Don't be distracted by this company or that company. It is the entire system that is to blame. This is the natural gravity of capitalism. Nothing is spared in the relentless pursuit of more profits. Monsanto was a convenient villain for the capitalists to pretend it is just certain bad actors instead of a system that is filled with contradictions and terrible motivations.
St. Louis is my favorite city. Lived there for several years and still have many friends there. Missouri is a good state to live in and lived several years in upstate NY. NY is the worst place I've ever lived so this is just them trying to act like they aren't the worst people from the worst places.
Ok by what measure does the United States have "the most intelligent people on earth"? I have read some delusional stuff but that somehow Milei is anything other than a globalist corporate tool is laughable. He talks good sometimes but his actions belie him. The idea that Trump is going to "save" anything is equally laughable. This is the talk of children. Daddy Milei and Daddy Trump will save us! Neither of you understand what is really at play here. It isn't some 4d chess with the deep state. It is simply the deep state changing tactics. The reasons they don't like Trump are far more presidential than all that. He's just a bad face and voice for empire but empire must continue. This hero worshipping mentality is not befitting of free people. Kill your heros
It is absolutely asinine and a complete losing argument to try to paint Harris as a communist. She couldn't be further from that. She is a corporate puppet. What is it called when corporate power merges with state power? That's called fascism not communism. Learn your ism's if you want to be taken seriously.
Ok her father is a communist academic who has disowned her publicly over her remarks about Jamaicans. The globalist agenda is a capitalist agenda. You should seriously look into these things. You are correct to be suspicious of her and her agenda but don't let the propaganda dictate how you frame things. You clearly don't understand what communism is and it is annoying to see these lame attacks that fall flat on their face because they are so ridiculous when there are real things to criticize.
You could be describing capitalism. It is a stupid meme that is a losing argument. I'm against Harris because she is a fascist not because she is a communist. You are confused and should really read Marx if you're going to pretend to understand what he said. I'm sorry I had a couple of sodas and was tired of seeing those stupid memes and I took it out on you. I get annoyed because these stupid memes are the result of very effective propaganda that most people don't know the meaning of the words they use. Just for the record though... Where would you put the number of victims of capitalism? Since all modern wars were capitalist wars... The countless famines and slaughters of people in the name of resource extraction. If you want to compare numbers I don't think you'll like the math.
This is the natural gravity of capitalism. It is the philosophy of eternal growth which means eternal consumption and destruction of all things. As one accumulates wealth, they also accumulate power... Which, in turn, is used to accumulate more wealth and more power... Etc... It is not "human nature" or inherit in technology it is simply the context in which they interact and the incentives inherent in the system within which they operate. We improved upon previous systems when capitalism emerged... We can do better
There have been studies showing that people's empathy decrease with the amount of wealth they acquire. Most of us do care about our communities but there are those plundering them and those that are plundered and are way down on Maslow's Hierarchy of Need and struggling to survive. I know I feel it every time I go to the grocery store. We shouldn't want to live in a society that creates so many desperate people while others fly on private jets.
But isn't a VPN basically a tunnel to another public IP address? Eventually somebody still has our IP no matter what basically it just depends on who you want to have it... At least that's how it seems to me. I'm no expert so just giving my impression of the situation as I understand it
Right, instead it was NATO that provoked Russia repeatedly first by overthrowing the democratically elected government of Ukraine through their Nazi assets in the country causing eastern Ukraine to declare independence since they didn't want to be ruled by Nazis that burned a bunch of Russian speakers alive in a Union Hall so the Nazi government of Ukraine started bombing them killing over 15000 civilians over 8 years. NATO kept also dangling NATO membership in front of Ukraine which is a hard red line for Russia. The US promised at the end of the cold war that NATO would not expand one inch east. Instead NATO has expanded dramatically right up to their border. So yes... Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022 but you left out a LOT of context.
When an ant is infected with cordyceps fungus the others will do this and carry it away from the nest before the fruiting body emerges from the ant and infects the rest of the colony.

I have a node running on spinning rust. It can take a really long time to download and verify the Blockchain though I've never had it kill an HDD before. I've only downloaded it once and just bootstrap each new implementation so I don't have to go through that again.
I'm still using the fountain app. It is definitely better than it was but needs more improvement. I'm a years long podcast addict user. It is still installed just in case but I'm in fountain 99% of the time
It really isn't that difficult to manage your own nextcloud. I just stick it behind tailscale and then never have to expose it to the internet while still being able to connect when I'm away from my home network. I just have a server running on an old desktop PC running with docker compose. This makes the updates fairly easy but there are many install options.
Florida trip! This outta cover the tax on a cup of coffee but maybe btc will rip. Fingers crossed

Machado is a member of an opposition, with the aid of the US State department committed nationwide violence and assisted in attempted coups in order to create instability and take back control of Venezuelan resources to enrich global elite and multinational corporations. Chàves' major crime was taking control of the oil of Venezuela for the benefit of the people of Venezuela instead of a few connected elites. Machado represents these elites. Chavistas stole nothing but the US and UK stole gold and other assets worth billions from Venezuela. She is just Juan Guaido 2.0... who is such a patriotic Venezuelan he lives in Miami and Maduro is such a dictator that he was allowed to walk the streets free in Venezuela after taking part in an attempted coup and taking control of Citgo assets in the US. don't be fooled into pushing CIA propaganda just because somebody talks favorably about Bitcoin. you need to be smarter than that
I'm still very confused by the UI of the primal app. (Android) I would think that "Latest" in "My Feed" would have all of the latest posts on the network but it is empty. 🤷
This is my first post. Decided to drop this picture of a flower bed we planted in an old canoe this year. We call it kanoe reeves
