Welcome to BSD Unplugged, where Chris misreads KDE release notes in the preshow! BSDs have had brightness control for decades, but desktop widgets/plasmoids for it were 3rd-party addons rather than prebundled in KDE/Plasma. This FreeBSD integration is a minor push, but it shows FreeBSD as a 1st-class target thanks to open collaboration w/KDE&FreeBSD projects. I wish more BSDers dogfooded their desktops *Allan*. For those of us who already do, it's fairly seamless for most workflows, esp. w/ZFS!

Indeed, while Episodes 75-77 touched on this theme a bit, Episode 161 really seems to distill it convincingly and palatably. Bravo!

If this conversation leaves you with anything it should be that brick layers make the best piano tuners... esp. if they are Italian. :)Show Notes:Vince on Substack The "Inciting Incident" Tweet about Japan's "Stimulus"

Thank you for the support in all venues! The steelmanning was the goal of the show from the outset. when we recorded I wasn’t sure we’d captured that, but inreviewing and editing it (lightly to improve flow) it came out in the final cut.

I think the japanese widow maker trade is a great example of peoples tendency to narrowly focus in on a single variable (government debt to GDP) while ignoring other important information (eg private + corporate debt, culture). Even a super smart guy like Kyle Bass can miss the bigger picture.

yes, this is exactl6 the point. Bass is smart but I also suspect he’s “intelligence adjacent” as it were. when someone who should know better only focuses on one variable it’s usually a sign they are shaping the narrative. Note the same arguments then get transferred to the US, because now everyone is a SME on government finances.

Kudos to you and Vince here for such a serious steel-man argument, and takedown, of Davos, going back to the origins. Many folks, fanboys and critics alike, don't look past the stated goals and appearances of influential institutions. It's (all too) easy to mock Klaus Schwab, but when you factually explain the motives of the Davos crowd, it's all the easier to discredit the lot as misguided+incompetent.

also don't forget state regulations. California can end up practically dictating what goes on the US markets even if the feds don't get involved...

Episode #160 - Eric Peters and How the War on Cars is the Great Reset
There is a war on for your car which, in a broader sense, is the war on your freedom. The gun issue gets everyone in a lather, but it is the autonomy of the personal vehicle that defines the potential for the individual to find his true home in society. Eric Peters has been banging this drum for more than a decade over at his blog Eric Peter Auto Blog bringing a deft touch of humor, hard-hitting analysis and a withering critique of not just the car industry itself but also the regulatory nightmare that has turned car ownership from an opportunity into a burden.Show Notes:Eric Peters AutoEric on Twitter

Just noticed in the new fountain update that streaming sats to podcasts with fountain is quite pricey on fees. sending 11 sats to a pod costs 6 sats in fees, that's more than 50%. Switching to boosts to see how that goes. Great rip as usual. cheers

Read_686 - How the IMF and World Bank Repress Poor Countries, Part 4 [Alex Gladstein]
"The “generosity” of the West enabled unaccountable leaders to plunge their nations into debt deeper than ever before. The system was, as Payer writes in “Lent And Lost,” a straightforward Ponzi scheme: the new loans went straight to paying for the old loans. The system needed to grow to avoid collapse." - Alex Gladstein
WERE BACK! We've got a bit of a lengthy introduction today while I mostly apologize and ramble about why I missed more than a weeks worth of episodes, but we are getting back into it with a huge backlog of amazing reads I have been eager to dive into over the holidays! To start us off we are going to conclude the incredible novel, I mean article, by Alex Gladstein on the IMF and World Bank's exploitation of the third world.
We are jumping right into the middle of it, so don't forget to listen to Part 1, 2, & 3 if you haven't yet, otherwise this will be confusing, lol:
