I think if, culturally, we have a value shift (it's already happening imo) then we can properly commodify important aspects nature. e.g., how much value is there in reducing in our CO2 output? How much value is there in preserving these species? Right now, we don't place enough value on it, and that's why I think regulations are incredibly important in a capitalist system. We certainly need more of it, but we also need it globally so companies can't just jump ship to other places where those values aren't in place.

I can agree with the "so far" qualifier. Things can always be improved, and yes many other systems look great on paper. I am just waiting for the evidence of those other systems functioning in practice. Personally, I would not my country to be the guinea pig in case it backfires. I am content with my western country and its generally current standard of living over past generations and civilizations.
I'm not kidding, in the US at least there is growing divide between the genders and anything that "represents them." We saw it first with review bombing of movies like Joker and then Ms Marvel. It was a tit for tat with incels and femcels going at it. I try to ignore it, but it's so toxic and ruins nice things for everyone else.
lol this is so painfully accurate, especially in internet culture where people feel inadequate in real life so they spend their time online wielding their swords of intellect.
Diablo 4 apparently is doing well and rather well reviewed too. Seems like their best title since StarCraft 2
$125 per day for the lowest budget film possible ie lowest rate possible as an actor? Seems pretty ok to me given the ROI on a 250k budget film. It's only upwards from there. Again, I'm not sure what you expect. Wannabe actors are a dime a dozen. Supply and demand.
Even after silicone lubing all my molex they still suck ass. Hate those things so much
Get me dem numbers then with your counterpoint.
Much more expensive? Have you looked at how much it costs to build subways in the US compared to EU? It's absolutely insane. We are failing to do this affordably. https://www.npr.org/2023/06/26/1184420745/why-building-public-transit-in-the-us-costs-so-much
Is Lemmy always this ridiculously apocalyptic? Do you guys need some help?
