Please don’t conflate markets, products and services with capitalism. That’s yee old liberal con. Capitalism is a modern invention and it’s all about speculation, non-existent liquidity, shell and shelf companies and bringing back usury run amok, what would have people burned at the stake during Jesus times.
No, I live in the Nordics. We actually still have ethical and moral businesses, manners and decentralised industries, but liberalism is working to change that.
Also, markets and money isn’t capitalism - despite what your think tanks and oligarchs have rammed down your throat. But people here are also falling for the okeydoke.
But I wouldn’t expect a dumbass tankie to know anything about that. I’m guessing you’re a tankie on account of how aggressive and condescending you are.
ARE YOU A FUCKING IDIOT?!? They wanted to commit FUCKING CULTURAL GENOCIDE ON MY PEOPLE, YOU STUPID FUCK!! Their perverse and warped ideology would have wiped my country’s culture of the map. Go die in a ditch, you dumb ugly American.
Fuck this platform. You can have it. Lemmy is trash.
If it were up to the lawyers and capitalists and not open source responding to it you’d still be paying to copy files. Imagine that? A subscription for basic utility, and removing it did not “impede competition” or “remove incentive”.
But hey, if you want to, I could rig your phone and computer to pay me a dollar every time you copy or move a file, ya’know, since you’re in to that stuff.
Future software is going to be written by AI, no matter how much you would like to avoid that.
My speculation is that we will see AI operating systems at some point, due to the extreme effectiveness of future AI to hack and otherwise subvert frameworks, services, libraries and even protocols.
So mutating protocols will become a thing, whereby AI will change and negotiate protocols on the fly, as a war rages between defensive AI and offensive AI. There will be shared codebase, but a clear distinction of the objective at hand.
That’s why we need more open source AI solutions and less proprietary solutions, because whoever controls the AI will be controlling the digital world - be it you or some fat cat sitting on a Smaug hill of money.
EDIT: gawdDAMN there’s a lot of naysayers. I’m not talking stable diffusion here, guys. I’m talking about automated attacks and self developing software, when computing and computer networking reaches a point of AI supremacy. This isn’t new speculation. It’s coming fo dat ass, in maybe a generation or two… or more…
Awwww =3 poor widdle doom scroller. Is there too much politics? Well tough tits, youngin! Everything is political and you should be able to accept it popping up everywhere.
As for fatigue from politics that try to subvert and enrage you, have you tried not listening to said politics? What? You watch Tucker Carlson?! GTFO here…
It should be everyone’s duty to pee in the sink, as an expression of freedom from the radical left, that each man, woman and child release a golden stream of liberty into the bowl of degeneracy.
Therefore it’s important to always remember: piss in the sink, but don’t sink in the piss.
Tbh i hate the mirror universe now… from being a not-so-serious in-joke that came back every now and then, not as much as nudging the timeline, plot or characters into any too serious a direction, to becoming an important part of cannon that I just don’t like… mostly because of Discovery and Picard.
It’s really just too cheesy. Alternative universes, by all means, but just a mirror universe where there’s a bit of a role reversal which stems from can only be described as “a trend in the 70s”.
Mirror this, bizarro that, cod sarn it. To call it a gimmick is a bit of an understatement. To call it cannon is a bit embarrassing.
Now excuse me, I’ve ranted about Star Trek on the interwebz, so now I have to go fulfill the government mandated 3 hours of grass touching.
There’s something I’d like to call “the Bethesda” bar. It’s basically an industrial bar lower than most. Let’s define what that means:
releasing the same game over and over
make games so buggy that a release with only a couple hundred of glitches is deemed "polished*
ignore progressive development for things like NPC AI
put all the money in marketing and hype
make the user think they’re getting something new, rather than just another boilerplate game
I’m sure the story writers did some characters justice, but I won’t be playing this game - especially since Bethesda claims it “can’t run on older hardware”, despite the fact that modders are proving them wrong.
The Betheada bar is a cancer upon the industry and I view it as consumer facing psy-ops, relying on brain-dead fanboys with nothing going on in their lives to squeal with glee as a new AAA-title is released to fill that void.
Starlink was subsidized, so he’d better know what side he’s on. I wish there was a clause in the law that forcibly took back subsidies - like aight then, don’t want to fight for liberty abroad? Gimme back that money.
Yeah? How about closing those sweatshops that pollute Chinese rivers, drinking water, that destroys soil so that plants can never grow again, where Chinese works inhale colorant and chemicals… how about that shit, CCP?
The funny thing about this is that the pentagon said no to new tanks, warships and planes several times - because they have enough.
But Congress, neatly and obediently leashed to the weapons industry, suckling at the feet of their masters said no… to the military experts…
Just like when the pentagon said no to Iraq and Afghanistan, Congress said yes…
Because a bunch of liberal (neo or “classical”) demagogues, zealots, shills and spineless bootlickers know better than the military experts… of course.
Being a fan of Diogones the cynic I to hate vanity. Nowhere is this more apparent than in congress or the house of representatives.
Quoteth Diogones: “in a rich man’s home there’s nowhere to spit but his face”, and republicans are trells, slaves to their masters and as vein as the emperor’s New clothes, while pretending to be “rebellious”. A bunch of posers, really.
