  • One of my favorite lines from early on in trumps rise to cult leader was "Conservatives would let Trump shit in their mouth just to watch liberals become disgusted"

  • I feel like I'm having a conversation with a speak and spin that has one response lol

  • No, it doesn't fight fascism. If you have a socialist country there are things about the system that inherently make it harder for fascism to pop up, but this is prevention. Also if fascism is already in your country, socialism isn't doing a god damn thing because it doesn't exist.

    Socialism is preventative care on a healthy or mildly sick system, it is not the major surgery needed to remove active cancer.

  • This needs to be made more visible on github, like a little tag near all the share data under about. But I guess the only way that would work was people self reporting their CLA's. And not sure how keen microsoft would be on a consumer protection change

  • Over 20 years ago I started to see the many problems with the world. Over the course of those ~20 years I saw more and more problems begin, none of them are ever resolved. There was a point where I believed I wouldn't live long enough to see the full ramifications, but now it seems like those problems are compounding faster and faster.

  • I agree with you entirely except for this.

    “Congress is deciding if {company} will be banned” is something we should have all picked up on as being absurd and unacceptable

    People are out their believing Elon's Nazi salute was an "Accidentally awkward gesture". If we are talking about stuff likely for people to notice, then the difference between "congress bans company" and "congress bans an action" might as well be invisible and only exist in the 7th dimension lol.

    We have been post critical thinking in the US since around the time that facebook did what morning talk radio was doing but better. We decide everything on feels now, reason has ceased to exist.

  • How would you determine if a thing is true open source, or capitalism masquerading as open source like you've described, if you were to just stumble onto a software randomly and wanted to check?

  • How does this fix a two party system that does not represent the people?

  • This would be a goal, socialism is not an action to fight fascism.

  • Dividing the people through wedge issues.

  • Because making the is better is not how they make money. Thats why all the changes they do make are forcing to use their shit programs and collect your data. The answer is always capitalism.

  • He obviously said that. How can you be smug that he agreed with you about the idea of it? Jesus Christ you are addicted to the idea you're the smartest one in the room aren't you... :D

  • That sounds like an SNL sketch of a sexual harassment in the workplace training video

  • Tiktoks removel is not a distraction from oligarchy, it is oligarchy in action. This is meta collecting on what they paid congress for.

  • Love what your saying enough I wanna try to rephrase it for extra zing.

    "Billionaire toddler virtue signaling to wannabe Fascist leader angry to be facing repercussions"

  • I have decided that this tweet is about making nice with the huge tank looking for targets. I love proton, I really want this to be the truth so im going to pretend it is, since we cant prove its not.

  • Thats not always the reason why a platform monetizes poorly, thats the most common reason, but there is always room for people to get greedy and begin demanding short term profits, being privatly held is a decent barrier to this process though.

    Yes capitalism is a shit garbage system, steam got lucky and started their platform before others noticed the market would exist and could grow organically. The root of enshittification is that is how the game is played today; a few companies all have to operate at losses in a game of "investment capital runway chicken" to attempt to become a monopoly and then rug pull their user base to monetize.

    Can you imagine a world where governments gave 2 shits about their people, identified this as a losing game plan for the world, and came up with some form of legislation against this kind of market nonsense. Fuck it would be awesome to see real businesses growing naturally off of success, and not synthetically off of capital. Yes I realize that wont happen. God damnit i fucking hate unregulated capitalism.

  • Thank you for the insightful response! Its sad that the cheapest option is the only choice ever chosen, sounds like we could create jobs and foster better security choices simultaneously here (and probably end up with a better online experience to boot).

  • I am an idiot, so this is probably a dumb question, but it sounds like you might be able to shine some light.

    Why could we not run kernel level anticheat in a sandbox? Does kernel level inherently mean a sandbox cannot contain it?

    As an aside is kernel level anticheat required for anti-cheat to function? Or are the developers of anti-cheat software just doing kernel level because its easier?

  • So steam has had 20 years to enshitify, in that time they have always remained a privately held company and have made choices to ensure long term growth. I imagine at some point (like after gaben hands over control) they could go public and obtain their very own collection of worthless bloodsucking vampires, but i imagine that would be quite awhile, and hopefully by then they will have removed windows death grip from gamers throats.
