Seems to be a Qanon guy. Or he was for a time. I’ve not paid attention to him in years.
He also always came off as a grifter in search of a con, so the Qanon shit might have been part of that, but who can ever tell with those people.
Brother is the go to because their stuff is basic and functional.
All the other companies have “innovated” to the point where their shit is unusable for daily use.
Here’s someone using the term in 2011.

And I’m sure there are plenty of older examples.
But some others are here from 2015

All that from a simple google search.
I recently switched my laptop to Garuda, it’s an Arch based gaming distro. It seems to mostly work right out of the box, but I did have to tweak a few steam games to force them to use my dedicated graphics.
I guess I could go in and force steam itself to use the graphics card via env… But I only have a handful of large games at the moment. It’s just as easy to set the requirement per game right now.
Yeah, that’s not happening. I only whitelist sites I trust, and that little pop-up doesn’t engender trust.
You would think that, but no. It’s specifically the Red Cross organization. Which is an international organization.
It can also be used by militaries and such for Geneva Convention complaint medical use, such as search and rescue operations or medical centers and such.
That’s it. Those are the only legally allowed uses. And even Geneva Convention complaint medical use is often run by the international organization.
While that acronym is true, the British don’t actually operate that many BIRDs, they mostly manufacture them and export to other countries.
I hear that almost 2/3rds of British manufacturing is devoted to BIRDs that are earmarked for foreign government use.
I think I still have disks for Slackware 11 and 13 floating around somewhere. I even ran 13 for almost 2 years as a daily driver… And then got pissed off trying to update packages.
I’ll admit that these days I just run Ubuntu, because it’s easy, and it works without hours of googling how to fix some random dependency that I can’t actually find for some reason.
Pissing off the bigots and the lgbt+ community all in one go. AB InBev… they own most of the mass market beer brands worldwide.
I was once banned from Reddit for correctly pointing out that the medically approved cure for Nazism is one fist, applied directly to the face repeatedly until the afflicted individual stops being a Nazi.
The medical professional applying this cure can substitute any handy blunt object for their first if so desired.
There are some rules. Like, don’t take a cell phone to a protest.
More like guidelines really. People break these rules all the time, but it’s good to know in case shit goes down.
Tankies are the ones who think you need a strong state (read authoritarian) to enforce communism.
They support the use of literal tanks to crush any rebellion or uprising against the authoritarian communist state, and then deny that it happened at all.
The term was coined when the soviets crushed the Hungarian rebellion of 1956 (local communists didn’t want to be under soviet rule, soviets sent in tanks) The original tankies supported the soviets
Then there’s Tiananmen Square, the CCP crushed protesters with tanks until fire hoses could wash the sludge down into the sewers, Tankies claim it was justified, when they acknowledge that it happened at all.
Tankies deny the ongoing genocide of the Uyghurs. Or claim that china is only detaining “rebels”.
And finally, tankies tend to be pro-Russia, even though it stopped pretending to be communist in the 90s. The tankies tend to be anti-Ukraine in this conflict.
Another aspect is the 100% denial of any western media or released intelligence, because it’s all evil capitalist propaganda.
Basically these types of Tankies have picked up a history book, seen the overwhelming evil that the western powers have propagated and decided that anyone who stands against the western powers must be good. Which is stupid as fuck.
The world isn’t black and white, it’s not good vs evil, it’s varying shades of greed and evil vs other shades of greed and evil. Tankies tend to not understand this simple truth.
You should also take the post with a grain of salt, In addition to his shitty politics, Lunduke doesn’t have the best reputation for truthfulness in his tech reporting.
He’s fudged numbers before, and often makes clickbait titles that just are not supported by his blog posts or videos.
The shitty politics were not the only reason I started ignoring his dumb ass.
