Lesser evilism should be applied along the lines of critical support. This "lesser" evil must actually be an indispensable bulwark against a greater evil. It is absolutely not something you should exhaust yourself on. There is a big difference between critical support and evangelism.

Liberals will readily describe their champions as a lesser evil, and use that as a license to evangelize for evil. As long as Hitler is out there somewhere wandering the globe, they are justified. They also often misidentify the greater evil for the lesser evil because idealism is a purely vibe-based ideological framework.

We're so back.

Yes, but don't worry.

YES. I heard some lib mention this settlement on WBAI earlier today (correctly pointing out that Trump will be no better for Palestine, but ignoring the fact that there was no notable Democratic opposition to these policies). This was before it exploded.

Though there are MILLIONS of shitlibs out there, this shit is definitely being turfed. The idea that heads must roll among the Democratic party elite is an incredibly dangerous thing. It is an idea which must be strangled in the crib. This was the whole purpose of Russiagate 8 years ago. To absolve the party leadership of their world-historic negligence. Nobody lost their jobs.

People get away with posting literally unreconstructed antisemitic memes day in and day out but if you criticize Israel for the crimes of genocide and apartheid you get the ban hammer.

If I wanted to vote for a homicidal fuckface I'd write in Alec Baldwin.

Aside from drastically changing patterns of precipitation, I could only imagine screening 10% of the sunlight reaching the surface would have a negative impact on photosynthesis, with impacts both on natural environments and industrial agriculture.

 

Perhaps one of the more surprising changes in the 6.12-rc4 development kernel was the removal of several entries from the kernel's MAINTAINERS file. The patch performing the removal was sent (by Greg Kroah-Hartman) only to the patches@lists.linux.dev mailing list; the change was included in a char-misc drivers pull request with no particular mention.

The explanation for the removal is simply ""various compliance requirements"". Given that the developers involved all appear to be of Russian origin, it is not too hard to imagine what sort of compliance is involved here. There has, however, been no public posting of the policy that required the removal of these entries.

An early comment likely pins down the prevailing institutional pressures leading to this decision

What's the deal with an international project adhering to what is obviously a decision of the US government?

Hint: The Linux Foundation (which notably employs Greg KH and Torvalds, and provides a lot of the legal and other infrastructure for this "international project") is based in the US, and therefore has to follow US laws.

This is pretty fucked up. Like, we might see the kernel forked in the coming months/years.

16,651 deaths to get through 'beginner' and 'intermediate' lmao.

For those who live under a rock, Strawberry Jam is a collaborative level pack made for Celeste which contains 111 levels and NINE HOURS of original soundtrack. It embodies the workmanship of over 350 contributors. The levels are split into five categories ranging from 'beginner' to 'grandmaster.'

This is what the final stage of 'intermediate' looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pm7zvu0kDro

The statement continues in a tweet thread

Absolutely pathetic. My pessimism is spiking to C. Derek Varn levels. These motherfuckers have given you NOTHING. They are jingling car keys in front of your face and you are cooing like an infant. How are you not only going to endorse, but TAKE CREDIT for the selection of this guy with absolutely no promises or concessions. This man will be the Vice President, and by your own admission, the blood will be on your hands.
