No offense, but I seriously doubt you’ve done any of such analysis.
Well, go do the analysis for yourself then. But no, you would rather live on fairytale than look at your beliefs critically.
Part of the reason you know USSR sucked is because they had to do it publicly.
Yeah, why not show complete ignorance of history.
You wrote you’re supporting of the kind of socialism a lot of socialists would consider capitalism
No I didn’t.
So instead we should support a system where political motives are commodified and corporations sell the power to influence the political landscape…
You ever heard of the concept of lesser evil? That is what I consider capitalistic social democracy. If you find an even less evil system that does not just run on hopes and dreams, I will switch my support to that one.

Once you come up with an economic model that both works economically and does not hand power to elected officials or some other such group,
I literally wrote that I would support some form of socialism. That is not sarcasm. I am not talking about one example, I am talking about economic and game theory principles.
If you analyse the common forms of socialism using those, it is obvious it will always devolve into authoritarianism. The incentives between leaders and the population are too misaligned.

Comparing all capitalism to the US is the same as comparing all socialism to the Soviet Union.
There are plenty social democracies in Europe. I advocate for spreading those and making incremental improvements to them where appropriate.

Yeah, blame the Russians. As if the Russian revolutionaries were not fighting for the same ideals you believe in. Just by not realizing that eliminating capitalists concentrated all the power in the government and handed power to Stalin on a silver platter.

I don’t own much capital, but I live in a post communist country and I sure as hell don’t want to experience the shit our country already went through once.

Then go ahead and start one :D Good luck finding a bank that gives you an unsecured loan to start a business.

Then it is not equally owned as the title says.

I also want to receive stuff for free.
Who doesn’t want to join a co-op and receive shares of the company for free. Almost no one wants to start a co-op, financing it, taking risks and responsibilities only to give shares away for free and gain nothing for their risks.
- Comment on Plex ending support for Watch Together 1 month ago:
The easiest and most secure solution is probably tailscale. Just VPN into your local network instead of exposing Jellyfin to the internet.
An alternative I am using is Caddy reverse proxy with Authelia for authentication. So I have to log in to Authelia before I can access Jellyfin. Beware though, it took me like 2 days to properly configure Authelia. It is rather complicated.

My bad, I thought it was about payments in general (including other programs) but it says social security database. Sorry.
- Comment on How does this pic show that Elon Musk doesnt know SQL? 1 month ago:
Another accusation Elon made was that payments are going to people missing SSNs.
A much simpler answer is that not all Americans actually have an SSN. The Amish for example have religious objections towards insurance, so they were allowed to opt out from social security and therefore don’t get an SSN.

Ah, right. Thanks.

Seems to me like names were censored in the released screenshots. Were there uncensored screenshots that I missed/were deleted?

yes

Although statistically, it should be males being afraid to walk home at night.
- Comment on Gemini wont talk about Bernie Sanders 2 months ago:
Idk if it bypasses limitations, you can try. As for bullshiting, no. The AI almost certainly does not have the ability to go and open a webpage. If it was trained on wikipedia, it may give you the age listed at the time of it’s training. If not, it will likely take a different source and pretend it is from wikipedia. Either way, it will likely bullshit you about doing what you asked while giving you outdated/wrong information.
- Comment on Google is now forcing gemini in their gmail app 2 months ago:
Yeah, I have a 7 pro and it seems more like top of mid-tier device rather than a flagship, but I got it for GrapheneOS and will buy Pixel again just because of it.
- Comment on Google is now forcing gemini in their gmail app 2 months ago:
I use Tuta. It works decently well.
- Comment on Google is now forcing gemini in their gmail app 2 months ago:
If you are willing to forego Google Pay, I strongly recommend GrapheneOS.
- Comment on Sure. Whatev's 2 months ago:
I have to tell you what calories are, because it sounds so incredibly unhinged.
Calorie is a physical unit of energy. For food, calories are measured by removing all water from the food, turning it into powder, enclosing it in a metal container, submerging said container in water, measuring the temperature of the water, then setting the food on fire, which causes it to explode, and measuring the temperature of the water again.
By taking the difference between the temperature measurements, you can calculate how much energy the food released when exploded and that is the foods calories.
So calories basically tell you how explosive a food is.
What does that have to do with anything? Who knows.

FlorisBoard is a FOSS keyboard, that apparently has the space bar cursor thing (I just found that out, thank you).
It also has glide typing but I don’t use it so idk how good it is. Still would recommend giving it a try. Very customizable.
- Comment on I'm seriously proud of this 3 months ago:
There is like a billion free keyboards for android, even FOSS ones and you can disable the autocomplete on gBoard as well. But you go blame capitalism for every thing you mess up in your life.
- Comment on I'm seriously proud of this 3 months ago:
Yeah, but they chose to use redit and gboard. Like 2/3 self-inflicted.

Idk, I never used the weird advanced features of YAML, but the basics seems really nice for stuff you want a non programmer to edit.

The question is over 11 years old, so idk what is so funny about old question using old PHP.

Also, the drone falling could hit someone or something, but the chances of hitting the drone or whatever it is seems neglidgable.

Please, do NOT shoot at airborn targets, or any target where your are not certain a missed shot will be safe.

- Comment on Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey 4 months ago:
Yes and no. The survey is always scoring something 1-10 and then a text field on explanation/how to improve it. If you are too worried, you can just give the score. Even so, most people just fill them in normally and as I said, I did not see anyone regret being honest.
- Comment on Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey 4 months ago:
In our corp, our managers get the answers and results without the names of employees that gave the answers. Did not see anyone regretting being honest on the survey yet.
