I ONLY buy games when they're on sale on steam, and they need to be like 60% off for me to even consider it

critics have warned early evidence from Australia shows the ban fails to keep children off social media platforms and risks pushing children into less regulated spaces on the internet.

NO FUCKING SHIT SHIRLOCK!

What these Boomer polititions fail to realise is that the under 16 year olds are far more tech literate than they are, and the younger generation has been conditioned to believe that irl socialisation is risky and online life/status is paramount. You can't just pull the rug from under these kids, you have to actually teach better behaviours that form allow kids to form better habbits and relationships with technology, and with other humans.

Anyone that has an anxiety attack from the thought of talking to someone face to face or over the phone needs an intervention if you ask me

Im not kidding one bit when I say, "We need open source Vehicle & Engine Manage System software and hardware!"

I want to be able to flash my Car's ECU with custom FOSS software. Yes, you can already replace the ECU with custom tuneing opetions that cost an arm and a leg. I want there to be Open Source Software and Hardware for consumer vehicles!

Can confirm. I'm 40 (oldest Millenial) and shit was poppin-off back in 2010.

The future is self-hosted digital media. I've got no qualms with pirating media. But I am an advocate for buying digital media from artists directly.

But apparently he was dating a trans girl.... So y'know, that's convenient enough of an excuse for these morons. Ignore the fact that the dude who pulled the trigger was a while Republican male...

Good riddance.

Proton has become a problem for privacy

Because we'll always be too scared to say no to the US. We're their bitch at this point. We're a little less loud than they are, but we're just as fucked up where it counts.

You did the right thing, and you did it gracefully. I would have told them to fuck the fuck off, and probably would have reported them to the department of consumer affairs and to the fair work commission (aus) 

I dunno, I've met some pretty fucking stupid people. Idiocy and ignorance go hand in hand.

While these scenes are outrageous, they're encouraging. The solidarity of the Nepalese people is incredible.

Or for those not interested in the fine grained control of keepassxc, bitwarden is free and has a great app and browser extensions

That's fucked up. Now release the rest of the Trump files!

The UK is really battling to knock the US of the top of the fuckedest country list ain't it

Very basically: communism is not “everyone gets paid the same” and it is not “no hierarchy ever.” You can still have inequality in income, status, or lifestyle. The core difference is where that inequality comes from.

Under communism, the means of production are collectively owned, so no one gets rich purely by owning things other people have to use to survive. You do not get passive power over others just because your parents did well or you happened to own capital first.

The baseline is that no one is excluded from basic human needs, food, housing, healthcare, education, safety. That removes the permanent underclass capitalism reliably produces. From there, differences in pay or quality of life can exist based on contribution, skill, responsibility, or scarcity, but they are not allowed to snowball into dynastic wealth and structural domination.

So yes, different jobs can lead to different standards of living. That alone is not capitalism. Capitalism specifically requires private ownership of productive assets and wage dependence. If everyone has equal access to opportunity and no one can hoard power across generations, you do not end up with the same class system we have now.

The honest answer is also the boring one: real-world implementations vary, some badly, and no system guarantees fairness automatically. Communism is about reducing structural exploitation, not pretending humans stop being human.

People saying “everyone will just do awful jobs out of pure love” are overselling it and hurting the argument. Incentives still exist. The difference is that survival is not used as the incentive.

TLDR: Capitalism uses deprivation as motivation. Communism tries to remove deprivation first, then argue about incentives afterward. Whether that succeeds is the real debate.

Grayjay, feetube, Smartube, Newpipe etc etc...

Would

Smart tube is great, but can we please just get Grayjay on smart TVs plz

Yeah, it's nice in theory, but a bit idealistic. The majority of people are always going to prioritise self interest over all else
