  • Can we talk organizing? Historic resistance movements? Tips? Tricks? Thoughts?

  • This is going to sound a little stupid, but in a scenario like that I like to try to blend in with ultra-capitalists. As it turns out, really positive socialism/communism (just sharing in general basically) is pretty much the best way to do capitalism anyway.

    Basically, I excel. That's what I'm doing at my current job. Getting qualified in 2 weeks instead of 6 months, doing extra work etc etc. right. Then, once you've established yourself as being someone "worth" listening to in the eyes of your capitalist bosses/coworkers, you just start relentlessly defending people. For example, they wanted to fire one of my coworkers for calling out too often so I basically sandbagged for a shift and then talked to my lead about how I just felt really shitty all day about her situation and they talked to HR for her.

    After a while, people will start to think of you not only as a great worker, but as an advocate for them. They will look to you for guidance. They will listen to your opinions. You may not gain authority, but influence can be just as powerful

    Is there any counter AI bots in the fediverse

  • Forcing the Fediverse into your experiment isn't going to get you into the position you think it will be the way

  • How can I assure myself that I can find a partner despite being chronically ill and disabled?

    Jump

  • I'm chronically ill. So is my partner. We help each other, utilize our strengths and weaknesses. I've been with "healthy" people and I find them to generally be less mentally tough. Not weaker, per se, just not as tough. I could not ever get by as well as I do without the toughness that our chronic illnesses has instilled into us.

  • I'm planning on buying a 3D printer relatively soon, but haven't ever had one so I've never bothered to learn much about them. Could I bother you to point out which part is the bed probe?

  • Nobody asked but I thought this was funny

    I skimmed the text, looked at the pictures and then sat here for like 2 minutes trying to figure out what tf you printed and why before I realized "maybe I could actually read the text like a human being instead of divining it out the fuckin air huh?"

    Couldn't be more correct. The absolute best thing you can do is create a support group around yourself, and the best/easiest way to do that is unionizing. Your coworkers are people who you relate to and have similar issues with - same asshole boss, same shitty workplace, similar shitty wages. You don't have to be friends, but you do need to be teammates and stand together against people who want to prevent you from working together both at and outside of work.

  • The state should be purely passed through function inputs and outputs

  • Capitalism as a whole is almost always incompatible with anarchy, at least in the way we tend to do it now.

    That last part is really important. Many anarchists, socialists, and whatnot recognize that capitalism can be fine. It's just that humans really suck at doing capitalism, we keep doing pseudo-feudalism instead

  • Like the other person said, beta software is expected to go through pretty large design changes. It's not a matter of "forcing it on the user" it's a matter of "my software isn't ready yet, I'm not certain what my vision is, and if you're not willing to put up with me figuring out what I want out of this software then wait for it to release and I'll keep it stable from there"

  • I didn't assert it. In fact, I very intentionally used passive language to avoid asserting it as a truth. I said "I think there are... That claim to be"

    I didn't say "Russia claims to be communist" or the likes.

    I specifically phrased it that way to communicate that that was my understanding and not necessarily the truth. Then, someone told me my understanding was wrong and I corrected it. Then you came along, doing whatever this is.

  • I was humble about it. I publicly admitted that I was a victim of propaganda and adjusted the way I acted going forward.

    You're right that I probably could have put a other moment of thought into it before hitting post and I probably would have googled it and then changed it. Which is exactly what someone else has already pointed out to me and I've already done. So you're repeating them, and bringing no value to the conversation.
