Cat climbed up on the counter and tried to mess em up.

I want to start an indoor and outdoor garden. Planting season is coming up.

I'm also having decent success germinating some rice.

I'm somewhat regretting my choice to buy pinto and black bean 'seeds'.

Also I've been making trips up into the hills to dig up naturally occurring clay and that sort of thing and carry it down in my big backpack.

Maybe I can try and make some dirt out of that.... I already went to home depot to get some garden fertilizer, but I prob need to get some high nitrogen stuff in bulk.

This has some pretty interesting computational chemistry material in it.

It's faster now, great.

The politics are actually mostly pretty good in this.

If you are unfamiliar with the AV1 codec well it is the successor to VP9 which was in the same class of h.264 which was and still is prolific on the internet. AV1 is a big jump over h264...

MediaTek was early to implemented AV1 in their Dimensity smartphone chips since 2019. And if you aren't aware those are in a lot of Chinese smartphones.

There is now a decent chance you own and use a device that supports AV1 decoding. This means that AV1 I think is going to take over the internet in the next few years.

Although AV1 is free and open source, it is a result of corporate socialism and Google's CIA influence. It probably wouldn't even be possible in the capitalist framework otherwise because big surprise intellectual property isn't actually good for innovation or much else.

My first computer as I remember. Great engineering, much innovation especially on the custom LCD which I'm surprised isn't in all the cheaper smart phones. Microsoft tried to ruin the software lol.

Don Hopkins announced that he is creating a free and open source port of the game SimCity to the OLPC

that's what I remember the most

just figured out how to cross post

I have had this in my mind for a little while. I'm Californian and I feel we should make a push break this state from the US of Amerikkka.

The new state can form with Mexico, South America, China...

This thing I'm pretty sure wouldn't be majority white. So it would be inherently anti Amerikkkan. I would emphasize race mixing.

I know this isn't super realistic on paper since USA would violently try to destroy this movement. I actually expect it to be a pretty grossly thing. But I'm ready to put on the heat. Any other Californians ready to reject your Amerikkkan allegiances and to organize and do other stately things on that basis?

I'm going to develop this idea more and prepare more material on it.

I ran Gentoo on our Ryzen 5800X computer... But we had to stop with that because after all my tinkering we didn't have a usable enough system capable of doing the things we needed, like running Steam.

I have developed a love/hate relationship with portage. It's very powerful letting you get at all the compiler flags. I like that. But it was too unwieldy also and parts of it felt a little outdated.

What I need for my workstation is something that is very powerful and efficient but also highly robust and stable enough to serve as the base for all my usages.

Maybe I'll try Funtoo. Thought about NixOS or something but don't want to do that really.

Looks like the creator of Gentoo has a YouTube: Daniel Robbins / BDFLFUN2

What do you think? This is totally for defense am I right.

When are amerikkkans and low level storm troopers gonna wake up.

Maybe there should be a Shit Imperialists Say channel.

Up the speed if you want to listen to him.

He talks about having some background on economics in college. And when talking vaguely in the past he got kinda based and anti establishment without veering off to the right.

But this video is cringe. He criticized socialism seemingly without knowing what it is. He incorporated the national inflation number into his annual downturn percentage calculation for Intel. I'm not an economist but I also don't see how those numbers apply. He repeated some eh about China.

He talks about markets like some type of libertarian. This guy has probably never read any socialist theory and it shows.

I've been really enjoying all his videos and they are useful and he has some pretty good takes and useful techniques and knowledge. This one disappointed me tho. Hope he levels up his politics. It's totally absent a whole perspective.
