Why do the brits always think they’re allowed to draw lines on territory that doesn’t belong to them, and evict native peoples.

I remember reading the selfish gene maybe a decade ago… iirc a meme is really just any idea, that like a gene, can replicate and spread, and has a “fitness” to its environment that means it either spreads easier, or dies out. It applies to any idea / mental construct, from art, music, even to philosophies or moods.
I call this the finders keepers rule of colonialism. The western supremacists think that as long as you
- Kill a large enough percentage of the native population, and
- Wait long enough
Then the finders keepers rule kicks in, and you get to keep anything you stole. They even will yell “no ethnostates!!” at indegenous peoples they evicted and stole land from.
The main point is that its not for anyone but indigenous peoples to determine what they want to do with their land.
Bloodthirsty british and european settlers, greedy for land, wiped out hundreds of native tribes, each with rich cultures, art, languages, and beliefs. And most of this happened less than 150 years ago.
Clearing an entire continent of peoples is unprecendented in history, and what’s worse, is that it’s still ongoing, and no one has had to account for this earth-shattering crime.
Some audiobook torrents on the US settler colonial project:
What is this supposed to mean? Are you insinuating that the genocide of palestinians or native americans is trivial?
You’re not sure if you oppose the genocide of indigenous peoples or not?

I’m not sure either. I think arch used to be one of the less popular distros (because of the more involved install process, solved now by the arch-based distros with friendly installers), despite having some of the best features, so it required more “evangelism”, that’s unecessary now. Arch-based distros are now some of the most popular ones, so its not necessary.
Others have commented on why its so great, but the AUR + Rolling releases + stability means that arch is one of the “stable end states”. You might hop around a lot, but its one of the ones you end up landing on, and have no reason to change from.
USA.jpegright there. That image is for everyone who lives there except for like three cities. And the bike route is actually crossing several major roads.
In that case flatpak is basically a hack for OS’s with broken or improper dependency manangement systems. Either those OS’s should fix their broken systems, or ppl should move to OS’s that do it properly, as that’s one of the most important functions of your OS anyway.
Which ones? Everything in the arch main repos are compiled for your system, and most things in the AUR can either be built from source, or have -bin installs.
Can someone explain why flatpak isn’t necessary for distros that have proper OS dependency management like Arch-based distros or Nix?
Seems like flatpak is solving a problem for OS’s that don’t have proper dependency management.
Why, it’s totally unnecessary.
Nice, those are some good bird pics. I like the coloration and little red flourishes on the woodpeckers.
Around me we get a lot of nut hatches, and titmouses which are my fav. They have little mohawks, and are quirky, but brave, as I’ve seen them do david and goliath standoffs with much bigger birds like crows. Not my pic but here’s one
I’d really love to get into that, especially bird photography as it’s been fun to try to learn bird calls and try to spot them. Nature really recharges the brain in a way nothing else can. Esp for those of us who are goal oriented or always feeling the need to be accomplishing something, being out in nature helps us drop all the expectations and distractions.
You do not, under any circumstances, “gotta hand it to javascript”.
Love this quiz btw
