It's difficult to take people shitting on arch in here seriously. I'll take 1h per year fixing whatever broke over a whole weekend upgrading Debian.
Oh and god forbid you need to compile yourself a package and maybe a few of its dependencies from scratch because that 6 years old bug didn't make it through the freeze last release.
In case you didn't know, France speaks French, not Spanish or Portuguese.
Try calling people "nègre" over here and see for yourself.
Besides, "preto" is (AFAIK) more used than negro in Brazil. As americanised as Brazil is, I believe their own history gives them the right to adapt their own language if they wish to.
The classic inflation from the economy working a little too well is not a flat tax, since both wages and prices are growing
Inflation doesn't cause wages to grow proportionally, despite what some Harvard wankers like to pretend. Theoretical models are interesting in science, but for something like economy, they are completely useless.
Classic inflation erodes the savings of the rich, and erodes the debts of the poor.
Capital ROI is almost always greater than inflation, meaning wealth inequality increases regardless of inflation. This is before taking into account that physical assets (e.g. housing) also increase in value through inflation, meaning the owning class never loses money to inflation.
Again, theory and practice diverge pretty much entirely.
Inflation is a concept created by governments to be able to run on a perpetual deficit (necessary when you privatise everything profitable by selling it to your buddies). Making a tax on the poor is a "nice" benefit, but don't be mistaken: if the owning class saw it as a threat to their wealth we'd be back to the gold standard already.
Plenty of non Chinese brand are on the EV train now.
I can buy an Alpine that it is, in every conceivable way, better than the cheapest VW EV (while being a bit cheaper, or the same price). How is this not a problem with German manufacturers specifically?
I've recently picked up jujutsu, and it plus gitlab's stacked PR have made splitting up MRs a breeze. Typo in a commit at the top of the chain? "jj edit revision", fix the typo, then "jj git push".
It might come as a shock, but being USian is not a requirement on the Internet
