Trump wants them to stop fighting and allow the US to start digging for Ukrainian minerals. The Russians keep winning in clear defiance of this goal.

Americans don’t know that there’s a world outside of the US. They genuinely believe that the world will cease to function without them.

In regards to one of his slaves who refused to work, and was whipped for it:

“Your treatment of Charlotte was very proper—and if she, or any other—of the Servants will not do their duty by fair means—or are impertinent, correction (as the only alternative) must be administered.”

– George Washington, slave owner and racist.

That was the line that irritated me the most too. Imagine travelling halfway around the world to kill people who don’t share your values. Assholes.

Is “The Hill” going to be labelled as a Russian asset now? The article does indeed contain a shocking amount of truth, and completely contradicts the western narrative for the last 3 years.

I’m not watching a 20 minute YouTube video. But I did a quick search, and I’m guessing it’s about Box64, which does static recompilation. I’m still going to say that it’s not going to be perfect or even good enough in many cases (and their website indicates as much). You can’t always directly translate what happens on one CPU to another. Neon/SSE for example. You can do some translation, but some things will need emulating in software, and that’s going to be slow. Even memory access is different. I’m sure any programmer who’s tried writing a lockless queue is going to know that what works on x86 probably doesn’t work on ARM without a lot of futzing with memory barriers and atomic flags. It’s hard. And it’s hard because in order to be fast, it has to be the right code for the job. If you just slap a memory barrier after every instruction, it’ll run correctly, but too slow to matter.

This is why emulators exist, and continue to exist.

It’s working fine here on Firefox mobile.

I’m a bit out of the loop in the emulation scene. But the last time I was really involved, dynarec proved trickier than expected. I have my doubts that it’s that it’s working well enough to recompile an entire game without a whole lot of hand holding.

One day I really hope to make your dream a reality. There’s just never enough time in a day.

Fair enough. I know enough of the history to recognise that the details were a bit off. But it was close enough to the truth I didn’t think it was worth quibbling about.

I lost family to the American Holocaust.

Yes, but the software has to be compiled for your architecture, or you have to emulate it. That’s fine for new games that want to market in China, but emulating every other game is going to get old really fast. Hell, I have an x86 Chromebook that I’m strongly considering dual booting Linux.

Still x86.

Nothing in that disclaims the meme. It’s actually worse.

“At the federal level, there really was no reason to pay soldiers bounties for killing Indians. That was their job.”

Yep. But PC video games are all x86. And I do like to escape.

When has the US EVER been a democracy?

At it’s conception through the 19th century, they were exterminating my people, and black people were seen as more useful subhumans, so they were kept alive. Women of course were just there to make babies.

Near the end of the 19th century, black men fought hard, and gained the right to vote for the oppressor of their choice. They were still killed if they dared to do so though.

White women gained the right to choose their oppressor in the early 20th century. In the words of Susan B Anthony:

“I will cut off this right arm of mine before I will ever work or demand the ballot for the Negro and not the woman.”

Today, things haven’t changed much. We have the right to vote now, so long as the police haven’t trumped up an excuse to arrest us. Murdering our women is still rampant. The last election saw the choice between Donald Trump (need I say more?), and a rich black oligarch who campaigned heavily on genocide. Americans like to forget the genocide was the basis for “their country”. We want our land back. We want an end to your “democracy”. It’s nothing but genocide wrapped in lies.

I REALLY hope something comes of this. But at the same time, I’m not sure if I would buy one myself. Compatibility with x86 is massively important to me, and I can’t really divorce myself of it outside of portables. I just have too much investment in legacy software. Mostly video games to be fair. Which might be part of the reason for the push to RISC-V.

The United Fruit Company and East India Company?

You said instead. Instead of what?
