Karl Marx: The simple circulation of commodities - selling in order to buy - is a means of carrying out a purpose unconnected with circulation, namely, the appropriation of use-values, the satisfaction of wants. The circulation of money as capital is, on the contrary, an end in itself, for the expansion of value takes place only within this constantly renewed movement. The circulation of capital has therefore no limits. As the conscious representative of this movement, the possessor of money becomes a capitalist. His person, or rather his pocket, is the point from which the money starts and to which it returns. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

I'm upgrading my builds and I decided to get a new monitor so I splurged on the Samsung G9 49" Curved OLED.

My personal and work ARM MBP's require significant tweaking to get the G9 working with a good DPI and font rendering.

@k8ie I think it really depends on which OS you want to run, and what the time frame is.
If the PinePhone works for you, I don't think there's any much need to worry. I was actually almost positively surprised during my experiments that led to the blog post: Mobian Trixie (which ships GTK 4.18) worked surprisingly well overall from SD card, and the Alpine 3.21 container is nice and small and keeps a working Megapixels around.

@k8ie For current options, it's not too easy:
- FuriLabs FLX1 reportedly is a good experience, but no mainline,
- RK3588s options (Liberux Nexx, dawndrums Divine D) seem multiple months away,
- FairPhone 5 lacks audio support on mainline (USB-C dongle works though),
- Shiftphone 8 (same SoC as Fairphone 5, but 12 GB RAM is supposedly shipping in August) and how well support will pan out is unknown.
OnePlus 6, Poco F1, Pixel 3a are affordable, but also aging (with hard(er) to replace batteries).

  • Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
  • Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
  • Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
  • Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
  • Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
  • Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
  • Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
  • Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
  • Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
  • Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
  • Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
  • Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
  • Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
  • Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
  • Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
  • Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
  • Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
  • Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
  • Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
  • Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
  • Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
  • Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
  • Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

The leftist press and their loyal dingbats are going to slam Qatar over and over.

Then Trump and the Emir will announce normalisation with Israel.

Then the same will happen with Syria.

Then the biggie behind them all, Iran.

And the press will be left behind the peacemakers, still bitching about the 747!

There’s my prediction for the day.

@TXPatriot2021 if every station showed the talks/interviews of the foreign dignitaries they wouldn’t be so surprised. The honors that have been shown POTUS have been awesome. Everyone has smiles and eager to talk to him and shake hands. I know ya’ll don’t like FOX and I talk them with a handful of salt, but they have been broadcasting most of the stuff going on. It really should be on all TV like the Space ships were. It’s historical.
