@ercanbrack@mastodon.online linux audio is needed. By someone. Doesn't matter if it's one "someone" or the whole world. That's the only argument you need.

@sortius @phocks guillotines won't help. We need an anarchist revolution. https://crimethinc.com/2019/04/08/against-the-logic-of-the-guillotine-why-the-paris-commune-burned-the-guillotine-and-we-should-too Let me be clear, I want a real anarchist revolution, not the media stereotype caricature, I want a world where people collaboratively collectively govern themselves without unnecessary hierarchy, a world with compassion, mutual aid, and voluntary socialism instead of capitalist greed and poverty and divisions between people (borders/nation states).
CrimethInc.

CrimethInc. : Against the Logic of the Guillotine : Why the Paris Commune Burned the Guillotine—and We Should Too

Fetishizing the guillotine is like fetishizing the state: it means celebrating an instrument of murder that will always be used chiefly against us.

@pho4cexa I think it does indeed come from a similar place. (Also, people throwing tokens into models like gamblers and slot machines, same kind of mentality...)

@ifixcoinops@retro.social I don't understand why this one didn't "do numbers" (whatever that means on fedi) https://retro.social/@ifixcoinops/114582397585906281 Kitten pics should "do numbers." Especially on Fedi.

@misjavanlaatum@mastodon.gamedev.place @imacrea@mamot.fr fedi is ad hostile, llm hostile (or at least highly critical of hype) and influencer/celebrity/parasocial bs hostile. That helps too.

@wchr The biggest mistake of the entire internet was allowing for profit use. Adware is malware. I've been saying that for a very long time. This is just another illustration of that.

@sindum @liaizon @julian also it's token-hungry the way a slot machine is, and just as manipulative. Seems that the mindset of people that get easily sucked into spending lots of money on chasing the perfect prompt is the same mindset that can get caught up in slot machine gambling (it's the same addiction mechanism) and house always wins. (In short, don't get scammed. Someone else just posted this other link that also feels relevant: https://softwarecrisis.dev/letters/llmentalist/)

@Julie@social.coop Fedi should be as antiracist as possible and hostile to all forms of prejudice and bigotry. We should also be hostile to anyone that advocates bigoted ideas. Including capitalism, which is inherently racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, etc. and will destroy all humans and all other life on this planet if we can't stop it from dividing us.
