Well obviously, seize the means of production?

Only so I don't have to turn down the volume, and turn it back up when the episode starts.

It uses the Xen hypervisor, not qemu/KVM. Technically it is a Xen kernel virtualizing Linux since it is a type 1 hypervisor.

TBH i used to alt-tab away from what ever non-work-related thing i was doing, to a terminal emulator when ever my boss walked in.

It was usually showing my latest package upgrade.

I think you mean Cole's Law

Lots of people have already mentioned Ventoy.

MediCat is Ventoy with a ton of images and a config file. It seems great, although I chose to roll my own as MediCat had a lot of Windows-centric images i have no need for.

No Children - The Mountain Goats

But not in a "fuck you world, I'll do what I want" kinda way. More of a "I wanna watch it burn" kinda way.

Oh how sweet is the irony of the bigots in this thread, who thinks the tag is there to "free" from them from seeing gay people holding hands and kissing, when it's actually there because bigots have outlawed being gay some places.

By "heavily homosexual", do you mean pornographic? Because that's a separate tag.

Edit: typo.

That argument is obviously wrong.
Homosexuality (and other sexualities) exist in nature. This is not uncommon knowledge.

Also, the whole "they don't make babies so they're unnatural" thing. How long have you thought this argument through?
Humans and animals are born sterile, they grow too old and become infertile. All of that happens in nature.

That fantasy world of yours is verifiably not how nature works, and it wouldn't take you more than 5 minutes to disprove the bullsh*t.
It makes it hard to believe you are arguing in good faith.

Thanks for the recommendation, stranger. I'm gonna watch that!

My favorite movie is probably Brazil (1985). It's a dystopian movie, but the population is suppressed by absurd amounts a bureaucracy (also the state surveiling and killing it's people). You need to fill out a form to fill out a form, and every screen is tiny, but magnified by a lens to be small instead.

But what I really love about it is the the "terrorist" Archibald Tuttle (who, very much, is not the protagonist); a repair man, who risks execution by the state, zip lining around the city fixing things like the protagonist's air condition.

I think we should all strive to be more like Tuttle in our daily lives.
