Fan of breaking echo chambers by being devils advocate. Other than that, centrist. As in in USA I’d be considered left.

  • Eh. Nothin’ to lose.

    What are men’s problems? What problem do we suffer that also doesn’t affect women?

    Women have strong support movement on their side. It’s not something they gain only through their sex, but rather something they gain I think mostly due to the same gender stereotypes that also act against them.

    Same stereotypes which isolate men and make them suffer in silence and alone, making showing any sign of weakness a fatal mistake.

    Isn’t that what you are doing to feminist right now? Isn’t that what the article is talking about with the man-o-sphere?

    I honestly don’t see your point here - what commenter above you said is right, and sure as hell they didn’t mention that it doesn’t work the other way around.

    Lol, like we men are immune from corporations promoting masculinity? Old spice, axe body spray, every sports based commercial… What gender do you think the majority of the CEO for these companies are?

    What are men problems, huh? Like, dunno, expectation to always go after that false masculinity. Also, as far as I understand it, what you quoted above this part is just continuation of the point above it, nothing to add here.

    Capitalism isn’t a fucking gender problem…it is the thing making everyone’s lives miserable. If we wanted to examine gender in capitalism we can take a look at which of the genders gains more from the system. What percent of the oligarchs are men, how many billionaires are men, how many senators and judges that keep the system going… it’s mostly dudes.

    Yeah, but affects genders differently. Men are eaten, ground to a paste and then spat out. Women are bellitled and their work is seen as substandard. One side doesn’t make the other any less, both are problems and commenter above you didn’t say men have it worse, just that they suffer from it.

    And the rich switch genders or something? Women can’t be part of the struggle against capitalism? What is wrong with you guys, do you not have mothers, sisters, women in your lives who are just friends?

    What commenter above you is alluding to is the point of the whole post - Men do not get help. We do not have the same societal networks that women have to get together and stand up. And even if women decided to fight for us, it’s for naught until we are able to start getting up by ourselves.

    Young white men are being squeezed out of the ownership class for the first time and it’s because it’s the only demographic that hasn’t already been squeezed at this late stage of capitalism. The problem isn’t with women, it is the economic system that dangles a carrot for some, so they’ll wield the stick against others…and we’re all out of carrots. Welcome to the party, everyone else has been getting the stick the whole fucking time.

    'kay. What’s with that obsession with women? Commenter above you mentioned once that feminism can use men to portray them as evil, which they do because guess who makes them suffer most, and yet due to that you immediately went and threw everything they said as if they did nothing else but accuse women of men’s suffering.

    All in all, as far as I understand the comment above you, all boils down to:

    • Women gain on current situation so it makes sense they don’t act.
    • Corporations gain on current situation so it makes sense they don’t act.
    • Rich gain, and even if not then loose nothing on current situation so it makes sense they don’t act.

    Which are answers to question at the beggining:

    Is there even an incentive for solving men’s problems?

    IMO, the incentive is for us to move our asses, take notes from women and build our own support networks. But that is actually fought against by conservatists/right-wingers, because lonely and lost men make cheap and easily influenced canon fodder.







  • First of all, admittedly, watched half of it. But also I don’t see the point. Yeah, they have problems coming from their structure, but these seem kinda miniscule compared to any other game company. I mean come on, people looking up to more experienced colleagues for advice was shown there as a problem “because they have more to say”. Or the bias in hiring…that even ex employees seem to understand that it simply happened due to their requirements about experience and such. The video was informative, but…pretty much shortly after mentioning what they aim for when hiring, one could easily foresee most of consequences.

    Although damn, the pressure with these must feel enormous. And also…they really seem to say a lot of it up front so where’s problem?

    Had a course on linux, can move somewhat fludily in console…well, could, prolly forgot a lot. Dunno about architecture or everything else linux-wise, but that’s something I believe I can pick up during usage. Also thanks for the tip of separating OS drive and Media drive. Seems logical but uh, things happen.

    Only thing that bothers me is I have older hardware and this coupled with communities here being overall cautious about Arch distros makes me kinda cautious about Cachy. But it seems like a good choice for my use-case. But I also have everything important backed up anyway so even if I install Cachy and it doesn’t work for me, I will be able to switch efortlessly.

    So, my CPU is supported, but my GPU is actually out of spec for recommended. GTX 750. Would you say to try it anyway or is it better to go Nobara due to that?


  • That’s why I am very wary of CachyOS. Been on lemmy for some time now and amount of people saying to not touch Arch…heh.

    But Nobara felt safe and right for my use case. Kinda sad it isn’t so.

    I am trying to install headless debian on old laptop for hosting right now and…I mean I tried to go with gui and laptop had so muc h lag it wasn’t even funny. But again, me being lazy gets in the way. And me losing my only pendrive too.
