The mind of a right winger can not be comprehended by mortal minds

Paying back the national debt one phone at a time, thats the TRUMP difference

Maybe this is true at smaller companies or old ones but the wlb as you go up in tech usually just gets worse, Finance it like starts really bad in IB but gets passable as you go up (like 60 hours a week). Alot of this is inflated by time people just doing nothing but saying these directors are not stressed seems laughable. My mom was one and as a kid it was noticeable how much she was constantly stressed about work when she was at home or on the weekend (On the weeks she did not work over the weekends lmao). When she retired it was like night and day. Upper management is like Game of Thrones without all the death

You can argue that this is just a byproduct of Capitalism and top down hierarchies and alot of the work was not really work and we should tear it all down (I agree mostly). But your other solution is bottom up hierarchy (basically using representatives, I wouldn’t say running government is exactly chill???) or just no hierarchy (Only viable if we all live in self sufficient communes which is pretty based),

Also mentioning caffeine is kind of funny, thats like the tip of the iceberg, these execs and finance bros are all doing coke and meth or some other type of stimulant. All I do is design computer systems and yell at claude to code them faster. Obviously theirs alot worse jobs than being a exec its def on the upper end of the distribution, wouldn’t call it easy imo

Ah Art of the deal, See this is why im not president

5 years is crazy, even Elon companies don’t make you wait 5 years for a vest

I think Elon is kind of the exception he posts on twitter way too much to be doing any real work lmao. He’s essentially a brand guy and all his companies try to keep him away from the real work (I think he wanted the spaceX rocket to use Windows???)

I feel like we are not thinking authoritarian enough. In the end computer production is centralized, no one is making hand crafted artisan laptops. If the gov says all computers need to be backdoored, all ISP’s can only have devices with hardware attestation running on their networks, what do you even do?. The infrastructure for networking is all monopolized too. Like we could have some sort of onion routing over a mesh network, but the government can just make that network illegal to run.

Well in 1934 we had book burnings. Have you considered an LLM burning?

In 2040s do we just move our brains into our own self hosted data centers?

when was the last such case

People will surrender all ownership if you can provide more content more cheaper and conveniently, ownership is much lower on most people’s priority than convenience

Arch is truly just a gamblers distro

damn was born the wrong color. Unfortunate

its kind of crazy how much I used to use the AUR, Was just randomly running randoms peoples scripts to install packages.

where do people live where people just talk to each other in public, I feel like I need to move their.

I live in the USA and it fine? Maybe its a walmart thing though I never go to walmart

Actually to expand on this, you can kind of do the opposite, for example you can launder federated social media if that federated social also contains something people actually want. Then relying on network effect/cultural inertia to keep you relevant

Curious, whats a “better world” to you?

crack walked so fent could run

My work just handed me a laptop then let me flash whatever distro I wanted onto it
