If we’re following Marx’s historical materialism (that society has transitions has a society, roughly being feudalism -> capitalism -> socialism -> communism), I think the next best step is a transition from capitalism to socialism is union ownership. Personally, I think worker co-ops and general syndicalism with a competing in a market for the worker owned businesses would be a great in between step that would not involve a crushingly oppressive state. The goal should be to keep it decentralized so one power structure being consumed by corruption doesn’t sink the fleet

Achieving communism thru the state (called vanguard parties) isn’t all that well liked by many types of socialists and communists, especially those of us in the west. A lot of us prefer to take inspiration from mid-1900s labor groups who, while not achieving socialism that we want, created infinitely better working conditions and power dynamics for working class people. Most of the people who ran those organizations were socialists/communists in and of themselves, and they often times relied more upon collective direct action than just electoralism.

ChatGPT is my programming rubber ducky for general stuff

I mean, look at EEE like Microsoft did in the 90s.

Personally, I’m also scared about Linux after Linus dies. They are on a lot of the board as well

I’d also worry about people who have corporate shit on there. Anyone who uses this as a tool should probably delete their chats and change their password, even if you don’t have anything proprietary or ground breaking in there just as a precaution

What about the nb verse though?

I imagine the frequency response curve is going to be a trash heap on these things. Mids? Who needs em?

I believe the judge actually said something to the effect of “they chose to live with him still, and consented to the app”

I’m not a lawyer in the slightest, but wouldn’t stuff like that be grounds for a mistrial?

Ah that makes sense. Didn’t know that thread got that bad.

People who say left unity is a possibility are as dumb as a box of stumps. It’s always interesting going to a tankie place and seeing people with lgbt flair talk up Putin, as if they wouldn’t be shot on sight.

I might be out of the loop - was there something that happened recently?

It won’t be the last time reddit fucks up. And everytime they do, more people will come this way, especially as this place gets better and better

Man, everything is a premium subscription these days. I’m just so done with modern monetization schemes thst nickel and dime. Everything from heated seats in cars to content in games that we’ve already paid for.

Did they ever get around to implementing playlists and autoplay of some sort? I really wanted to get into that service, but the absence of those two things just killed it for me

Those recommend gpu reqs are fucking ridiculous lol. If people are getting anything less that 60 with a 6700xt, then m$ and Bethesda fucked up again.

Also, 125gb? What the fuck?

If you’re on desktop, I made a style that uses the Stylus add on help the UI not look like shit

Not the first time reddit has gone done, but the timing sure is suspicious

yea, kbin is definitely less active

We really need an instance that only has communities made from the cat subs

That’s exactly how I feel. Even just the way comments were structured was weird, let alone the idea of subreddits

It seems people are landing all over the place. I’m seeing raddle.me, tild.es, here, and discord being the main options.

I honestly don’t get why discord is getting looked at. It’s a huge company that you don’t really want to trust with stuff either, and it’s not even a forum ffs
