As Mao Hoxha intended.

Using actual emojis to make a meme! I love this!

First order of business is money. I need to get the scanner somehow.

Smells of feds ngl

Now that's something I haven't heard of! Thank you for mentioning it, I'll definitely look into it!

Also you are quoting me wrong, you should add an additional line after the quote to fix it xd

I sadly haven’t tried a typewrtier… yet. I’ll see if I can get my hands on one, though the simple editing that you do digitally when writing is unbeatable.

I think more and pace myself better when typing on a typewriter, I also look out more for mistakes and generally think a lot before I lay it down on paper. It's a different mode of production you could say, but yes. The versatility of the text editor or word processor is simply unmatched in the modern world. I just like the limitations and requirements that the typewriters put on me.

Look at Luke Smith and how he praises the Unabomber and other such figures, even has a video saying imagination is demonic, lol. Same with DistroTube, both are far-righters.

It's hard to say the first didn't influence me, he was one of the few who made Linux videos in 2016 and 2017, before Youtube Linux really blew up. So unfortunately he was the guy I looked up to. Yeaaaahhh... Quite a shameful past, but I'm not afraid to admit it. Luke is the premier petit bougie sympathiser… „Oh you rent? Just buy land soycuck!”. What a fucking moron.

Yeah there’s a constant competition of “MORE PIXELS! MORE QUALITY!” but it’s barely distinguishable on an average screen. It’s just the techbro conception of “progress”

Progress means better treats. That's unfortunately the mindset of every anti-PRL idiot born in the 1970's. They didn't have jeans, Sony, Philips, Nintendo or other shit. Who fucking cares they've had guaranteed education, work, housing, high quality healthcare and more. Now that it's all collapsing it's just an inconvenience as long as they can keep their white BMW SUV. Fucking hell.

Haha, fair

B)

Also keep in mind, the Dillo+ I linked is a fork of standard Dillo. It add more features including support for Gopher and Gemini. Also thank you for wanting to help me! While UNIX like operating systems is something I pretty much mastered as I've got 7 years of experience as a day to day user, hosting is something I've yet to get into. I'll try to figure things out as I go and maybe I'll nag you when shit hits the fan lmao

This guy got 3 star notoriety here on Lemmygrad like it's fucking GTA xD. He will never achieve the legendary Wisconscom 6 star though lmao

ANO KURWA JEGO MAĆ, JA NAWET ICH NIE ZNAM XDDDDDDDD

Except for Chopin of course xdd

Yeah, If you try to search for any book on libgen or zlibrary that is not in english, and for example in polish, then good fucking luck! It basically can be considered non existent! I hope that one day I can afford a CZUR book scanner to make this somewhat different as I do have a small collection of Marxist books that were published back in PRL and having scans available would be nice for a lot of people. Because that is the main problem Polish marxists have, lack of availability of materials as no new prints are being made, nothing has been scanned and many books were lost to burnings after 1989...

Ah, digitally I also tried to be very minimalist by also using only CLI software and running a tiling window manager (sometimes i3 and sometimes dwm). I've only recently returned to XFCE as I find it rather simple for a DE and really love it for what it is, something just makes me return to it since we met back in 2016. I really love it, and being relatively hassle free when it comes to configuration has me won over. Sorry, I love the customization a CLI program allows, but I sometimes could use the mouse support or unified theming of GTK that I can easily swap with a singular click.

I also have tried the Gemini and Gopher protocols but haven't found much worth being posted there... I'm currently planning (key word, planning) on writing a Small Web guide and creating a dedicated Small Web community as I would really like to foster these ideas around people. I also have plans of creating a website that would be available on HTTP, Gopher and Gemini and my target browser is Dillo+. I'll share more information when I get to it, sooooo yeah. Be sure to be veeeeeery patient…

I'm glad that you are also an analog technology enjoyer, there's just something else to these devices that smartphones and computers cannot really provide. It's quite an amazing feeling I like to share with the people I meet, not many people have seen, not even typed, on a typewriter. Sharing the magic is the least I could do.

Yeah I definitely saw what you mean, much of the Linux, Small Web, etc. is very anti-technology and goes reactionary most of the time. Partly cause it’s full of conservatives.

Yeah 4chan's /g/ is exactly like that, they were the guys that got me to read the Unabomber Manifesto. And even back in my worse days I knew Kaczyński was batshit insane, couldn't really believe people would unironically try and spread his idiotic message.

I criticise new useless technology such as Smart TVs because it’s capitalism’s way of “innovation” that is predatory, not because new = bad.

And correctly so! My TV is a CRT and it works just fine. And also is a reason why I don't really care for 4k Ultra HD torrents and just settle for 720p (Remember when 720p was called HD? I sure do). Bruh even standard resolution, known as 480p, is prefect enough for me lmao.

Too bad there aren’t more leftists in the FOSS communities, though.

Look around, they are making your software! Not fanboying about it on reactionary internet forums or shilling shitcoins B)

That at least counts for something and if anything, I can 100% say this with full confidence, and I know she won't read this but…

Leah Rowe, you were influential in saving me from becoming a disgusting piece of shit. Thank you. It means the world to me.

I do agree smartphones are utilities that allow people to do much more with them for the much lower price tag, that is a great point. They also are very much useful for disabled people as they trivialize (mostly) many tasks that were in the past very difficult for them.

Regarding China, I'd say I'm happy that they've achieved a unified model with smartphones really being the everything machine. But personally due to my past experiences with computers and smartphones I'm not really fond of that being the only option, and would love for "low tech" alternatives to exist. I really wouldn't like my smartphone to be the singular point of failure of me being able to pay or even worse, open my home in the first place.

I also don't like (from what I've heard) that cash, despite existing, gets very rarely accepted anywhere in China. I've also remembered now some kind of article that was linked to GenZedong about China forcing some, but I don't remember which, places to accept cash no matter what as to help seniors. So if anything, and I hope I'm wrong, it sucks that there are little alternatives to the smartphone life one has in China. It should be the mainstream, but weirdos like me exist unfortunately, even if we are the absolute minority...

Ah fuck I'm getting disproven by more comments. Okay, yeah I forgot about Matejko and the Stańczyk. His paintings are beatiful and his imaginings of our Kings have been the bases for how they are portrayed on currency.

And yes, the stańczyk is quite the meme nowadays. We should turn it into an emote.

Yeah, go ahead. If you have one good for you, makes me happy anyone gets recognized outside of here.

All of the brown nosing for western european culture drives me nuts, I hate it and if you were living in Poland you would completely understand.

We try to equate our artists, poets, writers, composers and painters who were either great on their own, or mediocre mimics of western artists, with those same western artists themselves.

We like to think of ourselves as "part of the gang" but really we're just that "extra friend" that wasn't invited, gets constantly bullied and for some fucking reason still sticks around.

Give me a name of Polish artist and one of their works from the 19th or 20th century. Before PRL of course. Please do.

No one outside of Poland knows or cares to know them.

And nowadays Socialist Realism gets demonized to hell and back, called a "state mandated totalitarianism" or "russification".

Yeah and no one bats an eye or cries for Americanization the racist fucks. Recently I've heard on the radio of a system called "Child Alert", and I'm not translating anything here. That's what it was called, not "Alarm dziecięcy". "Child alert".

If that was written in russian they would be flinging shit, pissing their pants and crying about the death of Polish culture and language.

I hate this shithole, it's culture of being a western brownnoser must be bulldozed and ruthlessly suppresed. Sociailist Poland must be it's own thing, seperate from this bullshit, and for that to happen...

America must fall.

EDIT: Okay. So maybe I was a bit wrong. As the comments replying to me seem to be contradictory to the statement that no one knows Polish artists lmao

I should have [he/him/debil] pronouns to be honest xD

Yeah, literally nothing changed but the scale makes you think otherwise. I hate how liberals do this to push a fake narrative. Bending the truth to their whims as much as they can, the snakes.

89% decrease of refined petroleum imports since summer 2017

This is violence. No, not even violence. Premeditated murder for god's sake! This is fucking revolting, I can't even begin to think how to communicate my anger.

Apart for liberalisms, I wish I could fucking read it. I hate paywalls. Maybe some later time.

:horsepoo-theory:

I'm about to become herstory 😭😭😭
