Every day we’re here just to learn billionaires & families should be crushed and their wealth redistributed amongst third world countries.

Yup, the problem is firmly the system, but suggesting a worldwide change to socialism/communism is less “palatable” and believable by the average person.

So “eat the rich” is a decent compromise for a comment not intended to approach any sort of complex answer, while still being a move in a better direction than suggesting things to continue as they are.

Redistributing the wealth of billionaires is already part of a good structural change, it’ll remove from them power they’d use to continue the exploitation of the people. You can substitute “crush” by destitute and incarcerate them if you’d prefer, as long as the wealth isn’t on the hands of the few anymore.

That’s not from bad apps… If anything this new policy will make me use the mobile website instead of the app.

I’d also consider switching banks if it isn’t too much of a hassle. They clearly can’t invest well in terms of security for their users.

If we account to impacts on wildlife as well, there’s displacement of species, stressors to local fauna, and the innumerable roadkills as well

While I agree, corporations shouldn’t make bucks on knowledge(sorta) they basically eavesdropped and violated the privacy of millions of people for.

AI solutions are made from people’s ideas, and should be freely accessible by the people by definition. It not being sustainable as a business model is also a feature in this case, since there’d be no intrinsic incentive to steal data and violate privacy.

Overwork is also one form of workplace abuse. It just makes the matters worse

I’ll be amazed if he doesn’t fuck it up by eventually blowing up and deflect accusations on his podcast in the next 3 months or so. I’d (almost) give him a prize if he coils hold it up for this long.

So damn based. Makes me NOT wanna pirate their games. Hell, I’d even purchase even if I wouldn’t play it (if I could rn, but currently I’ve got hefty cat veterinary bills to pay).

Edit: OH MATE! THEY’RE THE POSTAL STUDIO! Goddamn I played it so damn much in my early teens. Goddamn I gotta pay my bills faster!

I did it the moment they decided not to defederate from Meta. I don’t like admins who can’t take decisive actions to protect their users (and apparently seem to bend their knees to any big corpo out there)

Lemmy is advancing so much and so fast even Spez has competition rising up to the challenge.

I don’t have any issues about lemmy.world existing though, it keeps some users I wouldn’t like very much farther away from me. I consider it as a “buffer zone” of sorts.

Almost like an “intentional and kinda aggressive lib takeover”. I wouldn’t put it past the admins to try monetizing their users at some point.

Unfortunately:

1. half of zero is still zero, and
2. since one can’t go below 0HP there’s no HP pool to take health from.

As someone who had to DM more than I’d like, no dice, mate.

In 2014, Brazil, the coup on Dilma Roussef from the Worker’s Party received backing from the USA. In 2018, the unlawful conviction of Lula from the same party, was not only backed but also had strategical support from the USA through instructions on how then judge Sergio Moro should conduct the trial and how he should work with and favour the prosecution, even by the use of fake witnesses and evidence.

They also had the heaviest of hands against Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela a few years later.

So the USA never stopped meddling and forcing their way on South America, really.

It’s not necessary to have a military base or troops in order to threaten the sovereignty of a country. This is not only a bad faith argument, but it’s incredibly braindead as well.

And if you’re insistent on semantics, yes, the USA deployed troops for a “joint training” with Brazilian troops during (far-right USA backed) Bolsonaro’s government.

By far it’s Kate, even though I’m now a neovim user. It’s just a great IDE.

Adding to the suggestion (and as a recent neovim user) it’s good to do the tutorial (typing “:Tutor”) on a “naked vim” before using a ready-made setup. I’m using AstroNvim and enjoying it so far, the custom shortcuts clicked with me

Maybe the dosage you’re taking is a bit too high for your case, either that, or you already have an anxiety condition that is worsened by ADHD medication.

The ethically correct way to use data collection is to the contract being explicitly opt-IN though. Zoom is providing the barest of minimums

I agree with what’s gonna happen. At the same time, I guess Mozilla won’t make it hard for “Google’s web DRM” to be either toggled off via user config, or sandboxed from user data. They have interest in catering to people fed up with Google’s constant privacy invasions, so I’m currently waiting to see their next actions with moderate confidence and a healthy dose of skepticism as well.
