Night of Brazilian Elections
Tomorrow is first round of the Brazilian election. We'll see how it goes, from where it is now it's looking like Lula is going down. It's almost certain that this is going to a second round though. Hopefully everything goes smoothly and doesn't impact me that much whoever wins. More importantly, I've been working on Phoebus OS. I still have a long way to go, but it's decently coming along. I got an installer cobbled together, decided to go with MangoWM with DarkMaterialShell, have an assistant that still needs some ironing out. I also need to figure out secure boot. I might just decide to forget it and go without. But I'm trying to make it so it just follows upstream Gentoo and doesn't require maintaining packages. I'm gonna create a website soon I think, will probably just use os.phoebus.club for it. Testing it is a major pain in the arse though cause of the compiling. Without AI a project like this would be nigh impossible.
But I've been feeling okay lately. Not great, not terrible. Might have shared a bit too much with someone. Probably brought it on myself. I just can't see the American government as more righteous than the Chinese one or Arab ones. To me they're just equally wretched. No matter how you look at it, creating such vile schools isn't a society with any moral high ground. Somehow he thinks America is the best on Earth and connected it theologically that rubbed me the wrong way. Couldn't even bring myself to respond.
Is wanting freedom really so bad? Trump isn't gonna save me, Bolsonaro isn't gonna save me, Farage isn't gonna save me. Voting isn't gonna save me, canvassing isn't gonna save me, etc. Maybe it's just a generational difference. I wouldn't even go so far to claim other societies are overall superior, but I'm looking for something that's superior for me, because I am an individual not a society. For what I want to do there seems to be better opportunities outside of America. I also want an escape route from America if things really ever go to shit. I don't see the country as stable. It's stupid to just be constantly raging at Demon Rats. You need to figure out defense mechanisms to minimize their harm on you.
I don't feel that much attachment to the US. I'll be loyal to whoever pays me as far as I'm concerned. Somebody wants to sponsor me then they have my loyalty. That's how I see things.
