Right. While I do have doubts as to whether the workers truly control the state in China, I admit it is not my area of study. After all, commodity form production is still very much a thing in China.

I’ll do some more research and then come back to it if I have more questions. (I really need to re-read Das Kapital, lol)

I hear your claims and raise you: The internet is for cat videos.

Depends on which, um, “plumbing” you got down there.

If only if burnt a couple decades earlier. A bit too late there mate.

Okay, even if I grant you that, does everyone in the Chinese government have to sell their labour-power for a wage, aka the definition of a proletariat?

Unrelated, but I absolutely adore your pfp.

I see your point, but we shouldn’t allow corporate interests with comedic amount of economic capital to simply take over an entire project through what basically is ye olde EEE tactics.

That’s kinda the point. If we can’t have economic growth without considering the humanistic aspect of it, then maybe we don’t deserve said economic growth.

I would not say life can’t be lived without it, but it’s more so that Facebook has so successfully commodified the public sphere that it seems almost like a natural, inherent part of contemporary communicative actions.

Maybe I’m just being optimistic, but I trust Torvalds. The same can’t be said about the typical vibe-coder, though.

“No way to stop this” says the person actively making this happen.

Ah, cognate to the German „Fach“ and the English “fact”. That makes sense.

Genuine question from someone equally amateurish. What use is reverse proxy in this setup? What necessitated it instead of just a direct connection?

Intrusive thoughts happens to the best to us, mate. You still realise it’s harmful, so you shouldn’t be so hard on yourself. 🫂

Quite. I think that’s also why we’re on the Fediverse, right? While so many of our tech is captured by corporates, we still have room to not accept it all laying down. That’s what negotiation means, drawing your own boundaries, and as much as I hate saying it, picking your own battles, while realising not many will be willing or able to fight the same ones you do.

Okay, how are bike lanes intrinsically either (a) diverse, (b) equitable, or © diverse, in any way, shape, or form? Like, what logic are they even using here? It’s like saying sidewalks are somehow partisan. (They [i]are[/i] political though, as they concern with legitimacy, normative behaviour, and intersubjective identity formation.)

I am genuinely so tired with this administration, and I’m not even a US American.

Maybe the Fediverse should just be for social media, and leave DMs to like, XMPP or something? I dunno, just a thought. Feel like we’re reinventing the wheel here.

Hm… Bad person, mid system. Pass.
