specific commit. Now I'm not sure where I can report it, as I could find info about maintainers of certain Linux subsystems, but not of linux-firmware or its constituent parts (like amd-ucode).

Edit: I've sent it to the person who authored the commit for the time being

 

This is a lightweight alternative for Goldberg for the single purpose of unlocking DLCs. Just rename the game's steam_api.dll to steam_api.orig.dll, download steam_api.dll from releases and put it in place of the original steam_api.dll, the game will keep interacting with Steam as usual but it will consider all DLCs installed. Of course, you also need to download the actual DLC files from somewhere.

I've actually only tested it on Linux, so I'm curious to know if it works fine on Windows and MacOS.
