Missed opportunity to have one guy yelling “:!q”
I think you want
:q!, otherwise you’re just trying to execute theqcommand in the shell. No wonder you’re stuck.Stuck in the DNS server.
The program q is not installed. Install it by executing: apt install q-dns-client

Did you miss me, Picard? I missed you.
This comic gets the collective despair across so well.
We will never forget the secret ending of Sword Art Online where Kirito finally exits the game, only to find there’s another options menu in the real world.
/s (but somehow I wouldn’t be surprised if they actually did that)
You might like Alicization
As a casual who only watched a bit of SAO, What’s that?
Basically season 3. I wouldn’t skip season 2 though - it’s also fantastic, albeit a totally different premise so ymmv.
Tyvm!
It also has a much different target audience. You might remember the original show being memed by people that it’s a shitty and cringe Anime, but Alicization is much different. The characters are grown up and I highly recommend it.
WHERES THE FUCKING BUTTON
Have you checked your midsection?
Just tried, only pissed myself.
wait until after puberty. it starts to feel different down there.
What in the fuck are y’all doing with your belly buttons??
isn’t that where we’re supposed to be storing our scheckles?
or they melt?
I’ve put so much stuff up there.
It is in your brain, is called “dissociation”.
Sorry pal, I don’t speak Russian
Oh boy, how great would that be
Eh, with my luck it would be the glitchy alpha version of utopia where it crashed and I had to start back at the beginning the second I walked into the door of the Federal Cupcake Bakery and Fuckatorium.
Just keep trying to enter the door in slightly different ways until it lets you in.
10,000 years later… “god damn it!”
bro, you just gotta do the jump-crouch wall clip frame perfect. Wait, what category speedrun is this again?
The scariest part is that real world is, in fact, a hardcore free-for-all PvP realm.
I’m not talking competition or something. A random person can absolutely come to you at any time, stab or shoot you and you’ll be dead. Forever. No respawns.
It’s only because people don’t really like being murdered that led them to make and enforce rules on what violence is legitimate that curbed the violence. But even still, anytime, anywhere, by anyone, you can absolutely be killed. And if one day something breaks in the chain that makes police work, we’re super screwed.
It’s not the police that keep us from killing each other, or even laws that do so. Check out law and authority sometime if you’re able. It’s very short and worth a read. We don’t kill each other because we don’t enjoy being killed or killing. We’re social creatures, and don’t want to be shunned. Crimes of passion don’t really change based on laws, but the way we organize society may actually be increasing the number of murders, because some people are desperate enough to kill for food or shelter
I read half of it. It seems to overidealize the pre-law era to a large degree. Before law we had mass slavery, constant raiding of nearby tribes and nothing to prevent anybody from taking everything from a person. There is definitely a case where laws can become draconian and force people to break them but I’d argue that in most countries law prevent more unwanted behavior than cause it.
This especially doesn’t apply in modern times since you just need one person to create a private mercenary group to essentially create a mini kingdom within a loosely organised society. That person will very quickly be able to form a successful dictatorship by raiding, enslaving and demanding tribute from nearby settlements.
Even a laissez faire government with everything legal except violence will essentially make it legal to dump toxic waste on your front lawn everywhere without policing and laws. Toxic waste is currently being dumped with laws just under woefully loose law and I’d argue that we need more laws and regulation to prevent people from doing so.
I feel like anarchist theory quickly forgets that we had anarchy before law and people quickly formed kingdoms around settlements to defend themselves and aggressive kingdoms where more successful than passive ones.
Anarchism just won’t work lol. People will band together, larger groups would survive and whoops! It’s countries all over again
Anarchism is a lot of work negotiating, setting standards and consequences, balancing forces. Constant politics without an overarching state. Any concentration of capability for violence or resource to be shared must be extremely carefully handled.
What you are describing is warlords filling a political vacuum caused by chaos.
Someone has been misrepresenting anarchism to you.
I think the point he’s making is that anarchism is one big power vacuum and those are usually filled with warlords and power brokers. Anarchism can still exist within a state such as Christiania in Denmark and from what I’ve heard it works pretty well.
It does seem like a power vacuum if you are fully convinced that power needs to be centralized.
I am reminding the thread that the absence of distributed power is chaos, not anarchism.
Anarchism is anything BUT a power vacuum. All the power is carefully doled out via negotiation and in no way lacking.
Strong propaganda is devoted to supporting your presumption that power only exists when concentrated, so it does feel natural and common sense to say that.
Is state enforced anarchism really anarchist?
When did we possibly have anarchy before law? Genuinely
Up to first civilizations, and practically also up to, like, XIX-XX centuries in many rural areas.
Really, you can replace police and laws with any form of more or less organized sanctions against the perpetrators.
Law and authority is a good read, but it shows exactly that - without centralized power, people do (and, according to Kropotkin, people should) put system of unwritten controls all by themselves. And that keeps us from sliding into the savage world where everyone preys on one another. But if something breaks in this chain, if we accept the violence against one another, we’ll get extinct very rapidly.
Will always upvote Kropotkin.
What the hell are you talking about. I can assure you that perspective of jail is an excellent deterrent to crime
Or you know you can go ahead and be sodomized and beaten for 5 years if that’s your choice of things. For sure isn’t mine tho. It’s not even jail but the anal prolapse that is the true deterrent.
You people are completely detached from reality in the most stupid of ways. my sincere advice is to get real unless you want to self nominate to the Darwin Award
According to a quick search, the US has the 6th highest incarnation rate per capita but is only 148th lowest in intentional homicide rate. Obviously this is far from conclusive but it suggests there’s no strong correlation. There are likely much more significant factors than how prison-happy a country is.
This isn’t exactly an in depth study so I could still be wrong, but it’s much more convincing than just some assurance from a random stranger on the internet.
That is such a shallow glance at statistics that I am not even going to bother discussing it. It’s obvious you have zero grasp on statistical inference.
It’s literally same error that conservatists propagate with bipoc areas crime rate…
It’s not deeply rigorous but it’s correct reasoning in principal.
The scientific and statistical standard interpretation of the null hypothesis is that there’s no relationship between the variables in question. It’s up to the researcher to establish an evidence based argument that the null hypothesis should be rejected in favor of some alternative.
When we “fail to reject” the null hypothesis, we haven’t proved it’s true, we just continue to assume it is until someone proves otherwise.
In this case, the alternate hypothesis is that there’s a correlation between incarceration and crime rates and the null is that no such correlation exists.
As of now, the bulk of the research has failed to find such a relationship https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C22&q=correlation+incarceration+crime&btnG=
I’m curious then, and this is not a value judgment. This is a genuine question to understand the perspective. Is the threat of getting abused in jail the only thing keeping you from breaking the law? If you could guarantee no consequences, would you start murdering? Personally, things wouldn’t change for me. Just like I don’t need god as a moral authority, I don’t need law to want to be beneficial to my community.
The consequences keep me from doing things. I mean do I really need to explain the obvious?
I am not going to send anyone funny words on lemmy when I am angry to not get banned.
What user iforglythename wants is to not have bans on lemmy. Let’s see what happens. Let’s see how that will work out
It’s flabbergasting that this even needs explanation. I think you guys may be so out of touch with nature the whole lemmy reality is bizzare and trippy at this point. Someone needs to be sane here
The consequences keep me from doing things.
Personally I don’t murder because I don’t want to and I feel like it’s wrong to do so. Sure there are consequences, but I really don’t need them to stop me from going out murdering people. Perhaps there are people who do need these consequences, but it seems a fair statement to say that most don’t.
Yea sure yet even online I see many comments that want to kill the rich or kill the pedophiles, Russians or animal abusers or anyone that person thinks they deserve to die.
In what world you live where it isn’t the majority?
You’re taking the utterings of keyboard warriors as reflective of reality?
It’s only because people don’t really like being murdered that…
No it’s also, and more importantly, because people don’t like murdering
If not for people’s negative feelings toward being murdered, I would only take <1% of people enjoying murdering for it to be an extinction-level problem.
Such an incredibly small number of people want to murder that, even though it would only take <1% of people to get rid of the whole population, we are nowhere near that.
I’m genuinely curious what that number would be if we removed any stigma from admitting to it. I’m having trouble finding reliable numbers for sociopathy, but my unreliable memory from reading The Sociopath Nextdoor was 5% of the population are sociopaths, and I don’t think it’s unreasonable that 20% of those would have people they’d kill if there were no consequences for doing so.
And if one day something breaks in the chain that makes police work, we’re super screwed.
Sad USA noises
I quoted that exact part in a reply before I saw yours. What part of fantasy land is this person from?
No respawns.
I mean, maybe we respawn on a different server.
Yeah… as a different material. Some wood, stone, grass or a few water molecules dilluted in an ocean. With more luck maybe as a different lesser species.
Why not?
You can get banned for team killing.
Already long broken for people of color
Not only can they PK, they can cripple you for life. You can be completely fucked way worse than ‘just’ dying.
Yep!
And if one day something breaks in the chain that makes police work…
Are you a time traveler?
Yes.
holy fuck this is dark
I dunno, seems uplifting to me, if it means we can switch.
Tactical comment: reply here if you discover how to switch
I can think of two different ways:
- going insane and dissociating from reality
- getting ultra rich, or being born in ultra rich family
Getting ultra rich won’t save you from suffering. It can put it off a little while, but sickness, loss of loved ones, old age, and death come for us all.
sickness
Solved by money, there’s nearly no sickness in the world that you can’t get treated effectively if you pay enough for the privelege.
loss of loved ones
The rich don’t love anyone
old age
We’re making great strides on this in the medical sector, also solved by money. We don’t have this one truly “solved” yet but I expect a workable solution within 100 years.
death
Not if you upload yourself to Xitter and get turned into a chatbot!

To choose order over disorder, or disorder over order, is to accept a trip composed of both the creative and the destructive. But to choose the creative over the destructive is an all-creative trip composed of both order and disorder. To accomplish this, one need only accept creative disorder along with, and equal to, creative order, and also willing to reject destructive order as an undesirable equal to destructive disorder.
The Curse of Greyface included the division of life into order/disorder as the essential positive/negative polarity, instead of building a game foundation with creative/destructive as the essential positive/negative. He has thereby caused man to endure the destructive aspects of order and has prevented man from effectively participating in the creative uses of disorder. Civilization reflects this unfortunate division.

yes. you can read my previous comments on how to switch. all i’m trying to do is make people understand how to switch.
spoiler: it isn’t pretty
The way I see it: the last three panels didn’t happen (in reality).
They happen, but a plurality on the server has to agree to the change.
That’s why the power gamers have invested so heavily in all the in game ads saying how creative mode will be awful and PvP is vital to the generation of new content.
I am here for the MMO-ified explanation of economic systems.
Christ, I’m an old head but I remember way back in the day when people would spend weeks on message boards arguing over the optimal design spec for MMO economies.
The first time I heard the “wheat domesticated people” hypothesis now popularized in the book “Against the Grain” was on a forum for Asheron’s Call. Also, a bunch of long form research about how agricultural practices impacted social development (wheat giving birth to libertarian yeomen farmers while rice encouraged people to collectivize as a matter of agricultural necessity).
None of it mattered to the MMO producers, since it all they cared about was farming the player base. But it was a fun time to be a college kid with a direct line to software developers.
you know how people in Minecraft build all kinds of wonderful and amazing things such as machinery and art and games and all kinds of shit?
that’s what life would be like if we didn’t have to work to survive.You have to work to survive in Minecraft, too. Which is to say, all those wonderful things are the product of human labor.
But in Minecraft, you get to enjoy the surplus of that labor. You don’t have a handful of Whale players draining your reserves with extortionary rents.
More importantly, in Minecraft crops grow in like 3 days, you never get sick and never age, and the global population is post-apocalyptic.
It would be interesting if you could make a minecraft server with tens of thousands of people in one survival word. See how fast resources become scarce.
They will dupe the shit out of server
This is basically 2b2t
I mean like they could all join at once
that’s what life would be like if we didn’t have to work to survive
Which mustn’t be an issue. Most advanced nations produce a surplus of food for example. So much, that an insane amount of it is wasted and never consumed.
So in principle, sure. Some work is necessary to allow a certain quality of life for all and ensure survival. But if you think about our fucked up wealth distribution, it does not need to be so hard.
So basically heaven
So I guess 2b2t isn’t the oldest anarchy server after all
Moral of the story: don’t skip the tutorial.
Sorry, I grew up on 1980s video games. Only nerds and losers read the manual.
Your loss. The manuals of yesteryear were amazing. Better than the game, generally.
Spotted the rich kid who didn’t buy 40 games on one tape, each with an one-line description
Oh no, mine were fully pirated bootlegs. Even the commercial pirates knew to keep the manuals included though
Neat!
If I read the manuals, I wouldn’t still be saying Mario jumps on mushrooms and turtles and I like it that way.
So did I and everybody read the manual, those who didn’t just rage quit after five minutes because games were fucking impossible beyond the most basic racing or sports games.
You didn’t read them in the car on the way home?
Stop teasing us
it’s hardcore you just need to get killed to go to the main menu
I’m going to go find a train tunnel to stand inside of.
And 2 months later he returned to PVP mode because he got bored.
Now about that “Appearance” tab…
When do I get to customize penis size?
Had to give it a shot at least
