I never became a discord guy, but it seems like IRC (not federated the same way lemmy/mastodon/etc are but functionally similar) would meet the requirements.
EVERY GODDAMN TIME.
The forest garden description is very similar to what I have seen described as a “permaculture forest” elsewhere.
I’m glad some of the justices finally located their consciences, but I’m afraid this will end up being too little too late.
No, it’s one of the first Linux distributions
Tax rule
He’s already talked about “work camps” for people who are “addicted” to things like SSRIs. He was mask-off Nazi before Musk was (if only by a few weeks.)
He’s a disgrace to humanity.
I’m not vegetarian but this looks amazing and I’m going to give it a shot.
I struggle with suicidal ideation every day, so…maybe?
As a tall white guy who doesn’t like guns, spy/courier is probably the way for me.
Maybe smuggler, I can drive very normally.
Reagan did borderline rape a 19 year old aspiring actress, promising to get her into meetings with producers, a week before he married Nancy Davis.
There are people on the left who critique the myth of the nuclear family that was pushed starting in the 1950’s, but that’s not what that quote is about.
It’s way creepier and unethical than a harem.
If all he was doing was basically paying women to fuck him, that would be maybe unsavory but not terribly weird.
He’s promising to pay women to bear his children, but uses artificial insemination if they agree to it. Then he sends them an NDA and if they won’t sign he claims the baby isn’t his.
Fired and jailed. That statement is a legal document, it should be assumed that the police officer is under oath when writing it, and therefore has perjured himself.
I’m trying to think of how cheap it would have to be for me to drive one of these monstrosities and it would have to be something like $-50K/year.
Pay me a lower middle class salary and I will drive your piece of shit electric truck.
BREAKING: ELON MUSK TRANS/NB, PREFERS THEY/THEM PRONOUNS
Making every yard a vegetable garden may be impractical, not everyone has the time or inclination or know how to grow vegetables. There should be a native trees/shrubs/ground cover starter pack list for each US region with plant-and-ignore native plants to replace invasive grasses like st Augustine and Bermuda grass.
THEN FUCKING DO IT.
If the party “leaders” aren’t with it, kick them the fuck out.
Unexpected Vonnegut.
My polycule can accommodate both
According to The Dawn of Everything, there is evidence of multiple instances where societies developed agriculture and then discarded it.
Sourdough starter question
I’m a noob with sourdough and I have been having a hard time getting information on how to maintain a consistent amount of starter. Is it generally appropriate to discard half and replace that half with fresh flour and water?
Related, is “discard” in any meaningful way different from the starter itself, or are the recipes for discard scones/crackers/whatever just labeled that because you aren’t using the starter for rise?
Book Recommendation: Scattered Minds
I started reading this book by Gabor Maté, a doctor who has ADHD. In just the first chapter, I felt seen in a way that I have never experienced with any therapist or psychiatrist I have consulted in almost 47 years.
Instead of phrasing a wish to a genie attempting to cover every interpretation it makes more sense to posit numerous supporting circumstances.
Londoners saying Fuckcars

Problem with Jellyfin on Fedora and Ubuntu
I installed Jellyfin on an iMac running Fedora 39/Gnome and it was running more or less without any issues. However, I wanted to have the iMac on a VPN which would prevent accessing content indexed by Jellyfin elsewhere. So I installed Ubuntu on an old Mac Mini that I had, planning to make it a NAS box as well as host Jellyfin. The install there did not go well at all, I got the error "The server is expected to host the web client, but the provided content directory is either invalid or empty."
I found a post on github where a user created the directory listed in the error and then copied from /usr/share/jellyfin/web/ and when I did that the startup went further but then it threw the error "Kestrel failed to start! This is most likely due to an invalid address or port bind - correct your bind configuration in network.xml and try again."
I could not find a clear answer as to where the "network.xml" file is located, and I couldn't
Help with fedora 39
I installed Fedora 39 on an old iMac I had with a fusion drive (128GB SSD +1TB spinning disk.)
Fedora is installed on the SSD, and I want to use the spinning disk as a media drive. Problem is, it does not mount by default, so I figure I need to edit /etc/fstab to have it mount at startup.
I’m at work so I SSH into the iMac and get the UUID for the disk and then open fstab in vi, enter the new line with the uuid, directory I want the drive mounted in (/media), the filesystem (ext4) and the options. Try to write and quit, get an error the file is readonly. Try to set the file to noreadonly, write fails again. Try :wq! and get the error the file cannot be opened to write.
Exit vi, ls -la and see the file is read-only.
sudo chmod 644 fstab, put in password. ls -la shows file is still read only. lsattr fstab, immutable flag is not set.
Is this happening because I’m on SSH, or is there some other issue?
Problem with conda
I recently picked up the python mastery bundle from humble bundle and one of the books (about larger-scale projects) has its exercises built around using anaconda virtual environments. I am able to create a project using:
undefined
% conda create -n project0 —channel=conda-forge python=3.12
But when I try to activate project0 I get an error that “activate” is an invalid choice. When I tried to initialize conda for Bash, my terminal behaved like the default echo for typed characters turned off.
Considering Gentoo
I have an old iMac that I am planning to install some flavor of Linux on and while I was looking at various distros it occurred to me that it might be a good exercise to install Gentoo on it. Other than a separate machine for documentation and downloading the necessary packages, what else should I have set up to try this? Has anyone installed Gentoo on a Mac before? If so, what concerns are there related to things like Apple’s implementation of EFI?
Best distro for Lenovo Carbon X1
I have a Lenovo Carbon X1 that is a few years old (7th gen), and I am running Fedora 38.5 with GNOME 44.5. The issue is that the system does not sleep properly. If I close the lid, nothing suspends properly, so if it is not on a charger or shut down it will die within several hours in my bag. Are there any distros that handle power management and suspend status on this hardware better than Fedora?
Hoboken is becoming a pedestrian wonderland
In Hoboken, Mayor Ravi Bhalla has worked to redesign city intersections, install bike lanes and slow traffic. The result? Six-plus years of no pedestrian fatalities.
Hoboken has slowed traffic and increased bike lanes and pedestrian areas, leading to a six year period with zero pedestrian deaths.
Question about Proton
I am buying a friend’s PC for games. I want to avoid windows if at all possible, and I’m wondering what people’s experience using Proton in Linux for gaming has been. Are there certain publishers who use libraries Proton doesn’t handle well? Are there distros to avoid using with proton? Any other notes I should be aware of?
bell hooks got it
“The first act of violence that patriarchy demands of males is not violence toward women. Instead patriarchy demands of all males that they engage in acts of psychic self-mutilation, that they kill off the emotional parts of themselves. If an individual is not successful in emotionally crippling himself, he can count on patriarchal men to enact rituals of power that will assault his self-esteem.”
That bell hooks quote was the one that made me realize that feminism wasn’t just about bringing women into equality with men, but about protecting everyone from the violence of patriarchy.
Andrewism on justice
Hope this doesn’t break any rules, I think the discussion of justice is germane to infrapolitics.
Question about goats
I am working on a story in which a group of well-organized squatters are practicing agriculture in a suburban development. They keep goats that graze on nearby grassy areas and I wanted to know what is done with herd sires when they age out of breeding. Everything I can find talks about male kids and wethers, but there’s nothing about sires except that older male goats’ meat tastes bad.
