  • Thanks, that was spund advice. I do like my keyboard, but I always bottom the key still. The "step" of 45g is still to subtle to me to register reliably.

    I went back to my old keyboard and I like the feel more for typing still.

    But I want to run an advanced open source firmware in my keyboard and have individual leds to tell me what state/layer that keyboard is in.

  • If only they remained small competing cells. But nearly always grows more and eat the others. Then the big cells say they have to make their employees piss in bottles to survive. They use the arguments of what small cells do to survive to justify the business model that made them huge and allowed them to kill all the small cells.

    It's an arms race dynamic of cut-throatedness where the biggest bastard is favored to win.

    What a shit system. What a terrible and disgusting infection of the human mind.

  • Well creating an opposibg empire didn't work out so great.

    Capitalism is a belief system, you can't beat ideas with guns.

    There's not going to be an anti-imperialist empire that successfully ends imperialism.

    It exist only because it's population is cajoled into accepting it as the only viable, profitable option.

    Concentration of power is the social disease, it creates a "all the eggs in one basket" situation where one bandit can seize control of the whole.

    It is a strange paradox that a society built on individual responsibility would be corrupted and usurped by its cooperation mechanism. And that the path to a semblance of decency is to cut down on cooperation to disempower those at the grotesque top.

    And then maintain taboos to prevent tge concentrations fromvforming again. BECAUSE they are too profitable and power.

    Make CEO a crime, make presidents weak, cut off the heads of kings.

  • Mores against concentrations of power, the folk wisdom to spot and unwind them and a taboo against abyone concentrating inordinate power onto their persons. A rejection of collaboration with those who wield leverage to orchestrate others intobdoing their bidding. A taboo against the trade of a human's future labour profits. A taboo against non-working shareholders or any third party get a cut of profits. Destroy stock markets.

  • I think breaking down concentrations of power a returning it directly to those most affected by it on a local basis aligns more with that stated goals. I think utopian communism obscures the attainable and effective ways of morphing the structure of our political reality.

  • What he means is the commulists still want to dominate workers for their own good, when they say "own the means of production" they are not going to let the actual workers do the owning. The commulists will own tge means of production on behalf of the workers instead of the current parasites.

    Cooperatives would put the actual power in the hands of the workers and would stop external forces from directly interfering into their affairs and telling them how to work or what to work on or why.

  • Turnabout fucking sucks.

    Way more go wrong than lights, increase car to car interactions massively, inappropriate european fad. This for place that don't mind getting bog down doing more than an hour to get 50km away because they don't have important things to do

  • Bevause we are letting our guard down from psychopaths, seduced by their money and submissive toward them to get some. Reduced to prostitutes on our knees to please them for rewards they convince us to crave while using our pension funds so they can take bet on exploitating us more.

  • He's such an awful, ghoulish vampire, him, the oracle guy and the paypal mafia. Why are these people taken more seriously than senile crackheads like they're USA presidents.

    They belong in mental asylums with mouth gags permanently attached to contain their mental poison.

  • Yes I agree the political compass as a political framework pushes assumptions embedded in it's structure that reify power itself.

    The political compass and "leftrightism" are the same kind of political meta-weapons. Structure that anchor a political understanding and prepare the terrain to amplify those forms of power that understand the world through an austere and reductive model.

    This disempowers exactly the kind of people most vulnerable to the concentrations of power that the framework seeks to highlight but because tge framework is so reductive it weakens its users by obscuring political reality.

    We need better ways to understand political realities of the world to counter them with the sufficient and required nuance.
