    It has been. India was a socialist state. The illusion of socialism failing was thanks to western sanctions. Until capitalism fucked us all. 40% of the wealth is now owned by 1%.

    Zamindari system? Destroyed by socialism.

    Caste-based reservation for affirmative action? Introduced by socialism.

    Famine? Green revolution under socialism solved that issue.

    Dairy development for malnourished kids? White revolution under socialism solved that.

    Armed freedom revolution before independence? Azad Hind Fauj (Free India Army) under the command of Subhash Chandra Bose, a prominent leftist-nationalist fought the British Indian army, and HSRA, the Hindustan Socialist Republic Association assassinated imperialist genocidal scums.




  • What I want is a wrapper for River and Waybar, similar to dwl-guile and dtao-guile. I have this obsession with being a language puritan - I try to avoid contamination of multiple languages/markup file in my project. I don’t want my configuration repo to be polluted by any text or JSON file, other than scheme itself. Since I don’t have the time to work on creating a similar patch, and also because I don’t want to bother with configuration for the time-being because I want to focus on learning software dev, I chose to configure a debloated GNOME configuration with some GNOME apps removed, and other fancy features disabled.

    Also, I’m more of a workspace person. I like to label workspaces, and open at most only three apps per workspace. I appreciate the dynamic workspace that’s in GNOME. River’s workspace wasn’t actually a workspace. It was some weird concept about view toggling, and I didn’t like that.


  • Start using GitHub

    You mean Git SCM/VCS? GitHub is a Microsoft-owned software forge. True that it has a lot of software hosted, but personally, I think they’re scummy. There’s are other alternatives, like Codeberg and GitLab. It shouldn’t matter what forge you’re using realistically, but ideologically, if you’re a copy-left hardliner, you might want to avoid them.

    You don’t really need to use a tiling window. You can still use a floating window manager and learn Linux stuff.On my Guix system, I had River setup with Waybar, Rofi and Rivertile, with other utilities like WirePlumber, brightnessctl, etc and I didnt really enjoy the experience. Sure, I could have spent some more time on improving that, but I thought that it was pointless having dotfiles next to my scheme config, so I went back to GNOME Shell.




  • I want to stress this out, but Hindi ISN’T the national language of India. We don’t have a national language, only official and state languages. State languages are also misleading - it represents only the majority linguistic group, and not the minority and tribal section. Hindi is spoken in the Hindi belt with a regional twist. You may be able to converse with a Bhojpuri or Brij speaker, but that’s like trying to speak to a Welsh or Gaelic speaker in English.








  • What do you think of the Dune series? Is that easy to read? On second thought I am a little curious about technotheism or dark-absurdism in general. I’ve enjoyed reading Samurai 8 and Ai-Ren, which are both Japanese manga, and I wanted something that has the vibe of Asura’s Wrath or Deus Ex Machina.
