Yep. And if you mention this, you’re a commie and capitalism is the greatest thing ever and under socialism we will all starve and have nothing and it never worked look at Cuba.

Like capitalism works, and there are no imaginable alternatives.

Just don’t use resources to produce that much useless crap to just dump it in a landfill or burn it? Is it so hard to understand?

This kind of reads like meditation, these words somehow have a calming effect. Like a call to be conscious and just take in the current moment and the surrounding vibes.

Also, I’m kind of high right now, so maybe it’s just that, but thanks for your insights!

For getting a grip in current web development, I would recommend fullstackopen.com - it’s a free online course by the University of Helsinki and starts from basically zero, and gives you a lot of insights into web dev.

It may take some time, but it’s really worth it and an overall great course.

You certainly have a valid point and I agree with you, but it is not nice to call people idiots.

Story: I was on a bus once, another passenger was a guy with a big McD Coke. We got off at the same station. Here, each station has a trash can.

So this guy walks right by the trash can and drops his fucking coke right next to it. He could have extended his arm like 10 cm more, and the coke would have gone into the trash can. But he chose to drop it on the floor.

This was years ago, and I think this day broke my faith in humanity a little.

Don’t buy things then.

I see this as minimalism, there is no need to own loads of stuff.

If I don’t buy useless stuff, there is less useless stuff that needs to be produced, and I have less useless stuff to take care off.

But what I really hate is when I buy some not-that-useless stuff that I actually need, and then there’s some “free merchandise” or “goodies”, which usually are just some cheap branded advertising items. And now I am forced to acknowledge the existence of this crap and have to throw it away. So this random crap was produced, packaged and shipped to me, just to end up in the trash and cause some minor annoyance.

And there is a fucking lot of random crap that ends up this way.

I still feel addressed when there’s something about “young people”. At 34.
