  • I’m a KDE girl but this is pretty cool! I heard of Niri before but never seen much of it outside r/unixporn.

    I’m not gonna lie, I do have the urge to try out some form of tiling WM, but every time I tried tiling capabilities, I have found it confusing and had to keep excluding apps from floating here and there. If anyone has any tips for this, I’m willing to test it on KDE so I can finally get what the appeal is.

    Also I love how these tiling WM desktops looks like, but I find it daunting to do this level of customization that so many do, I wish I had the patience. Maybe I’ll try zirconium on a VM to see how it is.

    Oh and I love the trans Z in fastfetch cat-trans



  • I’ll be voting for Samara Martins from UP. I have issues with UP, from their amateurism when it comes to elections, to their very sectarian position online, the countless issues I’ve seen their members talking about online and their line on China where they call China imperialist somehow, but she looks like the best actual radical leftist candidate there. Another valid one I think is Hertz Dias from PSTU, I haven’t searched much about him yet and I don’t like that PSTU is a Trot organization, but it’s not exactly the time to care about that and neither of them is gonna be elected anyway, the first turn is a vote for ideological affirmation, and showing that there’s is a demand for more radical change is paramount as propaganda for us.

    For everything else I’m voting for everyone I can from the Bancada da Esquerda Radical, but in my state they haven’t announced people for all the positions yet.



  • The only game I remember being scared by was the ending of the first Harry Potter, I don’t know why but fighting that professor with Voldemort on the back of his head always gave me the creeps. As a kid I was easily scared so I guess it’s not that big of a stretch.

    But one thing that never made sense is that some games made me physically ill, I still don’t know why, it wasn’t motion sickness or anything of that, I just felt extremely weird and uncomfortable while playing, the two I remember the most was a Shrek game and a NBA 2K game I think, I don’t remember if both were on the 360, but just super weird experience.

    EDIT: Actually just remembered another one I was scared by. I had a CD with a bunch of game demos and one of them I think was Time Commando. I think there was a tiger that tries to kill you at some point in that demo and I just shat my pants any time it appeared on screen, I literally could not do anything from that point forward because of how scared I was of that tiger.




  • you’ll probably agree with me that this doesn’t even matter to the article at all?

    Yeah I agree with that, that’s something that the author of the article does need to take into consideration. It’s not some minor thing that can be an afterthought.

    But there is also a massive disconnect between the natural resources actually available to Brazil and Brazilians’ sense of ‘destiny’. Brazilians believe that Brazil, if well administered, would necessarily be a wealthy and powerful country. That has never been the case.

    Because the issue is not it being well administered, but rather of having an actual industrial and national policy for development. We weren’t “well administered” under the brutal military dictatorship, yet we had a national industry.

    In reality, Brazil spent the second industrial revolution with poor demographics, poor geographic distribution and no real mineral coal reserves with which to make steel. It spent the third industrial revolution looking for oil everywhere and failing to make real headways until the 21st century because the continental shelf of Brazil has nothing like the american Permian. Petrobrás was more of a refining company than an actual oil company for most of its history for a reason. Brazil was a historically agricultural country that wasn’t self sufficient in actual food stuffs due to climate and the disparate nature of its islands of natural fertility. That Brazil is even a net food exporter today is a matter of state policy and subsidies, not, as nationalist romanticism might term it, ‘destiny’.

    Okay so this is where a huge gap in my knowledge comes in so I can’t properly comment on any of that. My only issue here is that you are not presenting the reason for each of these things, making it seem like the issue is with Brazil itself. I could very well be misinterpreting your point here, so please call me out on that if that’s the case. It’s important to understand these things historically, but if those things are not issues anymore, because like you said, there was a great deal of effort, labor and state policy, than there’s is no excuse to keep us deindustrialized and subservient to the imperial core if not by an imposed policy by said core.

    The same industrial impetus that created Brazilian agribusiness is capable of creating the future of Brazilian industry. But neither of them rely entirely on natural resources available

    I’m not trying to say that we need to rely on any natural resources being readily available, just that if needed it could be not that huge of an issue for us and that the lack of such resources cannot be used as an excuse to not be industrialized. We can be a properly industrialized and developed country with our own strengths in the global stage.


  • The brazilian military has enough ammunition for about 24 hours of small arms warfare.

    Yeah this is a huge problem, we cannot afford open confrontation with the empire. In fact, it’s election year and there is a genuine fear of the US interfering in one way or another. Not only that but there is also the fact that our military is very far-right and so anyone that is a leftist is worried of what would happen if the US decides to invades us.

    I understand not liking Lula, I don’t like him, his government has been more and more liberal over time. I’m not vote for him in the first turn (sorry I forgot how that is called in english), only on the second one when it’s him against Flávio Bolsonaro because I sure as hell am not voting for that fascist and imperialist dog.

    Brazil has comically fewer resources to work with than its territorial extent suggests

    I could be wrong because there are gaps in my knowledge, but as far as I’ve seen talked about, the issue is not the amount of natural resources we have, but rather that we are a deindustrialized country that is subservient to foreign capital. We have the natural resources and capacity to have our own industry and to be self-reliable and self-sustainable even, the issue is the lack of a national project that is truly sovereign.

    Which is not to say we couldn’t and shouldn’t be doing more to help Cuba, we can and should. That being said MST has sent 7.6 tons of medication to Cuba which should be more than enough to make the current government ashamed, yet here we are.

    When we needed medics Cuba didn’t bat an eye and helped us as best as they could, and now we aren’t doing nearly enough to help them out in their time of need.


  • Cool, I saw Vaati’s video on it and it looked really fun to me.

    I hope the launch version has training modes where we can learn the fights against the tougher mobs in a low stakes environment

    From never did this before I don’t think, unless there’s something like that in Nightreign because I haven’t played that, so I wouldn’t keep my hopes up for that.

    If you’re interested in it after playing the network test, soulsborne games are great. If you want the one which is gonna have the closest feel to Duskbloods, Elden Ring is what you want. Or if the aesthetic of Duskbloods is more of your style, there’s Bloodborne, you can even emulate it pretty well right now. But you could probably start in any From game and it would be good to be honest.


  • Enjoy the Elden Ring DLC comrade, I absolutely loved playing it as difficult and as big as it was.

    I haven’t been playing much this week, my head has been kinda of scrambly after coming out here in the funny hexagonal bear site and more recently to a friend (it went very well, yay!!). But I have played a bit of Isaac with a friend on his second save, I played a bit of Hades and did a little bit of training with Marisa on SF6, I trained a pretty cool 7k dmg combo off of a Punish Counter on the corner with lvl 3 and full drive, but haven’t played since then and that was in the middle of the week.
