This sort of applies to dev work too, especially if you have ADHD. I overcome blockage by rubber ducking, but sometimes my ADHD gets strong enough that I can’t, for the life of me, sit down to write some trivial code that might as well be a typing exercise. I simply get Cursor to generate the stuff, proofread it, and now that it’s suddenly a bug smashing session instead of typing out some class or component or whatever, I overcome my blockage and can even flow. Speaking as someone that often gets blocked for weeks to months at a time, LLMs have saved me from crashing into deadlines more than a few times.

Legit question @people who know more about Theo than me, but isn’t Theo like, actually a pretty nice guy, even if right wing? Dude kinda reminds me a bit of Destin from SmarterEveryDay, who’s obviously on the redneck side of things, is right wing as far as I can tell, but is still extremely knowledgeable, incredibly chill, and actually cares about the foundations of his stances and doesn’t buy into divisionist rhetorics.

I might be assuming things and jumping to conclusions, which is why I am asking this, but I vaguely recall a video he made which clearly showed he held right wing positions but had no issue tearing down right wing propaganda and stances if they were bullshit.

We meet again! I’m Honduran. The Zelaya family is knee-deep in shit due to the ex-president’s brother being outed as having made deals with drug Lords, heavily implying the Zelaya family is in the drug business, which surprises absolutely nobody because that’s been their history for decades, and because we’ve been a “narco estado” for far too long. There’s no right wing or left wing bullshit here, it’s all a fight for control of a drug state. If anything, this has actually hurt the left’s appearance to the people after over a decade of not having them in the spotlight. Castro has done more to damage the left wing movement than she has done to advance it.

We voted the right wing drug lord out of the country and into extradition, you bet your ass we’ll do our best to try and do the same to the left wing drug lord.

The real problem liberals have with Trump isn’t with his lies

No, it really is. He lies and lies and makes almost everything up, and all every normal person sees is the trump cult eating it all up. Trump says he won, and people go fight for him thinking he did win. Then turns out he admits he lost, and NOW those same trump supporters are angry that he lied to them…when it’s been so obvious to everyone else.

He lies about his intentions, since he clearly likes the power and has profited himself off it, but his supporters think he’s being honest? Maybe he’s being blunt where others would be more formal and evasive, but he’s not being honest, almost ever. If he stands to gain nothing personally, he puts 0 effort into it, and his supporters confuse it as him being honest. It’s so bizarre that they miss it, I genuinely don’t understand it. They just attribute so much purpose to his actions where there is none beyond the need to satisfy his ego and fill his pockets. He couldn’t care less about “exposing the fascist state”, hell, he’s clearly trying to create one under his rule and for his benefit.

It pains me to think that the far left could argue in bad faith, but strawmanning “the libruls” and then making them out to be the radicalized left’s enemy, when they’re the source of most radicalized lefties…it just makes no sense to me.

Maduro is not the people’s friend. The enemy of my enemy is not always my friend.

First post about Honduras I see on Lemmy. I’m from Honduras. Castro is the first left-wing president since her husband was sacked in the 2009 Coup. The two elected presidents since then have all been right wing and have all been involved in drug trafficking and corruption scandals, with the last one, Juan Orlando Hernandez, having been extradited and sentenced in the US over serious drug trafficking charges. His presidency is remembered as a “narco-estado”. During this time, he got reelected, which was previously unconstitutional and which also was the foundational reason for the 2009 Coup: Castro’s Husband, Manuel Zelaya, sought to hold a referendum to rewrite parts of the constitution, with critics of his government as well as a general majority of the populace believing that he sought to write in the ability to run for reelection. He was ousted before the referendum took place. Juan Orlando achieved this by simply replacing the supreme court with his picks, and the court approved the legality of reelections during his time. A tiny little detail about the 2009 Coup: just a month before the coup, then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton visited Honduras in an official context. It is speculated by some that she gave green light on behalf of the US for the coup to occur.

All this to say, we have a bittersweet relationship with the US. I’m personally absolutely not a fan of the US, but without extradition, Juan Orlando and many of his accomplices would have remained free and immune from justice. Castro’s presidency was essentially a vote from the people to bring down justice on Juan Orlando, so we view his extradition as the best thing to have happened in this situation. Naturally, we are not reacting that well to this news now that Castro and her family might receive the same treatment as Orlando: The Zelaya family has a long history of drug trafficking, and Manuel Zelaya’s father was directly involved in a month-long massacre, eventually being convicted to 20 years for the murders alongside other perpetrators, before being released after 1 year by the National Assembly. Castro’s presidency is currently plagued by nepotism in all levels of government, chaos and disarray throughout the legislative branch as parties fight among themselves for power over congress, and recurring cries from Castro herself to follow on the footsteps of Venezuela specifically, which we all can currently see how that’s going for them.

I guess I’m just saying that there’s no right calls when it comes to Honduran governments. It’s all corruption all the way down.

Great, now show me the Linux ARM laptop that’s competing with MacBooks at the consumer level. You do have something that’s actively turning people away from Apple Silicon, yes?

What relevance does Linux have in this specific context? Does Linux have a marketing team? Does Linux compete on a hardware level with Apple? Is there a Linux corp we haven’t heard about that’s working with some chip manufacturer we also haven’t heard about in order to create ARM processors that can compete with Apple silicon? No? Maybe don’t shoehorn Linux into everything regardless of relevance, especially not in such a lane way.

As someone who has a profile only for Whatsapp (used to also be Instagram), a profile for banking & finances, a profile for some stuff that needs play services, and a profile for most other stuff (main profile)…don’t use profiles unless you’re only creating one more at the most, and you’re absolutely certain there’s no need to share information between the profiles.

Graphene has had a long-standing bug from upstream AOSP, if I recall correctly, where it’ll always ask for your pin when changing profiles, and only sometimes will it allow you to use your fingerprint or alternative methods to get into your profiles. I almost never get the fingerprint option for my main profile, and have to tap back from the pin input on other profiles to get the option to use fingerprint, and not always. They do sometimes push something that loosely resembles a fix, but it’ll go back to not working after another update.

Regarding communicating between profiles, that’s hard to pull off. The curveball of having to send screenshots from banking apps, say, confirming transactions, it’s made a lot worse with profiles. I’m currently relying on my nextcloud instance to upload screenshots from finances, then downloading those screenshots from nextcloud into my WhatsApp profile, just to send a proof of transfer to someone. I’m definitely not keeping my phone like this for much longer.

All else considered, however, I’m not going back to a ROM that doesn’t respect me as the owner of my device. I’m happy to have switched to graphene and I am here to stay.

I can’t tell you what it is, because I don’t understand it either, but it’s not that. I’m Honduran, I do spend most of my day with AC. I primarily dress in shorts and breathable clothing. I also see all sorts of people heavily overdressing for the climate, who most definitely don’t have AC most of their day. Things got VERY hot during this time, so I have no idea how people are tanking their way through it. I do know that it feels like I stand out by simply wearing shorts and sandals, even though I really shouldn’t.

Temperatures did hit mid 40s, with temperature sensations breaking the 50c mark. You could stare directly at the sun without any eye protection and be perfectly fine due to how thick the atmosphere was due to the heat dome; a street lamp was probably more intense. It’s just now starting to fade, but it’s still hard to breathe outside some days.

I see where you’re coming from, because I kinda also hate the genres you mentioned in specific, but man, it’s not ALL bad. You put on some Juan Luis Guerra and he makes better bachata than anyone else you can think of. It’s actually fucking enjoyable. It took me decades to even begin to appreciate some of the more pop music (or even tolerate it, cause fuck regueton…but everyone listens to it where I live), and he definitely stands out.

That’s it, I just wanted to mention the 440.

This dude is trying to get people to think, to notice, to act, he’s trying to educate people and to help them change. Maybe don’t immediately disregard him as “not a true socialist”, maybe don’t outright jump to calling him a tankie. We’re all in this hell hole together, the least we could do is help each other out and spread the educational content, work together to give a friendly summary on our points of view, and keep moving forward.

I like his content, and I like that he’s trying, that’s my opinion on him.

Why boycott GrapheneOS? I feel a bit OOTL here, I only know the drama with the ex-lead dev, but I understand that the project as a whole is your best bet at a mobile experience that you control. Am I missing something?

Right? Twitter hasn’t stopped dead naming Twitter, for fuck’s sake

I had pretty much the same experience you did. I did randomly find a reddit post with a ublock custom filter to avoid the whole “page not loading at all” thing. Ever since, I’ve had only one ubo failure that I fixed with the routine filters refresh, and dare I say youtube’s actually been getting faster for me lately? I did have that slowdown, due to their thing that prevented the page from loading, but now it’s almost like they’ve ramped down on their efforts.

Edit: I’m here to stand corrected. Fuckers are messing with any browser that’s not theirs. Add the following filter to ublock if your video pages take 5 seconds to load: www.youtube.com###+js(nano-stb, resolve(1), 5000, 0.01)

This is an asklemmy thread, not an askgunnuts thread. Anyone from any country can answer whatever if they so please. The USA has a weird fascination with guns. This doesn’t translate to other countries at ALL. There’s enthusiasts everywhere, sure, but way less so than on murica.

Note 9, stock Samsung. Looking to jumping into the Pixel 8/Pro with Graphene in the coming months, but gotta save up a bit first.

I’ll one-up you, and I hope nobody I know reads this. I work from home as a web dev. I have ADHD. I sometimes work deep into the night because I procrastinate all day. I’ll be working with one hand and stroking it rock hard with another, with no real horniness or need to cum for hours. It’s just like a fidgeting thing. I’m looking at code, sleep deprived out of my mind, and somehow rock hard. I don’t get it, but I’m too stressed to care.

Are you from the US? Aren’t they phasing this out?

Hard to follow that as a rule. Consider any YouTube video, the video id isn’t exactly human readable.
