Everybody needs to get their shit together, pick a successor and fundraise a fork. The only thing special about mozilla was the money skimmed from google searches and full time developers.
With the global clampdown on protests or online activity any idea of liberal or social democracies functioning as a release valve for people's grievences is long dead. The only way out is true revolutionary organisation.
Can’t wait to tell future generations fighting to survive that people used to engage in activism over their adaptions of their favourite ip and not mitigating the misery we are putting them through.
I’ve read history. Well I watched a cartoon once about the creature on Jekyll Island. So I now I know everything. You narcissistic pseudo intellectual.
I am convince that porkies really want a world where most people don’t work or consume. Just wait to die from some mysterious illness when just enough of the economy is automated.
That is the end result of a campaign of economic warfare we must wage. We must do everything can for a catastrophic bursting of the AI bubble. Cut off the data as much as possible. Help your friends and family disable tracking, ads etc. Urge them to cancel accounts. Tell them AI is turning them into idiots, be brutal. Move them to Libreoffice and Icecat. Then move them to Linux. Tell the gamers in your life that their passive consumerism is killing any exciting future for their hobby.
I've tried this option before. You get board, PSU failures and video card failures too often, especially with PCs being kept powered on 24x7. These aren't the same standard boards and PSUs used in self-builds and get stupid expensive to replace.
I hope we're salvating as porky does shit like this. Gaming is just grilling for so many people and building a PC is an aspiration for so many who have already been burned by
crypto.
I think the only way to get to alot of them is using it as the hook for a co-ordinated boycott. As much as possible cut Microsoft, Google, Apple, Meta, nvidia, Adobe and anything else AI adjacent out of your life. That includes deepseek who are also likely eating alot of hardware. If a brand or studio use AI then cut them out. This should have been easy with BDS but we need to work with what we conditions have not what we want. Some of it is inescapable, especially Microsoft but the tech industry is so overleveraged that any decline in the attention economy is going to be a disaster. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for economic warfare.
Are we communists seeking to replace this failed system or are we social democrats wincing at it's next crisis?
But AI stuff just looks like a meme template from 10 years ago. Only now it's now it shortform video that makes your brain go
. It will become increasingly cringey in time too.
It wasn't like we where in a renaissance up to 2021. Almost everything was super deriative or was some fetishic take on something else as well. Social media and monetisation had set a catastrophic foundation for this. Those who make something original will always be few and far between and will always be exceptions to the rule.
A amateur writing, painting, drawing for themselves shouldn't feel pressure to publish or share. We should learn to appreciate hiding in plain sight again and not submitting everything for scrutiny. And maybe should be for your own pleasure. Might be better for people to produce their own crap for hours then watching hundreds of brain roitting clips in that time. There is rarely ever an idea that is good on it's own merrits without years of scrutiny, collobration and yeah gatekeeping to get there.
