hi miss healed, could you elaborate what you mean by dictatorship/authoritarian not being useful/meaningful terms? i know they're terms the west likes to tack on its political enemies, but i thought it might be a case of just misuse of terms that can still be useful, rather than outright a problem with the concept itself, so id be interested to understand your opinion. thanks!
so i don't think 'authoritarian' has any useful analytical value because every state is 'authoritarian' -- the only metrics by which one state might be seen as less 'authoritarian' than another are the metrics which privilege liberal democracy and a free market as a meaningful sort of 'freedom', which as a marxist, i don't! every state is an institution for class suppression--in the state and revolution, lenin quotes engels as saying:
[...] it is sheer nonsense to talk of a 'free people's state'; so long as the proletariat still needs the state, it does not need it in the interests of freedom but in order to holddown its adversaries, and as soon as it becomes possible to speak of freedom the state as such ceases to exist.
every state uses violence to perpetuate and legitimize itself. there is no state that would let you march into the capital and declare its dissolution without deploying armed men against you -- every state is authoritarian, it excercises authority, this is a tautological statement about how states maintain their own existence.
and sure, you could then say 'well we can just call all states authoritarian', but i don't think that makes any sense. the criticism of a state 'authoritarian/totalitarian' implies that there is an alternative, a point of comparison against which the state comes short--and i simply don't think it's possible to use 'authoritarian' as a cogent criticism without having such a point of comparison (usually the US or some european liberal democracy) which in turn means buying into liberal & capitalist ideas about 'freedom'.
as for 'dictator', i have a different criticism of that, also stemming from my marxist perspective. basically, i just think it doesn't describe anything useful in terms of political analysis and massively overemphasizes the role of individual psychology and personality. i frequently criticize both anticommunist and 'stalinist' views of stalin by joking that he must have been a very busy man if he singlehandedly ate all the grain or killed all the nazis. which is obviously a glib way of putting it--but my point is that any dictator who has ever 'done anything' could only do it because they could order a government official to do it who in turn could order a department to do it that could in turn mobilize hundreds or thousands of soldiers/construction workers/bureaucrats/etc. in order to make that happen.
sure, the leaders of countries might make decisions, and in some systems an individual leader might have greater leeway than others. but there are always very clear hard limits about what they must do and what they cannot do. i am sure i can say pretty uncontroversially that mohammad bin salman has an extreme level of political control over the economy and government of saudi arabia, but if he woke up tomorrow and said 'good news everyone, we're converting the country to wicca and donating all our oil to iran' then that would not happen and he would be deposed instantly. for a more realistic example, imagine any 'dictator' of your choice saying 'well, it's time to massively defund the military' -- this would be completely fucking impossible without some kind of loyalist paramilitary organization (which then exerts its own forces upon the 'dictator'.)
and of course all that leaves aside the massive extent to which 'dictator' is politically charged. do i think that vladimir putin was democratically elected? obviously not! but i don't think that any US president has been in any meaningful sense 'elected' by anything other than capital either, and two of the last four straightforwardly lost a popular vote even by the standards of liberal democracy! i think that any political system is best analyzed in class terms, in terms of what interests the government serves in terms of class struggle and competition between global capitalists, rather than in terms of individuals or what formal power structures give out the fancy titles
tldr: as a marxist, i think that 'authoritarian' is a useless distinguisher because excercising authority is the sole purpose and function of a state -- 'dictator' is a useless distinguisher because even the most autocratic fiefdom-state is ultimately a class dictatorship first and foremost

"Flames shot from the nozzles of the Space Shuttle's three engines during the successful 20-second static firing, which capped a formal rehearsal for the maiden flight of Columbia, scheduled for early April. The milestone event took place at 8:45 a.m. on Feb. 20, 1981. The three main engines reached 100 percent power - over 1 million pounds of thrust - during the test. Holddown bolts secured the vehicle to its mobile launcher platform."

Saving Putty Sessions To A Log File
Putty may be a broadly utilized, free, apparatus to SSH/Telnet/Console/etc into a arrange gadget. I can't review how numerous times I've burned myself because I fat-fingered the console and after that misplaced my association to the network device or misconfigured an interface and not realize it for one or two of days. Or what in the event that you needed to keep in mind what you did a handful of months back on a switch? Then on the left pane, click on Logging under Session. Under the Session Logging section, select "All session output" For the log file name, use this structure: &H-&Y&M&D-&T.log &H - This will append the hostname of the device to the front of the file. &Y&M&D - This adds the year, month, and day. &T - This adds the time you logged into the device. Click on browse to save it to a specific location. Log file will then look like: 192.168.1.1-20131024-075505.log Go back to the Session window, click on Default Settings, and click Save. So next time you open Putty or create a new saved session, it will create the log file. Let's see it in action. I'm going to create a new saved session for the ATT Looking Glass route server: Let's take a look at Google's BGP routes Here is the contents of that log: ----------- PuTTY log 2013.10.24 07:58:42 -------------- ---- route-server.ip.att.net ---- The information available through route-server.ip.att.net is offered by AT&T's Internet engineering organization to the Internet community.

It is my firm belief that building #guardretention #guardrecovery #pinescapes #bjjescapes recovery and prevention drills before a full #oseikomi or pin/ #holddown occurs is one of the most efficient ways of paving #bjjfundamentals that will follow a students #bjjjourney from white to black and beyond. #bjj #bjjescapes #bjjdrills #bjjnogi #bjjlifestyle #bjjtechnique #judo #wrestling #ontariotopteambrazilianjiujitsuandmuaythai #globalmartialartsacademy (at Global Martial Arts Academy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1rdGDCHABl/?igshid=j1vohbhk42q2

I changed the battery in my car.
My car wouldn't started when the temperature was below -5 and I had to get boosts from my roommates. So I decided to visit Canadian Tire and fix this. First, I had to get my wrenches out of my toolbox in the shed out back but its doors were iced in. After chipping away at it for 15 minutes, I was able to pry the door open enough to to squeeze in. I found my toolbox, on the top shelf, in the very back, behind the snowblower, lawnmowers, bicycles, wheelbarrows, and some apparatus with black steel tubes and plastic wheels. Unfortunately it is to heavy to lift, so I had to open it and feel around inside for what I wanted. The first thing I had to do was remove the tray because the wrenches were under it. The problem was the toolbox was pushed all the way back to the back wall. This meant I could not open the lid all the way up. I had to hold the lid up with one hand while sliding the tray out with the other, while trying not to tilt it so it drop anything out of it. And did I mention I was balancing myself on top of a lower shelf and a wheel of a lawnmower while doing this?
I got the tray out and then I had to feel around inside the toolbox because it was higher than I was. I found my small socket set but I couldn't find my open-end wrenches. 🙁 I decided that the socket set and the vice-grips I grabbed would be good enough. So, I set them aside and carefully manoeuvred the tray back into the toolbox so I could close everything back up again. After some tongue holding, I got everything back, got a boost from my roommates (I did mentioned my car needed a boost in the cold) and set out to Canadian Tire to buy a new battery.
After buying the new battery, I got my hood open and my wrenches out and started the disassembly. Getting the terminals off the old battery was easy. I got the positive one off with the sockets but there wasn't enough room for it at the negative one so I used my vice-grips.Then I had to remove the battery holddown. I got the socket on it but there wasn't much room for it to turn. And being a small socket set, its extension wasn't high enough to clear the battery and the rest of the engine. It only had about 10° of space to turn. And it was rusted in. And did I mention the racket was only 10 inches long?
So I held the socket in place with one hand and pushed really hard with the other. Nothing. Not to be deterred, I braced myself against the car and pushed really, really hard. A little movement. Backed the racket up, took a deep breath, and pushed really, really hard. A little movement. Did it again. A loud crack. Surely it will get easier from now on. Won't it?
Back the racket, push hard, a little movement. Repeat. Repeat. Say some cuss words. Repeat. Repeat. Say more cuss words. Repeat. About now my fibro was kicking in and my back was beginning to hurt. Repeat. Say some cuss words. Repeat. Say some cuss words. Repeat. Invent some cuss words. Repeat. Now my fibro was into my calves. Repeat. Got really inventive with cuss words. Repeat. More words. Repeat.
After 45 minutes of finding new ways to cuss, got the holddown off. Remove the old battery. Put in the new one. Put in and tighten the holddown. Reconnect the terminals. Replace the covers and clear the engine bay. Turn the key and it starts. 🙂
It took too long and was too painful but it's done. Going to pay for it tomorrow. So I stopped at the Beer Store on the way home. For medicinal purposes. Yeah that's it, medicinal purposes. 🙂
