41·2 days agoThere’s three types of liberal:
- politically liberal (means you can say what you want)
- economically liberal (means your company can do what it wants)
- socially liberal (means you can love who you want)
typically, it’s important to distinguish which types we’re talking about. An economic-liberal is sometimes also called a neo-liberal, and does typically not help social wellbeing.
I think that’s a personal thing. I more or less knew who i was going to be/develop into by the age of maybe 13.
lol nobody bound these people to the tracks, they were just born there, just as their grandparents, and their grandparents, they are native to the tracks.
the people bound to the tracks are a symbol of the nature we’re destroying through our progress as our society, and they cannot simply be “unbound” without unrooting them from their native place, their culture, their history. The only way their suffering can be stopped is by making the train come to a halt. That is the curse of progress.

where proprietary software will eventually be replaced by FOSS software. it just takes a while (Linux was released in 1991).
also, for social media, it’s not so much about the software used, more about who controls it, and hosting plays a significant part in this. the question is, how do we put up an organization large enough to actually sustain that many users?
who pays for image/short video upload for a billion people? small instances on the fediverse already cost real money. feddit.org has 1000 users and reportedly already costs $1000/month to host, IIRC (which seems expensive, even to me, anyways), and catbox.moe, which is a donation-funded service also costs around $1000 (says so on their website). that number would obviously increase sharply if there were more users. So: who pays for it?
especially if the fruit is a peach
no, i don’t wanna get out of bed
Reminds me of these pictures:
if anybody wants more like them, DM me.
it used to be more beautiful, this is after all the industrialization polluting air and water.
IIRC in germany 25% of trees are dying, due to one reason or another. You often see trees without any needles/leaves, and if they have, they are often grey-ish. It is rare to see a completely healthy forest, and yet if you do, it gives you a sense of what is the meaning of life. At least that’s how it is to me. Such a connection to nature.
