So (feelings opinions)

It sounds like owners are taking on a whole lot of risk just so the banks don't. If that's the case then is the equity actually good enough to merit me being the banks money armor?

And 80% agree with the equity argument, I just can't help not have hope for the future and am literally asking who is gonna buy my house in 40 years? Less kids are being born, this country is falling into Republican hands so can't rely on selling my house to immigrants now can I?

I feel like Americans have known why we're here for so long and now this generation doesn't. I can't tell if it's for a reason someone is keeping secret or if the answer doesn't exist bc we're not supposed to be here anymore.

The article didn't say if it's rewritable

If the AI knows that a solution is available then it will think there's no reason not to use it. This is a demonstration of the morality of Nukes existing. If they exist someone will decide that they're the best solution to a problem.

Literally why is this necessary on a technical level. I'm a web developer, whenever I need my JavaScript to access a resource I have to spell out where to find it. I've never had a need to scan the browser or the system to make shit happen so why should I be able to in the first place.

They're saying they're not gonna just hand it over. Ring is still gonna have to answer subpoenas.

The whole point of side loading apps is to not need the app store. One of the most important features of an app store is to distribute and update apps. Storage and bandwidth isn't free, but it is quite cheap.

I'm sorry if it hurts apples feelings when we tell them they're not allowed to charge for every aspect of their hardware. But if they didn't want us to own our iPhones then they shouldn't have sold them.

Anybody who disrupts capitalism should be punished. We've done it before and we gotta do it again.

The whole point of capitalism is self determination. Not to dominate the world, we're not anarchists. But these criminals are pulling massive amounts of money out of the economy and that's not acceptable.

Most Linux package managers sync the list of all packages they can download. I wonder if some sort of system like that can be used to federate web searching.

The problem is that accounts are hosted by their fedi-instance. We need to use cryptography for platform agnostic authentication.

Posts tend to die within a day. What would be the point, reddit posts aren't worth restoring.

If that employee is producing double because of technology than that's all the employer deserves to ask for. If the employer wants the employee to double their efforts the employee will 4x their output which is an unreasonable thing to ask for, and those bosses loose people because of that. I don't give much attention to people who fail upwards.

there is a small subset of outwardly powerful humans who deeply suck

Yeah the deep shadowy cabal of suited white men pulling strings. I've heard of that and I disagree with it. I don't think it exists. Maybe there are some big people who basically own their industry, but I refuse to accept that they exist outside of the media and insurance sphere. Media has no power unless government reinforces it, and we regulate the shit out of insurance companies. Now that's not to say that we don't regulate insurance enough, there's plenty more control we the people can and need to take. Maybe there's one or two other industries that are owned by a powerful person. But I refuse to believe that my government that I pay tax to, vote on, and listen to is too weak to snuff out a company that grows to the size of a government. FAANG is 10% as powerful as the US Federal government and I refuse to accept that it's more.

We've seen our government repeatedly stomp out monopolies in the US and outside of it. There are plenty more to stomp out, but just because it hasn't been done yet doesn't discount the strength of us Americans projected by our government. We can change, and its hard.
