maybe vdo.ninja? it uses webrtc and has not given me performance issues thus far

controlled opposition lenin quote

they are controlled opposition in my opinion, if you follow the money (i.e. financed primarily by google to my knowledge) and look at their current diversification in service offerings they appear to be ‘privacy-washed’ or ‘ethics-washed’ (for lack of a better term, the equiv. of greenwashing or pinkwashing for tech corps to appear ethical or progressive) with a push to appear as a feature-complete ‘privacy respecting’ alternative to google.

in my opinion proton is doing the same thing, esp atm with their push towards non-profit status. openai (which is obviously not open in any sense od the word in the industry they operate in) is also i believe governed by a non-profit entity… or at least the for-profit part of their company is.

non-profit status with larger organizations i think like any other large organization is not worth taking at face value, but idk someone here prob has a better handle on it than i do…

you love to see it folks, one of the people representing the people

not quite as bad as adobe, but they are among the worst

im anxious around people and feel constantly on edge or potentially threatened even when others are kind and flash a smile.

having a space where i can be certain things are where i expect them and when im looking for stuff i dont need to keep up appearances…

the book or tale… but it seems it is not with you sadly… thanks for sharing though!

Hey im a bit confused, you are saying to randomly generate information like personal details whenever signing up for anything? Is this better than using a made up real sounding name?

Interesting, the link to language is rather brilliant. Question for you comrade, what thoughts do you have on Lenin’ mention of a single language and Stalin’ piece on linguistics/language? I’ll link it below.

My thoughts are still forming, what immediately comes to mind is the use of pidgin english in colonial china and the forceful push of what is now modern-day french over other languages in the region. Occitan I believe and perhaps Basque (not sure about this one at all) I have a source here but I cannot make any claims about its quality.

Another thought which came to mind (seeing ‘quebec’ in the url of the previous link) is Cree which is to my knowledge the indigenous language in kanada with the largest geographical spread, I believe because it was used for communication between indigenous groups (who each had their own languages and cultures).

Apologies for the rambling, I meant to make a coherent point but instead I wandered off…

link pls

i have a somewhat reputable source here, do you think if you did watch it or engage with it, it changes your view in anyway?

it’s from cbs news: https://www.cbsnews.com/video/tank-man-photographer-reflects-on-30-years-since-tiananmen-square/

to do my best to engage in good faith, could you let me know what you think about this interview with the person who took the famous ‘tank man’ photo?

best of luck

you think there are sectarian conflicts between like arabic numerals, babylonian base 12, i ching base 2, hindu numbers, roman numerals, etc?

“No it isn’t 2 towers, they are two 1’s so it’s actually 3 in base 2!!”

“Nuh-uh, it’s a signed bit so it’s negative 1”

“You fools! they are two I’s therefore it is II or 2!”

“11 two 1’s make 11!!1!”

or something like that i think

I used github pages, now I use codeberg pages. It’s nice I suggest you try it out (for static content like a blog, it’s great).

i like this framing

wow this is a wild ride, every sentence pulls you in a different direction

🤢🤮

fyi mendel was ‘rediscovered’ and there was a bit of difficulty in having mendelian inheritance work with darwinian natural selection / adaptationism.

can look up the ‘modern synthesis’ to learn a bit about it. a marxist who talks about it with a specialty in biology is richaed c lewontin. he has a massey lecture called ‘biology as ideology: the doctrine of dna’ and you can listen to it on youtube or read the associated publication which is a short book that is a essentially a transcription.

no biology background needed.

contemporary discourse is really a poisoned well, philosophers and scientists i whose work i admire seem to shut off their brains when it comes to lysenko.

i cant read the stuff you shared, i did read an english translation of i think a committee meeting and it was entirely reasonable.

they did make references to things i didnt understand, and still would like to go through, like morganism and morgan’s work.

my assessment was lyenko had an appropriate approach to the empirical evidence and methods of the time. hopefully i can try to parse the works you shared. i really find it disapointing that the rather unique conditions of the environment where the task to grow sustenance is almost never mentioned by opponents.
