At this point run Linux in every device is already a meme.

This is the classical argument that capitalism is the best motivator of development since it is considered natural(selected as dominant till now) and by extension better fit for human nature.

Yet it is destroying itself, meaning he believes human nature will destroy itself, he then go on to say China is Capitalist, more specifically the government, that would assume the role of exploiter, then internally capitalism seem somewhat to be the exploiting structure reinforcing the idea of hierarchy and exploitation that generates more economic value and justify the inequality.

Probably because if it’s working it must mean it is capitalist in someway, they don’t conflate Cuba or another places with Capitalism because they don’t see the countries as economic powers.

The main differences would be that China invest in their workers, and Capitalistic countries don’t, the solution would be invest in the workers, but then he fails to notice that the failure of investing in workers isn’t a miscommunication or mismanagement, but a feature of capitalism itself that deny any handouts or any advantage to the masses to keep it up with the elite.

The statement of the main comment seems to be that capitalism is equal to exploitation and hierarchy, communism(or another placeholder) then is equal to end of suffering, exploitation and hierarchy, that’s why he/she sees capitalism as inevitable and communism and other ideologies seems utopic in comparison.

Some projects try to use a funding bar, that is shown to the user, when the funding is in risk the users know and donate more. The nag screen is effective, but if you are a donor already it can become somewhat annoying.

Thanks, that’s very useful, I noticed that the the donations are a in a low amount compared to the rest of the income, but it is more stable, if possible could you share your experience with the ko-fi platform and donations? Do you think it is an visibility problem, since it’s hard to break from dev sphere to mainstream?

I always imagined some sort of IP royalty, like you have an idea and implement it, then if someone build something over it for profit they need to pay a fixed percentage otherwise it would be free to use basically.

What about a modular software, a base version and the modules are paid ? It would maybe avoid ramification? And the user would have more freedom.

Did you check the temperature of the cpu and gpu? It might be a overheating problem that causes the fps drops.

Cloud services or features monetization are interesting, I’ve seen some companies do a community or a local version and the business version with more features.

I agree, I’ve noticed that there is a push to make people think of AI as human to increase the acceptance, some media(movies,series…others) are stopping to depict it as a danger and more like a guardian or even a sentient companion like it could cross the programming and become human, it’s complex how vulnerable we are to projecting ourselves over other beings or things and develop parasocial or codependent relationships.

guilty untill proven guilty?

Is this really fine? Should we see AI as human?

I prefer AUR packages, but it depends on how many AUR dependencies it uses and how well maintained and used by others it is, I rely mainly on the official repo and try to use AUR and others in a complementary way, I also don’t run any AppImages, just the ones from open-source applications and that I trust minimally.

Why do you consider AppImages as last resort?

I can understand that in a distro the main repo need to be prioritized to avoid bloat of repetitive dependencies that could happen with a lot of AppImages.

I can’t understand why so many people are opposed to it as an supportive role from a practical and complementary perspective.

Imagine being so obscenely rich that your biggest problem is that you can’t say slurs.

Canonical sure know how to name them.

Don’t give scientists ideas, the somewhat dire wolfs are already here and all.

This is sad as fuck people sometimes have nowhere to go

Do you guys remember when internet was the thing and everybody was like: “Look, those dumb fucks just putting everything online” and now is: “Look at this weird motherfucker that don’t post anything online”
