  • Funny enough the US (and Canada) don’t seem to consider Mediterraneans fully “white.” You get people with Spanish/Italian/Greek heritage getting offended when they’re called white.

    Neither did Hitler. Mussolini tried kissing his ass but he was never prepared to consider Italians equal to Aryans.

    Also the Iranian guy they killed was paler than the average American, and in general Iranians have very fair skin but are not considered “white” by white supremacists.

    It just shows how whiteness is an ever narrowing category and you, yes you, current white person, WILL eventually by excluded by it if the people who believe in whiteness (i.e. the Nazis) succeed.



  • Feb 28 (Reuters) - An official from the European Union’s naval mission Aspides said on Saturday that vessels have been receiving VHF transmission from Iran’s Revolutionary Guards saying “no ship is allowed to pass the Strait of Hormuz”.

    The strait is the world’s most vital oil export route, which connects the biggest Gulf oil producers, such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq and the United Arab Emirates, with the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea.

    The official, who spoke to Reuters on condition of anonymity, said Iran had not formally confirmed any such order. Tehran has for years threatened to block the narrow waterway in retaliation for any attack on the Islamic Republic.

    Also, is my browser not loading it correctly or is this the whole article?

    If so, I’m extremely impressed at the sheer amount of Journalism they’re doing here. A whole three lines of journalism? We’re not worthy!

    I wouldn’t recommend dual booting anything with Windows, especially if you’re not familiar with installing multiple operating systems. Windows will pretty frequently fuck up your boot settings when it updates because it doesn’t respect not being the only OS on your system and will cause way more problems than it solves.

    My recommendation if you really want to stay on Linux is to run Linux as your only OS and then run Windows from a VM for the apps you absolutely need to use. VirtualBox or GNOME Boxes are good options if you want a regular Windows VM with little to no integration with the host Linux instance. There are also software that will create an experience like Parallels on Mac with Windows apps that appear as regular windows in your Linux desktop (I’ve heard about WinBoat but don’t personally use it so can’t say if I recommend it or not). For most games, Proton should have you covered.

    If you want distro recommendations, I’d say Fedora or Linux Mint are good options for general users getting into Linux. If you do a lot of gaming, I’ve heard good things about Bazzite.
