Free is abused? Feeding corporations to make more profit... AND then not paying developers?...
How does that work for you / us?...
Feeding corporations AND not even paying the developers / individuals?
Corporations who use those under them to prop them up?
Seems like a bit of bum deal even without hating I don't get how it works more than what we have already and could stick to more than create new monsters...
I think that's a limitation of FOSS / Open Source though I guess I'm saying also how good corporations are at abusing it at the same time (as well as saying we might know better than to give it to them just like that in a bad process... if you agree).
Clever people also probably have a hard time not doing things the like doing and end up still doing things even when they make little sense (for who it's for or if there is little money in it) and simply can't even keep a lid on it if they see their work being abused if they tried!).
That's where I think we could say we have enough people doing as we have had plenty and look what people did (suck us dry and still expect more)...
It's probably time naturally from seeing diminishing returns / lack of improvement in this to switch areas of us 'digging' there and look at what we're doing and for who... and do something else or more people orientated.
At some point any game is 'enough is enough' and seeing it flanked constantly and used against us by corporations means just leaving them to that game as we can't win (lack of resources, banks yadayadayada) and at least give it a rest for while unless you are actually think you changing people's mentality here (not just releasing tech for corporations to pick up on, patent, remix, repackage etc).
This is why I value GNU as it has at least a kind of philosophy, legal aspect and many more things connected towards a humanitarian endpoint in it's usage (even if that is also abused and maybe is similar to everything else hmm)
I don't want to stop people dead in their tracks or try to show all progress as being bad... but well it is actually possible that is the case.
In bad hands well, you can imagine all goes wrong... so ask if corporations and governments are doing well scandal after scandal... and paying the right people?
Fuck it don't make me any more free stuff! Just don't give them ammunition please!
So without too much emotion I think that's the case and video supports that.
"OK WHAT'S YOUR ANSWER"
I don't claim 1 answer other than fixing / changing people's mentality on how they do things / use it and even the problems working together to develop it... (such as money, person stuff that blows up projects etc)
So more on that only if you ask. Just enough is enough for now,
Computers and code being faster than people BEAT people in many ways (even if you didn't use you plugin that way).
That the main message that currently it's not working out too well considering opposition feeding from us (you, me, them) and not giving a shit apart from profits. The average person DOESN'T UNDERSTAND the shit you do and obviously losing out to the speed and code versus understanding and technology wins (it's your fault AND there's but more your fault if you are more clever in seeing other people are stupid to stop giving average people and corporations hammers to play with!!)... so please help by thinking about that and consider that less is actively doing something to solve that (it is the solution while doing a bit more other stuff) as way of not letting it get out of hand and actually working on the humans that use these things more than great code that gets plugged into guns.
Hard to see but technology as a mechanism is exactly like a gun (or long lines of codes together able to execute as click of a button or flick of a switch).
Video confirms some of this.
I can't ignore all that for people playing games more than humanitarian type stuff. It does come back to that and choosing which to invest and bottle time into is important and also a risk / gamble.

@caranmegil The truth is taking over...
the undeniable truth...
I think these sentences about jobs etc are pretty spot on right?
Like things to keep to yourself almost so true and let others find them also....
(click this post to see)
It feels so clear and getting so obvious that for jobs it's lost it's meaning just like everything else with the same techniques applied, and we realise it was all a tangent and design by war-mongers...
and that maybe one day they / it might actually disappear somehow... or somehow like a cloud just fade. A kind of indirect reset or starting from scratch. The truth coming forward making the rest irrelevant and even forgettingit.
A bit like they / their design never existed.
Not sure how but I get these feelings...
Farm Dreams and Real Visions...
We manage our farm in such a way that people, animals, plants and the soil do well, today and in the future. Through our involvement on the farm, we gain insight into the interrelationships of soil, season, growth and labour used. We take responsibility for a part of our livelihood: the production of food. We share costs, effort and profit. We practice self-management and co-determination and create space for social and cultural projects.

Humble Fans of Shitposters gather round... gather round...
I made a post praising any group of people (or however you identify yourself) who can respond quickly and enjoy their own field of well basic posting and replying!! In somewhat mild spirit of revenge for everyone not talking more often with randoms this is honouring those that can.. and while shit maybe in the wording (and avatar sometimes!), sometimes any post or reply is better than nothing from any other person expert or otherwise... despite your badge or profession...
I've said how speaking your mind is good and having less fear is part of all things for the future...
Welcome to Shitposterville.
Anyway with praise over I dedicate some on my favourite avatars and profile pics quickly (usually the scribbled drawing of face or a monster or cartoon character is fun like a fairly child-like but most effective emulation of it (or is it?)... some pics are included for your visual and intellectual pleasures... (and I promise not to tell people how intelligent some of you are and how value together can really stick to the system whatever your avatar looks like and no matter how many profiles you have!).
More power to those that can reply.
You can even make frens and chat to some which beats the current dry state of meeting people elsewhere regularly (though this might have been a once off to be fair)

Can expect all shitposters to be consistent or maybe consistently inconsistent?!? ...
P.S
For equality reasons all shitposters are included here; even the less-than-humble types or non-humble shitposters included, simple or clever avatar - no shit is left unstepped in here in this posts invitation to have a look at what I stepped in along my travels and thank everyone for something frankly a bit more vibrant and creative :)

A call to DIY hackerlabs, hackerspaces, fablabs, community spaces, open projects out there...
...you can today integrate open value networks and deliver the value you create to those that need it...
otherwise corporations will fill in the gap between you and the market and will monetise the value you create.

#Mind #Fuck time ladies and gentlemen... a big question of #Ethics here (or something you can name)
If there is a sub-species of human or cancerous type of people (hunters let's say hunting others) and you were sure of it / could measure it (maybe even if they themselves admit it and can't stop themselves) then what would you do...? or what could you do...? read on a bit more for more context...
So as humans we stand for who we are.
If others are against us to such a level... that we are simply not who we are / unable / disabled (systematically or otherwise, perhaps stripped is another words or personally filtered out)
For example in how we see / feel (ask yourself if)
- individuality is near gone /
- humanity is literally not considered in it's enforcement and then it's manipulation in enforcement
- yadayadayada
if that's true time and time again then wouldn't you want those enslaving us gone?
Isn't it the same as before with masters...?
Isn't always just here we accept or have to fight?
And if not fight constantly let them get ground until there is none left and then feel compelled to fight?
I guess this video triggered how obvious the dichotomy is... and either which way we go seems same if personally / systematically mini-fighting like a good game doesn't keep system straight using all people (yes it can be done, no if you expect it easy and no effort from yourself).
If with the snake at the end of video wouldn't you want to kill that thing (ok personally I'd try to capture the snake and put it in better area to keep diversity of these wonderous (and murderous) creatures through no fault of it's own and find the right ecosystem but with people I think it's not possible and we are the one's being hunted even passively using money / rent / private property / laws we have no idea of... all cornering and cut of life if not soul-destroying it outright Native American / Massai / Dutch, Polish, Spanish farmers etc https://leafposter.club/objects/65b7ca4e-24bd-4dde-acc8-b994b600963c )
But then again I wouldn't like to say kill them but at some point I might... similar to too many killer bee's... If we say humans are hunting humans and making nectar from people for themselves and keeping it (the rich, elite, etc)... then there's no good out-come (strangely we've been through many and seems there are just wiser in evolution each time and tech-ing up in all areas of life our work is providing them)... Surely not for peace (no way we would instantly relieve a lot of that IF the willpower was there by controllers who by definition will not want to give any less domination for control)
There is a limit always which they are pushing (not us) and we can't ignore that or wait for next protest always or job-connected forcing of their will vs. ours.
I think also bad people **know** good people are less likely to kill them (basic bully tactic if you know someone is from out of town or grown-up polite) where you can steal anything and they might even apologise.
They use that against us and we also against ourselves and go along with what ends up snowballing any bad (until infestation happens and people sellout the neighborhood) which is where we are now, business of extraction everywhere...
ok that's a mind fuck for me and watch video to kind of get the parallels... woo

If you use money, you should know it's being devalued.
Anything you do with money contaminates and also devalued what you are doing... one of the major tricks about money to get out of.
Of course it does take a while to let that sink in... and then at least *aim* for another way. This current way is 100% a fail. Aim for something else... investing in people in better ways than trusting bankers and it's increasing debt / devaluing design...
Keep seeds warm / grow seeds using warm air from PC (power supply unit or processor fan generates constant heat).
A warm room with a lot of equipment making it warm also might help once temperature is high enough for your seed (38 degrees for some seed).
Bring plastic pot closer to PC base unit or hang at the back a little behind the PC (nailed to wall for example) so the plastic gets nice and warm and seed germinates.
The direct heat can be used to get consistent seed temperature (and then plant outside when it's nicer). Almost 38 degrees for example for Apricot seeds in tiny yogurt pot or smallest drink bottle.. so it's quite small and light (not much water etc)
CHECK YOU PC TEMP O_O
Use thermometer outside and in the soil :p
Of course I'm not doing any of this... "I'm just warming you up for the idea" :]
Oh come on entertain my jokes!
You're keeping your coffee warm already that way [aren't you?] so seeds are just a plastic pot away to test (and any fruit from wit seed from shop will do / can grow)!

I do video edits and highlights. Do you want anything edited?,,
Example clips of Quake game and audio talks about strategy.
Anything that has something to learn or usefully entertaining in the audio / video, just get in touch.
Example audio / video lessons
"You have to fight and keep pressure going."
"You can't always win by not engaging.... keep pressure going"
(because time runs out or you end up killing time yourself by not engaging / not incrementing anything)
So while killing time or delay can be good actually often as a consistent tactic things need work whether it's a finish or solution or not. The super-defensive play is often not it or needs mixing up a bit with other tactics.

Overall the audio and video should count more than anything like fancy transitions etc)
TRANSCRIPTS - I can also type up the audio (audio-to-text transcript) and create highlight clips... ideally something teaching or something interesting
Audio only is a real winning way too as it's fast, compact and very flexible as technological / ecological footprint.

"Best time to plant a tree is now"
and in that spirit, guess what I did?... I planted not just 1 but 100! (just to make sure some witll grow / assuming some will not grow which is ok!)
The detail here is that it was seeds and not trees (some trees need a nursery indoors but some can grow if you throw enough seeds there or it drops near the tree !)
The intention to grow and plant "NOW" is the main thing I'm taking here and running with it...
"HIT AND MISS IS OK " tactics if you plant enough seeds!
I did this with 5+ year old pumpkin seeds (taken from inside pumpkins given to me) and guess what ... I put about 50+ pumpkin seeds in 2 spots and they a quarter grew (are still growing!!) so also expect all things grow too this way!
(I can always plant more later, reposition, or just do it better next time even if I fail).
The practise is worthy to plant things, test it out and get some WINNERS
"YOU ARE DA WINNA" !
Well done me. I'm growing too.

Add a bit of imagination in between what you don't believe about control of others and all is possible.
Stick to it long enough and mix the right (or wrong) things and snowball effect happens... I think we might have to copy it a bit like supermarkets or BigTech get together to catch all fish but something towards more honest intelligence overall.
Mentions how people in STEM (or bright people) are used with the story and glue in between that makes sense when financially backed...

I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).

A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).

I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!

I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and
when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!
