is nixos considered immutable or mutable? kind of has characteristics of both.
elect different lawmakers
Elect lawmakers that would pass single payer, like they have in europe. However, this is an unrealistic expectation in our modern political landscape. So we need to change the political landscape to make that possible.
- find a way to dismantle the right wing propaganda machine, or make one as powerful but not a fountain of lies. Difficult since the right wing has the full support of the billionaire owned news media. They are pros who have studied pyops inside and out and excel at it.
- join the democratic party and attempt to overthrow its pro-rich leadership. difficult. Is it really a democratically run institution?
create alternative orgs
create coops and/or nonprofits to provide better options than predatory insurance companies. maybe easier because its grassroots and small compared to changing our national leadership. There's a danger of genuinely helpful institutions being outlawed due to mainstream medical lobbying.
direct action
we've already seen how successful propaganda of the deed can be. but will it actually produce change, or just lead to repression? it has at least communicated the extent to which Americans are disgruntled - not just the deed itself, but the overwhelmingly positive reaction to it.
general strikes, boycotts, other demonstrations might be a possibility. you need an effective campaign to get people on the same page.
So, what is the security surprise? “When writing an email in the Gmail app on your Android device, you can now drag and drop contacts in the addressee fields,” Google said.
kind of too bad, it wasn't what I'd call a great movie, but it did hold my interest. haven't seen another one like it, I'll say that lol.
I kind of want to try wayland just to be modern, but I'm pretty happy with xmonad and don't want to learn another window manager.
What I think would be interesting would be a link aggregator based around tags rather than subcommunities. Moderation would be based around these tags. Your feed would be based on tag queries. Posts could have multiple tags, assigned by the original poster or by users. Assigning tags would have a similar effect to voting, so a post might get tagged by 1000 people as 'corporate lies', or as 'music', or whatever else.
Nice thing about this would be finer grained queries with news, for instance. Could get 'politics', but minus 'corporate lies'.
I use keepassxc to generate the code.
Basically high tech elves. Having passed through a self imposed disaster, humanity faces it's destructive greed and overcomes it, achieving a profound integration with nature, while retaining the technical knowledge of the past. The new culture is stable and long lasting, and heals the blighted areas of the planet. The ecosystem becomes more resilient and more abundant than ever before.
We don't know. But if there were well known backdoors to mainstream security practices we might see more companies that depend on security shutting down, or at least shutting down their online activities. Banks, stock trading, crypto exchanges, other enterprises that handle money, where hacking would be lucrative.
Nixos got this and then some
Not enough to actually do anything about it of course. Bless those furrowed brows of concern!
