Global namespace extremist. Defragment your communities!
Meanwhile down on earth, you’ve just caused an entirely new class of derrivatives traded on sketchy and unregulated markets, increasing the risk of fraud to all, including small individual investors.
Wealth is finite
The size of the observable universe is ~93 billion light-years. So, you’re technically right, but…
Tough question. I don’t think the descendants of european, asian and african settlers are going back home any time soon.
Sure, advertising your secret plans in public might not be the best idea, regardles of the medium.
From the technical standpoint, internet has never been more secure and private. The amount of plaintext shit that was literally flying over the air just a decade ago was terrifying.
Superman himself is invulnerable, the rest of the world isn’t
Go watch The Boys!
What I like: The effort and persistence of the developers
What I dislike: The ActivityPub protocol.
The value of an art piece is always subjective. The price (closest thing we have to the objective value) is determined by the buyers.
What other mechanism would there be? A committee? That’s a bit nazi for my taste. A popular vote? Look at the election results to see why that might be a bad idea.
The theme is a bit touchy these days, especially in certain small country in eastern europe, where the new minister started to cut subsidies to the art she considers unworthy, obscene and politicized, in favor of art reflecting so called traditional values and national identity. The mere existence of the ministry of culture, established with the most noble goal of supporting art, creates this kind of potential vulnerability.
What are the capitalists doing to prevent you from expressing artistically?
It is one of the most widely used health metrics but also one of the most reviled, because it is used to label people overweight, obese or extremely obese.
That’s like blaming the ruler for labeling you too short or too tall… Can’t we just use the tool for rough assessment, while being aware of its limitations, and be happy about it?
But would the 2 pictures fit together? When you shorten the lens-display distance, you basically zoom in.
You are right my brother in arms, let’s overthrow the cooks! Enough with their bullshit already! Free burgers for everyone! Burgers to the people! People’s burgers!
When thoughts like this trouble me, I simply realize how awesome it is that you can simply summon a burger using the magic box in your pocket. What a great time to be alive!
If my grandma wanted a burger at my age, she would have to wake up early in the morning to catch a good spot in queue in front of the butcher shop.
Lemmy is the ultimate embodiment of a free market.
Certain tools inspire certain behaviors. In other words, all you have is a hammer… Ironically, that’s also a reason commercial platforms resist implementing negative votes.
Changing the tool to better suite it’s purpose is an option, but decentralized networks are inherently resistant to such changes. With the backlog of bugs and missing features this ecosystem has, the developers would not be amused if somebody came up with a new tagging or filtering system.
Sounds like a Babylon 5 character. I vote for Lemmier!
Why do you see a unified image when you open your eyes, even though each part of your visual cortex has access to only a small part of the world? What is special about the wrinkled outer layer of the brain, and what does that have to do with the way that you explore and come to understand the world? Are there new theories of how the brain operates? And in what ways is it doing something very different than current AI? Join Eagleman with guest Jeff Hawkins, theoretician and author of “A Thousand Brains” to dive into Hawkins’ theory of many models running in the brain at once.
Communists and fascist are the conservatives on my side of the planet though. They both appeal on “the good old times, when the world was right”. Both equally glorify physical labor and fight against the intellectualism.
It’s the bullshit of hard work will result in success and money.
That’s funny, because it’s not the liberal leaning folks who glorify the hard labor.
That only confirms my hypothesis that leftists don’t want a system of governance, but mom and dad…
Filthy capitalists, giving people what they want!
Yes, reporting on a success of an individual is practically the same thing as openning the gas valve… Jesus F. Christ !
Remember when only one application at a time could play sound? And then Ubuntu shipped an early build of pulseaudio, and all of a suden no application could play a sound? :P
Makes me appreciate PipeWire so much more.
