claytonia perfoliata in europe:

@Nivamarina@mamot.fr i try to be friendly to others, though i tend to be ranting quite a bit about things :)

♲ @michaelhoch@pluspora.com:

Nur jedem Zweiten, der 1980 geboren wurde, gelinge es noch, mehr zu verdienen als die Eltern, führt Friedrichs auf. Die Chancengleichheit lahmt. Die Erzählung der 1970er-Jahre, dass jeder durch Arbeit zu bescheidenem Wohlstand gelangen und diesen geniessen kann, stimmt nicht mehr. Die Vermögensverteilung in Deutschland entspräche inzwischen der der USA, erfährt sie vom Vermögensforscher Markus Grabka. Die Arbeiterklasse ist Geschichte – und besser wird’s nicht - infosperber

@niclas i only want my peace and not be constantly fucked with by big organizations. insurances, ISPs, energy providers, the state, etc. every single one is a swamp of corruption and everybody knows it.

reminder that virtue signaller is afraid of donating to RMS supporters while using Github owned by Microsoft which has been nothing but anti-trust violations and has treated their employees like shit with perma-temping for decades.

i have the "slight" suspicion that the german "social market economy" just combines the worst of all worlds: spending half of your pay for dubious forced state insurances who don't pay if you need them and hypercapitalism destroying everything because _they_ are wealthy enough that the rules don't apply.

it's really kafkaesque if you think about it.

Brave hero (with nothing better to do than shit-talk people online) trashing me because Soapbox FE oppresses trans people.

@iron_bug @ElfLord tesla cars are unsafe and externalize environmental problems to where lithium is produced (as do all battery electric cars). meanwhile the space stuff creates a massive amount of waste for questionable returns (starlink). the only good thing are the reusable rockets. hyperloop is another thing with immense power and ressource usage but completely unrealistic to deploy on a large scale, we can't even maintain roads and other infrastructure properly.

imo, for every big problem we currently have the solution should be to do less instead of enabling more. less cars, less long range transportation where not required. internet would be fine with slower speeds if everything wasn't bloated that much. even movies would be fine on slower speeds, the compression algorithms are amazing but the resolution is increasing constantly eating the savings. less meat, eating not only the best parts but also kidneys etc. as it was common.

i think that musk also knows these things, he isn't dumb, but ignores them as he would make less profit.

@ElfLord he's a psychopath making the world actively worse by everything he does, would be my take :ablobblewobble:
