While contributing is great, the BSDs are kinda dying and it’s probably better to spend that effort elsewhere. Even TrueNAS is leaving the BSD space. The fact that most applications are shipping via docker/Flatpak/snap etc. and that BSD does not have a good solution for those does not bode well for BSD.
There just really isn’t that much development for BSD anymore. Everyone who wasn’t on Linux is moving over to it.
How does that work when all of the production happens in other countries now? Is there some scenario where we have a socialist white collar economy? All the rhetoric surrounding Communism fits a blue collar economy where production is still the key driver of the economy. Most “1st world” economies these days are service economies not production economies. Is there some literature on how Communism fits in with a service economy?
The issue is every competitor will use the same targeted ads. No advertiser who is not using targeted ads by utilizing tracking data will never be as competitive because their ads won’t be as effective.
Until we can kill these types of advertising by making laws against it or make tools that counteract them widespread enough that it makes the business unprofitable we will continue to have our data used against us.
These people care more about their “principles” and lack of fundamental understanding of the realities of a first past the post system, than the very real reality of people like us losing our rights.
Everyone who thinks voting 3rd party or staying home is an option is rooted in privilege.
No, it’s because people like you don’t vote in primaries. I vote in every primary for better candidates meanwhile people like you scream how the candidates are awful while staying home during the primaries.
The candidates won’t get better until we grass roots organize and start actually making good candidates popular.
Also I guess losing the majority on SCOTUS and losing abortion rights was just a “hypothetical scenario” when people like you refused to vote for Hillary in 2016?
When will you people learn that, yes, elections have consequences.
Trying to pretend like they might not and Trump might somehow not be worse is being deliberately obtuse and sticking your head in the sand. Wake up and smell the reality.
Please tell me about your hypothetical future where you don’t vote for Biden. Please explain to me what your best case scenario and outcome look like in that situation? Please tell me, what are you working towards?
If you think you’re going to change anything by not voting or voting third party then I have a bridge I’d love to sell you and decades of American history I’d like you to read.
Please explain to me what action you’re going to take and how that’s going to lead to positive change?

Nope, they’d rather scream about “not voting for the lesser of two evils” full well knowing that if they don’t that the likelihood of Trump becoming president and having MUCH worse policies for the Palestinians becomes much greater.
But hey, why care about the realities of a situation when you can scream about principles or something?
Is there so much more he could have done without an act of Congress? We saw from Trump’s presidency that most executive orders do not hold up in court and Congress controls the power of the purse.
Remember how Russia forced Navalny’s plane to land in a different country so they could arrest him? Not that I agree with the action, but it might not be a bad idea for Europeans and Netanyahu. Just sayin’.
I’m assuming they’re North American.
How does this work with local laws regarding 2 party recording? If you’re on a video call and this records the other party without their permission, that is AFAIU illegal in many states in the US. I’m sure in parts of Europe as well.
Yeah that’s not correct, downloading pirated content is still illegal, but it makes no sense for copyright holders to go after 1 person for a movie that costs $20.
You go after the uploader strictly because you can sue for damages for each person/ip they uploaded to. It’s just strictly a monetary and legal thing as to why only the uploaders are taken to court.
Pretty sure even if you block uploads with your torrent client you will still get a DMCA for downloading from a public tracker.

Lol wut, they never claimed servers were independently controlled. Maybe you just didn’t look into what you were signing up for.
When you go use different servers on Minecraft realms are you under any impression those are not controlled by Microsoft?
When you choose a different server on World of Warcraft do you think it’s a non-blizzard server?..
Like just because you put yourself into a state of bad false assumptions didn’t mean they tried to trick you. People have been saying this about discord from the beginning you just never cared to look.
Did you actually think this or are you just inventing a person in your mind that this has happened to? Lol
Cable TV exists
Customers hate it and people start pirating
Netflix comes around, other streaming services
People happy, piracy goes down
Streaming services go back to the way cable was, increased prices, reduced content, started bundling shit you don’t want.
Customers start pirating again
Surprised Pikachu face
If you wanna help your case stop referring to women as “females”. It makes them sound like objects.
And how much did it save by hiring the minors? Cost of doing business…
Yeah actually it was a Belarusian journalist, Roman Protasevich.
