I’m not arguing semantics. “The left” and “authoritarianism” are different things. No one said anything about Democrats or Republicans. You are arguing that this is a problem with “the left”. If you want to argue that this is a problem with Democrats or with authoritarianism in the either party specifically, that’s a separate topic–one that I agree with.
What do you mean “the left”? The farther left you go, the more people see firearms as important for the people to fight oppression. Karl Marx—pretty much as far left as you can go—was very adament about wokers owning guns.
I think you are trying to refer to authoritarians.
It sounds like your problem is with capitalism and not AI and automation. You don’t like the extra productivity going towards private institutions rather than the workers they displaced or society as a whole, right?
Try docker compose rather than locally if you are struggling.
I think Bitcoin was a good proof of concept that this system can work and scale. Ethereum is trying to be the viable option. I personally like Monero. I am sure in a hundred years or so if crypto is still here, it will be more viable and stable.
Oh I thought you meant Epstein uses fish.
TIL I am unintentionally boycotting
Source? I’ve seen the bash reference manual in the files
Interesting. I’ve never had any of these issues. It might be because I use a tiling window manager (shoutout Aerospace) instead of Apple’s own window manager. Also, I’ve never really done any development on the mac itself. I just SSH into my Arch Linux server. MacOS is just a frontend to my browser and terminal basically lol. I don’t really care about my laptop’s OS since it’s just a frontend for my server. I just bought whichever laptop was sexiest.
They don’t because they are not allowed to. Valve makes game developers sign a contract that if they want their game on Valve, they cannot put it at a lower price on any other store.
What is wrong with Mac? I find macOS to be very clean and nice. I find it similar to KDE Plasma.
99% don’t know what the Fediverse is. I can’t blame them for jumping ship to Upscrolled since it’s what they have heard of.
Isn’t upscrolled created by a Palestinian? I doubt he’d be okay with censoring a genocide against his people.
If is. It’s free (orI guess libre makes more sense since they are French) under Apache-2.0
Weird. I’ve never had to do this. I also only use FB for marketplace
It doesn’t have to replace thinking if used properly. This is what schools should focus on instead of banning AI and pretending that kids are not going to use it behind closed doors.
For example, I almost exclusively use Gen AI to help me find sources or as a jumping-off point to researching various topics, rather than as a source of truth itself (because it is not one). This is super useful as it automates away the tedious parts of finding the right research papers to start learning something and gives me more time to focus on my actual literature review.
If we ban AI in schools instead of embrace it with caution, students won’t know how to learn skills in order to use it effectively. They’ll just start offloading their thinking to AI when doing homework.
Interesting. The US is definitely not doing a good job at this then and needs to re-vamp their education system. Your example didn’t convince me that calculators are bad for students, but rather than the US schooling system is really bad if they introduce calculators so early that students don’t even have an intuition of 9 * 25 = (10-1) * 25 = 250-25.
Hey, this is called the Nirvana logical fallacy. Just because I do other unethical things in my life, that doesn’t mean buying an ethical ETF instead of a normal ETF is useless.
For example, using the Nirvana logical fallacy, I could justify not going to the gym today because I already ate unhealthy food for lunch. It is impossible to be live a perfectly healthy life, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t focus on trying to be as healthy as possible within the confines of what we are willing to sacrifice.
Same thing goes for living an ethical lifestyle.
Hope this helps!
That shouldn’t matter. This is a huge gripe I have with FOSS in its current state. Most of the freedom/privacy/security respecting apps are not noob friendly. They are designed for tech bros and you have to download them from a git instance or F-Droid. Freedom is a human right. It should not be gatekept to the technology savy.
This is why I love the Signal Foundation. They have truly beautifully written software and they have easy to follow UX. Anyone can enjoy the added benefits to their freedoms, security, and privacy without ever having to think about it.
I have found more websites refuse to load with Mullvad VPN than when I use Proton VPN. I use Mullvad on my phone since it’s the only one that is able to be used while I also use Tailscale VPN at the same time on Android.
