He is an ambiguous person. He certainly did a lot of good things, but there were mistakes and even from our point of view, quite cruel decisions. It is difficult to assess why he made certain decisions. There is a lot of unconfirmed information and ambiguous accusations around him, although, of course, there are bad decisions, maybe we don’t know all the information, or maybe he was wrong. It was a difficult time back then. According to some reports, at the end of his life, even Lenin treated him ambiguously and was afraid of the concentration of power in one hand and even wrote a letter to the congress, but some doubt this, so it may not be true. To truly understand this, you need to be a historian and read a lot of original documents by yourself. But I don’t think that we should consider him only a complete villain, as he is often exposed.

Linux. The Power of the Community.

I didn’t come up with it and the picture is not mine. I just found it on the internet earlier.

You can fix it, really. :)

I consider Extended Wigners Friend Problem Experiment to be quite fascinating. This experiment has already been performed, but I expect its results to be fully understood by the masses. And I am not proffesional physicist and want to understand it better too by myself. a-quantum-experiment-suggests-theres-no-such-thing-as-objective-reality The results of this experiment call into question one or more assumptions about the existence of objective reality, freedom of choice, or locality. All three cannot exist together. But personally, I think that the second and third points have been checked a lot of times, so no matter how improbable it may seem, the first point is the most likely. But what it really means remains to be understood.

I use lxqt mostly beacause it’s simple and moderately lightweight.

It’s unusual, but it was a little-known Russian movie from which I didn’t expect much, but in the end I liked it. It was Lord of the Wind (2023). Although I usually don’t like modern movies lately. It is about Fyodor Konyukhov is a Russian survivalist, voyager, aerial and marine explorer and his round-the-world balloon flight. Unfortunately, I don’t know if it is available in English.

I think sugar by itself is not so bad. The fact it is in amost all types of prepared foods from the store is really bad. But I’m not a specialist.

Snap. :)

In general, I noticed that a significant degradation of search engines began to occur after the appearance of chatGPT, perhaps this is somehow related. Before that, degradation was slower. Maybe in Google for example they were a little afraid that ChatGPT would learn from their search engines and replace them…

It’s called Paging. But an application programmer doesn’t really need to know how it works in precise.

Hard to imagine that they so low skilled. If FSB really want to install a backdoor, it will be so low-level that more of a hard work will be required to detect it.

Yes, value can be expressed not only in monetary terms. If people find it very valuable, they should pay more attention to privacy. However, you can protect yourself from cryptolockers by remote backups as one of the ways.

Then all available and legitimate methods of ensuring confidentiality are adequate and justified. But sometimes at work you may need to use programs that you don’t really like etc. And without work, you will have nothing to eat. Maybe a little exaggerated.

Speaking specifically about me, I try to use free and open source software to the maximum extent possible. I only run non-free games sometimes. And sometimes some propriatary software for/at work.

If you are going to protect something, then you should not spend more on protection than the protected property is worth… It’s always about balance. :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLfFWXUNJ_I It’s more of one playlist than a channel about quantum mechanics on Russian, but as I see it has English subtitles. A fairly clear explanation with a small amount of simple mathematics, probably the minimum that is possible. It helps to understand at least a little such a complex and illogical science for the average layman.

Even if that were the case, this is not a reason to destroy millions of people more. People’s lives matter the most. Russia definitely does not kill anyone unarmed and does not torture in these territories. And Russia has stated many times that it does not want to seize the whole of Ukraine.

It has sufficient list of programs: browsers (I use firefox), ebook readers, fractal (matrix), telegram, maps, that works good enough on mobile at least for my daily use.

I use postmarketos with phosh. It’s kind of viable, but it has some infrequent bugs. For example sometimes, quite rarely, the call menu may freeze after the call and not respond to touches until the reboot. The camera doesn’t work at all. But there are positive aspects, an ordinary Linux terminal and the usual convenient console programs. :)
