You are failing to understand my point.

I don’t disagree with the birth of capitalism. Although it is basically a new name for imperialism. It is the obvious effect of the post fudal middle class becoming the leadership post aristocratic rule. But it can also be an idea independent of its birth and leadership.

Where I disagree that anything currently existing can push those processes towards socialism. BRICC members are far from a socialist majority. Most nations in BRICC are equally supporting of the ideas of Capitalism. At least the ideas sold by those that use it for imperialism.

It is entirely possible. (Although far from probable) That BRICCs or a descendent from it. Will lead to the global south rising to take over from the current western default rule.

But for that future to be socialist it will need the leadership of those nations to think on socialist ways. And most simply do not do so ATM. Nor dose any probable event indicate a change in how these nations would run the world economy.

Unfortunately for Socialism to thrive. Yes you need opinions to have a major effect on world politics. Without it socialism as an ideal is impossible.

In theory. And if you look at post war UK. It Def lead to a greater support for socialism, the forming of new party etc. removing our past 2 party system with a different one. The very one that no longer supports socialism.

But socialism cannot and will not grow it of nowhere. The US has never had a large support for it. The UK and much of Europe had people with respect pushing socialism in the 50 to 60. Ex soldiers seeing a whole new way of doing things built the very socialism we understand now.

The US just dose not have anyone effectively making arguments for this. Without such leaders. And honestly we also have non effective left in Europe anymore either.

Add to that. Their is absolutely no evidence of capitalism losing control. It is actually doing very well by it’s own standards. As instead ideas like socialism are losing power while capitalism is effectively moving wealth into the hands of the few and most powerful.

It is only failing by the opinion of those of us that disagree with it… and expecting that to start socialism without some major change. Is just wishful thinking.

Opinion only. But my guess is individualism grew from a increase in cut throat people.

Capitalist billionaires gaining control of world governments. Then using it to move the world to a modern reinteretation of feudalism. Is IMHO the actual cause of the increase.

Yep well considering the US leadership is basically following 1930s Germany as a guide.

The exact reason the ICC was formed. Yeah objections are to be expected.

Added to idea they recognise very simple geometry

The fact they communicated the idea to at least 11 Wales. Then openly demonstrating this fact to humans.

Is way more sci fi plot like. Sounds very like a star trek tng plot idea. Alien sludge creatures trying to prove to another race. That they are more then lighting oil to be killed and sold in barrels.

Or

Hey those killer Wales. They are only giving you fish. So you trust them close to your boats again.

They plan to leap into the small ones and capsize you. Then they will present us with monkey hats.

Yep, My prediction was more the idea of a first try. Cash and run is normally the type of criminal more willing to try with less planning, etc.

To work with machinery needs both the ability to move it in a way cops won’t notice. So take minimal organisation. Cops confronted with an assumed ICE agent taking expensive machinery are much more likely to draw their own gun then accept it’s a ICE agent.

Stuff small enough to fit in a white van like generators or tools, though. Yep, would just look like immigrants are being removed.

Heck, could even kidnap Musk that way and likely get away with it with a little thought.

I am in no way recommending anyone start kidnapping billionaires to help defund trump. (Nudge nudge). Nope you should not do that (very obvious unsubtle wink) .

Im guessing it will be a few months at the most.

Before, some groups uses this to commit/escape from crime.

Likely to be small scale cash attack on some small cash only but very public business. Dressing like this and confusing local police into inaction. While they bully and cause fear. Someone empties the cash and runs.

Heck, it may already be happening.

Only if he has been using it to smash windows.

As far as I can tell. He just uses people who annoy him.

As much as I hate the idea the US is a teacher to anyone. Given it’s own crappy history. Not that any successful nation really has a right to that claim.

Can’t disagree with the sentiments here.

Unfortunatly he sees no comedy in that.

My neighbour nations keep asking to join your defence treaty. How dare you encourage them to want to defend against me.

Parts of my nation left my predecessors. How fucking dare you stop me forcing them back.

You don’t agree. Wow that window looks badly maintained.

Agreed. But that strategy did not start until very recently.

Warnings have been used for 40 plus years alone. With very little effect.

Warning have been on tobacco most of my life. I’m 53 and remember them as a teen ager.

Also remember no one really paying any attention. Banning advertising had the largest effect. As it was clear warning while companies could still advertise made no sense.

Then banning display in stores. Finally banning children born after a set date.

In no way we’re the warning the main cause of the drip in use.

Not to mention.

approved plans for an assault on Iran pending a final decision.

It is not exactly a smoking gun. The US gov has its military advisors formulates plans for every option as a matter of course.

ATM the boat is being rebuilt inside. Replacing everything.

So the system is in bits. Hidden in the engine bay.

I have old pics of the boat before we regilt all the electrics etc. if it’s the shape etc your interested in.

If your a Brit who knows the canals. Think small sprinter but with a flat hull. It’s not actually a springer but same steel standards etc.

Yep.

My guess haveing delt with the process. Moving to a green card process supported by marriage. Meant her student visas no longer applied. Only being married for 1 year. As this is why such claims are temp to begin. Means she may be deported well before her student plans are complete.

Even before the current insanity. Things like that were risky.

Israel likely agrees. Not like that though.

Yep that can work. But ignores all the well documented and supported development community comments I pointed to while also indicating other options exist.

As for.

Turning some switches on and off while monitoring input values doesn’t sound very computationally intensive.

You realise IO wise that describes your keyboard and mouse interaction on the most powerful gaming PCs.

It’s what you do with the results that matters.

GPIO supports a fair bit more then the on and off input and output. It’s slow compared to other systems. But has multiple serial protocols of differing types. Simple GUI displays can also be run via gpio connections. Low Res Lidar devices are available connected via the spi connections with all the data processed on that host PC.

So no gpio use can require all levels of processing power post connection. It is after all designed for experimentation and prototyping.

For my project. You clost to correct. I just use a simple GUI displays with xorg. So a pie 0 is plenty. And way lower power then the other options. It links to a pwm controller to power 2 12v 200w water tank heaters a relay for a 750w AC heater. Bluetooth connection to a BMS and solar MPPT. While operating multiple temp sensors measuring at different levels. And warning of legionaries risk. If the tank has not been over 65c in 14 days (actually 10 days but I’m over careful given the health status of my brother and I).

So much less then the tiny Pie 0 would not be able to cope but mainly due to the need for the vision impaired interface. Speaking functions dose not take much. But doing so without being unusably slow is about the limit of a pie 0.

Worth noting pie 4 and 5 no longer recommend 5w PSU. And tend to fail if anything is drawing on the USB.

Not simple to remove. They can all be taken out.

But the fire risk is a very valid point. All laptops should indicate they should not be left alone when charging. While many do. Setting one up in a unobserved location to run permanently should be batteryless or Lifepo4 adapted. So laptops may not be best suited to this environment. A used thin client or other DC input option may be much easier. Or an old desktop if batts and not wanted.
