  • This is kind of their thing WDYM? The flaw of Soviet-style autarky is that you can’t uproot imperialism by cutting yourself off from it, not a failure to meet the basic needs of the people.

    Expect the DPRK to become an industrial powerhouse now that China and Russia are warming up to them more. South Korea, eventually, will play a huge part in its development. Think Iran, but not menaced by Israel, holding nuclear weapons. Very intriguing situation. Most nations are still behind Iran in rocket technology. “You can just lock in and do things.”




  • Your interests make sense for a person who’s always going to be in curated spaces online. And that’s not a bad thing since you’re used to having high-level, detailed, empathetic conversations with other people. Try to find intermediary interests between your current most passionate interests and those that you know will be more relatable to other people. This isn’t manipulative. People who fear silence (most Americans) tend to feel more relaxed if you’re one step ahead of the conversation.

    PeerGOS is the best there is. Encrypted, self-hostable (FOSS of course), federated, peer-to-peer features, and its own app ecosystem. I consider it the crown jewel of federated technologies along with XMPP, Delta Chat, and Peertube

    Nextcloud’s encryption… good luck even getting it to work lol. Might as well automatically zip and password lock stuff instead oof

    Please support the devs I have found nothing like it anywhere!! (Currently their own offerings are inefficient compared to other datacenters but I buy it basically just to keep the lights on.)


  • Oh I missed which instance you’re on. World is basically for people who miss reddit. I only vouch for the rules on this particular instance. Which are stict, but fair. Lemmygrad and Hexbear will ban you no matter what if you disagree with a regular or mod. Same with World or the 500 other liberal ones. Good luck. ☺️

    I used to look down on the whole debate & logic thing since I flirted with American policy debate in high school, which is disgusting game for charlatans. However eventually I realized that the issue was bad premises, me being too rude to people, and that nobody explained logic to me until I was studying comp eng 🫠

    Be passionate about logic, self-critical, and kind. Then you never have to hesitate before striking a man down.
