I came here from Reddit
I have no idea what I'm doing but I never do xD

I study environmental science and I have interests in cycling, climate action, video games and many other things.

Just like the discourse to sanitise pride so it's family friendly, all this is about is trying to make their platforms "family friendly" to attract advertisers and that's it.

ShesDayDreaming, to bicycles

Does anyone know what is a good cycling computer? All I need is good GPS/mapping features that doesn't connect to my phone what so ever. I don't need fitness functions at all

That's not surprising of a capitalist company

This was also the conclusion of the ONS and TUC union in the UK.

Good news for socialists, I'm an environmental science (and a communist) and throughout all the science I've read and studied on this topic is that degrowth and moving away from our current system is literally talked about a lot. Although they don't specifically say socialism they say things like "global food trade needs to become decentralised and community based".

It's simple there is no reason to work and there's enough of us to say "fuck it" and march to change our system but none of us can organise a piss up in a brewery to save our lives.

We have working class people on their knees to the capitalists saying "yes master anything master"

We have socialists who prefer to talk about socialist philosophy instead of action, we have socialists who want bottom up socialism and others who want top down socialism

We have other people on the left that wants to keep the abusive system in place and we have the rest of the working class who don't care about anything.

The problem is literally capitalism

Why ecosystem collapses may occur much sooner than expected (phys.org)

an ecosystem predicted to collapse in the 2090s owing to the creeping rise of a single source of stress, such as global temperatures, could, in a worst-case scenario, collapse in the 2030s once we factor in other issues like extreme rainfall, pollution, or a sudden spike in natural resource use....

I study environmental science and I can believe it, every model I've used all the sources I've used that predict have been conservative in numbers compared to what's going on.

The problem is we are never going to do what needs to be done because capitalism is the literal cause and the world is addicted to capitalism because none of the companies are going to do what they need to do unless it's profitable.

I wonder what was said in the meeting because wager was steam rolling. It smells like it was preplanned with the Russian state

Ever since the Reddit shitshow a lot of the decent people left leaving the bigots.

No it does not, 70% of emissions is by corporations

Someone decided that 3:30am would be a good idea to do some DIY so I got woken up by hammering, drills and other power tool use from a street over to mine.

What I fear is retaliation from people and government sanctioned culling of the pod :(

No it's not EVs are 60% less polluting than fuel vehicles, it's irrelevant if you buy it used because it's history is part of its impact.

The over arching problem is there's too many vehicles on the road, most people including Americans when they drive only drive up to 3 miles.

ShesDayDreaming, to linux
ShesDayDreaming avatar

I've been using Linux for 2 months and prefer it to windows now. What makes me sad is my uni laptop is windows and it needs to stay windows for the time being and every time I have to use it for anything other than watching movies it annoys me lol

I tried to print something off my laptop and it wasn't recognising my printer and told me to install the drivers again so I got fed up, turned my actual computer on even though its too hot to turn it on and managed to print without any issue.

I'm iffy about Lenin too. Marx and Engels wrote about bottom up socialism but Lenin came along and basically said the working class is too stupid for a socialist revolution and opted for top down socialism which led to authoritarian socialism and state capitalism.

Our neolib capitalist society is top down governance which is why I highly oppose everything that isn't bottom up socialism

Are you also an abolitionist? How do you see abolition and socialism related to another?

For me, it's pretty clear that police and prisons reinforce class society and are things that factor into proletarianization. Therefore there can be no socialism without abolition. A corollary states that socialist projects that reinstituted police and prisons (gulags and checka anyone?) couldn't be socialist because by using...

I'm not sure, I like to think of myself as an abolitionist but the more I think about it the more I can't make my mind up.

I think a socialist society is going to need some form of police or a rapid response service like firefighting, and ambulance to get to emergencies but I don't think this service needs to be wandering the streets like the police does today and also removing what they do to only dealing with violent crimes like someone getting attacked for example everything else they do should be its own service like a mental health response team, a road accident response team etc

Ideally most crime should be "solved" because everyone would and should have all their needs met and a similar start in life with the same opportunities without worrying about if you can afford it or not.

Putin orders creation of psychiatric institute to “study the behavior of LGBT people”, Russian health minister warns of "suicides across the country" (web.archive.org)

On June 14, Russia’s State Duma passed a bill banning surgical operations “aimed at changing a person’s sex” and changing one’s gender marker in legal documents in its first reading. During the session, multiple parties in the Duma vocally criticized the document. After Russia’s Minister of Health Mikhail Murashko...

Quite literally most that are in English are US centric. Second Thought and First Thought does theory and news.

PineTime - a $27 smartwatch that runs open source firmware and software that's easy to flash and easy to modify and tinker with (liliputing.com)

This is the smartwatch I own. True netrunners know that the tech we wear on (or under) our skin is a prime entry vector for ever hungry megacorps to bleed the pulsing data from our digital veins, so having a wearable I have full control over is of paramount importance. I can flash it with new firmware whenever I want, the...

This is a step in the right direction, but because phones are now extremely sophisticated they frequent need security updates, but phone manufacturers only support a phone for about 3 years that also needs tackling because that will also help reduce ewaste.

Omg I remember watching all the horrific graphic PSAs in school got to the point that little me was too scared to go near train stations

Yes it cannot be saved because by nature it's contradictory and exploitative, all of the problems are caused by capitalism because without those problems people would be able to question for another system.

Capitalism has already taken away my ability to buy enough food, afford transport etc the people who argue in favour of capitalism always uses the negativity of capitalism and applies it so socialism it's fucking stupid.
