I do know it's unpopular in the community, but I will caveat that I have been using claude code to help set up the environment. Installing flatpaks and the immutable distro would have taken me much longer without it. Ironic that I moved away from windows because of copilot just to use another agent

@grubb.wtf Been using the Bazzite distribution for the last month. It's my primary driver for games and sunshine streaming. I imagine I'll spend 90% of my time on it and 10% on the occasional kernel level anti-cheat or fresh friendslop. I'm very impressed Arc Raiders just works. This is the year!

I hope people retreat from places that are subjected to these coordinated attacks because it'll just become useless noise. Maybe this is an opportunity for something else, but I hate that the something else is also barreling toward a verified identity internet.

I like places like blusky where I can follow journalists and get direct sources. I don't know if we're all prepared for how effective coordinated campaigns by anonymous accounts is going to be.

2026 really seems to be the year of the dead internet. It could just be my personal experience on reddit, but what was once a place of discussion and disagreement in the comments is now flooded with consistent coordinated messages from newish accounts.

I'm not sure I've seen folks talk about this, but how likely is it that there are other bottlenecks in the supply chain that will result in the cost of ram returning to relatively normal prices? Surely ram won't be the bottleneck from here on out and at some point supply will meet the demands.

I’m not defeatist by any means and I think jamelle has done a good job abating my own concerns. Still, I wouldn’t put it past this admin to cook up something I wouldn’t expect

what reform has come about given the above two scenarios? we still are sending folks to random countries and there's still increased enforcement in MN. at this moment, I don't know how much americans would actually push back against election interference, but that's my own cynicism

I think this was the key part that was missing for me. Interference would have to happen where marginal results happen which is very hard (maybe impossible) to target strategically.

05.02.2026 13:46 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

that's about as far as my imagination goes when devising a way this admin could interfere, but I can't rule out some other unknown shenanigans.

seems like an unreasonable bar. people weren't able to predict how the admin sent people to cecot. people weren't able to predict ice and cbp have murdered people.

there's 20k ice officers with more coming. one could imagine a scenario where they racially target key voting centers.

Yeah fair enough, the scale of our elections is hard to comprehend. Stating it so plainly was helpful, thank you

If it’s marginal enough it won’t get challenged.

Maybe I’m confused, but the issue isn’t shutting down the election, it’s the president sending a few ice members to key voting centers to tip the scales in his favor. Surely they had enough force to repress enough votes in key districts to hold the house and senate. Right?
