  • inequity is real.

    If each and every person should matter then It should be ok to recognize each and every person for what they are being targetted for. And I see this law as doing just that. It’s recognizing that a person may not be targetted for being an individual but a part of a group. And that is important. So That is taking their individualness into importance by recognizing the group they are being targetted by.

    This should be allowed if you’re being legitimately concerned for EVERYONE’S safety here.

    people who may be at their job as a sex worker. Or if they are simply female and that in itself could be weaponized against them.

    They will face a violent discrimination just as another person fitting into a different group might. And it’s important to recognize that, make that a law, and keep them safe too. So if “Being targetted for”is a law , recognizing group profile is part of that.



  • What I’m finding interesting is the more I look into consciousness studies, I believe in ghosts less and less.

    Remnants …maybe? I mean the consciousness is here, I just don’t believe they exist as what we call a ghost. that it is a spirit that hasn’t ‘moved on’ to whatever form it takes after which again, is never really explained to what it moves onto. The dark matter? Interesting concept.

    we just can’t observe it…yet . So who knows what makes up the dark matter while we exist in this current consciousness. Who knows, maybe it’s our real ‘bodies’ making that up and we just can’t see it. Maybe that big old void is just you or me or anyone. And we just have these little flesh masks on while living in this simulation.


  • Yes that one is rather interesting concept. That everything is conscious. Or all encompassing.

    On that note there’s also the realization that science has not yet detected where the ‘mind’ actually inhibits the body as once believed . As there are many animated creatures with no brain. And there are humans who have lead a very normal life with very little brain matter clung to the skull bone.

    the mind possibly doesnt even take space in the body at all. Maybe we’re dipping our toe into this form or whatever.


  • That death isn’t the end. It might be the end of a physical group of cells but what we experience as our own consciousness lives on. Just not in this same form. And that those who have passed are communicating but we don’t pick up on the same vibrations inside of these bodies.

    We’re also not in the same vibration to pick up any of our own memories of before inhabiting our bodies.

    A huge amount of people who have NDEs seem to report much of this in common.

    That and there is a plethora of dark energy and matter we cannot perceive. Which is scary creepy when I think about it too much. Like if this were a computer program, we’ve only physically taken up an observed 5% of the disk space. Can’t get my mind around that.








  • I dunno, I have a respect for Americans who tend to just say what they think. Pretty open book. If they don’t like something they will say it. You know where you stand with them. And Australians are even more blunt. I came to love that about Australians. Cuz there’s no guessing. If they want to tell you something they don’t waste any time and dont coat it unecessarily in emotional bullshit. They don’t ‘handle’ adults like they are fragile children. Say what they mean. Mean what they say.

    Although Industry can influence that behaviour.

    Cuz Canadians don’t play like that. They play a totally different game. Say nice things. Hide ulterior motives. Insult you in actions. But say something completely different. Take Joy in your failure. And never say it to your face. Deep grudges. Will put oil rags in your tank without telling you and hope you die. No range of 1-100 in anger. Just happy until they aren’t and they go a full 1000 with it. Never confront you to your face at a reasonable point before getting there. No discussion leading up to it Heavy manipulating. Sabotaging. If you don’t ’pick up on their hints’ they automatically add you to their shit list. Watch your back. Constantly. With a friggin smile on your face.

    Lawyers flourish there.



  • Kde plasma is imparative to run for some 3D simulation programs if you’re going to go Linux. Like you cannot run them in any other distro. Full stop. The kits for these licenses just aren’t widely built in Linux land. Lots of restrictions even by the software developers themselves. I learned this while troubleshooting with them directly.

    As such you can end up with a black screen of nothing if you haven’t forced the dynamic display (on new ROG system only) forced onto dGPU in order to force nvidia. and yet I don’t have to do this with MSI. That said , unlike the asus, MSI is too dumb to understand in dual boot to keep the safe boot unlocked if switching between windows and Linux.

    it’s not just Linux vs windows. It’s the motherboards. I was not expecting that going in but here we are.

    And I don’t know why any of this requires nouveau to be blacklisted but it does


  • If you haven’t had to deal with kde plasma for your needs, then yes: consider yourself lucky cuz more than two settings on the bios needs to change as well. And that’s not even going into the dual boot scenario. Which is fresh hell. Especially with the most recent upgrades with locks and dynamic cards. And learning that every motherboard handles it differently even if you have matched all other types of hardware.

    Just a reminder everyone’s needs are different. And some of this is way easier on windows if you’re arguing at just out of the box working

    Not that I’m regretting going Linux. I’m just regretting the fanbois who are insufferable and obnoxious since coming to Linux. Really rides on my patience after several installs and learning all this by hand.

    So many reveal that after I put the foot down all they did was just install to do some real basic shit and call it easy. They know nothing and need to sit down. Either help or Shut up, let people work through their required build.

    We can be better than this.


  • kde plasma, changing the explicit driver is not such an easy task. And have to manually mess around with nouveau

    Or have a card that needs the bios set before defaulting nvidia for plasma.

    stuff you never ever have to think about on windows.

    Linux is not something that works out of the box for every need.

    Not a stab on Linux but this is more of a stab at the fanbois really gotta back down from gatekeeping as this is what I find the cringiest about Linux user base. Which I’m part of now so I see it as my duty to call this shit out and tell them to knock it off. It is full on obnoxious.
