There was a recentish model, qwen next that was advertised as smth that can be run entirely on RAM.

Nope, its worse. 1$ is worth far more in a poor person’s pocket than a rich one. Taxation atleast tries to be more fair by taxing based on income.

I just think it is more efficient to say ‘huh?’ Than to attempt at answering incorrectly. If the brain can figure out the question, with enough context, you can just answer it before they repeat. Otherwise you just have to listen again.

I think our brain already figured this out and do this on its own

Abundance comes from advancement of tech and tools, not just from labour.

If only the “40 hours a week” people deserve to live outside poverty then this exclude many other people who are without a doubt productive for society and even capital.

Many scholars never got money from their contributions, they didn’t even get recognition within their life. They for sure contributed positively to the society. Yet their works was not included in “40 hrs work week”.

Housewives also provide labour without which the society can not function, they are also within this categories.

Open source devs also don’t get paid for their work. Yet their hobby does in fact lead to productivity.

By restricting our definition to “40 hrs work week”, we overlook many of these segments.

Consider an example of a women, who does not work but raises childern and perform other chores to support her husband.

She is quite important in contribution to the society, but when we talk just about working people, we overlook her.

And I am sure there are many such people who are critical for the function of the society, but do not “make money” (i,e wage labor nor even owning capital for that matter)

This is why, IMO, this distinction of “people who work” is counter productive. Everyone should be able to live without poverty.

If only there were some security researchers who routinely release and audit open source implementations of encryption and data safety programs.

The world would be so much better if people just trusted for-profit organizations instead of actual humans. Cuz all our modern crises like climate change, pfas in water and other ecological crises were caused by individual humans. Not these shareholder backed for profit organizations

Taxing incomes only put the burden back on the working people. Rich will always find loopholes to avoid tax. Whether through subsidies or off shore companies.

If we have to stay within the system, we should be implementing wealth tax instead of incomen tax. But it still leaves the option of foreign citizenship and they just owning stuff in a country without wealth tax

There are 2 parts when it comes to changing the system:

1. People’s consciousness needs to be aware on the necessity of the change in the system.
2. Actual revolution.

Saying statements that call to action may not be doing 2 but they still help with 1

Doesn’t this kinda breeds complacency? By framing it as just a social construct, aren’t we indrectly telling ourselves, in order to fix gender inequality, we just need to change the social discourse? Which completely ignores the politico-economics reality.

IMO most people already believe gender i equality is bad (atleast in west that is) but inequal gender practices still persist today.

Not to mention the economic forces (like elon musk) uses political forces (like MAGA or AfD) to further such inequalities for their own benefits.

Surveilence

Not to mention, their chairmen alice weidel praises past while having a literal nazi grandfather. Iirc she literally said “the time of our grandparents was so great…”

Monopolies are bad, educate yourself before talking about something you have no clue about.

They had to wait, in case palestinian had means of resistence. Surely you wouldn’t want to support terrorists! /s

I think jamming all radio everywhere would be kinda difficult, but im not an expert in this. I just said it cuz many governments, when they want to censor everything, they disable all internet going out the country. Also i find the idea cool 😅.

As for encryption, i think if you can learn to set up meshtastic, then it should be trivial to also add encryption to it.

India also trys to mirror israel in kashmir btw. Similar tactics to annex land.
