If you need some joy in your day, this is my gift to you. Jon Batiste is a gem of a human being. He is also massively talented.
In this interview from 2023 with Chris Wallace, Jon talks about the limitations genres put on music. And THEN he genre hops through part of a Beethoven piece on the fly.
It’s so good. And Chris’ face is priceless. He’s almost giddy.

Taxation is obscene, you lose about 50% of your income.
The good side is nobody wants to kill you, imprison you, and ruin your life. So no cops with quotas, no SWATting (they just don't kick down doors over anonymous phone calls, actually kicking down doors AT ALL is extremely rare), no personal injury lawyers, no toxic food.
The bad side is that nobody wants to do anything, so when you need something done, it can be really painful. Like if you're paying someone and they still don't want to work.

It's not just "lazy" in the sense that an American would think of it, it's a whole culture unto itself.
The French don't grovel. Everybody knows that whatever they're paid half is going out the window, so as a result, customer service is hilarious. But if they can see that you're in a tight spot, they'll help you out, because they do care about you as a human being. It's just that whether or not you're paying them doesn't really have an impact on how much they want to help you out.
The French wear you down, until you become one of them...
Another thing about the French is they are experts at not following rules. The French are absolute masters at implicitly negotiating with one another what is and is not an acceptable thing to be doing, with astonishingly little regard for the letter of the law.
America has nothing comparable to this, America has mostly the German concept of enforcing every stupid little rule to the full extent possible, with no regard for the lives of everyone around, or indeed even the reason the rule was implemented in the first place. America also has the Scotts-Irish Borderer concept of breaking every rule possible, and starting a fight with anyone who suggests otherwise, but there's no analogue to the French concept of gracefully breaking the letter of the law while remaining within the spirit and being a good neighbor.
There are different ways to do it. If you're marrying, you can marry a woman from any country in the EU, I recommend looking in Romania.
There are also other ways to get residency. There might even be a special thing for digital nomads now, IDK.
Never been to SEA but it always gave me a weird "cool for vacation, but not to live" vibe, but I guess it works for some people...

Read again about how NASA used to do cost-plus deals for rocket building with boeing, lockheed, etc.
This completely insane way of paying for things means that the contract says that they pay the full cost of manufacturing plus a fixed percentage on top.
What this of course leads to is that the manufacturer is incentivised to make the cost as high as possible.

There is no such thing as a "loneliness" epidemic. There's neoliberalism, and 10% of Western populations who refuse to catch SARS2 over and over again. These are two different issues, tho interrelated.
The "loneliness" epidemic you've read about is the political class applying pressure to people who refuse to catch their favorite plague.
Individualism, a part of neoliberalism's cultural revolution in the 1980s, purposefully replaced community with "enlightened self-interest."
Most of the COVID competent people I'm aware of are *deeply* involved in community efforts, either online or sometimes in person (in safe environments). They aren't lonely, they're angry and unwilling to comply in advance.
This would vex neoliberals and all the well-meaning people who advance their agendas, like erasing the consequences of getting COVID so people would go back to work and keep making the ruling class their filthy lucre.
After all, what use is someone they can't gaslight?

wow even back then, an Old Fashioned was still called “old-fashioned”.
(some research later… started in the early 1800s and was sometimes called a “bitter sling”, went out of fashion a bit, but came back with requests for “give me one of those old-fashioned style cocktails” in the late 1800s)

The Right was wrong. Democratization, as it turns out, is a good thing.
As presented by the Left, the World Wide Web was going to enable a brand of "Democratization" that would empower the various Privileged Identity Groups--Jews, blacks, Mestizos, Muslims, Feminutz, queers, etc.--to speak some imaginary truth to White men and convert Western Civilization into a cosmopolitan MultiCult. Destroying Whites forever.

A ton of things were updated in jobcomm
While rebuilding/updating some jobcomm pkgs freerdp2 was called as a makedependency and it only comes from obcommunity or from extra/ but asks for systemd
It appears as some gpg certificate has expired for the obcommunity builder and its packages being signed fail validity check. We built our own version of the pkg without systemd but in case you encounter another problem with obcommunity pkgs let us know and we will try to accomodate the need.
This is an ongoing obarun problem for the past 8 years, and it can only get worse as the packager bots seem to have grown in number and it is always too late they are renewed.
We opted not to sign packages, even if the builder is a single entity because we encourage people to build their own and replace binaries.

It's truly disgustingly sinister how the elite of the western world have created the perfect conditions for fascism to exist and thrive amongst the masses. It's been so disheartening to see such a common opinion exist against people from developing countries who've come to my own - judging their culture, their religious practices and their poverty - as if the west isn't to blame for their countries' stagnation.
The west isn't "just looking out for itself". It benefits from keeping them down.
And it's an incredible sight to see the pendulum of morality among the general population. They claim "these immigrants aren't assimilating to our culture. They don't respect women's rights, they're very religious (just not Christian, of course), they hate queer people".
My brother in [bleep], YOU ARE THE EXACT SAME WAY. You can't complain about middle eastern migrants doing these things when you accept and encourage this rhetoric amongst your own people HOOOLY SHIT
"Why can't they just stay in their country and try to improve it?"
Because your ENTIRE economy and luxurious lifestyle depends on terrible living conditions in their countries. And our politicians have been, and keep doing, everything in their power so that it stays that way.
But of course, because they had the misfortune of being born in a country that has been made to serve you, they can never win. They should never win, according to the shits you refuse to give about anyone but yourselves.
"why can't they just stay in their country and try to improve it?"
BECAUSE YOU FUCKING DESTROYED THEM YOU IGNORANT CUNT!
