We can look at this from several ways, I like the more societal way of it, instead of "whiteness" being whatever someone wants it to be. Is someone treated in the same way as other people from a certain ethnicity? How people perceive them in everyday life (like going to the supermarket or how a cop will see them)? This is more reasonable to argue, as society is always over whatever bullshit some racist invented. With this we can argue from a sociological standpoint, like colorism, etc.

Did Richard Feynman receive treatment like a brown latino, an indian, an asian, a black person or a white person?

This is intrinsic to the question of racism and whiteness, not some vague "pale skinned" thing, and more in line with academic work, because IT'S MORE MEASURABLE, it's based on real things people endure, and on this sense, the "pale skin" makes a complete difference, from the middle of the pacific to Idk, the moon, not some random thing. If you want, I can recomend some very good books about this topic, because arguing based on definitions that aren't good starting points can't go anywhere, we need to define things not based on some common sense deffinition, but on observable and logically sound things.

Angela Davis (for an anglisized point of view) is a good starting point, because she talks about gender too, it's all related.

Edit: good starting point to understanding race and racism: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/race/

My example included black jewish people (Ethiopian jews are NOT white in any sense of the word) and white jewish people.

There is no definition of “white” that you can guarantee a person will be white simply by looking at their skin color. Skin color can only exclude people from being white.

Exactly.

Jewish people come from people who follow the religion, like ethiopian jews, who are persecuted and castrated in isreal, or arabic jews. There are a lot of different people in the world, being different ethnicities. Some jewesh people are white, some aren't, based on the parents/cultures they are brought in.

There's a clear sense in the general populace that whiteness is better, etc, and this is perpetrated from the eurocentric point of view, made for he whole world to "achieve", even if it's clearly bullshit, like indians (totally not because of the british (/s)) trying literally to wash their colours.

This doesn't even make sense, because we're all homo sapiens sapies, but who cares, some pieces of shit indoctrinated all societies with that crap to make more money (blacks and other ethnicities were seen as better at manual labour and violent, so it would be better to put them to work as slaves, not because of profit, but because of their inhereted bullshit i just invented).

I didn't label european exploration as exploitation, polinesians did it too, like to colombia in the 13th century probably. I have said america to mean the continent, this includes south and central america, as in latin america "america" means the whole stretching land, not north america as people in the US and Canada think. They exploited and stole from us, they exploited us for too long.

Edit: I'm talking about the colonization, exploitation, slavery (taking people from this land and from africa to work on plantations, factories, etc), land stealing, etc, that only comes from literally war. This happened from the Indian continent, to Africa, to here (in Suriname, Guiana, Africa, etc, there is a lot of people from the Indian subcontinent, because they were brought as slaves from the Indian subcontinent).

It was the exploitation of peoples that took them as only visitors, not conquerers at they thought of themselves. As hispaniola shown us and other places too. Might makes the right was justified for them, but not for the exploited.

Edit: whenever people thought of exploiting others and enslaving them, there only comes one time to do so, when overpowering and turmoil take over, as seen in america (the continent), india, africa, etc.

Not one race, nor any race is better, if you believe one race is above others, if you believe skin colour is predictive of anything, you are the inferior person over all others, because you are an idiot for believing bullshit. You're not intelligent enough to get over propaganda.

 

Interesting video of palestine in 1896.

Control.

Cool youtube video describing capitalists controlling clocks to make laborers work for longer hours.

Yeah, minix, etc. I'm drunk, so don't take my comments as anything serious.

Shitty people having power over others under them, even the craziest things happened at that time, like rich people in victorian time paying to get to the poorest regions of london to experience poverty. All thanks to craptalism.

It's all about control, from the RTO mandates to controlling the clock on the city center square. (I'm drunk)

 

So, I work in a medium sized team and earlier in this year, our team helped another that was behind in some tasks that all of us need to complete together.

After this, that team always asks for help from our team for untested things from their side and the worst part is whenever something breaks on their side, it breaks for a lot of people (like us) too, and they break a lot of stuff, simply not testing anything, no unit tests, no integration tests, nothing, they just throw broken shit out of the door.

This happens even to the things we made at their place, something's up with our code? They changed it. It doesn't seem to matter if it's adding 2 lines to a sql query, they added an extra comma and didn't test, they changed the batch processing? Now the process returns a broken json with different fields than the Enum expects. Yeah, they changed the value of the field that was ALREADY working for no reason and didn't test it.

I'm pissed off, told my coworker that it's their problem now, but the problems always come and the boss call us to help. This is very frustrating for us and for other teams too, even today another boss was talking about them breaking things in another system that we and they interact.

Their boss seemed to just want to give work for them, even with these problems coming back. The outsourced people work better than them, but you know, they are outsourced and the not so competent team is in house, so they can do nothing.

What can I do? Just saying no when the problems come? Talking to their boss?

 

The video talks about the history of yaoi and how it evolved, the social relation of men and women in relationships, sexuality, desire, abuse, etc, and how it interacts in worlds where only men exist, from the feminine point of view. This is a literary and sociology analysis of it.

 

Basicamente o título.

O Pix Automático é basicamente um sistema de boletos (é diferente e blablabla, mas é basicamente a mesma coisa para o usuário final, você) completamente em cima do Pix.

Ele funciona assim: você vai no site da empresa de energia da sua região, registra e lê um QR code que envia uma PAIN009 do banco da empresa de energia para o seu banco e você aprova ou não a conta, que pode com um valor fixo ou variável (neste caso variável), que pode ser semanal (por exemplo para serviços domésticos semanais), mensal, trimestral, semestral ou anual, enviando uma PAIN012 de confirmação ao banco da empresa.

No período da conta, você recebe um boleto (PAIN013) para pagar na data acordada, podendo atrasar o pagamento por até 7 dias (por falha ou falta de grana) ou cancelar o boleto (por exemplo em caso de não querer o serviço de limpeza para aquela semana, etc), enviando uma CAMT055.

Assim, o dinheiro sai da sua conta no dia acordado diretamente pelo canal secundário do Pix (PACS008 marcada com pagamento agendado), com taxas bem menores para todos os envolvidos e com feedback instantâneo do pagamento, sem aquele atraso que todos conhecemos.

Caso o valor da conta seja fixo (academia, netflix, etc), a empresa não consegue cobrar aquela taxa de cancelamento, sendo ainda uma vitória pro direito dos consumidores.

É isso, use o Pix Automático e cobre as empresas, prestadores de serviço, etc, sobre o uso dele.

 

Banda muuuito boa, Caveman, Creep on Me, What Wasthe Question são músicas muito boas deles também.

 

Interesting video showing almost no difference in performance between gaming distros and Windows 11 LTSC. What is your opinion on this?

 

It's impossible, i got this instance to just see lemmy from my own instance, but no, it was slow as hell the whole week, i got new pods, put postgres on a different pod, pictrs on another, etc.

But it was slow as hell. I didn't know what it was until a few hours before now. 500 GETs in a MINUTE by ClaudeBot and GPTBot, wth is this? why? I blocked the user agents, etc, using a blocking extension on NGINX and now it works.

WHY? So google can say that you should eat glass?

Life is now hell, if before at least someone could upload a website, now even that is painfull.

Sorry for the rant.
