I spent a decade as a full time Tcl developer and even I don’t use fossil.

Puns are their own rewords!

Profit is created from the output of productive labor. The amount of profit varies depending on the efficiency of the market and the company.

Companies are force multipliers for labor. The company’s profit comes from that force mulitplication, not by withholding profit from the worker who generated it.

Profit can only be made by exploiting labour. There can’t be any other way

This is a bad take and suffers from overly-simplistic thinking. Corporations are force multipliers for labor and the economic value of your labor is increased by joining forces with others.

Another way to look at this is that you’ve linked to an article that necessarily lacks the entire last eight years of context necessary to discuss an article written in 2024. Please, join the rest of us in our current reality if you want to discuss what’s happening now.

The triangle of rhetoric is appeal to authority, appeal to emotion, appeal to logic. They don’t accept any of it thay didn’t come from within thier social group so there is no convinving them and that is why Tronald Dump can say he could shoot somebody on 5th avenue and have them call it fake news despite being recorded.

This is spot on. Delve into the inevitable “Politics and Religion” section of any old school web forum for white guy hobbies and nine times out of ten it’s going to be knee deep in a loud circle jerk consisting of these exact guys whipped into a frenzy over nothing. Look, but don’t touch, it’s like a buzz saw in there.

. . . increasing inequality, fueling injustice, destroying the planet, etc.

This is such an astute and accurate description of crypto and mining. You are a textbook example of projection.

You can literally die at any second no matter what your age. That doesn’t seem like a well-considered criterion.

We should make sure he gets the big piece of chicken

DMCA was designed to prevent intellectual property infringement, not as a censorship tool.

I wanted the gay dude who makes Fox News his bitch.

Still pretty fucking hyped to vote, either way.

What makes the most sense is ignoring your fallacious false choice.

It doesn’t even make sense as a conspiracy. I hope Biden lives a long, calm life in retirement. But if he did die right now it would be a huge boost to Harris who would now be running for re-election as an incumbent.

Plus, all those dorky “45/47” red hats suddenly become obsolete as Harris is sworn in as the 47th President.

If you don’t have upvotes and downvotes turned on then I’m even more confused why you let them influence how you comment.

Yeah thats why i opt for low effort comments because even if you’re right you’re downvoted

A day later and I notice that your low effort comment was downvoted, but the other comment with detail and explanation is 9:1 upvoted. Maybe it’s the low effort part that’s earning you the downvotes and not the underlying opinion.

Lemmy community is garbo.

All you post and all you read is all this place will ever be (apologies to Pink Floyd).

Thanks for helping demonstrate the dynamic I was describing

I’ve learned to keep my mouth shut when my liberal/progressive friends discuss gun control. The left side of that debate is marbled with misunderstandings, misrepresentations of fact, and flawed reasoning.

Gun control isn’t a very important issue to me, but much of the liberal side of the debate just makes me cringe. I’ve learned to just shut up about it, though, because when I speak up I usually get shouted down and abused for going against the groupthink.

No fucking way I ever vote Republican again, though.

Full totality here on a mostly cloudy day. We did get a few peeks of the sun, but mostly it just got dark and cold for 3 minutes.
