ED made me regain focus

I've been a social media junkie for several years now. Covid-19 made it bad, Russia starting a war made it worse. I got back to my grind at Elite Dangerous a few weeks ago. I've been grinding materials and fed rep several hours every day. It's almost a meditate experience compared to being worried about everything all the time. And now I noticed that when the game is off, I'm not spending 90% of my remaining time reading social media and news, and I have the energy to actually plan and do stuff. So grind on captains o7

    None for otherwise.

    A ceasefire may allow Hamas to regroup and survive, which would be a bad thing. Then again, from my couch it seems like IDF is not about to destroy Hamas completely with this war.

    Some (perhaps most) renters do create wealth by providing resources and maintaining the property. That's why they are paid for it.

    I think there's clearly some societal benefits to distributing the work of maintaining housing in this way. Is there a cartel making the prices go up more than they should in a working market or what is the reason for it?

    It makes sense politically. GOP's politics are pretty much identical to those of United Russia. But letting this seep into geopolitical issues is treasonous.

    Nothing wrong with being a communist.

    That might be debatable.

    Being a tankie on the other hand… Fuck them

    This is not.

    Communists are people who live on a commune.

    That's perhaps not a commonly(hah) agreed definition of the word.

    Are you going to discredit footage shot from a video camera because “video cameras don’t spawn in air in real life, dude”?

    I deem it questionable based on that. The internet is full of videos that are cut conveniently or shown without context in order to paint a dishonest picture.

    I might donate to my local instance though. They seem like cool cats.

    I feel like I need to remind you that Putin publically ignored a public warning about it.

    Also, FSB is now blaming Ukraine.

    Every inch of this smells like another 1999.

    I played Warzone 2100 for a long time. It isn't as good as Total Annihilation (nothing is), but it had some interesting component-based units.

    I should try Veloren some day. It seems very interesting.

    If Putin takes hints from lemmygrad (as it sometimes seems like he does), they will blame USA for this somehow.

    edit Oh, of course they are going to blame Ukraine. Putin was just elected, so he's gonna do/allow another fake terrorist attack in Russian soil. Like he has done several times before.

    They just want to force them out. Just a little ethnic cleansing.

    If that's their goal, aren't they progressing rather slowly? Gaza's population is growing, not diminishing.

    Lenovo already ships these https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadx/thinkpad--x13s-(13-inch-snapdragon)/len101t0019

    Lenovo claims 28 hours of video playback when running Windows. Bad part is that they don't allow this configuration without an OS, and it's quite expensive.

    I don't know much about them beyond knowing this. But this looks promising. Unfortunately, ARM laptops are usually quite locked down unlike x86.

    edit https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Lenovo_ThinkPad_X13s & https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Thinkpad_X13s-- well, it might even work
