The logo for Odin has a Nordic rune in it which is popular to white supremacists because the Nazis also co-opted them as symbols. They are not by nature about supremacy, they are an old alphabet.

4·2 months agoYeah I had a hard time with it because the Indian characters were not even two dimensional. I remember thinking was it to reinforce the self absorption of the main characters? Any potential character growth after the key scene in the middle of the movie was squandered

191·5 months agoThere’s a set of questions an author named Byron Katie wrote about for managing limiting beliefs. First you have to isolate the belief that’s causing you pain. Then you ask the following:
1 - Is this belief true?
2 - Can I absolutely know this belief is true?
If you are still saying yes to these you’re not ready for 3 and 4.
3 - How do you feel when you believe this? Be sure to go into this really well. I find the more you put into this step the better the results at the last question. So where in your body does the feeling live? What temperature is it? How intense is it out of 10? Is it sharp or dull? Is it dry or wet? Does it change is it constant? Maybe even what color is it? You want to really witness and give credence to this feeling here.
And finally
4 - Who would you be or what would you be doing if you didn’t have this belief?
I can guess what answers you’d give here but you know so I don’t want to muddy that for you.

Lol you haven’t met consultants
31·5 months agoI once installed Ubuntu for an 80 year old Finnish woman who escaped the Nazis as a child running across a frozen lake. This was a decade ago. She took to it like a duck to water and said it was great because it made sense, she could easily install anything and it didn’t crash. Give your dad the chance at least.

1·5 months agoOvid was a Roman not a Greek.
The story doesn’t define him as asexual. It does say he scorned and mocked people who then cursed him:
‘So may he himself love, and so may he fail to command what he loves!’

Also according to this article at Cornell, Ovid was the sole poet of the story and there aren’t any earlier versions, so it is likely both of our interpretations are askew.

While what you say might have grains of truth in it, it’s likely that the story was originally a warning about eating a poisonous plant that resembles an onion more than an attack on asexuals. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissus_(plant)
1·6 months agoI’m not saying they can’t overcome it or that it is universal. It’s just a theory I have based on early observations.
Now, it does make sense that a GUI only person would have to play catch up compared to a person the same age who has a decade of exposure to using a terminal if they’re going to code in a terminal. It’s just different mindsets and workflows.
At my work the younger coders who say they prefer GUI coding (and are terminal avoidant) seem to have more trouble and their debugging methods have many more steps and take longer. Many times they run everything in Jupyter notebooks and avoid running the processes in terminal at all. This is a problem if they put off end to end testing until the very last moment instead of testing incrementally.
Also, for context, this is to create production level Python code which is to be deployed on a terminal only server.
I’d want to make a measurable experiment with a larger sample size to confirm this theory though, as the systems are complex enough there are many possible reasons for these patterns. I’m just very aware these days of that moment of hesitance, like a deer in headlights, when some people have to open the terminal to solve their problem.
I have a theory that the crowd of people who learned computers or iPads etc from GUIs only, they have a harder time with terminal. Those who used DOS a lot find it to be a happy space.
Most of this sub sounds like how old people explain tech problems badly. It’s clear they can’t be bothered to search and find out what is going on.
Linux will let you break it. It isn’t meant for people who can’t be bothered with learning or consequences but insist on being superuser.
