See this kind of shit is why I pirate, not because I can’t afford to pay $10 a month. When the $10 for a lot of content becomes $10 per month per piece of media you like, and you can’t watch it on your platform of choice, and you can’t watch it on a flight without paying more or not at all, this makes the $5 per month I pay for a VPN sound like a far better service.
Why is it rooted in Nazi propaganda?
A lot of transit can just be electrified with overhead wires
I am not talking about individual choices but rather the social factors influencing those choices, please read a history book
But their countries are only poor because of the imperialism of rich countries for centuries. You’re saying they should be grateful for rich economies helping them develop, when those rich economies are the reason they are poorer to begin with.
Not sure if this is directly applicable but there’s the concept of dual power, where you can organize a bottom up power structure that takes some power from the regular government without needing to either submit to it or outright overthrow it. With that said it has only ever been successful in cases where the government is incredibly unstable to begin with.
It’ll also have third party apps. Wondering how hard it would be to import a European iphone into the US.
Probably they would make the battery removable from the bottom with some screw on the bottom. At least that’s how I’d do it if I were them considering the batteries are linear anyway and are usually in the parts sticking down.
I’m somewhat undecided here, because ultimately I don’t care for federated services to become dominant at all costs, nor do I care if they shrink slightly. I want the users of these services to voluntarily choose them based on the principles that federated social media stands for right now. My personal opinion right now is let them federate, but defederate the minute the “extend” starts. But we’ll see.
Perhaps my opinions are different from others but I feel like these websites are forgetting that they’re an optional part of people’s lives. There are plenty of things I can spend my time on besides reddit and YouTube, and Netflix is forgetting that it’s marginally more convenient than piracy.
Hot take: the narrative that politicians do not understand technology due to their age is giving them too much credit. They have entire offices full of staffers whose entire job is to explain these things to them in ways they understand, as I am sure they have for some of the more important things. They just don’t care because their purpose is to serve corporations, not the public.
