  • Except tankies are authoritarians, and some even support the CCP, who are basically a dictatorship. How is this left wing again?

    I am not going to say that tankies are right wing like this guy you’re replying to. What they are is confused people who tried to join the left for the wrong reasons and ended up becoming authoritarians because of it. That or you fell into a cult-like group that spreads misinformation.

    Also Tankies saying they like liberals is a new one to me. Normally they like complaining about liberals. I’ve been called a liberal for some of the most asinine shit imaginable, basically just because I don’t immediately agree with them.



  • But to think that our government, should it become communist, should be allowed to kill people in order to maintain a socialist or communist society is just straight up wrong and as far as I know that’s what a tankie is, someone who thinks that Tiananmen Square and Stalin’s reign of terror was just a necessary evil in order to strengthen the communist societal norm.

    All governments kill people. That’s what governments do, specifically militaries do. I don’t think it’s necessarily wrong for a socialist or communist nation to defend itself. What’s wrong is countries killing peaceful protesters for no other reason than vocally disagreeing with them. That’s what makes Tiananmen Square and Stalin wrong, not just that they killed people.



  • That’s not what’s happening here. Not all marxists are okay with covering up Tiananmen Square or supporting the CCP. I used to be part of a Trotskyist org and they wouldn’t be caught dead supporting either Stalin or the CCP. Anarchists certainly aren’t okay with it, and they are further left than you are. Stop pretending all your enemies are liberals.

    This post is massive misinformation. They claimed to be “Irish and Scotish” yet they were born in America. It’s classic Americans pretending to be something they aren’t to make themselves sound cooler, because it’s not cool to be American. They then start claiming they are descended from British royalty and all sorts of things. They took that comment out of context to make me look like the bad guy. Also tried saying they had stronger blood than me or some shit. It’s mental.









  • AMBA/AXI-bus in the case of the Pi. GPUs existed long before PCIe did lol.

    One some x86 systems the CPU and GPU aren’t connected with PCIe either. AMD has infinity fabric that they use for things like the Instinct MI300 and some of their other APUs

    Edit: Oh yeah also ARM isn’t just low power anymore. It’s used in data centers and super computers these days. Even if it was there is lots of stuff you can do with a low power node, including running file servers, DNS or Pi hole, web servers, torrent/usenet downloaders, image and music servers, etc. I have also seen them used to maintain cluster quorum after loss of one more powerful node. A two node cluster won’t have quorum if one fails, so adding a pi as a third node makes sense.


  • Not all of them. Have a look at a Raspberry Pi or Apple Silicon devices. In fact most ARM SoCs I am fairly sure don’t use PCIe for their iGPUs. This makes sense when you think about the unified memory architecture some of these devices use. Just in case you aren’t aware Proxmox does indeed run on a raspberry pi, and I am sure they will gain support for more ARM devices in the future. Though I believe an x86 device with unified memory could also have problems here.
