It's amazing what you can pull off with free labour and CIA funding. I also find it funny how that donation banner still shows up every year when they've already accumulated so much capital.
It's a real shame what's happened to Mozilla. Maybe Trump will add browser software to the list of sanctions on China and we'll end up with a Deepfox in a year or two.
Literal fascist Nazi regime: It's just a few bad apples that spoil the barrel. The cognitive dissonance of these people is astounding. Unlimited Yemeni missile strikes on Tel Aviv!
They're officially known as Ansar Allah. Hard agree on the 5D chess story being funnier. Ansar Allah used drone swarm. USA is confused. USA used anti-air missile. USA hurt itself in confusion.
When you tap your pocket and the rush of anxiety hits you when you realize your phone isn't in there. Only to realize seconds later that you're using it and it's in your hand. Thanks ADHD!
They won't necessarily stop someone from sleeping on them entirely. It will certainly limit how they can be slept on. I imagine the point is to make it just uncomfortable enough for homeless people to look to sleep elsewhere. I also imagine that they would completely block these off if there was a quick and reasonably aesthetically pleasing way to do so without much cost. This is simply the compromise they've come to.
That is a very good point. After all, a lot of Marx's work was synthesized by correcting the errors in other previously proposed theories, such as dialectics. I agree that it's a good opportunity to seek out the flaws in this type of thinking and establish good arguments that counter it. I will try to remember this instead of allowing it to frustrate me.
I do find it funny how the author criticizes the enshittification theory as only partially correct, only to propose their own theory which is also incorrect. Perhaps correct theories can only be established through scientific methods and thorough study of history 🤔. Or perhaps you just need to have a blog and an audience 🤷
I read most of this, but holy, it just goes on and on. A lot of the messages are repeated to death. While I agree with them for the most part, it's incredibly frustrating how libs always create this imagined form of capitalism (the rot economy in this case) to point at and tell everyone that if we just had "ethical" capitalists running the industry that everything would be better. This is what no theory does to a mf.
It's incredibly obvious that this trend isn't unique to the tech industry if you take a moment to think about how other industries have followed the same goal of infinite growth that is inherent to the capitalist system. Property development, furniture, small and large appliances. Everything gets shittier due to the tendency for the rate of profit to fall as described by Marx and these large corporations monopolize and cut costs to make up for it. Perhaps a system that requires infinite growth based on a planet with limited resources is simply not sustainable. I know that I'm preaching to the choir here, but I had to get this out after spending so long reading this.
I was watching a China special on teleSUR a couple of nights ago and got my first taste of Dugin. I honestly have no idea why he was a part of it. He didn't even talk about China, but was harping on about how all of Africa must unite to struggle against American imperialism. He didn't put forth a single idea regarding how that can be achieved. As if all of Africa is some monolith. And this nonsense was immediately preceded by a pretty good Radhika Desai lecture. Needless to say, I was not impressed.
