"What is bourgeois democracy? Let’s not be fooled into thinking the capitalist state is the neutral, classless, omnibenevolent body it claims to be, in a society split between two classes whose interests are irreconcilable. Like all states, the capitalist state is a machine of class rule, whose function is to maintain the capitalist system – the enslavement of the working class to the capitalist class in chains of wage labour. Elections determine who will manage the state on behalf of the bosses. This is why their candidates can only offer us shit. The needs of capitalism win no matter who we vote for. When the 2008 recession hit, the system demanded austerity, and all three parties provided!"

"In fact, the capitalists have turned to bourgeois democracy time and time again as the ideal political shell for their dictatorship. Firstly, it provides a civilised way for the moneybags to resolve their own internal squabble; we can see this in how Labour and the Tories are currently both competing for the job of austerity manager. But more importantly, universal suffrage creates the powerful illusion that 'the majority' or 'the people' are in control; that the capitalist state really is a neutral body; that we have a real say over society, not just picking between masters."
"Of course, the bourgeoisie also has its own alternative to elections. If elections prove ineffective as a tool for social control, and these new democratic governments go the same way as their predecessors by failing to contain the capitalist crisis and resulting working class unrest, the bourgeoisie may turn to more authoritarian methods of government, which the resurgent right would be happy to deliver. Elections may particularly become less important in the eyes of the bosses as conditions increasingly ramp up to generalised war."

everyone knows by now that doctors are paid off by insurance companies for vaccination compliance, which is why they try to bully you into taking them. but did you know they're also paid off to NOT give you antibiotics for ACUTE BRONCHITIS?

I agree with that

they should simply just use the widely available cheap and reliable "test for bacteria" method

@vriska and there's the real problem, you can do a throat culture easily, but determining whether that bacteria (or virus) is causing the infection is tough.

insurance looks at it from a bureaucratic numbers perspective. doctors look at it through their individual experience. who do you trust here? the insurance company or the doctor? i'll take my chances with the doctor especially since i like mine and he's smart enough to know the risks of taking antibiotics unnecessarily.

furthermore in the past i've been able to judge by how it feels, tastes, and visually by looking at the throat, whether there are signs of a bacterial infection.

this incentive discourages doctors using their judgement, even if a good diagnostic test isn't available

Press Release from MODEVITE on the Palenque -San Cristóbal Highway


We, the Tseltal, Tsotsil Indigenous peoples, and the mestizo community, express our opposition to the Palenque–San Cristóbal de las Casas Highway project in Chiapas, and to the construction of the first stretch from Palenque to Ocosingo, as it violates our right to self-determination, to our territory, to live in harmony with nature, and to a healthy, safe, and sustainable environment. We want to make it clear that from its inception, this highway has been a discriminatory, racist, and exclusionary project aimed against those of us who work the land and inhabit the territory.

The Palenque–San Cristóbal de las Casas highway project is not new—it has been proposed since the administration of Chiapas Governor Juan Sabines Guerrero (2006–2012), in collaboration with the Federal Government. Although it has been justified under the guise of “development,” the highway has not been built thanks to the resistance of organized communities that emerged due to the lack of official information and transparency about the project.

In this current administration, the present governor, Eduardo Ramírez, has revived this construction project, and in alliance with the federal government, it has now become one of the most significant projects in the country.

Eduardo Ramírez stated to the media that he would not carry out the construction of the highway without first consulting the people and Indigenous communities. Therefore, on February 17, 2025, the “Guidelines for Conducting Public Consultations Related to Strategic Development Projects in the State of Chiapas” were published in the Official State Gazette, inventing a participation mechanism called a “Public Consultation.”

The so-called “Public Consultation,” according to the government’s published Guidelines, is a mechanism through which people can decide whether or not they agree with the implementation of projects that the government classifies as “strategic development.” These Consultations are overseen by the governor himself and the General Secretariat of Government and Mediation, without including specialized authorities such as the National Institute of Indigenous Peoples (INPI).

Thus, on March 23 of this year, a Public Consultation was held regarding the first stretch of construction—from Palenque to Ocosingo—in the municipalities of Chilón, Salto de Agua, Palenque, and Ocosingo. In this consultation, the authorities did not respect our right to access environmental, social, cultural, or project execution information. The communities were not informed in advance; the invitation was only shared via social media, failing to reach the many communities where there is no cell phone or telephone service. Furthermore, polling stations were only placed in municipal centers—between two and six per location. We witnessed serious irregularities, including people who were not from the municipality being allowed to vote, thus making decisions about land that is not theirs. The true owners of the land, and those most directly affected, were not taken into account.

Once again, the bad government directly discriminates against the Indigenous peoples who inhabit this region. Racism and contempt for Indigenous communities persist, even after the constitutional reform to Article 2, which recognizes our right to consultation and self-determination.

In response to the repeated violations of our human rights, today, March 31, 2025, we have filed two legal injunctions (amparos): one against the guidelines for conducting public consultations, because they are unconstitutional; and another for violating our right to a free, prior, informed, culturally appropriate, and good-faith consultation, which is part of our right to self-determination. We have also decided to exercise our right to petition by submitting requests for information to the Governor of the State, to the Head of the General Secretariat of Government and Mediation, and to the Secretariat of Infrastructure of the State of Chiapas. We demand that they make public the information on the environmental, cultural, and social impacts related to the construction of the Palenque–San Cristóbal highway and the stretch from Palenque to Ocosingo, so that we may freely and informedly decide the future of our territory, ensuring care and respect for our Mother Earth.

Finally, we inform society in general that, based on our right to decide on our own development, the preservation of our cultural and ancestral heritage, our territory, health, equality, self-determination, and autonomy, we—the original peoples—have signed the Declaration of Peoples Free from Megaprojects, a document that represents our collective decision to resist the government’s imposition of a project that violates our rights and threatens the life of our communities.

The land is not for sale—it is cared for and defended.

Changed the oil and blades on the rider and push mower, mowed, trimmed, planted 7 hydrangeas, then weeded the landscaping. Now I’m sipping some bourbon and admiring the fruits of my labor. Tomorrow I spread 15 bags of mulch and take care of the wife’s flower garden around the mailbox. Spring hits different when you get older.

Nice. I planted 3 apple trees, and two peach trees. That’s enough for today. Now I’m grilling some burgers and chilling out.

Time of great 'UNCERTAINTY,' no one knows how situation with world trade will evolve — Lavrov news-pravda.com/world/2025/04/…

I have an uncontrollable fear of turning right into oncoming traffic. Filter lane or flow control lights is fine but I will drive miles out of my way and make three left turns before I cross a lane of traffic. I'll walk or take public transport before doing a roundabout.

you'd love it in Washington State, there's left turn arrows on nearly every light for absolutely no reason other than to cater to people like you, I guess? (Though it sounds like you'd have to learn to drive on the other side of the road, IDK what that might do to your crazy phobia.)

Wouldn't be an issue except that they turn red and you can't turn even though you can clearly see that no one is coming.

The reason you need left turn lights here in Washington are the morons who when making left turns rather than enter the intersection and then wait for either a clearing or the light to change, instead wait outside of it and need a clearing at least five blocks long to turn, and when it doesn't happen and the light turns red they, and everyone behind them, is stuck there for yet another traffic cycle.

The Babylon Bee gets it.

That means that Hamas is expanding to have a Syrian chapter.

So Israel will level most of Syria till all Hamas are dead, the rest will be "cleansed" by the Turkish invaders, also running an anti-terrorist campaign.

how to investigate unexpected power management behavior

I have a lowend netbook with debian-type linux only (no dualboot). Power management should be via XFCE4's xfce4-power-manager-settings.

I'm having weird behavior with suspend and trying to identify/troubleshoot it. It seems to be usually draining power and never charging when the lid is closed for many hours.

I tried explicitly entering power off, hibernate and suspend followed by unplugging then leaving it a few hours but couldn't replicate. It seems to be doing something on its own after being unplugged a long time.

What logs can I look at to see when my device changes its power modes, what were the triggers, what settings are governing it etc?

I can't tell if it's a software issue or there is some sort of power saving thing going on in the hardware or what.

Just hoping for some investigation tips here, I know its not enough info to solve.

Edit to clarify no dual boot.

i can positively say that i'll never buy another samsung monitor, the 'smart' nonsense is not welcome and can't be deactivated. UI is retarded and bad. there's no button for 'change input'.
@phnt no, the samsung is running some dumb samsung system that's not android. i think they just unified their tvs and monitors, but not in a good way
@phnt sounds like they caught on to the fact that people were viewing stuff on computer monitors without being spied on

Did you know? The word “trumpery” appeared in the 15th century with the meanings “deceit” or “fraud”. 100 years later, it was being applied to objects of little or no value. Then in the 1900’s, it came to mean “showy but worthless”. — Today, it is equated with “fascist shit”.

Yemen launches fresh attack on Tel Aviv with drones en.mehrnews.com/news/230442/Ye…

So the #FDA has lowered its #labor expenses only to jack-up their #OpEx instead.

In no universe is a #contractor less expensive than a #FTE.

Fucking morons... #Trump, #Musk, #DOGE, this entire Shitler regime! #USpol

cbsnews.com/news/fda-replace-l…

The only reason to do this is to send cash to oligarchs instead of workers.

#USpol #TrumpCabinetOfCorruption

I was thinking that too but then DOGE just cancelled a bunch of Accenture contracts for actual contractors helping out some of the agencies.

I think it's so they can accurately say they've lowered their labor expenses at the {cough} expense {cough} of increasing their operational expenses.

But even that doesn't make sense now that I think about it.

Adolf said DOGE was going to cut out government waste and expenditures and rehiring all the people you laid off as contractors is directly counter to that.

Eh...

Who knows.

Time to celebrate the #BrewDay with a special #cocktail that's only available on such days. The Hot Scotchy is made by mixing scotch with fresh wort (unfermented #beer). Ratio is up to you, here I've got about 5:1 wort to scotch.

Some people claim this creates an approximation of what your finished beer will taste like, but I've never found that to be true. It's especially untrue when you use sweet wort (wort before hops are added to it) which is what I'm drinking here.

@wannabemystiker it looks like the yield for Crystal hops is a bit lower than Glacier so you may not have the same problem. Though it really depends on how much you brew and how hoppy the beers you make are.

hopslist.com/hops/aroma-hops/c…

hopslist.com/hops/dual-purpose…

@wannabemystiker Mt Hood yield is WAY lower, nearly half that of Glacier and ~70% that of Crystal. Santiam looks similar to Mt Hood for yield so you probably won't be too overwhelmed 🤞🙏

What the actual f is wrong with Linux?

I'm not a master pro Linux user. I've dabbled over the years several times. It's been about 6-8 years since I've last used it. I am having the absolute worst experience I have ever had with any OS so far, I have to be doing something wrong.

First. R7 5800x3d. 32gb ram. Rtx 3060. Nvme dual boot.

Problems so far, this is my first day. One, changing my monitors orientation and position cause my mouse to be on one screen and actively click on a different screen.

Whenever I open settings to change date and time the program crashes.

My mouse movement is that of a spastic child and is not smooth and I can't install ghub on Linux, so I'm forced to use the OS adjustments, which in turn crash the settings application.

The OS is SLOW! like insanely slow. I open discord and literally 3-4 minutes goes by before the loading pop up appears.

If I click in an icon, there is no indication that I clicked it until 1-2 minutes later, this even happens with like Firefox or chrome, file browser. Any app.

I have to have a password to do anything. Why? No one is going to steal my PC, boot it up and smash f11 to get into my Linux box where I'm just messing around.

I don't understand.. I have used Ubuntu before, fedora, mint and a few others. But it just seems like it's absolutely garbage right now.

Do I have to install certain things? Do I have to install Nvidia drivers? Doni have to install chipset drivers?

And honestly question, why do simple takes require you to "run a script"? Like why?
