Something tells me you don’t really understand south american geography

It’s closer for the Americans to sail on down to Venezuela than for the Argentinians to do anything.

… Granted, there’s like a dozen south american countries the gringos still have a chance to fuck up.

BRICS is trying to offer us third worlders an alternative to eternally swallowing the United States’ boots, you mean.

Pulsar edit was the one I tried.

Vscodium.

Or one of the many variants of ol’ Sublimetext and Atom (Sublime is paid for, Atom has been abandoned, but there are successors)

it’s fine

they’re fine

we’re fine

I will say one thing though:

It does feel like this is entirely unsurprising.

Israel have been doing everything in their power to prove they are straight up cartoon villains

And as for Thunberg? Much as as I admire her, it was a matter of time before her speaking truth to power resulted in something like this. If it hadn’t been Israel it would have been the Putin or Trump regimes.

But who knows, maybe now that it’s a white chick getting warcrimed, the bulk of first worlders might maybe possibly start giving a shit about this.

You ever see a person deepthroat a boot?

Ah yes. The great tyranny of checks notes digital payment processing

You know, we already have this in Brazil. The countryside has not, in fact, been burninated. In fact, last I checked we’d been schooling the first worlders on how to actually handle fascists.

Oh and we never had to bend the knee to MasterCard’s forced purity rules because our digital payment system isn’t privatised unlike yall’s.

You need to lay off the shrooms, mate. They’re fucking with your mind.

(* They are both the same person)

It’s not

But when you have an anxiety disorder paired with a lifetime of observed terribleness from the world, it can feel like it is.

So you’ll excuse me if I’m holding the celebration in fear of the other shoe that might not even drop.

Dead Charlie Kirk

Bolsonaro off to the slammer

Things have been going pretty well. Can’t wait for it all to go to hell again

I know I’m very late to the party and any comment in a thread with 200+ posts is like yelling at the void.

BUT

My experience with Windows has hardly been “it just works”. In fact it has been a history of decades of tinkering and messing around with it to try and get it to do what I want.

The only difference is that Windows obscures everything, so when something breaks it does so quietly. Meaning you might not notice… Or. More likely. It’ll just crash out and you don’t even have an error code to google.

This isn’t to say that Linux isn’t a balancing act of constant maintenance. It is. Just… The Windows experience was never “better” for me from that angle. And… On some level, I enjoy all the tinkering. I think all Linux folks do.

I do

Largely because the CIA still exists and who knows if they won’t miss the good ol operation condor days.

Bold of you to assume incompetence and not malice

They did

And make no mistake Lula is also a crook, he just so happens to be a crook I’m aligned politically with (reformist leftist rather than neofascist)

But that just further proves the Teflon claim:

He did get locked up.

And now he’s president again.

Idk how it is in the first world

But over here it’s pretty much a known fact that every politician is a Mafioso first and a politician second. When they do get in trouble it’s usually because they messed up enough in the political sphere that the other crooks decide to use the apparatus of law to fuck them over. Because if it were about their crimes they’d ALL be behind bars.

I would say “and THAT is how you do it, America”

But I have no faith in this sticking. Mr. Pockets is made of Teflon.
