Enver Hoxha: There is nothing unknown about what socialism is, what it represents and what it brings about, how it is achieved and how socialist society is built. A theory and practice of scientific socialism exists. Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin teach us this theory. But the basic principles and the universal laws of socialism remain unshakeable and are essential for all countries. wordsmith.social/protestation/…


Quotes

  • Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

I can setup the project to build using Akku-R7RS:

But then how should I build each of the .sld files to binary using the Chez compiler?

Decades of seeing how literally every Western White nation goes down the exact same Path.

Nationalism is ridiculed and attempts are made to make it banned. Non whites are pouring in and taking over. Whites are constantly targeted, raped, murdered, robbed in their own nations while at the same time being brainwashed with white guilt.

So is this a coincidence or is it due to someone coordinating White extinction?

Italics have taken over my fonts!


I am running Bazzite and downloaded the google fonts from github and extracted all the .ttf files into a folder. I then drag and dropped them into the font manager. All installed correctly.

When I rebooted, I notice that some of my apps now show the fonts as italics. Firefox and Thunderbird show italics, certain websites (like reddit and homarr) all show in italics no matter what type of browser I use.

I rebuilt my font cache multiple times to troubleshoot but no dice. I tried changing the sytem font to something else, no dice. Wondering where to go from here? I am running KDE.

in reply to nmtake

So from this thread it looks like I need to disable this font. I'm not able to as it gives me errors :/

I'm going to restart and see if I still get these errors.

Edit: still have the errors. Nuking this install because I’ve exhausted all troubleshooting. Moved all files to new user and redownloaded and configured my apps. Gives me an excuse to start fresh because the home folder was getting cluttered.

In 1990 around 80% of Germans felt they could express their opinions freely; now it is less than half. The authorities have been accused of trying to silence pro-Palestinian voices on the grounds of antisemitism. More controversially, the hard-right Alternative for Germany party has been branded as “extremist” by intelligence services; many politicians want to see it banned outright. Romania annulled its presidential election in December over concerns that the hard-right candidate had won only with the help of dodgy social media, in breach of electoral laws.

It is not just politicians who are protected from harassment. “Hate-speech” rules also shield minorities—whether gays or Muslims, migrants or the disabled—from others’ opinions. What Americans dismiss as tasteless, European prosecutors sometimes treat as criminal. Most notably, the right to offend religious groups is no longer assured everywhere. Once upon a time Denmark lived with the political consequences of racist agitators burning the Koran (which sparked terrorism threats). Since 2023 it has deemed “improper treatment of a religious text” to be a criminal offence. To liberal critics, that seems a lot like an unwelcome return to once-abolished blasphemy laws.

@FlickA handful of people max 100 most over 60 years plus, a tired police car at the end of the demo. It's no problem to express your opinion in Germany, you'll just be ridiculed and mocked by your fellow human beings.
And that when the warmongering of political figures in government reaches grotesque proportions.
It's a tragedy.

Enver Hoxha: In genuine socialist society, in which the common property is managed by the state of the dictatorship of the proletariat, with the broad, organised and effective participation of the working class and the other working masses, according to the principle of democratic centralism, and in which great differences in the distribution of the social product, which lead to the creation of privileged strata, are not permitted, the worker is not a wage-slave and is not exploited. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

How to deploy Docker images to Raspberry Pi w/o using a image registry


Hello, fellow Linux users!

My question is in the titel: What is a good approach to deploy docker images on a Raspberry Pi and run them?

To give you more context: The Raspberry Pi runs already an Apache server for letsencrypt and as a reverse proxy, and my home grown server should be deployed in a docker image.

To my understanding, one way to achieve this would be to push all sources over to the Raspberry Pi, build the docker image on the Raspberry Pi, give the docker image a 'latest' tag and use Systemd with Docker or Podman to execute the image.

My questions:

  • Has anyone here had a similar problem but used a different approach to achieve this?
  • Has anyone here automated this whole pipeline that in a perfect world, I just push updated sources to the Raspberry Pi, the new docker image gets build and Docker/Podman automatically pick up the new image?
  • I would also be happy to be pointed at any available resources (websites/books) which explain how to do this.

At the moment I am using Raspbian 12 with a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W and the whole setup works with home grown servers which are simply deployed as binaries and executed via systemd. My Docker knowledge is mostly from a developer perspective, so I know nearly nothing about deploying Docker on a production machine. (Which means, if there is a super obvious way to do this I might not even be aware this way exists.)
