    i dont wanna argue with the crippled remains of the antiwork movement, bc it frustrates me to no end. but please read some antiwork theory before saying so much dumb shit all at once.

  • Some subreddits could be paywalled, hints Reddit CEO - 9to5Mac
  • During the call, the Reddit co-founder said the company would begin testing AI-powered search results later this year [and] that search could one day be a significant source of advertising revenue for the company.

    this does not seem to be an alternative to the existing method of profiting from ads etc., but more of an additional way to make loads of money

  • can we be all rich together?
  • i mean, thats great! but the moneys gotta come from somewhere, and in most cases someone else is being exploited.

    most non-profits actually suffer from this issue where getting funding is the number one priority.

    the organization has to bend its methods to what will look good on paper vs what would actually be best for their cause

  • can we be all rich together?
  • what is ur answer to this system?

  • can we be all rich together?
  • theres companies making money off of prison labor, if u want a not very subtle example. in the US, prisons are also for-profit institutions, making it even more insidious.

    then ur typical capitalist labor situation ofc. ur boss makes more off of their workers labor than their workers get paid. this "surplus value" is how bosses get richer than the ppl who work for them; all without having to do any actual work of their own.

  • can we be all rich together?
  • what if it means taking other ppls freedom away from them in the process?

  • -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MEME-----
  • yea would be interesting. but im also too lazy to type all that text in by hand to verify

  • At the end of the day, they're a lot similar than they'd like to admit
  • yeee not quite horseshoe theory tho, is it?

    after all, the meme is just pointing out that both conservatives and tankies are pro-authority. said nothing about left and right

  • Children as young as 7 'arrested' by German police at Gaza demos
  • Iirc this can fall under antisemitism as it impies the wish to "destroy" izzy. I don't agree, but thats why.

    yea, im aware of the bullshit they make up so they can crack down on protests.

    doesnt make it true tho.

  • Children as young as 7 'arrested' by German police at Gaza demos
  • also german here. the demo i recently went to was cut short by police for no apparent reason.

    also many others are being blocked by the cops before they get to happen.

    this country is also raiding organizers homes and recently banned a group called "palästina solidarität duisburg" which organized protests as well.

    and its all happening in the name of what they call "staatsräson" or some vague ideas of chants like "from the river to the sea, palestine will be free" being antisemitic.

    lastly, the idea that cops give a shit abt following the law is ridiculous if u ask me

  • Is there a way to make it so that your devices (sd cards, USBs, phones, laptops) etc can't be copied without knowing the password ?
  • sooo theres no way of preventing ur phones storage from being copied. it has to be stored on a chip somewhere, and that chips contents can be copied.

    there is however a different way of protecting the data.

    a strong encryption password is the only real protection against this kind of attack. modern phones have a chip called a Trusted Platform Module, that is capable of storing secret keys in a way thats very difficult to get to even with physical access to the device.

    the way i understand encryption on modern phones, is that ur unlock PIN is passed to the TPM, which then passes a secret key (longer and more complex password than ur PIN) to the system to decrypt ur files.

    this way, if u only copy the phones storage, u will have to bruteforce this very complex key thats stored in the TPM. or u would have to try to hack or brute-force the TPM itself, which is hardened against those types of attacks specifically.

    having said all that, idk if its even reasonable to expect a phone to ever be secure against targeted government agencies attacks. best protection is not having anything personal on ur phone in the first place. so set disappearing messages on messengers, etc.

    TL;DR use a long pin or a strong password for ur phone and try to remove any incriminating information from ur phone as soon as its not needed there anymore.

  • Plato vs Democracy
  • i mean, good point. so what if u have a vote to kick someone for stalling or filibustering?

  • Plato vs Democracy
  • what about consensus systems? instead of going for a majority, u discuss different solutions until everyone is satisfied or at least ok with the proposed plan

  • looking for a specific downloader website

    hi all, i saw a post (or perhaps it was in the comments) about 1-2 weeks ago of a website to download any youtube/vimeo/instagram/tiktok/whatever video/audio in many different formats. it was a FOSS website. dark background, with maybe red text in places? on mobile, it had tabs on the bottom for video/audio/other.

    i tried searching for it for a while now with no success. was hoping someone here mightve seen it too and bookmarked it..
