Thanks for your story. I’m a misfit nerd also, so it resonates with me.

I’m sure its something we can fix at large scale with government-funded mental health care, social programs, funding for community centers, and integrating mental health and social science studies into education, amongst many possible solutions that would get us to a society where everyone can find somewhere to fit in, and everyone has better options than the snake-oil salesmen when they seek help or are angry at a personal situation.

Unfortunately we presently live in the era of the techofeudalists, and eyeballs on ads and keeping users consuming are pretty much all they care about - not only do they not care if the media they promote and put ads alongside happens to be divisive alt-right hate media, they also benefit from the conservative (anti-regulation, small government, anti-tax) parties being pushed to power by these groups. It’s a frustrating feedback loop that we need to break free of, and governments worldwide seem ill-prepared to broach it.

Ugh. For context, I’m currently trying to steer a younger family member out of the alt-right pipeline and angry about how hard it is to beat constant access to thousands of videos / talking points pushed into their feed daily, with the couple hours I see them a week to attempt to ‘deprogram’ them… without trying to come across preachy or put them off learning alternative viewpoints (evidence-based reality). Its a struggle.

I’m guessing this is mostly rhetorical… But my 2¢: They failed at everything since kindergarten: education, socialisation, relationships, career, finances; everything they’ve tried they failed or they feel like they failed.

They need therapy, but that costs vulnerability and money, and their parents or peers told them it was for the weak. So instead, they get angry, and look around and on the first page of Insta, YouTube, and Facebook they find people like Shapiro, Fuentes, Petersen, Crowder, Southern - all telling them that someone else is to blame, not them, and then pointing at immigrants illegals, blacks inner city youth, and Jews globalists.

So now they’re looking for that someone else to punch down on to soothe their extreme insecurities, shame, and anger at the world (and themselves), but they’re still that doughy, insecure ‘failure’ that they haven’t done anything to change.

I’d guess it’s beneficial for smaller teams as it wipes out 95% of the “it runs fine on my machine” problems that bespoke PC configs generate. The devs would rather fix bugs on their system and add new features than waste days figuring out why a feature isn’t working for a single user’s config.

You can still extract the content of the container to see everything in the image if desired, and you can access the console and logs to see everything happening while it’s running.

Theres not much in the way of downsides. More space used for the image vs direct install being the main one.

The outcry is still limited because the woman shot appears to be in a gay relationship (a lady declaring herself as her wife was on scene at the murder).

So most conservatives are still unable to empathize nor see this as ‘one of their clan’ at risk, even though it was a white person.

It’ll take a MAGA-hat-wearing white guy being shot by ICE before they start to worry about the new SS.
