I asked you what you think they’d look like, and you’ve only repeated that “they don’t work have never worked and will never work” without answering my question.

Your argument is like an 18th-century commentator saying federalism would never work to the scale of the thirteen colonies—it underestimates what has advanced. Whereas the federalism-skeptics underestimated advances in checks and balances (whose problem today is IMO with one branch just abnegating its power) from enlightenment thought and the consolidated power of the legislature developed through British Parliament, you underestimate modern social connection and networking. Sure, there are deep divisions, but within those separated groups are bonds, the strength of which on such a large scale never before seen.

Though I think it’d also be interesting to talk about power, I’m talking about the economy, and unless discussing something that much broader interests you enough to discard talking about the economy and the military for you as well I think we should focus on what we were talking about instead of veering down further tangents.

It was how the vast majority civilization worked for millennia until the rise of capitalism. Nearly every pre- and feudal state (and every place where one might think people bartered) used a gift economy until near the Middle Ages’ end. You also seem to be thinking that contributions have to be centralized, and you do need to realize that the abolishment of “hard” property is at the core of anarchism.

Either way, I don’t see how one would think the military is an exception to the economy unlike every other major industry.

How do you envision other industries get their resources in a mutualist economic system?

…yea I wanna explanation

voluntarily giving each other resources is the basis of the mutualist economy and is literally embodied by the gift economy. what resource-distribution/economic system do you think anarchist societies would have? the militias will get their resources distributed just like any other industry

plus promptness is a necessary sacrifice here. everyone can have their best judgement on whether they should obey first and mutiny later

They only shut down last month, before which they were gonna use it themselves. I’ve still cope…

It has valuable lessons. The museum chapter is awesome. (Just do(n’t) read it while listening to the “Cycle of Life” second movement of Brian Wilson Presents Smile like I did.)

But they can earn money from licensing contracts or at least use it themselves

Now that the studio closed they should license it out.

because your eyes are covered in them

Can’t they just convert a “true” input to backend to uppercase

You can read https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete/issues/1700#issuecomment-645466148 for the decision to switch to Jawg. TL;DR: It was just the best: most up-to-date and lightweight.

For personal reasons, I no longer feel safe working on Linux GPU drivers or the Linux graphics ecosystem. I’ve paused work on Apple GPU drivers indefinitely.

If you think you know what happened or the context, you probably don’t. Please don’t make assumptions. Thank you.

I’m safe physically, but I’ll be taking some time off in general to focus on my health.

NYT publishes a ton of opinion pieces, especially since back then not everybody could own a press. They just published whatever opinion pieces that fit the page and they found moderately interesting. It could’ve just been a slow month. Plus the writer was chief of the Washington Bureau.

tbf, they did put “LEADER A REACTIONARY Is Anti Red and Anti-Semitic” and “Blackjacks Silence Opposition”, but at the same time “But several reliable, well-informed sources confirmed the idca that Hitler’s unti-Semitism was not so genuine or violent as it sounded, and that he was merely using anti-Semfitie propaganda as a bait to catch mesges of followers and keep them aroused, enthusiastic and in line for the time when his orgzanlzation {s porfected and sufficiently powerful to be emiployed effectively for political pur- poses,”
