You might wanna watch dont look up. Its pretty spot on in that department.

And I dont think anything will come through people's apathy - besides a world ending comet maybe.

I think people will get upset enough to get off their butts and do things. The issue I see currently is that demonstrating likely wont bring change but if people start disrupting harder (not more violent, although I'm not a pacifist at all) it will definitely bring change.

Afaik, what he does is called manufacturing consent.

Can you link that research?

Jetzt benutzen wir also wieder den begriff "ausländer" um menschen mit migrationshintergrund abzuwerten, soso.

Überdies steht in dem artikel nichts über die ursache der durchsuchungen und im hinblick auf die menge der rechtsextremen straftaten ist dies eher ein zeichen von noch mehr symbolpolitik und der artikel ist gefühlt keineswegs besser.

Although I wont cry over a somewhat promising development like this, the perverted understatement of both the situation and israels actions really rubs me the wrong way. The amount of repeated "too little, too late" of the so called "democratic" western states gives me a chronic impression that hints at either gross incompetence or intent.

OP has made a post about linux as a way to get away from a capitalist hellscape corporation. You arguing against that may be technically correct but makes no sense in this community.

Formal warning.

Yeah sure. Because a company paywalling functions has anything to do with network configuration.

What people like you dont understand is that there is no minimum requirement of knowledge to selfhost. It is completely braindead how often i have to tell people how a network works and now i have to explain to people why software configuration is not network configuration.

No, there isnt. At least nothing sane.

You can do everything either on linux, on proton or in the worst case, on a vm. I had to use itunes recently to hack an apple device. A vm did the trick.

There is one thing that isnt on linux - and i hope it never comes - competitive games which give the company that owns the game complete access to your machine. You just hand it over. That dont fly with linux and for huge fucking reason.

So no, you dont need dualboot as soon as you have worked through the possible different emulation layers.

Yeah that wont happen because only socialist countries have famines because they dont work /s

I wonder when we will shed this rotten system.

Its highly ironic to spew hate while claiming others to be bad.

I suggest staying constructive. That helps with conversations on any fedi service (and liberal use of the block button if folks dont take criticism well, wink wink)

Good question.

I think I have to distinguish between my opinion on what a legal system should be vs what i think it is first.

Imo a legal system should just elaborate on justice, ie equalizing between opposing parties on the fixed principles of ist foundation. For example if you have the rule that nobody shall be harmed, that includes all harm and no matter for what reason, except necessary to keep harm from others etc.

What I think the legal system is in most countries (or rather has become, but i'll explain why that was the only choice anyway) is a way for the rich and powerful to excert power over the masses. You need to be insanely privileged to work in the legal system or to influence it, you need a lot of money to hire a lawyer, etc.

The country i live in is infamous for its complicated and blown up legal system. It is exactly what I explained before.

Why is it systemic? We have the issue that we live in an unfair system that thrives on inequality and left by itself it is cruel and heartless. A legal system needs to try its best to keep the cruel parts at bay which osnt possible long term. In socialist systems, despite their flaws, that is much easier because the system is based on similarity.

I think we need a better system (you can guess) and then the legal system will collapse to the most basic stuff like theft, fights and such. The whole "legally stealing from customers" shtick will be gone.

It kinda was. It managed to move a lot of money from the poor people to the rich people. Thats why theyre doing it again.

Capitalist playbook 101. thats exactly what happened in germany back in 1910s and 20s.

How many people have to die because of it, too.

Still, its the system. It needs to go, desperately. Its basically screaming at us to finally send it off.

You can just add them and start them. If it doesnt work immediately, you can look at protondb which solution works best.

The issue is that you are comparing david to goliath. Its okay to compare the two but lets not act as if we're not comparing the homemade go kart to a ferrari that has gotten trillions in funding over the years.

Linux could be half as good and still be the unbelievably better choice. With them trading blows is like the only time in history where david actually has a chance at winning.

Teamviewer is an absolute shitfest and had its data stolen approximately a year ago. Not to mention that it stops sessions for free tier users.

Rustdesk is a great solution imo for selfhosters.

Yeah, i never got the point in threema. Any particular advantage to signal and matrix?

Resilience. Federated social media is resilient against censoring and corporate takeover.

It.does however not help with eee attacks which I why most of us block threads and a lot will block other fediverse sized (or larger) single instances of eg bluesky etc.

Other, less important (to me) benefits are no algorithms, no profit motive, no ads.

The fediverse is just better in any way.
