“Why was 6 scared of 7? Because 7 8 9.”

(that works better spoken, than in text. … 7 ate 9.)

Reminds a little of Socrates, when asked what his punishment should be.

… After reading a few comments… a figure creeps into my mind from memory…

8 million.

That’s how many children we’re estimated to lose to the traffickers ((or whoever else) for who knows what horrors), per year, globally.

… And I don’t think either of these, the politicians or the capitalists, are going to do even one honest thing to help solve this.

… And yet at their disposal, is the means.

… The stench of these psychopaths using this crime [as vast as it is], as a mere tool to carry on with all their other crimes, is sickening. … How many of the 8 million, are used, not just to be abused, raped, eaten, but as tools of blackmail to usurp all these pseudo-democracies at these single points of failure, “our” “representatives”, as they doubtless do throughout industry and elsewhere too. No strongman saviour to save us, nor our children.

We have to face the horror and come up with better/real remedies to this unacceptable monstrous situation.

[That 8 million figure, I heard elaborated upon, how it was derived, how it was extrapolated, estimated based on the known missing children and so on, from an "ex-"cia guy on some podcast interview… which I failed to find in a timely manner to add as reference here.]

Hey, maybe that ruthless capitalist puppet cares.

Maybe that’s his dry logic way to keep the pedos away from real children.

Maybe it’s not because … y’know, … how it looks on the face of it.

… Or maybe it’s all another “protect the children” ploy to terrorise us into giving more power to big baron daddy [corpo-]gov.

But naw… surely not all that sardonic satirical cynicism.

Maybe they care. … /s .

^Ace. Though works better s/from/to/, since “I keep spiders in the basement to keep all the boys away.”

I interpreted that as likely meaning a corrupt cop who’d been caught committing crimes.

Not that the ambiguity of that caught my attention more than the boy.

I hate what they’re doing.

A-ha! I knew I was suave.

Fuckit, lets all go install templeOS.

Alas, but, tragedy of commons and game theory [(and FOMO)] have us racing to the bottom (~ along with a dozen other things impeding an effective collective bargaining, or any of the other things that would otherwise allow us to have nice things).

Is there a queue?

That was a slow burner for my dyslexia.

I presume that’s just for his own “use”.

What the heck am I then?

A container slut.

???

But… there are zero containers on any of my systems.

Wow. 3 downvotes. … I wonder why. Authoritarians passing by, not like being called out?

Oh great. Now I want to lay out all my own recipes like this.

… I have too many projects already. XD

Actually, looking at that list again, I see I’ve neglected upgrading on that computer for longer than I realised… chimaera as testing? *checks site*, yeah that’s “Chimaera 4.0 has moved to oldoldstable status.”. That’s like 4 versions old. XD

Interesting graphs.

Alas, the metric’s a mite confounded by the different ways distros split up packages. So it skews e.g. the Debians up, and the voidlinuxen down.

… I’m guessing that still wouldn’t be enough to put a dent in AUR and nixpkg 's towering package counts though.

Phew! For a split second I misred that as chmod o+w.
