L'Internationale :france-cool:

The Paris Commune was established on 18 March 1871, but its roots can be traced right back to 1848, when a wave of democratic revolution originating in France washed across the European continent

In France, the democratic revolution was defeated in a matter of months, ending with the bloody suppression of a workers’ revolt protesting against the closure of the national workshops in June 1848. Despite this, the street fighting of this period laid the foundations for the establishment of an autonomous French workers’ movement, which operated independently of the centrist bourgeois political parties—a key prerequisite for the formation of the 72-day-long “Republic of Workers” in 1871.

Following the defeat of the uprising, however, a military dictatorship initially asserted control, before handing the reins to Napoleon III a few months later. East of the Rhine, in a fragmented Germany, monarchic powers were also able to put down revolutionary efforts and defeat the democracy movement. The latter’s demand for German national unity was subsequently co-opted “from above”, redefined and positioned as a project designed to suit the Prussian-led response. The policies pursued by the Prussian crown were geared towards preserving monarchic power while also seeking to unify Germany, this would led to the Franco-Prussian War.

During the Franco-Prussian war the then Emperor Napoleon III was capture during the Battle of Sedan. This sudden defeat sealed the fate of the Second French Empire, but did not signify the end of the war, with the Prussian troops marching onwards towards Paris with the aim of capturing it.

Following the defeat at the Battle of Sedan, the Third Republic was proclaimed in Paris, despite a complete lack of democratic legitimacy. Although the empire’s political and military failures meant it had been discredited, the Republic did not act to remove the monarchy. According to Marx, the measures taken by the government were evidence that they had “inherited from the empire not only ruins, but also its dread of the working class”.

By the beginning of October 1870, Paris was under total siege, beset on all sides by Prussian forces, and attempts to break the siege line with troops from the provinces had also failed. At the end of January 1871, Jules Favre, minister of foreign affairs for the Provisional Government of National Defence, signed an armistice with the newly formed German Empire

The armistice treaty stipulated that only a freshly elected National Assembly would have the power to ratify an eventual peace treaty. The assembly first met on 12 February in Bordeaux—far removed from the nation’s capital, which remained in a state of total siege by German troops.

In Paris, both the choice of location for the National Assembly as well as the make-up of the new government were viewed as betrayals of those who had spent months defending the capital against the siege.

In order to defend Paris against the German troops, in September 1870 the Thiers-led government had reorganized the National Guard and enlisted unemployed men into its regiments. This led to a change in the military’s demographic character; National Guard soldiers deposed their officers, elected new commanders from within their own ranks, and also established their own governing body, the Central Committee of the National Guard.

Having failed to capture the cannons and surprised by the workers’ resolve, Thiers decided to decamp the capital and head to Versailles, accompanied by his government and loyalist army regiments. That they were able to flee the city with ease was due to the fact that the National Guard battalions—anticipating a renewed attack by government forces—had barricaded themselves in their neighbourhood strongholds or otherwise directed their movements to avoid a confrontation.

As the sun set over Paris that evening, power in the French capital essentially resided on the streets. Given this situation, the National Guard’s Central Committee decided to cobble together a provisional government. The majority of the Parisian population first learnt of the shift that had occurred in their city the following morning, when the Central Committee occupied the Hôtel de Ville, raised a red flag, and addressed the city’s residents with their first proclamation:

You charged us with organizing the defence of Paris and of your rights.

We are conscious of having fulfilled this mission: aided by your generous courage and your admirable calm, we have chased out the government that betrayed us.

At this time our mandate has expired, and we yield it, for we don’t claim to be taking the place of those who a revolutionary wind has just overthrown.

So prepare and carry out your communal elections, and as a reward give us the only one we ever wished for: seeing you establish the true republic.

In the meanwhile, in the name of the people we will remain at the Hôtel-de-Ville.

The provisional government’s first official act was publishing a call for elections to determine the make-up of the Commune Council. The revolution of the previous day had laid the foundations for a French republic that would permanently “mark the end of the era of invasions and civil war”. Additionally, the Central Committee saw itself as the force that had defended Paris and one which would now return control of the city to its residents through the council elections.

The election took place less than ten days later, on 26 March; just two days later, the Paris Commune officially came into being. Given the urgency of organizing an election within such a short timeframe, there was scant discussion about the Commune’s actual political programme in those first few days. For this reason—according to Prosper Lissagaray, himself a Communard—votes were primarily cast based on name recognition. Consequently, the Commune Council ended up comprising a colourful mixture of Jacobins, socialists, anarchists, Romantics, and representatives of the bourgeoise opposition to Napoleon III. This meant that the Commune included powerful factions that took their political inspiration from the concepts of the bourgeoise French Revolution of 1789 right alongside proto-socialists, anarchists, and Marxists. This diversity of political positions was reflective of the century of class struggle that had preceded the founding of the Commune.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger is kinda fun and 10x the effort went into it compared to any pokemon game recently. But the gameplay systems are so complex and they hide stuff from you so much.

You don't get to see what you're digivolving to until after you do it unless you look it up, the personality/nature system is ass and you don't get to control it until 20 hours in, there is no respec option for the skill tree (just specialize in one personality quadrant, wish I knew that earlier), and overall it just seems like I'm fighting against the game just to get what I want.

And the difficulty spikes are straight up Not Okay. I had to get the exp grind dungeon DLC to make it through at all. JRPGs are sooooo annoying sometimes.

OH AND ALSO, WHY DID THEY HIDE THE MOST IMPORTANT ATTACK, THE ATTACK POLARITY SWITCHER, HIDDEN IN THE FIRST DUNGEON THAT YOU CAN'T GO BACK TO IF YOU MISS IT?!? Fuck thattttttttttt.

Funny thing is that having a bunch of convoluted systems, along with a convoluted and opaque digivolution system that involves level caps you have to manoeuvre and sudden difficulty spikes is like the digimon rpg equivalent of a Pokémon game getting phoned in. I remember the PS1 ones were like this, cyber sleuth had so many tedious unexplained systems that I just kinda gave up.

Anyway it’s a 10/10.

progressively getting more taken with the idea of getting one of those low power miniPCs and self hosting everything that I can. I've already got navidrome for music--I could do photos, passwords, comics, books, calendar/contacts, notes... Passwords does kinda scare me because I'd be screwed if I messed up and lost the data so maybe I'd simmer on that.

I've got a server with a lot of that set up and I still just use Bitwarden for passwords. It's worth for all the other stuff.

Check out Immich, Komga, Calibre-Web/Calibre-Web Automated/Grimmory(later, once they finish ripping out the AI slop from the original Booklore creator) for some of the other things you listed.

Just make it backup the passwords files regularly to another PC or your phone. The passwords should be stored encrypted anyway so it doesn't really matter if it's somewhere else too unless your are a whistleblower type.

Fighting a war only on the weekends is genuinely so strange, I feel like that got hypernormalized in rapid time.

It’s fun when Trump people pull something they think is a 3D chess move but it actually reveals they’re as dumb as they seem. Like yeah you’ve slowed the rate at which the markets are going to correct, but not because you outsmarted them, the markets are just designed in a way that most players can’t risk making corrections faster than the rest of the market. There are still going to be futures contracts that can’t be fulfilled, and people will still need to clear their positions and reprice based on supply chain disruptions.

It’s funny that the real estate guy who built his entire political brand about reindustrialization is so bought in on financialization he doesn’t realize that consequences can only be delayed, not removed. It’s like how they didn’t believe their erratic actions from Trump 1 had long term consequences because pension funds and sovereign funds opted to let t-bills expire instead of selling them on the market.

What's the consenseus on the cause for war with Iran? The zionist entity definitely playing it's part, but why would the forces of Capital allow this to happen? Artificial scarcity to drive up western-controlled oil prices?

Israel wants state collapse of Iran so they can place a comprador government in its place. A comprador Iran no longer supports Hezbollah

Trump is playing president like a board game and he's trying to secure all the oil tiles. Venezuela, Iran, Nigeria. Probably on hopes of icing China out of the market. The same "choke chain" the us had Japan on before ww2 (oil embargo). It won't work, of course, but don't tell him that

I got off work and came home to the sober living house, and found out the house director dropped off his cat to live with us because the people who were previously taking care of the cat were moving to California. This is the best news I've gotten in months, I fucking love cats, he's such a sweet baby. We were taking care of someone's dog when her owner was in rehab, but I'm dog neutral. She was a sweet dog with a great personality and very well trained, but after my childhood dog died I've never connected with another dog. Cats though? I love my cats. When I was with my ex, we had 3 cats. When I got hooked on fentanyl benzos and Ambien, I only stayed hooked for about 2-3 months because I felt so bad about being a bad step parent and cat parent. When I was going through those withdrawals, the only things I'd get out of bed for was to clean my cat's litter boxes and feed them (the step kiddo was with his grandparents when I did this, otherwise I would have gotten out of bed for him too). I remember leaving my abusive ex at one point and I'd sneak back into the house while she was at work to clean their litter boxes and give them treats. Eventually I ended up getting back with her unfortunately, but those cats cared about me when it felt like nobody else would.

This is very new, previous policy was absolutely no pets at the sober living house. But after the president had a very close friend go to rehab, he loosened up on the policy for his friend's dog. There was a street cat in our neighborhood that bonded itself to me and kept on trying to come into our house and I felt so bad not being able to accept that cat into my home. They wanted to be my baby so bad, and I wanted to love that cat so bad. I still feed the neighborhood cats with the canned tuna I get from food pantries when I have it. The other neighbors feed them as well though, so I guess I can start giving that canned tuna to my new baby.

The Last Guardian got too much hate when it came out. It's the only game on the PS4 I've played that felt 'next gen', as in it justifies the extra processing power with more than just more polygons and bigger textures.

Sure the kid controls a bit weird and the buttons make no sense, but ICO pioneered that type of platformed so they can ignore 10 years of Assassin's Creed slop to do whatever they want. And the animation might look a bit janky but it feels organic.

And Trico looks and moves amazingly. There was so much thought and attention put into that dog/cat/chicken thing its movements are so smooth, it never gets stuck on anything, and it feels so natural. Play it if you haven't already

When i was last at the dentist a cover of Cyndi Lauper's cover of Girl's Just Wanna Have fun and she pointed out to her assistant that the Cyndi Lauper version itself was a cover of a Robbie Hazard song and pointed out an obscure Tina Tuner track. I wish I could talk during dentsl procedures cause I am a huge music nerd and was aware of both things

Heres the original Girl's Just Wanna Have fun BTW. I love Cyndi and her version, but this shit sound like a Clash song and I love The Clash

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5aLNwOxPsjg&list=RDcvChjHcABPA&index=12&pp=8AUB

From what ive read the Robby Hazard version was written as a telling dudes to fuck off and let women into rock n roll cause they also just wanna have fun. It does come off more that way in this song where its more hard rockin. I think it came through sorta for Cyndi but I feel that version is more Girl's JUST Wanna Have Fun, instead of GIRLS Just Wanna Have Fun. Ironically the dude version feels more feminist. Probably cause it was a demo and not a heavily manufactured 80s single. I hold absolutely nothing at all against Cyndi Lauper'a version or especially Cyndi herself, that woman is an icon and one of the few people I would genuinely be nervous speaking to

To end off this nuclearly bad week, I finally got back on my Lyrica and I feel so much better. I've been so much better of a friend to my housemates, they all say it's a night and day difference when I'm on and off it. I'm sure quitting my anti-psychotic has made that difference more pronounced. I drank a bunch of coffee and smoked way more than usual now that I'm back on my Lyrica, but I had a really fun night.

The sober living I'm house manager of is specifically for trans and queer people, so I've taken great joy in teaching some people how to be trans and teaching them liberation queerness instead of mainstream neolib queerness. One of the trans guys that just started experimenting with gender when he got to the house a few months ago bought a packer and seeing his joy with that was so rewarding.

::: spoiler CW: Cigs Also one of my housemates is taking me across town to get my preferred cigarettes. I like Marlboro black menthols, but now that I live in the inner city, the price on those are doubled where I live, to around $7-$8 a pack. In the suburb I lived in before this, they were around $3.50 a pack. So I've been smoking Lucky Strikes because they're the best cheap cigarettes in the city, but they're still a little over $5 a pack where I live now, whereas in that suburb they were only $4 a pack.

I ran out of cigs and money this last week, so one of my housemates gave me a couple of packs to hold me through the week, but they're full flavors and they're not particularly good full flavors so I've been kinda sad about that. Obviously I appreciate the free packs of cigarettes, especially because they weren't bottom of the barrel cigs, but I just love menthols so much. :::

I can't believe OpenAI just shut Sora down. It seems like a massive admission of weakness from a company entirely sustained by hype.

Yeah, putting data centers in places that are hot and betting against global warming was a bad bet before the straight of hormuz gangster checked the petrodollar

I’m guessing they’re preparing for an IPO and need to cut out some of their biggest loss leaders to look good on due diligence tests. TBH it’s a big vote of confidence that llm coding agents are close enough to profitability. Really funny that smug tech guys thinking they’re going to put creatives out of work might be the only ones that the AI hype puts out of work.

I'd somehow totally missed that the hyprland guy sucks, so I just spent the last few days setting up niri instead and I wish I'd done it sooner, niri's got some nice stuff built in.

The screenshot tool is better than the one I'd settled for in hyprland for example. And being able to block certain applications from showing up while screen sharing is neat.

Also replaced my shitty handmade waybar with noctalia-shell which looks way nicer and somehow also loads faster than my waybar was on hyprland??

I'm not sure I've got games fully working with xwayland-satellite, but the one I really cared about that was having issues I was able to get working by running it under Wayland directly, which before I went through all this I didn't even know was an option these days!

Nice I’m running the same setup! Niri is so nice, and noctalia being a turnkey shell literally feels like cheating at WM usage lol

It really does, especially since you can just tweak it though the gui and then export the config to a file.

Did you change the default niri binds much at all? I've got a 60% keyboard so the defaults were a little awkward since I needed to press a function key to get arrow keys. I'm still fiddling with them

Yeah I’m a (neo)vim person so I use all the vim-like binds. I also use alt over the super key as my main modifier. So alt+h/j/k/l move focus, alt+shift+h/j/k/l for swapping windows, and then alt+ctrl+h/l are my “consume/expel window from stack” binds. I’ve touched just about all of them but that’s the core workflow for me haha

I'm reading The Class Struggle by Kautsky and it's like an updated Communist Manifesto. It's still 130 years old but it feels so much more contemporary than the Manifesto. I think it might be better suited for entry level Marxist literature.

I should check it out, but I feel hesitant to engage with anything by the Renegade Kautsky

I don't think it's out of line with the ideas of Marx or Engels. Kautsky wrote it in 1892 after spending like a decade learning from Engels so it's well before he began drifting away from Marxism and it's about the Erfurt program which Lenin admired. It's not a ground breaking work of theory that will enlighten even a half decently read Marxist but like I said it describes a society much closer to our own than the Manifesto does which would probably be useful to anyone looking for entry level texts.

Been watching Sakamoto days and it's ok, the premise of assassin shows just been living me meh. Used to be big on it from say no more heroes but even then ::: spoiler spoiler The premise of the first game was there was no league of assassins your just going around killing so many people for a revenge plot that didn't even matter much. :::

Idk the premise of a character that will say kill your family for the right price but is still friendly and personable I feel is just some capitalist brain rot. People doing horrible shit for money but going it's just a job. Idk about the sequels but at least in the first game Travis is very maladjusted gamer not pleasant to be around and the killing assassin part didn't help...

Rick and Morty played that sort of personable assassin character for laughs. I think his name was Krombopolos Michael. Almost putting a lampshade on how ridiculous it is. "I just love killing"

I remember the character but fuck me if I could remember the name, it's a good concept even if it gets undermined with the target of that subplot needing to die

I nearly got him mixed up with Nathan Fillions time cop character because they have the same species and naming convention.

If you like science fiction themed prog metal like Blood Incantation you should check out Cryptic Shift and their new album. More thrash with a jazz influence than straight death metal, but that's great. There needs to be more science fiction metal bands

Thanks for the rec! And agreed. You ever listen to Slugdge?

Yes, I've given them a listen. They're good but one band I was listening to around the same time I like so much more is Slimelord. Their debut is an amazing piece of work

I used AI to put together a native garden and pollinator plan for a local community trail that has sparse trees and minimal shrubs. So I now gotta try and run that through our local district and county planning.

Might want to fact check each plant lol

Will do
