  • not wack-a-mole since the other western european countries have rejected spain’s request to arrest & render puigdemont to spanish authorities.

    and i wish i could also see it as hilarious. to me it means that spain is closer to a banana republic than a liberal democracy since they’re clamping down on a popular movement with an iron fist and spending lots of money on successful propaganda that minimizes that popularity as 50/50 at best.









  • I’ve personally had a mixed experience with Cubans. Some are great nurses, doctors and hard workers. Many are scammers or thieves looking for a handout

    same here; the 2 most influential people besides my parents were cubanos (we were mexicans) and every single cubano i’ve met since then were scammers as well; i guess, at some point, living in cuba got really difficult because of those sanctions so they adapted and i think having to suffer under biden et al’s anti-gay, pro-inescapable student loan debt, anti-feminist, and pro-segregationists views have helped me understand why people would change in that way.




  • watch out for your battery.

    i don’t do proxmox; but i do a lot of virtualization through kvm/qemu on my own laptop and the battery can take a beating if you don’t mitigate it somehow. i’ve had this laptop less than 6 months and the battery condition is already at 67%.

    i’m lucky in that i got this laptop from a linux company so i can can order replacement batteries; but most people don’t (willingly) have this luxury anymore.
