no no keep the bot accounts so we can get a second Reddit facebook exodus wave

high pressures are scary as shit.

apart from that, there’s no sunlight down there. it’s basically like living in antarctica.

this just reminds me of please which runs the previous command with sudo

socat - connect anything to anything

for example

socat - tcp-connect:remote-server:12345

socat tcp-listen:12345 -

socat tcp-listen:12345 tcp-connect:remote-server:12345

nmap *your_local_ip_address*

for example

nmap 192.168.1.43/24 will show you what devices are connected to the local network, and what ports are open there. really useful, for example, when you forgot the address of your printer or raspi yet again.

you can also use it to understand what ports on your computer are open from an attacker’s perspective, or simply to figure out what services are running (ssh service).

losetup

it’s useful for dealing with virtual disk images. like a real physical hard disk, but it’s a file on the computer. you can mount it, format it, and write it to a real physical disk.

it’s sometimes used with virtual machines, with iso images, or when preparing a bootable disk.

how is that better than

cat /dev/zero > /dev/null

or

while true; do :; done

she already said no, what the heck why are you still trying

I believe most jobs that can be done from home can be automated by AI within the next 5 years.

It doesn’t matter whether AI can do the jobs of humans, it only matters whether management believes that AI can do the job of a human.

Would you say that what you’re currently doing (meetings, emails, …) could be done by AI anytime soon?

And would it make sense to you?

Is linux a game?

Is real life a game??

yeah, when interacting with a project/tool/website/etc. you need to look at who’s behind it and what are their incentives. For facebook, that’s making money with ads. So they push ads down your throat.

It’s important to have communal, public-benefit organizations behind the tool/network you use.

tbf, most posts on lemmy seem to be political as well.

We’d need to regulate the share of posts of

• politics
• technology
• entertainment

to be further on the side of entertainment and less on the side of politics.

if anybody can make a profit from enbottification, facebook wants to be the one to make that profit.

I think of GDP as muscle mass on a body builder.

At a certain point, it just stops making sense and being healthy.

Some can’t even put on socks anymore, duh.

I’m all for decentralized community-based hosting for large media files such as video, but i guess for text/structured databases it wouldn’t work due to synchronisation issues.

I see your point. I think i understand the individual arguments and just for the sake of clarity i would like to list them again:

• UBI would make the people dependent on government approval.

I think this depends on whether it’s properly implemented. If it’s properly implemented, it’s Universal and does therefore not depend on social compliance.

• UBI is a technical tool and therefore, by itself, it doesn’t solve social problems

I disagree. Giving resources to people solves problems, including housing, education, and medical care. Maybe the details of where and how to allocate the resources need more elaboration.

Maybe this is a misunderstanding because what i mean by UBI is “give resources to the people that they can use for everyday life without expecting something in return”. In so far, public schooling or public healthcare are also a form of UBI for me.

• Neo-nazi, billionaires, and other people that want to give the bare minimum to defend the status quo from its collapse.

Actually, I would like to keep the system from collapsing. If it does collapse, it will cause devastating harm on not only you, but all of society, probably turning it into ruins and a state-beyond-return.

• The shift of power should happen contextually to the introduction of the UBI

Realistically, that’s not gonna happen. There’s not gonna be a “worker’s revolution” in the US. The rich take it all, leaving nothing for the poor. Dreams of a “revolution” are fairytales people tell themselves at night to sleep easier. If you really want change and to improve lifes, advocate for UBI. It really helps.

Unions will not increase the average wage. They will only even-out wages across the economy. Which means they will increase the lowest wage.

Unions will not solve the social problems in the US. UBI (Universal Basic Income) will solve them.

You need to advocate for UBI. There is no good reason not to have it.

UBI doesn’t cost the economy anything. That’s no “donating money to poor people”. Poor people will immediately spend it on food and housing/apartmenting, which means the money stays (better yet, flows) within the local economy.

The reason the US doesn’t have UBI yet isn’t because it isn’t affordable. It is. The reason UBI wasn’t introduced so far yet is because they wanted to scare the people into working harder. It’s for psychological reasons, not for real (financial/technical) reasons.

If there is 1 homeless person sitting by the street, people will say “they’re lazy and deserve this because they didn’t work hard. So i need to work harder”. If there’s 100 homeless people sitting by the street, people start to realize it’s not their fault and the system is at fault; and will demand drastic dramatic changes. UBI is an effective way to prevent that. UBI isn’t a choice - it’s a necessity for a stable society.
