You did a racism. You did an imperialism. You did a nationalism. You did a xenophobia. You did a white fragility. You did a weak apology. You did no growth. This makes it abundantly clear you don't understand the intersectional nature of the multiplicity of your offenses

So it's trying to make sense of something that doesn't. The original sentence was probably AI generated, or if not, whoever wrote this must've been going through some stuff.
If this still doesn't make sense to you, maybe watch the movie "Platoon"
The content of his studies was mostly false, but the concept of it was influential and groundbreaking. He initiated the process of moving the questions of the mind from the field of philosophy to the field of science and medicine... But he didn't achieve that process himself. His psychoanalysis wasn't science yet, but philosophy on its way to become science.
We only know about when humans mastered fire or started using metal. But we know the exact date when the first powered flight took place. What are some really early "first ____" we know the date of for sure?
It's relatively easy for recent things related to big technological advances (first phone call, first man in space...); but it's nearly impossible for really old thing, because while you can find out one really old thing existed at one time, it's always merely the oldest known occurence. An earlier one might've not left surviving traces, or it's traces might've not been found yet...
Mostly cheese. Many different types of cheese. I know there are some cheep cheeses around, but I find the difference between a good and a mediocre cheese is such that I chose to compromise on the quantity rather than on the quality...
I would not recommend Arch for beginners. I like it, but it's best for someone a bit familiar with Linux already. Yeah, the install is pretty simple now that Archinstall is a thing, but it's not the method recommended in the Arch Wiki and if there's something wrong with your install and you complain on the Arch Forum they might not be super helpful.
More generally, the mood on the Arch forum and Arch communities at large isn't super beginner friendly, and thay's understandable: In a distro meant to be user friendly and aimed at general user, if the user does what seems natural to them and the system break, the community will feel a responsibility towards them, because the system wasn't stable and user-friendly enough. In a distro primarily aimed at power users and devs, if the user does what seems natural to them and the system breaks, then the user is a fool and should've read the wiki.
Because it is a very fast rolling release, some updates can break stuff. It doesn't happen often, but it can happen at a bad time and be a big problem for someone who doesn't know how to deal with it.
Debian is more stable, and easier if you go with a D.E, but you still have to make several choices during the install, which might be a bit complicated for a beginner who doesn't know what any of these options mean... Tho of course, it's possible to go with all the defaults and it'll be alright.
French (native), English (fluent), Spanish (a bit less than fluent). Started learning Japanese at one point and quit. Can still speak and understand some, but I've given up on learning kanjis. Understand a'd speak some Haitian creole (also less than fluent).
It bugs me when people say "the thing is is that" (if you listen for it, you'll start hearing it... or maybe that's something that people only do in my area.) ("What the thing is is that..." is fine. But "the thing is is that..." bugs me.)...
In English, I hate both "from where" and the rarer "from whence". I first found out about the words "whence", "whither", "thence" and "thither" (respectively meaning "from where, "towards where", "from there" and "towards there") while reading the Lord of the Rings in English. I found these were powerful words that could make many sentences shorter and clearer and that it was a shame they went out of popular use...
But then, I also heard "from whence", which struck me as far worse because it was redundant and stripped the word of its power. I first thought it was a mistake, but after seing it several times I looked up how it was meant to be used to see if I wasn't in the wrong and saw that while it had started as a mistake, it came into use several hundred years ago and was used by many famous classic authors, making it acceptable.
Imo, that's probably what killed these words. I guess it had the merit of being less easily misheard, but when "from whence" and "from where" mean the exact same thing, why bother remembering "whence"?
In my native language, French, I kinda dislike "C'est quoi ?" (Litt. "It's what ?", pronounced [sekwa] meaning "What is it ?).
It's a vernacular expression often found incorrect... But I also kinda understand why it exists. The most correct way to ask "what is it" is "Qu'est-ce ?" ([kɛsə] or [kɛs]). It works well when written, but I guess being too short, it can be easily misheard. For example, "caisse" (a large box) is pronounced the exact same way.
The other alternative, more common in oral speech is "Qu'est-ce que c'est ?" (litt. "What is it that it is ?"). It might seem too long, but it's pronounced [kɛskəse], which has the same number of syllables as "What is it". It is redundant tho, so I understand why "C'est quoi ?", which doesn't sound like anything else, rolls off the tongue and has two syllables is winning over, and will probably be the correct way in the future, but it still kinda sounds wrong to me.
People really think some element born within a star or supernova is the best? Even tho none of them even have a Nirvana song named after them? The best ones are obviously those created either during the primordial nucleosynthesis or by spallation, when atoms are hit by cosmic rays in colder zones.
Sometimes yeah, but other times it's really just one song. For example, I really like the song "Ruler of Everything" by Tally Hall, but when I tried listening to more of their stuff I mostly didn't like it. There are also many intermediate cases. I can confidently say "Eh el Ibara" by Masar is my favorite music ever. As for the album it's from, "El 'Aysh Wel Mehl", it's a solid album, maybe in my top 12. Same for the band in general. The leader/composer Hazem Shaheen might be ranked a bit higher, like maybe my 6th or 7th favorite musician, because I also like some of the other songs he made without this band, like "Horse of Darwish". But there are more instances where I'll want to listen to just my 1 favorite song rather than to my 12th favorite album entirely.
Actually, I'm pretty sure the main character of real life is a girl I know. Unfortunately, revealing infos about her at this point might he harmful to the plot.
I really enjoy masturbating in public. Weather it's in my car while driving or in a parking lot, parks, bathroom, dressing room. Etc. What are women's thoughts on this? If you walked past my car or saw me wherever I was, what would be you're reactions? Would it arouse you? Would you stop and watch/help? Or would it disgust you?
I heard a guy once tried to make his Linux work without compiling Hannah Montana Linux. It was obviously a failure from the start, but the madman raged on. In his hubris, he obstinately weaved lines of code to make something… Anything that would seem to function as an OS, at least from the surface, no matter what cursed and bloated horrors laid beneath.
An insane smile cracked on his face as lightning in the night sky as he’d finally made his monitor display a pop-up window that read “hello world”. Soon he’d ironed out the details of all the other stuff an OS was supposed to do, an released his abomination upon the market… Keeping it closed source so no-one could see what sacrilege he’d done to get there, and also so that he could make a buttload of money.
Thus was born Microsoft Windows.

There’s that, and also their short lifespan (1 to 5 years). And the fact that the mother only cares for their offspring while they’re in eggs.
Forms of transmission of behaviors by imitation or communication mostly emerge in species that care for their young, like birds or mammals, because the young learns from their parents, which complements instinct. It gets stronger when they’re a social species, because they also learn from every other individual. That’s when culture begins to emerge (like how some “accents” or “dialects” can be identified in the songs of birds or whales of a same species). But a specie that isn’t social and doesn’t care for it’s young, whatever an individual learnt in its lifetime dies with it, behaviors can only be transmitted genetically edit: ^inexact,^ ^see^ ^below^ , so they’re slower to evolve.
[EDIT : I looked up some things online to make sure I wasn’t spreading disinformation (should’ve been the other way around, sorry…) and it seems some nuance needs to be added to two things;
Despite being usually asocial and sometimes confrontational, octopuses can occasionally display social behaviors such as signal, so they’re not devoid of inter-individual communication source
They seem to be able to learn from each-other to a certain extent. Source
I still think my point mostly stands, but it’s a bit shakier than I thought.]
I’m working on a some materials for a class wherein I’ll be teaching some young, wide-eyed Windows nerds about Linux and we’re including a section we’re calling “foot guns”. Basically it’s ways you might shoot yourself in the foot while meddling with your newfound Linux powers....
So there’s the time I converted my partition table from MBR to GPT and it corrupted everything on it so I had to reinstall. Took this opportunity to switch from Mint to Arch, something I’d been thinking of doing for a while.
Once on Arch, I had much more opportunities to make epic mistakes: For example not putting enough room on my root partition (home was on a separate one), so after a while I had to reinstall.
Yeah, but “libertarian” is initially a loanword from french “libertaire”, which refers to anarchists and anarcho-communists, the right wing version came later. In the compass format, it refers to both ; and can be read as “anti-state”.
That still fits the definition of “unstable equilibrium”.
“Unstable” means that a slight perturbation can disrupt the system… Basically, if something is moved a little, it’ll keep moving. Suppose it’s held in balance by the repartition of weights. Rotate it by just a few degrees, and suddenly the center of gravity has moved away from the plan containing the axis of the wheel, meaning it now has a momentum and will keep turning, and the pots will likely be smashed.
The wheel can stay still an unlimited amount of time as long as nothing moves it… But anything could give the starting push.
There’s a song by the band Rammstein called Pussy (not Sex as I previously said that was an error) and their clip was to lewd for YouTube so they posted it on Pornhub.
Each time I try AMD graphics, something is fucked for me. Back with fglrx, fglrx just sucked, so I used Nvidia.

In the meantime I had a new work notebook where I...
I still haven’t found the solution, have you had any luck with yours?
I tried switching every UEFI setting that seemed to have something to do with booting or gpus, reinstalled gpu bios, upgrading mobo bios, getting a monitor I could plug without a switch… All to no avail.
Well, I think before upgrading the BIOS, one thing had a slightly different result: Setting the boot mode to UEFI and disabling CSM made it display “no gop (graphic output protocol)” after a few minutes, and it offered to either take me to the uefi settings or loading defaults (which implied going back to CSM), after which it boot this time go back to doing the same thing.
I don’t think I’ve had this error since the mobo bios upgrade, but still no display unless I reboot, unless the computer had been turned in until recently. I’m kinda out of ideas…
