When billionaires preach "abundance," remember that the richest man in the world killed the poorest children in the world just for the LOLs.

And if these AI fascists get their way, most of us will join the starvation class.

@Mayobrot @riz0me @bubbles though, I have to admit CJ the X is not bad, his comments are quite sharp. But still, he enjoys throwing words around that have heavy context.
@Mayobrot @riz0me @bubbles To go back to my original comment, I don't disagree with what you say, there is something there, but I believe you are using the wrong word, which sets the wrong framework.

@Mayobrot @riz0me @bubbles I can't base a discussion on libertarianism on what a random guys says on YouTube, sorry. We are talking about ideological concepts that have centuries of background. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarianism_(disambiguation)

Btw, what the guy says about fashion has a name, that was very fashionable :-) 5 or 10 years ago: social signaling.

Libertarianism (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

Oh, many things that give purpose. Recognition among peers, friends, team mates. Enjoyment of interacting with people that have interesting things to day.

Many of us maintain blogs for decades, updating them as technologies change, spending hours and days to make them look prettier, to load faster, to be easier to read, for no profit, only those little joys. (2/2)

@riz0me @bubbles There may be many ways to interpret “libertarian culture” on the Internet, but for me at the core is freedom, privacy, distrust of centralized control, self-sovereignty. The web is social by definition, at the very core we have links that connect content and ideas in ways never before possible.

> the profit motive […] what else is there… (1/2)

@bubbles I have no clue how "libertarian culture" and freedom is at odds with creating "cozy corners". The post is trying to say something, but instead of saying it, it tries to find some deeper ideological concept that's just not there.

It's a decade since Brexit, so a decade since I left the UK, after having lived there for about 20 years

Putting my rights to the vote was enough of a red line for me to scarper but, given the British tendency to vote for radical change, I expected the outcome

Haven't returned since, even to visit

@mrdesjardins @bubbles It was way over my head at the time and not actually worth the effort, but if you build something like this, let me know!
