Debian is the GOAT

I don’t think I have ADHD but it really was a sport that when I started it just felt right. It’s never a chore to do and in most places you get to talk to a lot of different people while doing it.

Oh cool! Thank you!

I think that’s part of the issue. Social democracies tend to be far more run by the people. They tend to be highly influenced by capital power but not directly and that’s a huge difference. Most countries where this exists don’t have a gigantic money moving machine from corporations to politicians like the USA it’s subtle by way of capital flight.

Nice, so I started with the wrong one basically… I will follow your comment and go read the player of games after this. I was just afraid it never got better but you reassured me. I thought the series had some order so I started with the first one. Honestly, being separated books works even better for me. Thank you!

Social Democratic countries tend to take a lot of money from taxes and invest into public services and infrastructure. If you want to look at it in an optimistic light it’s a middle term to reach true socialism. I agree with it’s problems, I don’t identify as a social Democrate mostly because I feel it’s an ideology with the mere goal of trying to slow capitalism and that’s a goal too small for my liking.

Mostly priorities

I was looking for someone in this thread reading the culture series. I’m currently reading Consider Phlebas because the main themes and world building sounded like something I would like but I’m really struggling. I’m about 20% in (it’s an eBook) and I’m having trouble being focused reading it. I don’t know why but I just don’t care for Horza and I’m always wondering when it starts going deeper into The Culture. What do you think? Does it get better?
