    There are all sorts of problems with this narrative. Today's Microsoft isn't the Microsoft of Monkeyboy Ballmer - it's much worse than that. Windows 10 is the most invasive and user disrespecting operating system ever. And it's not even open source.

    They still hate GPL. They still use patent trolls against folks. The Microsoft of today isn't so much loving open source as following the "embrace, extend, extinguish" strategy from the original powerpoints.

    And the Linux Foundation also has its problems. Having kernel developers financially depend on big companies including Microsoft isn't necessarily good for users. It's like the W3C and its membership, and how that impacts on standards decisions.

    @cosine I read slaughterhouse five a couple of times while waiting at an airport for a delayed flight to Portugal. That was long ago. I liked its grim humour, and any kind of critical narrative about WW2 was still unusual back then. The WW2 tales I grew up with were all about heroism and "the last good war" or "the people's war against Hitlerism", but in Slaughterhouse Five the author depicts the darker side in which the allies also committed war crimes via "area bombing".

    Well but if you really want a story of open source in the 1980s it would have to include public domain, the problems of shareware and also cracktros and magazine code listings.

    I don't really care about dominance of this or that. I just want to do my own thing and not get snaggled on your proprietary whatever. Oh, and I disrespect your cloud. Don't give your means of information production to someone who doesn't give a damn.

    There have been a few cooking robots, and it depends on what your definition is. A microwave oven has sensors and an actuator and some sort of embedded controller, so it could be a robot under some definitions.

    This looks kind of unappealing though, so even if I had the cash I don't think I'd be rushing to buy one. Even with my rudimentary skills, I could probably do this manually far more easily and without drips or setting anything on fire.

    What I'd have in mind as a cooking robot would be something like Roboexotica but for making cakes rather than cocktails. There needs to be a chaotic element where you're not really sure whether the robot is going to bake or start a revolt.

    Right now, nearly nobody is prepared for a revolution. And not even prepared for preparing for a revolution. But the option of transition is there every day, on every boring Wednesday

    imo thinking about a new economic system requires rethinking about how goods are produced, the management of the way things are produced, how demand and supply mesh, the management of inherently scarce resources like radio spectrum and land, resolutions to scarcity when possible, how it interlocks with politics, prioritisation, etc. Communism and Capitalism present their own answers to each of these and the space in between but I think there can be other ways.

    @elizafox The Third Way stuff never appealed to me, and went horribly wrong under the last UK labour government. Innovations are required though, and one idea I read about recently is that of the coordinator class and job complexes.
