  • Dear Nerds: I'm Lookong into Getting a Desktop plz Halp

    Jump

  • imo you should look for someone posting their desktop computer from the early-mid-2010s on ebay, facebook marketplace, or craigslist. Should be able to pick up a rig that can easily do what you want for $200-$300 at most. Or if you are building your own you should buy all your components used off ebay.

  • One thing that helps is understanding that nearly by definition you cannot be a main character in a socialist revolution. It ain't all waiting on you. This isn't to say your contributions are unimportant, because without lots of people just like you doing the thing out of some faith it makes a difference nothing good will happen. But the world is not on your shoulders.

  • In the imperial core, maybe. The onanistic FIRE economy is not fertile ground for a socialist revolution along any template we have seen before (masses composed of agricultural peasants or industrialized factory workers). People, even frothing fash who have fox news pumped directly into their eyeballs for a staggering number of hours per day, are not willing to cast aside their comfort and die (or even go to prison) for a cause. It is what it is.

    One interesting historical point. Tsar Alexander II was assassinated in 1881. The Russian revolution didn't happen until 1917, thirty-six years later. The leadup to these things is long. And things in the US are very far away from the equivalent of the Tsar being assassinated.

    However, we have the time constraint of climate change. The material reality will either act as a forcing function for revolution or it will not. Impossible to predict.

  • Out of very morbid curiosity I looked at what /pol/ is saying about this. While wading past torrents of racism I came across a link to a pretty interesting post they made about him back in July of 2023 (warning for homophobia and probably racism and such): https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/434409880/

  • I guess I'd never really thought of it but is half-life 2 literally a Palestine resistance simulator? The combine even took over earth in the "7 hour war".

  • Where’s all the cool shit in the US?

    Jump

  • Because all the power and well-paying jobs are associated with control of creation and propagation of capital itself rather than physical necessities like food or goods. Like what would it even mean to unionize Goldman Sachs? The only real leverage point left is logistics, to stop people from getting their treats on time.

  • I've never really seen it get hate, if it did then maybe I wouldn't have played it which granted isn't really a large tragedy, my time is not particularly valuable or otherwise well-invested

  • More I think about the problem the more I think it's just nobody has cracked how to build a socialist party in a FIRE economy, or even proven that it's viable to do so. If it isn't viable then revolution can only come from the global south.

  • Pretty similar to high-altitude mountaineering in that you have to spend tens of thousands of dollars and years of training & preparation to die in that way.

  • friend's bf has been posting diving photos on facebook the past few years and he's definitely headed in this direction. Last year he took a cave diving safety course, which of all safety courses in the world ironically increases your risk of death the most (followed by avalanche safety courses). Then just this month he posted some photos of him trying a rebreather. It's so over, there's basically a countdown over his head at this point.

    Underrated fact about diving (not even very) deep is nitrogen narcosis, you basically get drunk and your decision-making ability is extremely inhibited. Throw that in with a fuck ton of objective danger!
