A lot of people on lemmy are just bad at first principles of economics and politics. They don't quite get (as Marx didn't) that the structures of capitalism arise from scarcity and complexity, and that it doesn't matter what you actually call the mediation of scarcity via a monetary proxy - the end results will be largely the same. Which is why the focus needs to be on understanding these complex systems comprehensively and regulating them. Not useless bumper sticker platitudes quietly celebrating even more violence.
Edit - yeah, exactly, there's no bigger threat to outdated ML orthodoxy than a freshman economics textbook
Wait until FOSS nerds learn that the NSA and DoD are some of the top upstream contributors to FOSS projects.
Rushed, and yet still somehow way too long.
But Infinity War was the better movie. Is this still up for discussion?
You get to a point where basic needs and standard luxuries don't move the needle and all the things you can't afford are just exponentially more expensive. This phase literally never ends. There are things Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk desire that they cannot afford. But even if you are making like 200k or so, "normal" living cost quickly become trivial, and it becomes about how much you have for crazy vacations and home upgrades. But you can be perfectly happy "just" getting a high end item and not a super lux item if you are a well adjusted person
It's more like money isn't the only part of happiness.
This is the answer. There are many tricks and coping strategies, but at the end of the day there is no shortcut. Once you truly decide to stop, you just stop doing it.

I think there's a real fear that federation can potentially leak a significant amount of user data, down to IPs and tracking fingerprints. Even if the version in the main git doesn't do that, it's not inconceivable that this kind of data mining could be quietly implemented as extensions/forks at some point. The threat surface just seems so massive with all the different servers involved in the trust model.
I mean you ever been to a wedding where nobody is drinking or dancing and everyone gets bored of smalltalk by 8pm?
