I was disgusted when I realized he only just died. I just hope that I will live long enough that I know that I have lived longer after his death than during his life.

He died on 2023/11/29, so almost seven months ago.

There was a time when I thought about switching to Fedora when I ditch Windows in 2025, but the frequent release schedule of Fedora has made me worried if those updates risk breaking my setup.

What seam?

Regarding propaganda, just because something is propaganda doesn't mean it is automatically a lie. It just means that it is being used for political gains.

I am an IT with photography as a hobby, I only really picked it up seven years ago, and even as someone who is not well versed in photography I have never heard the term "bent" to describe a photograph

Both of these look terrible and very stressfull to drive.

My 2021 Seat Leon hatchback fits my entire family, with luggage for a weekend, while being fun and relaxing to drive.

These monstrosities are idiotic.

The battwry isn't used to propell the train in a normal electric train

That, or taste...

The coolest thing about electric trains is that for all normal usecases, they have an infinite fuel tank.

He is a dick, who used to be important for wikileaks but has kept tergeting specific angles for his leaks, which seems to indicate pushing a political agenda, which reduces trust in him and his platform.

The work he started is too important to leave in his care.

Example: During the DNC email leak, Wikileaks was clearly in a rush to publish the documents without removing credit card information and social security numbers, this is just sloppy.

Assange also worked to draw out the release of documents to increase Wikileaks publicity, this went on far enough that he publicly made announcements of releases that never came.

Wikileaks also published evidence that the DNC was behind the killing of Seth Rich, a DC staffer that Assange alluded to have given him the emails, this evidence came from a PI who has freely admitted not having seen any emails between Wikileaks and Seth not having seen the laptop containing the emails, or even having spoken with someone who had. The PI in question is a known FOX contributer.

Assange also seems to have weirdly close ties to Russia, he only had his morning talkshow broadcast on RT, supposedly they were the only ones to take up his show for syndication.

When he was first exiled, he requested that the Russian security service FSB should handle his security detail.

Today, the largest sponsor of Wikileaks is the Russian Government.

All of this speaks to Wikileaks not being the supreme beacon of free speach, but rather part of the Russian propaganda machine.

I don't think it started this way, Assange and Wikileaks probably started with the best of intentions, but the reality of our society came into play and Assange/Wikileaks sold thier credibillity for money from the Russian government.

Networking is complex, you gotta keep track of subnets, vlans, firewalls, domain names, DHCP servers and more,

Netwalk is simpler, rotate the pieces untill all computers have access to the server, but you can't create loops or have loose connections anywhere, every peice must be used.

In the expert mode, connections wrap around to the other side.

This was broadcast on state television in Sweden in the 90s...

I remember watching it back then, having zero idea of what what going on but liking the bright colors...

The main part is just a guy doing a one man show for kids on a terrible CGI background.

There are also weird CGI shorts, music videos, puppetry, badly drawn cartoons, a weird gameshow with teddy bears, bad music videos.

I realize that they are all speaking Swedish, but trust me, this is from an era just breaking out of heavy moralizing and the segments of the show are constantly overbaering with trying to tech kids stuff.

It is not without it's charm though, I kinda like the gameshow part, even if the concept is a bit contrived... But I like the attention to detail and how nicely made it is.

In the 80s/90s Arnold was a huge movie star, playing huge men in both serious and comedy roles.

I guess that what I am asking is; what actor today could occupy the same kind of decade defining place as Arnold did in the 80s/90s?

They don't have to be a massive bodybuilder, but they should be the first name that anyone would think of when someone say "2010s/2020s".

Some told me "pics or it didn't happen", so I posted videos from the world, that got some attention, and here I am, posting the entire 3GB world to the public for anyone to download and try:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1woXAhxZ4RoJAWJf7XbUbxfG1ahAgaLZV/view?usp=sharing

Some may recognize it from a map posted to /r/minecraft years ago, that was also me.

The first few weeks/months I set the difficulty to peaceful survival, but after hgaving lost my bed and dying only to respawn far away from the base, I recovered a shadow copy backup and cheated into creative mode, a few years later after being annoyed, I removed bats and clouds from the world so I could focus on building stuff.

I never used any mods to enable me building faster or easier, apart from the above mentioned cheats this is vanilla minecraft, every block built in the last decade has been placed manually, every hole dug has been dug either manually or with TNT, often rigged to be synced with redstone if blasting horizontal.

To see what I probably think is the most impressing stuff, find Plattform 7 at the huge trainstation and follow the tracks.

BTW, the brick church is ginormous, go downstairs, and have a notebook to draw a map handy, it is a bizzare librarynth down there, and even I can't remember the way through.

The main runway is mined.

During several years it was the main game I played, and I played it for hours every day.

I have recovered the map from backups when it developed save errors, I have recovered the map from a hard drive that was about to crash, and I have done some normal migrations between computers.

Most of the time spent in the map was spent in creative mode, all of the time spent has been spent playing without mods.

The map has it all:

  1. Weird towers, many weird towers.
  2. Railroads, many railroads, soo many railroads, I am not kidding, there is a huge ammount of railroads, it is frankly ridiculous how many railroads I have built.
  3. Weird religious buildings, from classic chruches, to many, many strange halls dedicated to religious or cult iconography.
  4. A huge, confusing, underground maze of libraries.
  5. Huge geometrical structures that just keeps going.
  6. A lot of odd glass and light sculptures.
  7. Hugely long but super narrow buildings that just goes on and on and on.

So my question is, if anyone would like to get a copy of this world and see what my mind has built over almost a decade.
