It’s not every day a major politician sits down with Joe Rogan.
Bernie Sanders did, and now we know why most skip the invitation.
Bernie pushed the global warming narrative. Rogan crushed him with undeniable data.
Then it got worse.
Rogan made Sanders instantly regret saying we should tax the rich more—because Rogan immediately asked why we’d give more money to a corrupt government.
This started out with his bait and switch tactic. He complained aobut the minimum wage and then noted most people get paid more than the minimumk wage.
Sanders showed up with a bunch of notes and still ended up looking like an idiot.
Why do so many people continue to think he is something good?
hey TFM, you missed 3 superchats today from entropy. One was from Bob and the other two were from MVTT X and I figured I'd let you know. Maybe you can read their chats next stream?
oh thanks man, I really appreciate that. Also I never saw your comment on entropy. Looking forward to the saturday show man, seems like shit is finally happening! Haha
@protontroll7 I post a message on entropy at the beginning of the show that if your superchat doesn't feed into the widget that I'll screenshot it and answer it manually next stream.
In the race for the Democrat nomination to be mayor of New York City, Andrew Cuomo has now conceded to far left socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani, who is now poised to win the contest.
Government Media Office has stated that in just 30 days, Israeli forces killed 549 starved Palestinians, injured 4,066, & left 39 missing, all while they were trying to reach food at so-called US-Israeli “aid centers” across #Gaza. What was promoted as “humanitarian aid” became a systematic trap. People were lured, then gunned down as they reached for survival
Regarding the desire for Final Fantasy to return to traditional turn-based combat, Square Enix said “they are aware of Expedition 33 and consider command-based RPGs to be Square Enix’s origin and foundation”. For Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, Square Enix insisted “They value the command-based RPG genre and plan to continue delivering games in this style in the future”. For fans disappointed by FF16, this is fantastic news as it means Square Enix intend to return the series to the command-based formula it made popular.
No it doesn't. Assuming the translation is accurate, they said they still like turn-based games and will continue making turn-based games. Octopath Traveler and Bravely Default would fit here, especially in reference to their desire to make more "mid tier" games when asked about Clair Obscur. "For Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest" does not appear in the translated text as context to making more turn-based games, though I don't think Dragon Quest has been real-time to date? Hey, maybe I'm wildly off base here, but it appears to me like the author of this article added what they wanted the tweet to say rather than what it actually says.
Yeah that's how I understand it, too. They'll do turn-based, but probably not in their "biggest" outings as they know action-based tends to (usually) sell better.
To be fair to the investor, who was probably asking the questions more as a fanboy...do they usually sell better? There are more variables here, like platform exclusivity, to blame for poor sales in Square Enix's recent efforts, but when games like Baldur's Gate 3, Persona, Metaphor: ReFantazio, and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 are outselling Square Enix's real-time games, I don't think we can say turn-based sells worse in such a blanket way.

Zohran includes the importance of guarding against shortages of PPE in his platform. One of the best ways to do that is by implementing a year-round free N95 mask program, which will ensure we have the necessary infrastructure in place well before any new public health emergencies arise.
I get the feeling that if New Yorkers proposed a free N95 program, he'd be all over it, 100%. He seems like the sort of guy. And he'll get to compare its costs to Cuomo's legal fees, always a fun thing to trot out.
it's important to note that the more food you eat, the more toxins you store and metabolize. many toxins like pesticides are fat soluble. high fructose corn syrup is one of the main contributors to obseity and it's often contaminated with mercury.
so fat people are inherently going to be suffering from far more brain damage than people who control their food intake
the "just eat less food" solution seems absurd to fat people but fatness is an indicator of excessive consumption so literally just stop stuffing your face.
everything that goes in there should be nutrient dense and not empty calories because it's all adulterated and contaminated to some degree. empty calories poison you with no nutritional benefit

The war across the Middle East is part of a desperate effort to preserve Western superiority. All the fighting — whether in Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, or Iran — is due to Zionism, and its role of enforcing the crushing force of the West.

Even if someone isn't crying out for "Aryan" supremacy or hate crimes against Jewishness people have more in common with Nazis and their ilk than they might like to think if they disregard the value of life to the extent of supporting genocide. And we should call them out for it.
This interviewee--a regular in the #Berlin "house project scene" (legalized 90s ex squats)--is an example of the kind of people that should be called out as racist, genocide apologists (the only way this person could've said it more directly would be: "yes, kill them all").

Hi!. Currently running Linux Mint 22.1, but i suspect it's not strictly a distro issue. This laptop was running VERY well but was outdated, running Mint 19.3, some things were unable to be installed because the system libraries were old (didn't expect Calibre to be one of them, figures), so i updated all the way to that moment's current version which was Mint 21.3. All of a sudden it felt like the laptop got downgraded two whole computer tech generations. As soon as i ask it to do something mildly complicated that made it break no sweat on Mint 19, it gets VERY slow, all the cores start running at max, system load increases, until it finishes doing whatever it was doing several minutes later, something between a couple of minutes when lucky, to 20 or more. Typically what triggers the issue is something on the browser (what i use the most on the computer is browser tabs and lots of terminals) but not exclusively. Thought it was the browser but replicated it on an empty Firefox profile, and has triggered with simpler stuff like the Discord client. Been trying to find the issue for a while trying to avoid a full reinstall, no luck so far.
If i were to describe how it feels, it's like there was a bottleneck on tasks being done by the system, as soon as you ask it to do something mildly complex it chokes on it and tasks accumulate. No idea if it's some kind of kernel misconfiguration, if it's some hardware incompatibility, or something else entirely, checking the changelogs of Mint all the way between 19.3 and 21.3 showed nothing i could pin this onto (or at least nothing i could notice).
The nuclear option would be a brand new blank install but I'd MUCH rather avoid that if possible, made the comfortable but now unwise choice of a single partition for everything (instead of a separate /home and whatnot as i used to do) so reinstallation would wipe it completely, if i must then i must but much rather not.
Would welcome VERY much ideas on stuff to check or try.
Edit: It's got an NVME drive, which seems to be healthy as far as i can see
Edit: When it happens it doesn't seem to matter how much RAM is free, seen it happen with only 8 of the 32Gb of RAM in use and zero swap
Edit: Found a great way to describe how it feels like: Have you done heavy video encoding on a computer that's adequate for the task but not more than that, and noticed how everything in it stalls heavily, even if there's plenty of RAM free and the computer feels like it's giving everything to that task only? Pretty much that, but for nearly everything even moderately heavy
When this happens, open a TTY by hitting ALT+F2, login, then run top to get a listing of what's running on your machine. It should should what's hitting the CPU at the top of the list.
It would also be good to get an idea of your memory situation, so also run free -m.
Aside from checking the kernel log (sudo dmesg) and system log (sudo journalctl -xe) for any interesting messages, I might suggest simply watching for any processes which are abnormally high while the system is running slow. My initial approach would be to use htop (disable "Hide Kernel Threads" and enable "Detailed CPU Time"), and seeing which processes, if any, are eating up your CPU time. The colored core utilization bars at the top show how much CPU time is being spent on what: gray for disk wait, red for kernel, green for regular user process, etc. That information will be a good starting point.
Really long freezes, while it could be something else, are often caused by the RAM being full, this is called thrashing.
Big memory hogs like the browser or discord could trigger thrashing behaviour if you're already low on RAM. Since this happened after an update, the most likely cause is a bug in any one of the many processes that are running on your computer. That kind of bug is called a memory leak, where a process is requesting memory for something, but then fails to give it back when no longer needed.
You should monitor memory usage to see if it is that, and to find out what process it is.
Nope, that's what i suspected but no, half of the 32Gb of RAM and zero or very little swap are in use when it happens, very good part of why i'm stumped
Ok that's weird. My first guess would be something kernel-related, so maybe try booting the old kernel if you still have it, or just try a different kernel.
I'm guessing you've already turned it off and on again. If not, seriously, do that. It works more time than it doesn't for random weirdness.
Run 'htop' and sort by CPU (it's a friendlier and better version of 'top'. That'll show you what processes are using the most CPU
Whilst you're in there, check the free memory. If that's low, or swap usage is high, then use htop to sort by memory usage to find what's using the most.
If you see processes you don't recognise, hit google and find out why. It's very unlikely they're malicious, but it's far less common on linux than Windows to have random processes doing unknown stuff. If it's using a lot of cpu or memory, there'll be a reason. It might be a dumb reason, but you will be able to find it out.
And then when you know what the guilty process is, if it is that, and it's not critical - you can stop it with systemctl and narrow down what's afoot.
It's happening with whatever is the heaviest process at the moment and has happened for months, MANY reboots since then. Usually the heaviest process is the browser, but not always
Ι'd suggest you try another kernel. This sounds like a kernel/driver issue, since the ssd seems to be healthy. Mint lets you pick from newer kernels, from within the update app. This might solve your issue, or you might want to upgrade to 22.1 too.
Try isolating anything unique to your installation by booting from a live USB of Mint 22.1 or 21.3 and go about your workflow. If it gives the same symptoms, boot from a live USB of Mint 19.3. Hopefully nothing bad happened to your hardware during the update.
Apologies for the late response. And this is probs not what you'd like to hear. But I've heard some industry veterans refer to this as an inevitability of the 'old' model. I believe a radical approach is required to prevent this from happening the next time. Wish ya good luck fam!
At this point, I'm starting to fear that either this might be the case, or that it broke in some way i haven't been able to diagnose, and for both the solution is "replacement"
My apologies fam for not being able to help out much (if at all) 😅. FWIW, for related~ish reasons, I intend to explore the waters of NixOS within a couple of weeks. What are your plans?
Given that as i mentioned elsewhere i did not separate the /home into it's own partition like I've been doing since the 90s, formatting this thing right now would likely lead to losing stuff, i need to organize the files first before i do the nuclear option: A full reformat/reinstall. If that makes no difference in the end, I'll have to consider the possibility of getting a new one. No idea how long will each step take so not the foggiest on when will i do each thing, and that's even without taking procrastination into consideration... 😅
I wish you the best of luck at/with whatever you end up doing! May your system be protected from bit rot, config drift and/or problems caused by hidden state!
