I'm not a fan of women in the workforce. Let them assist their husbands and male relatives after child-rearing, or start their own businesses, but leave the workforce to men.
Women's entry into the workforce has been nothing but disastrous on multiple fronts. It's helped destroy the nuclear family, increased divorce rates, doubled the tax base, deflated wages, created dysfunctional children and helped kill communities.
@houseoftolstoy I would say it is broken families as well and a system that empowers all their poor decisions. FAR too many positive incentives introduced exasturbate it.
@Scubbie Play some Kenshi to warm up to the idea.
@basedbagel Off grid will likely not be capable for me fully, nor will second citizenship. Doesn't mean I'm not working towards one on the side, but yeah Trump fuckin is real suckin. Now in a couple years I may stand well to be out. Only wish I came across people capable of teaching me well sooner than last year. But that's life.
@FinalDresdonation @UncleIroh @dander
So to run your vm I recommend virtual box.
Then get linux mint from here:https://linuxmint.com/download.php
Then I would just take a free course on youtube for the basics and you're off to the races!
@UncleIroh @basedbagel @dander Sounds good. I'm definitely more savvy and willing to learn than most people. It's just a time thing since most of my things are on backburner for immediate priorities. Definitely gonna make it pet project or have some weekend fun with it if I ever stop working.
@basedbagel Their system will invariably have some use to us for a time longer. I'd like to get a second citizenship, but don't have the cash or time for it from the seems of it unfortunately.
@basedbagel @UncleIroh @dander I've heard a bit about Mint. What would be a good VM to start with? I know there're a few different ones on the 'market'
@basedbagel I personally don't like it, but more so the mass migration/dual citizen stand point. Otherwise I'm of the same attitude mostly.
@UncleIroh @basedbagel @dander Thinking about switching an old laptop to it. Any good places to start. I've sort of looked into all this, but W11 I never wsnt to use. Also would there be issues with a W11 Preinstall being removed for linux entirely considering newer hardware can be fucky.
@basedbagel I don't desire to date outside of my race. Maybe Asisn girls, but a strong maybe.
@basedbagel People do trend to prefer their own at an aggregate level. Mostly. Outside of that if people are determined enough they'll still do it.
Also a thanks to all the older guys that steered me from shitty paths because of the system. Can' express it enough the trainwrecks I've avoided because of you type of guys.
Got contacted by an Ex today. Just gives me more vindication that what I've been doing with my own thing has allowed me to be healthier, enabled more freedom, and an actual chance at not fully being a debt slave the rest of my life. I just sort of stumbled into all this thought train, but every so often I get vindication. Still wild that some people try to seek me out at their 'lows'. Child Like Behavior.
@Tfmonkey Sounds about right. If only they knew/would do what it actually takes to change things for the better. But bad soil ruins plants.
