Looking forward to the review. I’m into it for nothing else other than the physical key board.
Throw Pop_OS on and see if that fixes literally everything.
Instructions unclear. I’ve fallen for her bullshit.


Fuck yeah. Lets do it!


Something maybe being missed in this, is that stack overflow was also a community. It wasn’t just getting a question answered. If you are a specialist in some domain, you would be returning to the same community and get to know others asking question and others answering.
And that community was exploited, entirely.
I think a part of whats happening here has been a betrayal of trust when it comes to community building.


What pixel would you recommend? Is the one you used sufficient?


not as as a distraction machine.
Yeah I’ve got a steam deck for that.
How about connectivity/ usability? Have you had any issues with particular apps or functionality?


How was switching up the phone? I’ve been on linux for 10 years, but I still use android because I’ve found the switch via the phone to be far more intimidating.


Yes. And the farmer didn’t offer comment so we only get the land lords perspective. I’m heading over there next month. I’ll probably head over and ask around as to what the community thinks.


Its a direct consequence of the leasehold system. If you aren’t familiar with Hawaiian land ownership or Hawaiian agriculture, I doubt you have much experience with it.
A landlord wants to extract more rents, the farmer who knows what their margins support say no can.
If the farmer owned the land, this wouldn’t be an issue. Its not a brand/ trademark issue. Its a structural issue related to land tenure and land ownership in a state where a 5000 square foot lot goes for 300k+ minimum and where five corporations effectively control 90%+ of private land.
Agriculture can’t support the kind of rents modern capital expects to collect.


I mean, its not what the article says and its not what is happening.
Its the leasehold system. When farmers don’t own their land, this is what happens.
Kauai is insanely expensive land. This will become cookie cutter subdivisions if the state doesnt step in.


I hate that we have to go to SFGate to get this kind of news, its important to keep in mind at least a touch of the history here.
Alexander and Baldwin as a corporation is one of the largest land holders in Hawaii, and this is a direct extension of the forced labor sugar plantation system, that dominated Hawaii under both the kingdom, and the “Republic of Hawaii”.
Right now the vast majority of the same land that used forced labor to extract the wealth of Hawaii and move it into the hands of rich. Effectively, these same names were the ones who performed a coup to kidnap the Hawaiian Queen in a corporate coup. When Queen Liliuokalani speaks of this time, she uses the word “oligarch” in her contemporary writings, notes, and speeches of the time. These same oligarchs (not just A&B, but other old missionary families) still control 90% of the private land in Hawaii. They came as missionaries, converted the royalty to christianity, then stole the government when Liliuokalani wanted to reform the constitution. In the sugar planters own writings they basically cite two reasons for the coup: 1) they didn’t want to allow the reformation of the labor system; 2) they didn’t want to pay tariffs into the US.
That 90% of the land is basically almost all of the prime farm and ranch land in Hawaii. They almost exclusively do not sell it, but use a “leasehold” land lease system. This is exactly why Kauai coffee is going under. If land is kept expensive, you can’t afford to grow food on it. Hawaii imports 90%+ of its calories. In-spite of being some of the most prime agricultural land on the planet, its almost all been left fallow since the collapse of sugar cane last century.
Edit: There are other pressures on coffee right now. Specially disease and labor pressures (ICE raids focus on areas of the islands requiring seasonal labor, and much of the coffee labor is central/ south American). But that is NOT why this is happening.

There’s no way it’s DNS
It was DNS


Okay, well, I’m trying to elaborate for you, like you asked. Does that mean making sure they have food? Does that mean physically defending them from har?


Well it would be helpful to understand what you mean by self-defense. Some people hear that and think barricades and molotovs. Others think community gardens. The fact is there are many ways to resist authoritarianism.
What does community defense mean to you?


Meh. GoT’s failure burnt me out on most of the actors from that series.


SCSI

I remember it being pronounced “skuzzy”


physically resisting isn’t going to do you any good.
Well at a certain point that may be the only option and human history is mostly examples of us failing to appeal to our better nature. Longer we wait do do things that physically stop these thugs from doing what they are doing, the longer this goes on for.
Interesting. No matter how many times I’m placed on hold, I still haven’t found what I’m looking for.
