⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can socialism or communism have incentives (even without markets)?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:
Not generally.
I don’t keep speeches prepared on topics. I just say what I think at the moment, when I run across an interesting prompt.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can socialism or communism have incentives (even without markets)?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:
Don’t know what you’re actual question is. You need to be more specific.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can socialism or communism have incentives (even without markets)?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:
Of course they have markets. Any society that grows much larger than where everyone can personally know everyone else, will need some form of money. The options are eithor barter directly, or use some form money as a medium of exchange and accounting. Barter can work in groups up to even several hundred at least, maybe even a couple thousand. But beyond that, some form of money will naturally emerge.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2026 savings distribution feedback⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Which tax advantaged account doesn’t matter to growth or liquidity.
For growth, what matters is what you’re holding in the accounts.
And you can’t take any of it out until retirement, so viscosity doesn’t even matter much.

Beyond that answering your question would require knowing the current distribution.

In short I think you’re confidently looking at this the wrong way and need to talk to a professional to get things straightened out.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the United States of America was renamed, what should it be?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Sure, but that is the line in the song.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the United States of America was renamed, what should it be?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Could go all KFC and just make the full offical name be “USA”.

I’d like something original. Something that captures the spirit of the country. Something like “Glorificia” maybe. “I’m proud to be a Glorifican! Where at least I know I’m freeee”
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you fight doomerism/pessimism in these trying times?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
By knowing that time is long, and these things always happen in cycles.

In 50 years this will be viewed as a dark time in American history. Hopefully one that created a new greatest generation.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Tidal benefits from supporting universal links list that redirect to competitors?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
How [does] Tidal benefits from supporting universal links that redirect to competitors?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Im stupid but have money⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
It is. Keep at it then. Until you have enough to retire anyway.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If WWIII broke out tomorrow do you honestly believe america would win?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
That’s a very complicated question.
Which nations are on which sides?
What’s the competing ideologies?
What was the inciting incident?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm about to get fired. How do I make sure my next job is a better place to work?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Call them today. Don’t wait
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Very minor Academy spoilers] Does anyone else think the marketing undersold Holly Hunter as Chancellor Ake?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Sure she’s an Oscar winner. But that was a long time ago. And Oscars are never a guarantee of future work or pay rate.

For nearly a decade now she’s only done a few guest spots on series, some supporting roles in small movies, a few voice roles. This show is the biggest thing she done in quite a while.

There you go. Good on you

Paradox of tolerance
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify’s 3rd price hike in 2.5 years hints at potential new normal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Streaming isn’t the problem. The lables screwing over the artists on their streaming cut is the problem. Stop supporting the lables.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify’s 3rd price hike in 2.5 years hints at potential new normal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
I was playing a role to try to make a point to the OP.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify’s 3rd price hike in 2.5 years hints at potential new normal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Judgmental attitudes ar an accepted cancer of online discourse. And I try to point it out sometimes.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify’s 3rd price hike in 2.5 years hints at potential new normal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Why do your feelings about how others pay for things matter to anyone?
Why does it even matter to you?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify’s 3rd price hike in 2.5 years hints at potential new normal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
I was trying to be subtle, but that doesn’t seeme to be working.

The point is, lots of people enjoy music lots of different ways, for lots of different reasons. Just because you don’t use subscriptions doesn’t mean they aren’t valid and useful to anyone who isn’t yo u.

In short: Don’t gate keep
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify’s 3rd price hike in 2.5 years hints at potential new normal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
That’s no way to enjoy music. You can hardly hear anything on that tinny little phone speaker.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify’s 3rd price hike in 2.5 years hints at potential new normal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
But why listen to just one song? It seems a waste to sit down, put on headphones or fire up the livingroom stereo, all for only a single pice of music.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify’s 3rd price hike in 2.5 years hints at potential new normal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Maybe it’s my age, but I never understood buying single songs. I listen to whole albums. They were crafted and assembled as a set. It feels like watching one scene of a movie, or reading one chapter of a book.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I don't understand how Trump gets away with all his senial BS. How come everyone is telling him to piss off or use the constitution to shut him the hell up?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Jail? No, never. We do kill them occasionally.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do crappy parents defend their child when they are masively publicly misbehaving and being shitheads?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Being crappy is a judgement, not a cause of anything.
Using it as such is a cop-out. A lazy way of dismissing something so you don’t have to try to understand it.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there no instution or person that Trump go after? Or we are all just screwed?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
I think you’re missing a word in that title.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Instead of everyone leaving NATO, could everyone else just kick the US out?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
The most downvoted and most upvoted comments say the same thing g.
People are werid.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where are the marketing volunteers?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
The Fediverse should be as ubiquitous as email.
Your ISP, company, government, etc. should all host their own social media, just like they do email.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you "process" hundreds of tabs you haven't gotten a change to go through?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
If they were actually important, you’dve remembered and dealt with them already. Go ahead and close them. You might be suprised when the FoMo goes away after.

I have Vivaldi set to close any tabs older than 3 days.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there desire for Capt. Una spin-off?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
A new Star Trek (2027) that just continues from SNW would be great!

Reboot’s are overly maligned. And continuity is a nievely harmful fantasy. You realise TOS got up to warp 14 or something right? It could do with a new version.
