Lol sounds like something an AI would generate if you asked it how to include more alcohol in your day.
So that’s what I did:
They may drink alcohol as a way of enhancing their creativity and overcoming mental blocks. They may believe that alcohol helps them to think outside the box and generate novel ideas. This could be especially relevant for jobs that require artistic or innovative skills, such as writers, designers, inventors, etc.
They may drink alcohol as a way of reducing stress and improving their mood. They may believe that alcohol helps them to cope with the challenges and pressures of their work environment. This could be especially relevant for jobs that involve high levels of responsibility, risk, or conflict, such as managers, lawyers, doctors, etc.
They may drink alcohol as a way of building rapport and strengthening relationships with their colleagues and clients. They may believe that alcohol helps them to be more sociable, friendly, and persuasive. This could be especially relevant for jobs that require interpersonal or communication skills, such as salespeople, teachers, counselors, etc.
They may drink alcohol as a way of celebrating achievements and rewarding themselves for their hard work. They may believe that alcohol helps them to enjoy the fruits of their labor and appreciate their accomplishments. This could be relevant for any job that involves goals, targets, or milestones, such as athletes, engineers, scientists, etc.
Tom didn’t say limit, he said goal. He said that after a break, he will probably upload videos to his main channel from time to time, but that when he does come back it won’t be at his current schedule or with his current format.
I’m trying to figure out what X-ray equipment can be stolen that is worth only thousands of dollars. A case of those films you bite on when they x-ray your teeth?
By “this” you’ve been doing FOSS for a decade and a half? And yet you’re unable to provide even a hint of a shred of evidence that FOSS would meaningfully solve or even alleviate the issues with modern capitalism? Paint me skeptical.
I haven’t been working on FOSS projects the whole time, but I’ve been doing software development for over 15 years, not including my time in university, so I’m not unfamiliar with the subject.
The burden of proof is on you. You’re the one making the claim, and I’ve also mentioned the patently obvious fact that capitalists use FOSS products to “improve efficiency” (reduce headcount) just to get the ball rolling.
I feel like we mostly agree with each other, we just don’t agree about the extent to which FOSS is helpful.
I agree, although perhaps less dramatically, that closed source is harmful, and that you can’t trust it. I agree that FOSS makes trusting software easier (although not trivial, critical vulns can still exist for years), and FOSS helps democratize whatever the software is used for (although in the current capitalist hellscape, software tooling is a relatively small hurdle).
To me, you don’t need FOSS to build a (literal) guillotine, and you don’t need FOSS to spread flyers. It’s not necessary for a revolution, and recent history seems to show it doesn’t really move us closer to a revolution. I don’t understand the basis for your claims otherwise. Communication benefits from software, and FOSS means that we can trust our tools of communication more, but in the end we still largely depend on ISPs and corporate hardware. People don’t have open source hardware phones, running mobile distros of Linux, loaded with radical app repos, running a massive adhoc p2p communication network.
I see FOSS as a goal. I want to live in a world where FOSS is the natural state of things, collaborating instead of competing. That is the end state I want to achieve, but it is not itself the solution for achieving that state.
FOSS is the solution (in microcosm) in the sense that it is a good replacement for capitalism, but not the solution in the sense of doing the work to achieve the end goal.
If you’re using software to do just that, then I’m saying that you’re wrong.
My point was that you don’t need to use software to do just that.
I do
You’re not most people. You’re not even most anti-capitalists or revolutionaries. It’s important to stay grounded in the reality of meeting people where they’re at. If you’re expecting your revolution to be populated by tech savvy people, I’ve got some bad news to break to you.
relevant to fucking anything digital based on an agreement towards respect for another human’s life without knowing that person
I agree, that’s why FOSS is the ethical choice. But that doesn’t get us closer to a revolution. If I understood your last paragraph, it was a bit hard to follow.
