I actually find Rust pretty OK. The only things that I don't like about Rust is its quirky syntax. And its primitive implementation of OOP. And its compiler. And cargo. And the ecosystem...

OK well maybe I don't find Rust actually OK. Why did we have to invent a whole new language if we could improve standards and compilers for existing languages?

I thought Umatrix was unmaintained?

Anyway, I used to use it till a few years ago. It's a really powerful extension, but it breaks some sites with the default settings and it can get tedious reenabling scripts one by one to find the bare working minimum. I have since switched to uBlock of the same developer and it seems to me an adequate compromise between privacy, better performance and working sites.

Unfortunately the modern web has turned into tihs so you can't even browse without an ad blocker anymore.

People who make fun of LLMs most often do get LLMs and try to point out how they tend to spew out factually incorrect information, which is a good thing since many many people out there do not, in fact, "get" LLMs (most are not even acquainted with the acronym, referring to the catch-all term "AI" instead) and there is no better way to make a precaution about the inaccuracy of output produced by LLMs –however realistic it might sound– than to point it out with examples with ridiculously wrong answers to simple questions.

The problem is not voting itself. It is the bourgeois "democracy" framework it is often implemented in, which provides safeguards against change.

This needs to be a real command.

Regardless of political subtext, I found Master and Margarita a fun read. Nevertheless, Heart of a Dog of the same author was not pleasant to read.

Soviet literature was not worse than the works of pre-Revolution authors and ranged across many genres, from socialistic realism works to fantasy (Soviet sci-fi was great) and also many children books that are loved till this day. Unfortunately, same with other kinds of works, Soviet literature is disregarded by the West, as are many works that don't conform to the Western values.

Be careful, comrade, Discord has been known to ban accounts when they suspected third-party clients.

Synthesizer. I can barely play some soviet songs but I give my best for Gershon Kingsley's Popcorn. I really like that tune :)

I used to sing when young but I'm not sure my voice is as good now. That doesn't mean I don't do it, from time to time, when I'm all alone though.

This day 206 years ago comrade Karl Marx was born. 🫡

Nah, they -along with most Western media who copy their propaganda- will just blabber about the Big and Scary Inevitable Impending Collapse of the Chinese Economy™ yet again.
