Are you talking about the claim that he endangered CIA agents? That was just some bullshit they cooked up to get him on, and I don't think anybody even claimed that somebody actually died.
Imagine thinking exposing the CIA should be a crime, because the poor small beans CIA agents need protection. Who wouldn't want to protect imperial blackmailers, hit men, weapons smugglers and death squad commanders?
You are the traitor for siding with the oppressor.
So that’s just a clearly factually inaccurate statement right there, makes me question the validity of the entire thing if they can’t get something that simple correct.
It is not. The article is from 2013. Back then, that linked worked and shows exactly what the article is saying: he's the only staff member listed. That was 8 years after the founding btw.
And since the guy is clearly rich and has lots of political connections, you'd figure he'd have sued EF by now if there was anything incorrect in that article.
Oh you launched into a whole defense of working with the far-right. Figures.
Believe it or not, people on the “far right” can care about human rights too
Yeah they care about human rights when they can weaponize them to pressure or topple governments that resist exploitation. Which is what the Oslo Freedom Forum is all about.
Hmm… I wonder if living under an autocrat might have made him care about human rights and free expression.
That or he's pissed that they took his father's Telco empire, and now he wants to topple the Venezuelan government and get his "birthright" back. We may never know.
Also you avoided the whole part of in the article about what he was up to before the HRF. That guy was clearly an activist conservative bigot at the very least, and so he naturally evolved into a Mr. Human Rights Guy. He doesn't just take money from far-right dipshits, he himself is a reactionary.
Who is Halvorssen? He is best known as the founder and CEO of the Human Rights Foundation, where he is listed as the lone staff member. The Oslo Freedom Forum is his brainchild, a confab he has sought to brand as “a Davos for human rights.”
Founder and only staff member is this son of a Venezuelan oligarch. Sounds like a completely normal human rights group.
The Electronic Intifada has obtained Internal Revenue Service (IRS) 990 forms filed by the Human Rights Foundation that include previously undisclosed information about its donors.
The forms show that the Human Rights Foundation received approximately $600,000 in donations from the Donors Capital Fund from 2007 through 2011. Based in Northern Virginia, Donors Capital Fund is essentially a slush fund for the cadre of rightist donors who bankroll the conservative movement.
Don't disclose all their big donors. Kinda sus.
“Since the fund handles money from multiple donors and donors names aren’t disclosed, contributions made through the Donors Capital Fund are difficult to trace,” the Center for American Progress noted in its 2011 landmark report “Fear, Inc.” “Potential donors are required to open a minimum $1 million account to utilize the fund’s services.”
In 2009, Donors Capital Fund channeled $60 million to various conservative causes and from 2009 through 2011 a whopping $21,318,600 “to groups promoting Islamophobia,” according to the Center for American Progress.
Peter Thiel is also one of the big donors.
But a look at the early stages of Halvorssen’s career, which he spent as a conservative operative combating gay rights initiatives, feminism and multiculturalism on US college campuses, suggests otherwise.
That checks out.
The guy that organizes this is a rich Venezuelan gusano, and he gets donations from the far-right. This is not about "Challenging Power" or "Freedom", but to further US imperialism.
Die liberalen Gründungsväter der USA waren Sklavenhalter, Völkermörder und Eroberer, und deren Vorstellung von Demokratie war eine Klassenherrschaft, wo nur weiße Männer mit Grundbesitz wählen durften. (Liberale Demokratie ist sowieso immer die Herrschaft der besitzenden Klasse.) Das waren trotzdem Liberale.
Das ist dieser no true scotsman Fehlschluss. Das ist eine korrekte Verwendung des Wortes liberal. Dich stört vermutlich daran, dass du dich irgendwie als liberal identifizierst, aber nicht mit Milei in eine Topf geworfen werden willst. Dann benutze halt "sozialliberal", oder "sozialdemokratisch" oder so, wenn du dich abgrenzen willst, anstatt dich darüber zu beschweren, wenn Worte nach Definition korrekt benutzt werden.
Wieso der ist doch liberal? Das ist eine Art von Liberalismus. Liberalismus ist kein nettes Gefühl, das ist die Ideologie des Kapitalismus.
Privateigentum, Markt, Wettbewerb, persönliche Freiheit (wenn man sich es leisten kann) und damit auch die Freiheit andere Auszubeuten und die Not anderer Auszunutzen war von Anfang an Teil (ich würde sagen: Kern) der liberalen Ideologie. Für all das steht der Milei. Wieso willst du dem absprechen, aus welcher Tradition der offensichtlich kommt?
Die Hayek-Gesellschaft hat dem gerade einen Preis gegeben, viel liberaler wird's nicht. Steht ja sogar in Link:
Mit dem Friedrich-August-von-Hayek-Preis ehrt die Gesellschaft herausragende Beiträge zur Förderung der Prinzipien des Liberalismus und der freien Marktwirtschaft. Der Preis genießt in akademischen und liberalen Kreisen hohes Ansehen und gilt als bedeutende Auszeichnung auf dem Gebiet der Wirtschaftswissenschaften und der Sozialphilosophie.
Very weird, I can think of some things I might check:
It is possible that you have files on disk that don't have a filename anymore. This can happen when a file gets deleted while it is still opened by some process. Only the filename is gone then, but the file still exist until that process gets killed. If this were the problem, it would go away if you rebooted, since that kills all processes.
Maybe it is file system corruption. Try running fsck.
Maybe the files are impossible to see for baobab. Like if you had gigs of stuff under (say) /home on you root fs, then mount another partition as /home over that, those files would be hidden behind the mount point. Try booting into a live usb and checking your disk usage from there, when nothing is mounted except root.
If you have lots and lots of tiny files, that can in theory use up a lot more disk space than the combined size of the files would, because on a lot file systems, small files always use up some minimum amount of space, and each file also has some metadata. This would show up as some discrepancy between du and df output. For me, df --inodes / shows ~300000 used, or about 10% of total. Each file, directory, symlink etc. should require one inode, I think.
I have never heard of baobab, maybe that program is buggy or has some caveats. Does du -shx / give the same results?
Like this?
#!/bin/sh
set -eu
name_from_desc() {
LANG=C pactl list sinks \
| awk 'BEGIN {FS=": "} /Name:/ {name=$2} /Description:/ {print name, ":", $2}' \
| while IFS=' : ' read name desc; do
if [ "$desc" = "$1" ]; then echo "$name"; fi
done
}
id_from_name() {
pw-cli i "$1" | awk '/id:/ {print $2}'
}
ret=$(LANG=C pactl list sinks | awk 'BEGIN {FS=": "} /Description:/ {print $2}' | tofi)
wpctl set-default $(id_from_name $(name_from_desc "$ret"))
I don't get how that case statement of yours is even supposed to work. I'm pretty sure that's just a syntax error. I guess you want to map from description to name? But that's not remotely what that does.
I'm still skeptical. At the time of the original Pentium (the last 586 from Intel, the fastest of which was 300 MHz), the usual amount of RAM was something like 16 or 32 MB. A 586 with 1 GB of RAM is extremely weird and probably impossible unless it's some sort of high-end server. This does not check out.
Oh and DDR is also from around the time of the Pentium 4. I don't think there exists a machine that has both DDR and an original Pentium (aka 586). Again, this does not check out and is probably impossible.
There could be another reason it won't boot.
Are you sure it's not a 686? Because apparently the Pentium Pro from 1995 is already a 686, by 2001 the Pentium 4 was already out.
Isn't it TSMC that's building a factory in Arizona?
