We are but not like that lol

You can “sideload” apps outside the google store.
For example I’ve been using myinsta instead of IG. It was very easy to download and install.
Grifting and capitalist extraction more generally are fundamental to every state.
I’m not a crypto hater but… I used Brave for like a year or two. My mind almost melted from constantly closing ads for crypto business/scams. I made about $30 overall. Not worth it. Switched back to Firefox.
I’m not so worried about stormtroopers using linux as much as guns, bombs, prisons, cops, torture, genocide, nukes, etc.
Imperial core gonna imperial core.
On device Foss models to help you with various tasks.
Thankfully I really really don’t need an “AI” to use my desktop. I don’t want that kind of BS bloat either. But go ahead and install whatever you want on your machine.
local models would be at the core of FOSS AI, and they dont require you to trust anyone with your data.
Would? You’re slipping between imaginary and apparently declarative statements. Very typical of “AI” hype.
Gnome and other desktops need to start working on integrating FOSS AI models so that we don’t become obsolete.
lol no thanks.
I use Kdenlive for video editing. It’s been awesome for my purposes.
Garageband. Sadly it’s my favorite DAW. I’ve tried many alternatives.

100%. I came here to say the same thing. The vibe at ycomb is like condescending fascism. I’ve been banned many times. Lemmy is a vast improvement for tech news/info.
Not to mention cultish stuff like “slate star codex”, etc.
Wow a study of one person?!? Sounds like a top tier scientific result. \s
Classic pyramid scheme of capitalism.
Yes, the state is subservient to capital.
If Google is a monopoly (it’s not), it’s only a monopoly because they’ve cornered the market through previously good service. Now they’re using this power to inflict larger and larger amounts of time theft, brainwashing, etc. It is actually good to block this trash and “evil” to profit from it.
I want to watch the videos that people created. None of that belongs to Google. Google is just an increasingly aggressive leech in the middle.
There is no such thing as basic human decency when you’re being used (aka “employed”).
Excellent explanation (and disclaimer). I might just add another 2 cents…
It’s not just that “the market fails” to account for many “externalities”, but also that the market is systemically incapable of ever accounting for very many, very important externalities.
IE. The space of externalities >>> the market space. For example if the market priced in the suffering of labor (by paying living wages+, etc), that alone might make the market unaffordable. Similarly with climate justice, etc. The exploitation of these externalities is largely the basis of “profit”.
