When I learned about it first time I thought it sounded too good to be true. Turns out, it is just that good.

Not because the capital spared from denied meals (or production thereof) are going directly towards yachts, but because the capitalist mode of production requires the threat of starvation to force us into unfavourable compensation for our labour.

Really, we could easily do both at this point (and more), but since greed knows no limits, there is also no limit to what pain the capitalist class will impose on us in order to extract surplus value.

We already produce enough food for a billion more people than what exists, but still around a billion live in starvation to deter the rest of us.

That is because there can only be individual freedom through social cooperation, like taxes.

You mean the fucking pigs that murdered a journalist for being complicit in exposing them? They are all in prison now though, right? (spoiler: they are not)

LPT: In NixOS you can fix this by adding

environment.systemAds.enable = false;

to your configuration.nix file 😎

It is a work of art!

They just started counting all my computers and virtual machines on which I run Arch and Nixos btw!

Just going to leave this one here:

You install Hannah Montana Linux on their cars and their spouses.

Queue any discussion of Wayland/Xorg, Systemd, flatpacks, snaps, distro choice, ~~Pipewire/Pulseaudio~~ (last one is easy, Pipewire ftw), Vim/Emacs, GPL/MIT, immutability, etc..

It is sexism to make it out to be a "he said she said" situation when a man says it was okay for him to kiss a woman and she says it was something she did not want. You disregard her personal autonomy when you say that him claiming she wanted it is as valid as her stating she did not.

If I hit you in the face with my fist claiming you wanted it, should I get off the hook since as you deem "no one can tell whether you wanted me to do it or not"?

For anyone wondering the "soccer incident" refers to his bad take on Luis Rubiales kissing Jenni Hermoso without permission.

EDIT: Fix a typo

There is about 8.1 billion people in the world. Assuming romantic cliches to be true and that we all have exactly one soulmate out there, we would have a very hard time sifting them out. If you were to use exactly one second at meeting a person it would take you 257 years to meet everyone alive on earth at this moment, which due to human life span being significantly shorter and the influx of new people makes the task essentially impossible without a spoonful of luck. Moral of the story: If you believe you have found your soul mate, be extra kind to them today.
