How many years?

The amount of utility I accidentally extract from my phone over the course of a day on one charge is pretty incredible.

The weirdest thing about a cybertruck bomb is that the world has become so shit that it’s not even interesting. Like, I just cannot care because every day something insane happens.

That’s the real fucking signal IMO.

That is my take.

The delusion of grandeur I might suffer would be something like people foster such a strong culture of cooperation and mutual aid that state government operations and programs become obsolete.

That’s a north star. Something to aim for as a concept. But of course we won’t ever land a rocket ship on the actual North Star.

I think like any other political or philosophical view, this is one of those things where you will get one unique answer per each anarchist you ask.

Speaking personally, I think philosophies should be used as tools, and as the best tool for a job.

To me, anarchism means disregarding established authority and working together to achieve whatever a goal is. Ideally cooperatively. Some groups will perform well at this and some will not. Some will perform better under a more traditional organized structure.

I don’t want to subjugate people with anarchist dogma. I want to help people learn to trust themselves and to cooperate. And I want to get better at it myself.

Same as anarchism.

Lots of people valuing self reliance and care for others without regard for our existing leaders and systems. There just happens to also be systems of governments around.

Good thing it’s a wiki!

Thank you

Commodity hardware & open source software for the win.

When my Western Digital NAS was never going to get critical security patches, I was so freaking glad to find out that they just used software raid… I threw the HDDs in a Debian server and never looked back.

It’s certainly nice to have things that are turn-key, but if you can find your way around any OS, just avoid proprietary everything.

Isn’t building a CRM a sort of rite of passage for tech entrepreneur failures?

Grayjay can stream nebula, so there must be a way.

Chatbots can’t “admit” things. They regurgitate text that just happens to be information a lot of the time.

That said, the irony is iron clad.

The dynamics of the game are way different with a Republican Senate and president. I bet they’ll fall in line in a heartbeat if they keep the house.

Take what you can’t afford, support what you can, share if you dare, and do not trade for money.

So the year of the Linux desktop is finally happening

I’ve had 2 multiple day power outages in the Milwaukee area, and 4 or 5 shorter ones over the past few years. It literally never used to happen.
