I guess the rape was resistance as well since it boosts morale

FOSS is not necessarily a rejection of the profit motive, it just says that there shouldn't be restrictions to redistribute work to the masses. Just look at Linux itself. The project is maintained largely by contributions from (big tech)[https://lwn.net/Articles/915435/] even though it's under the most restrictive copyleft license.

Also, I'd rather the factory that has the incentive to reduce prices to compete with others instead of the one that has all the incentive to increase costs (wages).

Besides, you can absolutely create any co-op you want in a capitalists system. If you think it's just as innovative then just go and start one instead of screeching at people that capitalism bad.

Show the alternatives then.

And yeah the capitalists are the ones that drive the innovation since they're the ones that allocate the capital where it would generate the most return, which sometimes means innovation.

Yeah you're right let's follow the great innovations of the USSR, North Korea, Vietnam, and Cuba

My local mayor wants to increase funding for the public transit, but he didn't say ACAB, so I'm not gonna vote for him even if the other other guy is gonna slash the public transit funding by half 😤😤

I think a lot of people in this community consider it a lifestyle to pirate media.

Do you know what community this is?

It's pretty hilarious that any person would call the totalitarian, chronic food shortage stricken, ostracized North Korea "the Good Korea"

I just saw a post about eco-terrorism and people mostly agreed. Lemmy is 100% extreme.

It says that trusting Mozilla for the location backend is the same as trusting Google. I may be biased or something because I use Mozilla services but that's just insane to me. Mozilla's business model is not the same as Google's. Are there no network based location services for Graphene other tjan Google? GPS location sucks sometimes and I'd like to have a proper alternative if possible.

Yeah but those are the issues that I have. The idea is to have a private phone where you don't have to worry about Google harvesting your data and keeping it forever. But when you have an OS that has all these features and then use the Google services that take all that data, what is the point?

Also it’s quite a security issue since it needs signature spoofing to work which is insecure by definition.

According to the last paragraph here, the spoofing at least in Calyx is limited to only microG. It's less secure than a sandboxed thing, but I don't think it's gonna be that bad.

What was the struggle 20 years ago?
