Le sexe, le genre et Judith Butler - by Nicolas Casaux


#politique #sexe #genre #wokistan

La littérature de la négation du sexe affirme inlassablement que “la distinction physique entre les hommes et les femmes n’est pas absolue” (Whittle [1999] 2002, p. 7) et qu’on ne peut pas “tracer de ligne de démarcation stricte entre les sexes” (Hines 2020, p. 709). En réalité, la plupart des phénomènes empiriques présentent des cas limites. On ne peut pas “tracer de ligne de démarcation stricte” entre, par exemple, le jour et la nuit ou le chaud et le froid, mais personne n’en conclut pour autant qu’il n’existe pas de distinction significative entre ce que ces concepts désignent, qu’ils n’ont aucun sens, ou qu’ils ont été créés par “le pou­voir”. Les phénomènes empiriques présentent généralement des délinéations imprécises. Mais les concepts humains fonc­tionnent toujours parfaitement malgré des contours flous.

Decentralized Game Streaming with Nginx and RTMP


Want to stream to your friends, but don't want to give your video to some centralized service? Here's how.

Thinking about streaming, but uncomfortable with the likes of Twitch and Mixer? Fortunately, they're not the only game in town. Here's how you can set up your own streaming server, with nothing but open source tools.

Before You Begin

Caveats


Unfortunately, this method does have some disadvantages. It's relatively easy to set up, but it has no web interface; your viewers will need VLC (or some other video player that can watch RTMP streams) to watch your stream. It also has no built-in commenting facilities. You can use something else like Mumble, a self-hosted IRC server, or your favorite chat program for that.

Also, if you're running the server on your own network, keep in mind this will give your audience your IP address. Whether this is anything to worry about depends on how much you feel the need to stay anonymous from your audience.

And of course, it won't have any of the inbuilt social features a centralized service brings. You'll need to tell your audience about your stream somehow.

With that out of the way, let's get started!

Installation


You'll need a machine running Unix of some sort; Ubuntu contains all the packages you'll need for this, and it's what this guide will focus on. It can be your gaming machine, a spare computer, or a VPS in the cloud.

Once you have your server machine set up, you'll need to install nginx, as well as nginx's RTMP module. On Ubuntu, you can do it with this command:

sudo apt install nginx libnginx-mod-rtmp

Once you have nginx installed, you should be able to start and stop it with the service command:
sudo service nginx start
sudo service nginx stop

If you're running the server on a machine you use for other things, you may want to stop Nginx from starting whenever you boot the computer.
sudo systemctl disable nginx

Configuration


Now that you have nginx installed, it's time to set up RTMP.

Open /etc/nginx/nginx.conf as root, and add this at the bottom:

rtmp {
    server {
        listen 1935;
        chunk_size 4096;
        application stream {
            live on;
            record off;
        }
    }
}

This tells the RTMP module to listen on port 1935, the default RTMP port, and not to record the video. (If you do want it saved, you can record as you stream with OBS.)

Now save it and restart the server to pick up your changes:

sudo service nginx restart

Streaming


On your gaming machine, you'll want to install OBS Studio. If you're on Windows or Mac or it's not in your Linux package manager, you can get it at obsproject.com.

Once you've installed it, open the settings (File > Settings). In the Stream settings, switch the service to Custom. For the server, enter in your server URL, rtmp://<hostname>/stream. (If your server is on the same machine, this will be localhost; if it's somewhere else on your local network, it'll be <hostname>.local.)

Leave the stream key blank, and you don't need any authentication. Now if you apply the settings and hit Start Streaming, it should go live!

Watching The Stream


Note
If you've got your server set up with a domain name, you can skip finding the IP and just use that instead.


First you'll need to find your server's external IP address. Unless you're running it on a VPS, DuckDuckGo can tell you this if you do a web search for "what is my IP".

Give the stream URL to your audience. rtmp://<ip>/stream

For the audience


To watch the stream, you'll need VLC. If you're on Windows or Mac or it's not in your Linux package manager, you can get it from videolan.org/vlc.

Then hit Media > Open Network Stream..., and paste in the stream URL. If nothing's gone wrong, after a few seconds of loading you should be able to see the stream!

O tal boer trumpista diz que quando fez publicações antissemitas tava sob efeito de morfina.

Meteu o "tava doidão" na cara dura, fez que nem Bolsonaro quando cometeu crime eleitoral na internete "sob efeito de medicamentos".

Essa ideia do genocídio branco na África do Sul daqui a pouco vai descambar pra genocídio branco nos EUA e na Europa, teoria da substituição e "Eurábia"; aliás, tudo o que essa gente do Trump e Elon Musk já acreditam e defendem aos quatro ventos.

E não dá pra esquecer a ligação da quadrilha do Bolsonaro com esses grupos neonazistas e supremacistas! Tava estampado nas lives e na iconografia do grupo. Ele nem usava apito de cachorro: era uma vuvuzela.

Lembro da comoção que foi anos atrás quando nos deparamos com imagens de adultos de fraldas na linha global... um dos eventos canônicos do tempo em que eu estava ainda me habituando ao Mastodon.

Deixando de lado as brincadeiras, achei esse artigo esclarecedor.

Because various people have asked for it, I’ve mirrored all the GitLab Bookface and Postbox repositories to GitHub:
github.com/randompenguin1?tab=…

The canonical location is still on GitLab, that's where I'll still be making the actual commits. The Bookface wiki is also still on GitLab (it apparently doesn't get included when mirroring to GitHub). And the actual Releases are still on GitLab because GitHub apparently only mirrors the version tags.

My projects website page, however, is hosted at GitHub because I ran into problems setting one up on GitLab: randompenguin1.github.io/

Imagine having a bicycle with a closed chain guard. One day the chain falls off & you realize it's assembled with tamper-proof screws.

Now imagine the manufacturer wanting to make unscrewing that screw a felony carrying a 5-year prison sentence & a $500K fine.

They'd be booed out of business, if not institutionalized.

None the less, that's EXACTLY how DMCA 1201 works.

Despite @pluralistic & others' efforts I feel this isn't clear to the general public.

Father of our freedom and salvation,
hear the prayers of those redeemed by your Son’s suffering.
Through you may we have life;

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
Amen.

May the Lord bless us, protect us from all evil, and bring us to everlasting life.

« La #science progresse de façon aveugle, indifférente au véritable bien-être de l’espèce humaine ou à toute autre chose, obéissant seulement aux besoins psychologiques des scientifiques, des représentants gouvernementaux et des dirigeants d’entreprises qui financent la recherche[1]. »
– Théodore #Kaczynski, mathématicien déserteur

« La méthode expérimentale et déductive, depuis 400 ans de succès spectaculaires, augmente sans cesse son impact sur la vie sociale et quotidienne, et par suite, jusqu’à une date récente, son prestige. En même temps, à travers un processus “d’annexion impérialiste” qui devrait être analysé de façon plus serrée, la science a créé son #idéologie propre, ayant plusieurs des caractéristiques d’une nouvelle religion, que nous pouvons appeler le #scientisme[2]. »
– Alexandre #Grothendieck, mathématicien déserteur

Dans les sociétés industrialisées, la #religion scientiste a éradiqué toutes les religions traditionnelles et s’est imposée comme un nouveau #dogme indiscutable. Dans les discours de campagnes électorales comme dans les échanges interpersonnels quotidiens, faire reposer son argumentaire sur l’autorité scientifique est gage de sérieux, de crédibilité. De l’extrême gauche à l’extrême droite, l’ensemble du spectre #politique prête allégeance à la #Science. Elle est présentée par la #propagande du système industriel comme l’institution productrice de la vérité, autrement dit la science serait politiquement « neutre ». Seul l’usage – bénéfique ou délétère – des découvertes scientifiques fait par les gouvernements, les entreprises et les individus déterminerait la trajectoire de la #civilisation industrielle. Mais comme le montre le médecin Arthur #Guerber dans La fabrique du progrès. Scientisme, système technicien et #capitalisme vert (2022), cette neutralité politique attribuée à la science est une fable.

« La connaissance scientifique conçue comme une série de théories cohérentes convergeant vers une conception idéale du savoir et une marche progressive vers la vérité est un conte de fées dont nous devons absolument sortir. La connaissance est un océan toujours plus vaste d’alternatives mutuellement incompatibles qui ne peuvent être fixées. L’idée d’une méthode fixe ou d’une théorie de la rationalité repose sur une conception trop naïve de l’être humain, tiré de son environnement social. » [...]

L'intolérance à l'incertitude court-circuite le doute en faisant faire usage de raccourcis, propre de l'avalanche informationnelle sur les réseaux sociaux, et la confiance en soi détourne de l'attachement à cette incertitude qui est, en théorie, le propre de la science, malgré qu'elle progresse et surtout qu'elle progresse parce qu'elle doute et remet en jeu ses certitudes par l'expérience de ses théories. Par ricochet, si la science apparaît scientiste c'est qu'elle n'est pas science... Savoir à qui se fier relève du défi, certes, mais l'épistémologie encourage des méthodes, progressant avec le temps, qui doivent permettre d'établir des faits et non des opinions. Pour conclure, voir la science comme une religion c'est ne pas regarder du côté de ce que la raison a défini comme étant de la science. Médias, bashing, spectacle, tout ça tout ça
