I am suddenly reminded of an ad for a restaurant in some local city that was something along the lines of: "come sample the taste of the USSR which, unlike their inspirations, actually exist!" Communism is when no food, huh?
don't know for sure, was born after it's collapse so never had a chance to visit. Never been to China, DPRK, Laos, Vietnam or Cuba either because travelling is expensive (thanks capitalism!), but doubt that the people there would bother with shit like that tbh
Hopefully, as US influence wanes, relations between the DPRK and ROK can move in a positive direction. Korea is one nation with two governments. One people. President Lee Jae-Myung seems to be interested in boosting ties with the DPRK and PRC, and being less reliant on the US and Japan, so this genuinely seems like a positive shift after President Yoon's impeachment.
I hope to one day see the resurgance of the PRK (1945-1946), one unified country over all of Korea.
Not to be confused with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea The People's Republic of Korea (PRK; Korean: 조선인민공화국, Chosŏn Inmin Konghwaguk) was a short-lived...
I saw a french documentary where they sent this guy to Italy so he could learn how to make the good pizza and brought experts in to check.
It looked like some good ass Italian pizza. Too bad the frenchies were too busy pretending to care about peasants in the countryside to actually be normal and enjoy it. The one woman whose father was born the north was the most normal one, she actually enjoyed her time being there and didn't pretend to wax poetic about poverty.
It is really funny that liberals expect me to believe their genuine concern for the peasant class of Korea when their entire lives are subsidized by the Global South via imperialism.

Yes but the Nazis want to colonize a part of the concentration camp for Lebensraum so they're going to concentrate the people in it in a smaller concentration camp
arguablly the Jews in Germany in ww2 were not proactively murdering innocent women and children via terrorism before the war, so I think that's one difference.
but it doesn't make what Israel is doing now any less Nazi-like.

I thought you people constantly yap about not liking echo chambers. But when you have rare opportunity to read some of the news from other side, which is banned in your oh so free speech countries, you are shitting and crying yourself (btw OP have some empty accounts following him and downvoting everything). Turns out, you do love echo chambers, but only those that don't expose you to uncomfortable truth that opinions conflicting with yours do exist.
This post is heavily downvoted because it's posted on .ml . You might want to try pulling your head out of your ass, because .ml is 100% an echo chamber.
Lemmy.ml is more broadly federated than sh.itjust.works, its users get exposed to more broad viewpoints and a more complete vision of the broader Lemmy. Its admins and a large portion of moderators and users may be Marxists, but it's less of an echo chamber than instances that align with western consensus and ban dissent against that consensus.
Most users on Lemmy.ml can't escape the liberal viewpoint even if they tried as hard as they could, while most users on the more liberal instances can comfortably live their lives without ever engaging with Marxism.
I also have no idea why you expect this article to be downvoted because it's on Lemmy.ml, genuinely.
People will defederate from Lemmy.ml because someone posted a news article going over oreshnik? I think if people want to genuinely understand the millitary balance of power in the modern era, a firm understanding of missile production and technology is a key aspect of that. Oreshnik, as the article suggests, blurs the line between ballistic missiles and tactical (not strategic) nukes, without going nuclear, which is why it's significant. Other countries with competent missile programs likely have similar technologies, but we haven't really seen many revealed to the public like oreshnik has been.
Probably down voted because there is a pattern of Russian state media (look at source) and officials overstating capabilities for domestic and international audiences, sometimes masking technical failures or limited deployment with grandiose announcements.
This can be seen more definively in Ukraine. Had Russia actually had the weapons and technology they claimed then the Ukraine war would have actually been three days and not on going 2+ years later.
A unusual attack by bees in the French town of Aurillac has left 24 people injured, including three who were in critical condition but have since improved, according to local authorities.
Passersby were stung over a period of about 30 minutes on Sunday morning, according to the prefecture of Cantal, in south-central France. Firefighters and medical teams treated the victims, while police set up a security perimeter until the bees stopped their attack.
The three people in critical condition were evacuated to a local hospital. Pierre Mathonier, the mayor of Aurillac, told BFM TV on Monday that their condition had improved.
Donald Trump will send foreign leaders more letters notifying them of new tariffs in the days to come, said Karoline Leavitt.
“There will be additional letters in the coming days,” the White House press secretary said, in addition to the 12 he plans to send today and the two already made public, which were to South Korea and Japan’s leaders,
As for why Trump decided to start with the two Asian allies, Leavitt said:
It’s the president’s prerogative and those are the countries he chose.
July 7 (Reuters) - A proposal seen by Reuters and bearing the name of a controversial U.S.-backed aid group described a plan to build large-scale camps called “Humanitarian Transit Areas” inside - and possibly outside - Gaza to house the Palestinian population, outlining a vision of "replacing Hamas' control over the population in Gaza."
The $2 billion plan, created sometime after February 11 and carrying the name of the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, or GHF, was submitted to the Trump administration, according to two sources, one of whom said it was recently discussed in the White House.
Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis claimed responsibility on Monday for an attack that damaged a commercial vessel in the Red Sea and forced its crew to abandon ship.
The Houthis "targeted the Magic Seas ship... using two unmanned boats, five ballistic and cruise missiles, and three drones" on Sunday, military spokesman Yahya Saree said in a video statement.
He added that the ship was targeted for violating their ban on navigation to "occupied Palestine's ports."
A bitter standoff between Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and the Armenian Apostolic Church has seen mass arrests, allegations of a coup plot, and an extraordinary offer by Armenia's leader to reveal his private parts to prove he is a Christian.
Earlier this week, Pashinyan told his 1.1 million followers on Facebook he was prepared to expose himself to the head of the Armenian Church and his spokesman, to prove they were wrong that he had been circumcised.
The GNOME 49 Alpha '49.alpha' release was just announced as the first formal test release in the road to the GNOME 49 desktop release due out in September.
I have RSI, and I use talon voice to control my computer.
Because Wayland doesn't, and probably won't support accessibility software like talon voice, in time, as x11 is shut down, I'll have to move to Mac or Windows. I'm devastated.
Talon voice is what allows me to continue working.
I'm literally going to have to move back to the dark side in time, due to the end of X11, and Wayland's lack of support for accessibility.
Sorry to hear this; why are so many voice-control tools for Linux so dependent on X11? Is there any glimmer of hope that an alternate Wayland-compatible tool is going to come along in the next few years?
The Wayland security model is far more restrictive. Accessibility tools need to screen capture, create input events on your behalf, etc. Such things aren't possible under Wayland (yet?).
This is the one gigantic, glaring problem with Wayland. “The most secure software is the software you can’t use” is not a philosophy I support. Accessibility should always be a first class citizen for mission critical components like window managers.
I'll do what I can. However, x11 will definitely die in the upcoming years. Development is apparently only maintenance now and basic improvements. The writing is on the wall, as Wayland just doesn't support what the accessibility tools require.
I still use X because at least last time I tried (admittedly over a year ago) some of my apps didn't work right on Wayland (KLayout, if I remember correctly).
Keep coming back to Wayland. I've been using Linux as my main desktop OS since 2022, and at first, I encountered many issues with Wayland (KDE). However, I kept coming back and testing Wayland as the bugs were fixed. Now, Wayland is great! It feels like a true modern operating system — much better than Windows.
One of the ironies with System76 is that they are taking so long to release their Wayland-only desktop that they are becoming one of the last bastions of Xorg.
KDE user here, I still use X11 to play old Minecraft versions. LWJGL2 uses xrandr to read (and sometimes modify? wtf) display configurations on Linux, and the last few times I've tried it on Wayland it kept screwing the whole desktop up.
Slightly concerned about remote desktopping though. What do I replace xrdp with?
Xrdp works on Wayland, you can keep using it if you like. There's also Gnome's built-in Gnome Remote Desktop as well as KDE's Krdp, both are also Wayland compatible (though I get the feeling Krdp is still in its early stages).
I used Ubuntu 24.10. on new Ubuntu certified Intel Thinkpad and exeperienced system hangs every few weeks. The only solution was to reboot. Frustrating to say the least. On that system also webcam didn't work so maybe it was kernel fault somehow but still very disappointing given the "certified" status.
1: Open files. You can now use ctrl shift n to make a new folder.
2: Open an application. Click save as.. "files" opens. Now you can not use ctrl shift n. I just tested it again. I am also on gnome 48. This is an old an known limitation.
I'm in the process of getting a new printer and since I recently (December 2024) switched to Linux it would be nice if it would be Linux compatible. So far I've decided on the Canon PIXMA G550 printer but I can't find anything about it's compatibility so I figured I would just ask here in the hopes someone might have the same printer or knows someone who has the same printer and can tell me if this printer works with Linux. If all else fails I could still use the printer with my tablet or phone using Canons app but using it with my desktop would be much more comfortable.
I think network printer made by big manufacturer recent years should be fine with IPP driverless. They found Printer Working Group of IEEE, this organization maintains IPP standard and IPP Everywhere™ Certification. AirPrint can be treated as Apple version of IPP Everywhere, the difference between them is AirPrint requires Apple Raster but IPP Everywhere requires PWG Raster (and JPEG JFIF file format if color printer).
Ah, so they are actually differences between IPP Everywhere and AirPrint (apart from AirPrint including the whole autodiscovery stuff)? Good to know. The latter is usually more prominently advertised though which is why that’s the one I mentioned.
But yeah, it should be very common for these to be supported with anything remotely recent.
IPP Everywhere also include full autodiscovery stuff (mDNS and DNS-SD, of course, Apple call this combination as Bonjour). So I said raster is the only difference.
Raster is unimportant in Linux situation because CUPS support both PWG Raster (It's actually a subset of original CUPS Raster) and Apple Raster. Whichever one your device supports, CUPS will work fine.
When you say proprietary drivers, I assume that means they are only available for x86_64 platform... leaving ARM64/aarch64 devices, like Pi's and such, out of luck?
Something I've experienced with similar printer drivers. Hence the ask.

I've currently been messing around trying to make the Switch 2 Pro Controller work on Linux using the raw HID commands from this website, to potentially build into a driver as a bit of a project to get better at C. However, seemingly nothing I use can send any commands properly, or at least in a way that makes the controller work. I've tried both echo, sending bytes to the /dev/hidraw6 device (that device at least on my system, may vary on others), as well as hidapitester (a wrapper for hidapi). I know the device works, as a WebUSB tool that uses the same commands makes the controller work on this system. Is anyone more familiar with this, and can point me in the right direction? I'm on Fedora Linux 42 if that info helps.

Hi all, I have tried everything, and now I am coming here for help. Hopefully someone can tell me what's happening here. So, I have this older pc that I have converted into a steam console, first with Bazzite and now with Chimera OS. Both work very nicely, but the one issue that persisted on both distros is that when I put the pc to sleep from game mode (press xbox button>power>sleep) then wake it up, the screen is not receiving a signal, it not even a black screen, just no signal. I would have to force reboot it to be able to get in. Nothing works. I can't even get into a tty screen or do anything. It is connected to a samsung tv 65mu8000 via HDMI cable. I have UHD color input enabled for that input, just to give more details.
I have tried disabling the wake up animation like some folks suggested and that didn't do anything. I have tried disabling the display core like some other searches suggested by putting amdgpu.dc=0 in modprob.d in its own file. I have tried blocking the intel iGPU, even though this CPU doesn't have one. Nothing works. It has an intel core i7 5930k and an AMD RX 6600. I would appreciate any help or suggestions Thank you
I've had the similar problems with bazzite in desktop mode coming back from sleep or screen off, first with Nvidia, then solved by switching to an AMD graphics card, but now it happens there too. I have two workarounds.
1) Try Ctrl+Alt+F1and Ctrl+Alt+F3. You should be able to switch to console then back to desktop/login screen.
2) In KDE Plasma, there's a way to map wake screen to a keyboard button. That worked for me until I reinstalled the OS and never bothered.
I think this is a Plasma or SSDM issue but idk how to report it properly.
It would allow SSH if the desktop is locked, they're separate. If you can get in via SSH then you can poke around logs like dmesg and see what's up. There will probably be some messages to give you something more specific to search with.
You think it's the screen/hdmi at fault, but it might not be. I've had the problem with two laptops in the past (the bug was with all distros I tried), and in one case it was a BIOS that Linux didn't like, and the second one was the internal wifi that its linux driver was buggy. For the first laptop there was nothing to be done, so I disabled sleep completely in the bios, while for the second one, I disabled the wifi modules in the kernel's blacklist, and then used a usb wifi that I knew it worked better. Both cases were appearing as a dead screen, but it wasn't the screen/hdmi/gfx card to blame. In yet another case, with a thinkpad laptop, the wake up was working, but it would wake up 30 seconds later than anticipated. In that case, it was the fact that its thunderbolt was dead (hardware had gone bad), and only when I disabled it in the bios completely the laptop would wake up correctly and fast.
In all those cases, I had to look at the kernel logs to see what was the issue. There were traces of the problem of which hardware exactly was creating the problem. It might look like a screen/hdmi problem, but most of the times, it's not.
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi recently told EU diplomat Kaja Kallas that Beijing did not want to see Russia lose in Ukraine, not because it directly supports the conflict, but because it feared a U.S. strategic realignment against China. If Russia were to falter, Washington could shift its full focus to the Indo-Pacific. While some EU officials were surprised by Wang’s frankness, the comment underscores a widely held belief in Beijing—that a Russian defeat would upend the delicate balancing act China has maintained amid great power rivalry.
Wang further rejected accusations that China was materially aiding Russia’s war effort, claiming that if Beijing were truly providing such support, the conflict would have ended long ago. These remarks, while diplomatically calibrated, reinforce the view that China and Russia perceive their geopolitical fates as closely intertwined.
Ukrainian nationalist accounts have gone into a tailspin about this. I almost feel sorry for you people. We did try to warn you!
In a world bristling with geopolitical flashpoints and shifting alliances, few relationships are more consequential than that of Russia and China. Yet,
I don’t think it will in the short term since Russia needs allies and the West has made it clear they will never be allies with Russia. Russia doesn’t gain anything by splitting with China now or in the short term.
Much longer term it was always bound to happen. Russia only gets critical support around here because it’s going against the West in this specific conflict. It’s still a capitalist country with reactionary views on a lot of things.
That’s going to eventually put it at odds with China and other AES countries unless there’s a change in power in Russia.
Russia is even more fucked up than just a capitalist country. Like the infrastructure itself there are some institutions which retain a lot of influence from the USSR, Kremlin + central bank nonwithstanding, which is why I recommend Samir Amin's book abt the transition to and out of the Soviet mode of production. The MoD has had a major role in the economic planning of the country and it's not academically bought-out by the west. Its influence grows the longer the conflict in the Ukraine and soon the arctic progresses
no respect to be lost; i know little more than your average american liberal and i'm genuinely interested in reading it.
i've run into people on lemmy who know considerably more about dialectical materialism than i do and i posted that comment in the hopes that one of them will see it and respond with a knowledge drop that helps dispels that gloomy perspective you detected.
Well I'll try to summarize I guess reasons to be hopeful about development in Asia and the difference between Russia and India or even Brazil but I'm doing a dumbass thing where I use my phone in the middle of the night instead of going back to bed so get Russia and the Long Transition from Capitalism to Socialism and/or Maldevelopment by Samir Amin off of Anna's Archive and I will brb
Although Russia is still a bit of a neoliberal hellhole, it has a lot of institutions, trade relations, and physical infrastructure which are holdovers from the USSR, and its MoD's separate academic tradition & role in economic decisions + renationalized control of nuclear industry, oil etc sets it apart from more compliant states. At this point Russia has far more economic links to Asia than the western world. Of course if they'd been given the opportunity United Russia gooners would have gone for a subimperialist relationship with US + Europe and not bothered with all of this developmentalism stuff, but it's really just too large and independent for that to be permitted, making Russia the primary example of an entity the west cannot lay siege to. Lot of Russian poli sci and foreign relations teach people to make decisions based on a kind of mnemonic policy sentimentalism backed by unanalytical historical (including Solzhenitsyn-tier sources so) analogies, they've got annoying war on terror Israel policy. They have copied a lot of China's foreign relations because it produces political stability + reduces foreign diplomatic pressure (independent allies can't be easily coerced), healthy trade relationships, stable skilled workforces to build industrial capacity that can travel abroad for training, low cost of labor through infrastructure rather than exploitation, creating military self-sufficiency + providing training & technology transfers rather than overburdening yourself through suppling military aid to an isolated country. They don't have contrary foreign policy building isolated blocs that they attempt to build up into semi-self-sufficient partners, there is a mutual interest in constructing international institutions + law (which mostly de facto dont exist, coalition of the willing rules based yadda yadda) and opposing unilateral sanctions. Instead of picking different countries in the periphery to sponsor they have a mutual interest in Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, Sahel states, etc are able to develop. KPRF is a lame socdem party but they pressured Kremlin for intervention to stop the aggression against DPR and LPR, and have been successful in ways that the western union/antiwar protest left has not. Like Latam socdems there is more potential for something there because it's not organizing labor aristocrats & humanities washouts, it's in the global semiperiphery
I'm not ragging on people, many developmental, human, and theoretical advancements were all made possible by the USSR, it's just important to see why it was in a position to be disassembled & how some of its institutions persisted, and how it was unable to uproot imperialism, why there was a doctrinal split with China (which made mistakes too). So with all that out of the way, China and Russia now have no reason to go through a diplomatic or military confrontation, and since they're so economically + militarily interdependent, they have a zillion ways to quash anything before it comes to blows. Even simply postponing the signing of a new bilateral cooperation agreement or not incentivizing tourism would be a stage of escalation in the event of a dispute. Most likely we'll see more pressure against Russia from across the arctic circle & from eastern Euros + Scandinavians, not Russia working against China and Southeast Asian countries. Russians - even the more 4th positionist/neolib-nationalist-style Russians - are genuine about economic crosslinking, problem is their western-academia-brain-poisoned leadership has been slow to recognize how essential it is + how little western countries will compromise on their mission to undevelop & privatize the natural resources of every global south country & keep their trade links linear + how much allies like Iran & central Asia states need support in order to make international law real for the first time
China and Russia have completely different foreign policy than Cold War China and the USSR, there's been no sign of friction over China maintaining attitude of neutrality re: Ukraine, they are increasingly collaborating on infrastructure + involved in each other's supply chains. There's plenty of other stuff to worry about. I just don't see any series of events leading to tensions
problem is their western-academia-brain-poisoned leadership has been slow to recognize how essential it is + how little western countries will compromise on their mission to undevelop & privatize the natural resources of every global south country & keep their trade links linear
this is the reason why i would expect another sino-soviet split.
the american version of this is manifested by trump's ascendency enabled in large part by gen-z's noted willingness to "checkout out" of the system, but too many are still inculcated by american style politics and propaganda to keep the system going anyways; hence aesthetics-only displays like the no kings marches.
ie: plenty of people know better, but the ones who do are not in control.
Sure ya I think someone compared Russia's lingering War on Terror Israel policy to "playing with matches while the west douses you in gasoline" or something to that effect. Look if there is somehow success in [Trump impression] "un-uniting them" then I argue the resulting split will not be Sino-Soviet ☝️🤓
i don't think there's much trump can do force a split between them and the point of my example is to make it clear that the leadership is too heavily inculcated in their world views to benefit russia's position in the future.
a split will be fostered from within and by a decrepit leadership that still has its eyes firmly glued to the west.
Oh also major sleepy error I made there is using developmentalism as an antonym to subimperialism but if you pretend I just said "mutual development" it's fine i guess
Zionist enemy media reported that sirens sounded in several settlements and occupied cities within historic Palestine following the detection of two missiles launched from Yemen.

This week you guys thought they were lying when they reiterated words from Zelensky
Yeah, I think reconfiguring the bots with a new narrative is long overdue tbh...
It's one thing to question how objective are Russian sources when talking about ukraine, but those bots post the same "this is Russian propaganda" / "this is unreliable source" narrative even under articles from western medias, and it even gets posted under articles from ukrainian sources, where the next recommended article is usually something like "illegally, unprovokedly and full-scale invading orcs just massacred triillions of innocent ukrainian women and children" which is just peak comedy :/
At least add filtering on domains before commenting or something, it's not that hard XD
Andrew is such a crybaby. Whether it's India, immigration issues, or Europe setting itself up to be destroyed, he reliably spreads hysteria on his set of pet issues. Andy boy, if the UK doesn't get nuked in WW3, there's little chance of it facing comeuppance instead of peacefully Eurasianizing! Trust the plan!
The possible deployment of nuclear-capable F-35As there, which could be equipped with US air-to-ground nukes since the UK no longer has its own, would give London a leading role in managing the joint Arctic-Baltic front against Russia that’s expected…
