Does disabling install scripts actually do anything though? The attack would still work if put in the code itself, no? The only difference I can see is that it would run when the project is run instead of when the package is installed.
Veganism is quickly becoming an economic necessity.
Instead of your ISP seeing every site you go to, a different company sees every site you go to.
VPNs have their uses, but avoiding surveillance is not one of those uses.
How would you produce solar panels when living “off grid”? You need a large, integrated economy to be able to produce such complicated hardware. This is why solar punk is fundamentally an elitist ideology. You look down your nose on “authoritarians”, and have a holier-than-thou attitude toward them, but the society you envision is impossible without them.
Empirical examples… that you have not provided?
I’m starting to question whether the free press should even exist, or can exist under capitalism.
It cannot. To begin with, having one rich fuck have their voice be amplified to a thousand or a hundred thousand times that of the average person, merely because their wealth allows them to buy and therefore control media, is obviously not democratic.
Dangit, I had most of the right ideas but missed one move
It’s really easy to show this even with a known problem. Ask an LLM to play a game of chess, and then give it 1. h3 as a first move. They always screw up immediately, by making an illegal move. This happens because 1. h3 is hardly ever played, so it isn’t part of it’s model. In fact, it’ll usually play a move that ‘normally’ responds to h3, like Bh5 for example
Sure but we’re talking about people who got laid of, they’re not getting a salary anyway. Unless starting a business gets rid of unemployment benefits I guess? But you can hold of on officially forming the business until you have some clients. I’m not saying it’d be easy, but I think it’s better than being unemployed
Tbf, unless there’s some massive capital expense that I’m not thinking about, you don’t really need any capital for doing software related work besides a computer, which most people already have anyway and maybe some office space. Software is about as capital lite as an industry can be, so if making a workers co-op under capitalism is going to work in any industry, it would be software.
FYI it seems about half of these have been taken down
In the same way that anti-racists can still have unaddressed racist beliefs, vegans can still have unaddressed carnist beliefs that they should try to get out of their minds. Thinking of uneaten meat as a ‘waste’ of food is one such belief. It means you still ultimately think of non-human animals as products to be eaten. Like, do you consider a burial to be a ‘waste’ of good human meat? Why do you have a different opinion on non-human meat? If you don’t like seeing them rotting in the trash, you can give them a burial.
Unless you do consider burials a waste of resources I guess, then keep doing what you’re doing.
Improving people’s well-being? So, like making sure they have good food and a place to live and medicine and clothes and transport and some entertainment and stuff? So, having a good economy?
Yeah, tech peaked in 1991 with the creation of vim. It’s been mostly downhill since then
Not a documentary, but The Sickle and the Hammer is very good.
Any hope of radical change through elections.
How does that even work? Like what do they say to the machine if they can’t speak to a person?
