You just replied to a two-month old post. What a booming community! Clearly, leaving reddit vitalized it so much.
have phones? Or clothes?
the question is how much. When did you buy your last phone? A year ago? Two? I'm still rocking my nokia dumb phone I got like 15 years ago. Same with everything else. The consumption is orders of magnitude more, literally.
accusing them of “wanting too much”
It's not accusations, it's a statement of a fact. How many smartphones would an average westerner own in their life? How much clothes? All other useless "things" that nobody can live without? When europoors were starving and couldn't afford living in Europe, they moved and colonised America and Siberia, maybe it's time to think about moving to Venezuela or something where you'd definitely be able to afford a house and whatnot?
And on a slightly less vitriolic note, why blame corpos for inequality when you yourself vote for the officials who make the corpo dreams come true? I mean they do only what people allow them to do.
The real answer to that is, dear firstworlders, you want too much and you think you deserve it. For the entirety of history people lived in big families exactly because they couldn't afford all the shit on their own, the couldn't get more houses out of nowhere or easily get more land. The shithole countries live like that right now and nobody says I'm gonna stop reproducing because I can't decide whether I want a steamdeck or like a child crib. Because of this mindset we do actually have the global warming, and no amount of banned (but not really) plastic straws will fix that.

Orbital mechanics don't work like that. If you shoot for the moon and miss it, it's likely that you come back and burn in Earth atmosphere. It literally happened like last month.

You're refusing to understand what I'm telling you, instead you're just continuing with "but aktchually".
so what? What if a whole airbase chooses a side or side is chosen as a result of inner struggle and it falls under control of the guys you don't like? You talk as if it never happened before, take a look at recent civil wars, government doesn't always keep absolute control over its own assets.
What if, and hear me out, what if the F35 pilot would chose not to bomb civillians even very naughty ones? What if, and hear me out, what it the pilot has the same values as the insurgents? You talk as if civil war means random people vs all might of the state. In reality it's people vs people, and it can be anyone.
Today I checked the pmos sub and was quite surprised it was closed. And for what reason? API change is ancient history.
Clearly, the protest amounted to nothing and frankly once I figured out that reddit api change wasn't about preventing foss apps, but about squeezing paid apps out of the market, I didn't care about it at all.
What's important for any project is the community, and reddit is simply the only place where such community can grow. So why not open it back up?
