Normies using Spotify, "what even is this??"

Yeah, it seems like such an unnecessary layer! Why login to your desktop, phone etc then have to login to a server also? I prefer to just open an application that has the feeds direct from source!

Does anyone use the Oneplus 6T? It is suppose to be the most powerful hardware that can run Postmarket or Ubuntu Touch.

So I guess you cannot process anything other than black/white logical fallacies let alone analogies.

People can grow food in the absence of technology - but subsistence living is a hell of time!

nb. Marxists still have no answer for the calculation problem.

What? How the f do you transition from 'not only' to 'isn't necessary'? That is not logic - that is mental gymnastics with a triple back flip! Profit is the PRIMARY motivator! People wish to move away from discomfort more than anything else. Currency is the best way of alleviating discomfort!

Linux and open source in general completely blow apart capitalist arguments that profit motive

Wrong! Linux and open source only shows that the profit motive is not the only motive. One should broaden the definition of profit to encompass value in all its forms. ie A person can gain value from the satisfaction of DIY as it can be self-empowering. One can gain emotional value from sharing. It also invokes the law of reciprocation - value exchange but without a $ sign. The Open source ecosystem is also heavily funded by business who relies on open source components. It is a capital investment.

You do know Capitalism was making the slave trade unfeasable. Technology is superior at mass production. It increasingly made sense to invest in machinery etc. The most skilled slaves were eventually given free reign and only had to pay a fee to their master. White nations and their Capitalist technology ended slavery - at least in the Western world.
