Lemmy feels miffs that Hasbara does not waste resources on here

Shameless too!

But that headline is provocative, it gets people going.

Yes 🐸

This how people end up on the foss purist path… Been hurt too many times for be trusting any bros again.

They do this every where, india’s regime is just looking like idiots here for pusbing too hard lol

Price of the centralization?

If you punished this corpo for rent seeking, you are hurting the wagies 🤡

I make a distinction between understanding the inherent friction of Labor and Capital along with a broad and deep awareness of the stacked playing field

I don’t think you did so i clarified. You essentially possited: “But ohh gee, if idiots don’t buy this slop, company loses money, and developer loses the job”

See:

That’s a pretty short term view though, no? Presumably if an expected revenue stream does not generate flow to supplant the initial capital outlay, said business will not be a going concern for long?

If enough people feel this way to punish the rent seeker, he has a choice to adjust his rent seeking model to appease the paying customer. If he fails to do so, that’s a classic “free market” in the raw dog form, as it should too!

Your analysis entirely skips this key point, which is frankly the entire thesis for “vote with your money”

Most people aint here to get freebies for nothing, they will pay when it is proper to do so. But we will not be feeding a parasites. media and software is 100% discretionary so we have this choice here. rent and healthcare will require more rogue tactics.

wage worker is never aligned long term with his employer… at best short term.

404media is one of the few outlet doing journalism in the sea of fake news.

Then seed HQ version to give back ;)

NOTE: DON’T DO THIS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING

start your own reserve fund but this one kinda requires to already gave sufficient assets to eat day 1 adverse event.

you are attempting to align the interest of a wage slave with owner of corporation, corpo owners literally tell workers they aint shit and they are easily replacement.

think game industry crunch and fire practice… after rockstar lays off GTA6 staff, you buying the game does not help the laid off guy

swim should deff get it backed up but if merchant provides value, there nothing from with a subscription but swim should always hedge ;)

It seems to me that many of them don’t even know that what they and their families are doing is “piracy”…

Yes🐸

Between you [and] the developer there is a mega corp… Programmer is paid a salary. Corpo pays bare minimum for labour. It doesnt matter if you buy product personally or not.

With that being said if everybody did the same, it would hurt the corpo but thats the goal… They need to get their act together and while idiots keep paying blindly, they wont.

Stanford and MIT are private institutions…

why we rocked all research for decades.

Yeah no shit, american taxpayer is paying for a lot of base research while not getting any return for their investments beyond jobs and ability to buy products from some rent seeker.

That doesnt feel very capitalist to me.

Why shouldnt US keep property rights resulting from the research it has funded? License it to private companies for a fair fee?

Why should private enterpise end up with this IP?

Taxapyer is essentially enriching some owners of companies who in return pricr gouging the working population.

But hey some slaves got the jobs and you us getting a factory is “return” enough for you? Doesnt look like our government officials are negotiating these properly imho

The taxpayer return is that we can finally start bringing cutting edge fabrication back to the US

Hmm… Would a corporate entity accept such a return?

I dont think so in fact they expect us to to pay for their R&D.

Why does private capital gets special treatment and has requiremets to provide economics return to the owner while taxpayer’s fund are treated like free money to increase returns for the owners of private capital.?

Asking for friend.

I am sure min wage work doing shiti job really benefits from subsidizing rich peopels prodits lol

We are all a family 🤡
