Given a choice between #basicincome and #jobgurantees, I'll take #basicincome. I'm not interested in working a government-issued bullshit job.

"Analizzando l'esperienza degli stati socialisti e la loro conclusione e' chiaro che nel socialismo reale non vi e' stato alcun cambiamento nello stile e nei modi di vita rispetto alla vita capitalista del resto del mondo. Percio` un progetto di liberazione del Kurdistan e della societa` non poteva pervenire da una soluzione statalista" . A. Ocalan

@Monta questi hanno ceduto l'attività al socio di minoranza e ora non sanno da che parte girarsi per non prenderlo nel culo
> My son berates me for that too. I just am constantly penniless.
- that wasn't my intention, please accept my apologies if I sounded like if I was berating you in even the slightest way!
"We're building a module that allows autonomous vehicles to understand the state of mind of humans out on the road," says co-founder Sam Anthony. He told us that the software will "give autonomous vehicles the ability to look at a person and say, in a human-like way, 'This person wants to cross the road, this person knows that my car is there."
And gather all sorts of marketing data in the meantime...
@windruffle @q based on my experience, quality hardware is king. Cheap laptops/desktops/smartphones will ALWAYS give you hell when trying to liberate them from proprietary software due to the tricks used to keep them cheap in the first place (ie. obscure/undocumented hardware, knock-off chips, poor coding etc...)
@freakazoid speaking of nazi language and communication, it's worth remembering that Goebbels basically learned all his PR tricks from Edward Bernays who is considered to be the "father of public communication" and himself worked for the tobacco industry to spread cigarette addiction among women... The cherry on the cake? Bernays was a jew...
@windruffle ah, workarounds, the daily bread of the linux user <3
@GliOperai non conosco le leggi giapponesi e non so se da loro esiste un reato di apologia nazista/fascista come da noi... A meno che non si stratti di un giapponese che, su server occidentali, viene a decantare apertamente le lodi dei bruni. In quel caso mannaia immediata, direi...
@windruffle I don't want to be the harbinger of bad news, but based on what I can see in the screenshot the last command (dkms install) is the one that's going to give you hell...
@GliOperai non mi stupirebbe, francamente. Quanti occidentali non saprebbero distinguere la bandiera giapponese attuale dallla versione fascio-imperiale di anteguerra?
è l'attesa dell'inverno essa stessa inverno?
col cazzo amici, col cazzo.
"Capitalism was built on the bodies of millions from the very start. From the late 17th century onwards, the transatlantic slave trade became a pillar of emergent capitalism. Much of the wealth (…) was made from the enslaved labour of Africans. The capital accumulated from slavery – from tobacco, cotton and sugar – drove the industrial revolution in Manchester and Lancashire (…) The west is built on wealth stolen from the subjugated, at immense human cost."

As we're approaching pre-French Revolution inequality levels and poverty is spreading across the west like wildfire, capitalist aristocracy turns to FT's experts to discover new ways to spend the wealth they stole from us.
TAKE. OUT. THE. GUILLOTINE.

Seeing how deeply oblivious people are about the inner workings of the neoliberal system is both frightening and fascinating. Some friends of mine were chatting about Amazon (because prime days), afraid of "the consequences of such concentration of wealth" and wondering "how did Bezos become a multi-billionaire in just 12 years", yet they somehow couldn't connect the dots... Debord was right: the spectacle is invisible to those living in it.
"Last year [the] collective worth [of India's 119 billionaires] amounted to $440bn – more than in any other country, bar the US and China. By contrast, the average person in India earns barely $1,700 a year. Given its early stage of economic development, India’s new hyper-wealthy elite have accumulated more money, more quickly, than their plutocratic peers in almost any country in history."
The miracles of neoliberalism....

"These 4,000 acres of autonomous territory, this ‘zone to defend’, has existed despite the state and capitalism for nearly a decade – and no government can allow such a place to flourish. This is why France’s biggest police operation since May 1968, at a cost of €400,000 a day, has been mobilised to evict us, with 2,500 gendarmes, armoured personnel carriers (APCs), bulldozers, rubber bullets, drones, 200 cameras and over 11,000 tear gas and stun grenades."
"(...) Soros published an updated version of Opening the Soviet System, titled Underwriting Democracy, which revealed his new strategy: he would dedicate himself to building permanent institutions that would sustain the ideas that motivated anticommunist revolutions, while modelling the practices of open society for the liberated peoples of eastern Europe."
"Liberated" as in: "now finally free to sell themselves at the lowest price possible to serve as Europe's private third world"
"For him, (...) a free society depends on free (...) markets. But this assumed connection has proven to be a false one. The decades since the end of the cold war have demonstrated that, without a perceived existential enemy, capitalism tends to undermine the very culture of trust, compassion and empathy upon which Soros’s “open society” depends, by concentrating wealth in the hands of the very few."
The freer the market, the freer the people, huh?
