Two questions: do you want to be able to play the guitar?

If yes:

Can you turn the guitar sideways and take a picture so we can see the space between the strings and the fret board?

Do that and I’ll send you a link to a tab that is super easy but still a recognizable song. Then you can build from there.

I think if you focus on your friends, neighbours, hobbies, etc. You can find peace within the enshittification. But I think it’s a bad idea to ignore the shit. Get mad about it. You should be mad. It’s bullshit. But what then? We can wallow in the shit by ourselves, or we can find groups of people with similar interests. Who knows what happens after.

And by similar interests I mean this as an example: Are you pissed about genocide? Good! You should be! Others are too. Find them, and do something about it. You’ll build relationships that will at least help carry you through the shit.

A fact is something that happens. If you read “theory” as “model” it makes more sense.

So evolution occurs. Our model of it is crap. Gravity exists. But Newtons model of gravity only works for human things approximately human size and speed. When it gets too big and fast we need Einstein’s model (general relativity) to explain things, if it gets too small we need quantum gravity.

Or put differently: it is a fact that I wrote these words. If you tried to describe my words with a theory/model, and it predicted which words I would write next, then you have a decent theory/model.

I hope this helps

According to this community absolutely yes, but no in reality.

Just as an aside to add a fact to your statement: Marxism is a process that has been used to critique capitalism, as anyone who is intellectually honest should do. For example: if someone says "socialism doesn’t work " someone who is a Marxist might ask “okay, historically is this true?” And they would see that several socialist experiments have struggled. Then, as anyone who cares to understand would ask, they might say “okay then what happened to cause this?”. And in many cases you will see that Western Imperialism has sought to destroy these movements through various methods including assassinations, and funding groups like the Mujahideen.

Damn. Well, then someone left might say 'well that’s Capitalisms fault". At which point it might be justified to call them a tankie. Someone else might conclude" hmm, Capitalist states do not want socialist states to succeed, therefore a socialist state should expect aggressive action from capitalist states. Thus, ONE of the problems with past socialist experiments has been their inability to withstand these external threats." Someone who doesn’t critique anything might say “SEE COMMUNISM NEVER WORKS!”

TLDR; One of the key aspects of Marxism/Socialism/Communism is the criticism of past, current, and future political economic systems (capitalism, feudalism, socialism etc). Anyone who ignores this hasn’t read much, and should consider whether what they are consuming is state propaganda.

Thanks for this reply, definitely giving me things to think about that I never would have thought to ask.

I would be concerned with both sensitive data leaving, and an infection being brought onto it during a file transfer.

Again, I appreciate you, and this all makes a lot of sense.

No it’s bunch berry because it’s cuter

Tell me they’re going to meet me at like 5pm, and never show.

No, because in a proper democracy any representative could be removed from office at anytime solely by their constituents voting to remove them. No I don’t mean during a predetermined election cycle. I mean at any time.

That way each community can decide if someone should be out of office, and it transfers power back into the hands of the people rather than their representatives.

I already have idle animations like video games. See Karlach
