Are Playstation gamers seriously going through what PC gamers went through 20 years ago?
- Comment on I wonder why the world is on fire? A mystery 1 day ago:
It’s not a capitalist system or a socialist system, it’s called a mixed economy. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed_economy
One could make the same argument about a socialist country forced to coexist and trade with a capitalist world. Absolutism gets us nowhere.
- Comment on I wonder why the world is on fire? A mystery 1 day ago:
But then even most self-described socialists use the catch phrase “socialism isn’t when the government does stuff” these days. Even though it is, if the government was democratically elected.
And OP said the World, not America. There’s plenty of mixed economies around the world that are doing just fine, arguably better than any other form of economy.

I have yet to meet a single self-described socialist willing to admit that welfare programs like universal healthcare in democratic countries are a form of socialism. Will you be my first?
- Comment on I wonder why the world is on fire? A mystery 2 days ago:
Then some socialist buds in and says “actually socialism isn’t when the government does stuff!” and then I say “it is if it’s a democratically elected government” and then they say “This isn’t real democracy!” and then I agree and point out that actually the REAL root of all these problems is the lack of democracy, and then they get mad.
- Comment on I wonder why the world is on fire? A mystery 2 days ago:
The thing is most countries don’t go around declaring themselves “we are a capitalist nation, we follow the capitalist ideology”, so this seems pointlessly vague.

- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah they’re not going to use the word genocide without a pretty strict set of criteria being met by an international court. They don’t use that word on non-western countries either.
But it is nice to see they repeatedly condemn Israel’s actions on that page, which you didn’t quote.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 3 weeks ago:
“Western MSM” includes CBC, AFP, NPO… that’s such a huge brush to paint with.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 3 weeks ago:
Socialism, traditionally defined, involves some form of collective or public ownership of the means of production. Universal healthcare, labor protections, welfare programs, and unions do not inherently require that.
Universal healthcare and other social programs are, in a democracy, an example of the public owning the means of producing healthcare or other industries.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 3 weeks ago:
I do find it weird that we are taught here in Canada, and I assume most other western countries, that Hitler was the worst human being in history. And then I hear Mao had a higher score?

So can non-Chinese reporters and journalists come in and check and make sure that reality is true?
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 3 weeks ago:
China’s quality of life for its people has been rising by leaps and bounds in the past fifty years.
You have a long way to leap when you start out so far behind.
Don’t forget the main reason western countries moved all their manufacturing there is because of their lack of labour rights.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 3 weeks ago:
And thirdly, the western countries’ refusal to speak out against Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Jordan and Lebanon has turned most of lemmy against their governments.
You’re lumping in a whole lot of countries with America and England there.
Almost like that’s the whole point of the anti “West” thing.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 3 weeks ago:
The internet has been largely anti-west since as long as I can remember, but the pro-CCP thing is newer.
Part of it is because they’re one of the only “flag carriers” of socialism, so to speak, and that blinds some really desperate socialists who can’t see they are about as far from socialism as America.

It makes doctor-patient interactions a lot easier when you walk into the room with an understanding that it requires an autistic level of dedication to actually study that shit and memorize it all.

Neither did I, but they all started offering, so I started using those tools. Especially the all-in-one systems where it’s like “just buy the hardware, go to this website, and it’ll flash for you”. Like that’s more secure than “go to this website and download and run this weird exe” isn’t it?

None of the browser based COM port uploader tools work on Firefox yet. Like the WLED installer or the ESP32 flash tools.

Yeah I’m not buying the “proactively destroying the planet” angle. I’d imagine there’s a lot of misinformation around AI, given that the products surrounding it are mostly Western, like vaccines…
