  • As the article points out, no company has a unique special sauce that others can’t quickly replicate. In fact, it’s likely that open models will start outpacing closed ones because they facilitate more collaboration.

    As you mentioned later, yeah open source anything subsidized by the government will outcompete against proprietary, closed sourced alternatives. Anything substantial and worthwhile made on this planet, whether it be the Internet, the Great Wall of China, mobile architectures (smartphone components), etc., was made through national efforts. All private companies do is build off of these collective creations, gatekeep against any outside contribution and free access, and maximize profits even at the cost of enshittification.

  • Sometimes I will switch my feed on newest first so I can find more content before it gets buried amongst the popular threads. Regarding communities, I honestly feel Lemmygrad has a great variety communities, which is necessary to be able to post to relevant communities. I often have issues making posts in the right hexbear community because my topic doesn't really fit into the small list of communities. For example, the Funny community here is great because it covers a wide range of humorous content, but hexbear...memes, videos (though that community is better for sharing more interesting content or showing videos of one's interest), maybe news if news related, I don't even know what chapotraphouse is for and it gets treated like a niche community, not sure if chat is really equivalent to our comradeship/freechat community which helps covering any other niche posts.

    The only issue with many communities in small instances is that the moderators for those communities often are not active anymore, but the community is still useful. I would like to create a community, but I really don't have the time or capacity to handle moderation. That's why I think a lemmy like social media where tags are used and a more centralized but larger group of moderators could encourage more equally distributed activity across different niche content.

  • Local on lemmygrad and hexbear

    Subscribed on lemmy.ml because many communities, instances, and users are filled with toxicity and liberal/fascist brainrot

    I rarely use lemmy.ml anyway

    Small, wholesome, humble communities FTW

    Lemmygrad and hexbear feel like geniune forums with great camaraderie. I've longed for an online community that wasn't filled with toxic morons. Most social media is repugnant for me, and I missed forums from back in the day. I'm grateful that lemmygrad and hexbear have brought wholesome forums back on the menu.

    It would be nice if smaller communities were able to get more attention. I wonder if making a lemmy-like federated social networking site that uses tags instead of communities to allow people to give multiple categories to posts without spamming small instances would help other content get more attention. Moderation would likely have to be more centralized, though.

  • I have wanted to put original content on PeerTube as well, but it's hard with my computer situation and being busy all the time. I hope to see more comrades posting content on alternative platforms, especially exclusively. I'm worried about loss of educational digital media on private platforms like YouTube and Reddit as enshittification continues. I'm also worried about archive.org. I depend on it greatly. I hope we archive and preserve media as much as possible on other platforms before we inevitably lose them.

  • Pro-Palestine Demonstrators Removed from Bernie-AOC Rally; Sanders Tries to Silence Booing Crowd

    Jump

  • Exactly. I just put a disclaimer there because it sounded a little distasteful without it, at least for anyone new who didn't know my beliefs. I just wanted to be clear I'm not relishing in the genocide of a people for sake of radicalizing people.

    When I first listened to the video, I was also thinking about how Bernie just keeps repeating his same old lines, sounding pathetic as the masses, who have further developed class consciousness over the past decade, are not putting up with the censorship and ongoing whitewashing of the genocide. They demand radical change which Bernie is straying away from as he compromises more and more with the far right democrats and republicans while refusing to put up any fight.

    Messages like the rich need to pay for their fair share aren't enough. The rich systematically maintain a system through violence and austerity to keep their power and wealth, instilling bigotry and reactionary ideas among the masses to keep them competing and working against each other, and dismantling rights fought and won by previous movements. As Parenti said, the people really want to be liberated from the bourgeoisie's control and domination of their lives. They are tired of struggling for survival. Bernie's pathetic fight for concessions are not enough. The people want full liberation, to finally dismantle a system which perpetuates horrors that no one should ever have to experience, and they want to replace it with one that will ensure it never returns.

    Jump

  • I'm honestly glad the crisis the Palestinian genocide has created (of course, I believe this goes without saying, I wish it never had to come to this and that Palestinians were free from the beginning and never faced settler occupation and this holocaust nightmare) has happened while Bernie is still alive. It has turned so many people against Bernie and other socdems, undoing much of the harm they caused toward the socialist movement and finally radicalizing people who would have been radicalized earlier. I'm glad Bernie will have to die knowing he's a monster who perpetuated genocide, and that people are beginning to not settle for an imperialist social democracy but for actual revolution to dismantle and replace this horrific system of oppression that threatens humanity's survival.

  • Green Day, Coachella’s headlining act, took the main stage and voiced solidarity with Palestine.

    Jump

  • Same band to tell people to vote Hillary Clinton. Supporting Palestinian liberation is pretty low bar at this point, and it's not uncommon for libs to support "Free Palestine". Nevertheless, Green Day has been supportive of the working class and has some revolutionary themes within their songs, so maybe Billie is radicalizing.

    I prefer IDLES at this point, but I did grow up listening to Green Day, as have other comrades here and irl, so I do agree this was nice and a bit unexpected to see. They did the bare minimum while most mainstream artists haven't, though it's a bit late and would have had more impact closer to October 7th.

  • LinuxRuleZ (who is a moderator and major contributor to torrminatorr.com) rocks. Their packaged Linux native and Wine prefixed games work nicely with the Steam Deck (though sometimes I have noticed the Wine ones are broken). Make sure to seed their torrents as they are not up for very long, and they delete their old builds because they cannot sustain the storage requirements.

    I think they--actually maybe the adminstrator of torrminatorr.com, I thought LinuxRuleZ was the host because they are very prolific and people mention the administrator's sites mainly to get LinuxRuleZ's repacks--also host zamunda.se (also other domains/mirrors exist, but this one is possible to create an account successfully atm), and have been working on a new site appnetica.com.

    While 1337x is too risky from pirate from, and this creator's repacks don't work with the Steam Deck due to the immutable OS which also lacks various linux packages, I think johncena141's repacks are pretty cool because they use DwarFS, a virtual filesystem like Squashfs that has some of the best possible compression ratios and speeds possible, for their repacks. I saw redditors complain about this person's repacks being too difficult and complex, lol, but I think this is one of the best ways to use open source tech for Linux piracy. This honestly inspires me to learn to crack my own games and software and create nicely packed torrents.

    I've been wanting to learn Squashfs/DwarFS and OverlayFS to see if it would be viable to create a solution for compressing my Steam games since deduplication would probably help save a lot of space from a lot of copies of libraries and wine prefixes bundled separately for each game.

  • Wtf Russia?!

    Jump

  • Even if Russia and Amerikkka were to align for a mutual imperialist project, the working class keeps getting shafted with violent laws that make workers lose access to healthcare, education, unemployment benefits, housing, employment, etc. on a daily basis. Even if these nations stave off recession, workers are getting screwed over and only the bourgeoisie benefit. Even if fascism comes first, we're still facing multiple crises like climate change, multiple crises that will still radicalize workers, but we have to organize. We can't depend on China to save us. We can't just sit and wait for world socialism to take over this settler nation. We can't just hope for the fall of Amerikkka on its own.

    Even if it does fall, we need to organize to bring upon a vanguard party that will give us an alternative to revolt and replace the warlords in power. Join PSL, FRSO, or start or join a local ML-favorable organization to help those around you (even if the organization isn't perfect, though PSL has improved since the sexual allegations that keep being brought up here. I believe it has other problems, but those can be fixed over time, and the same applies to FRSO). Help the immigrants, trans, lgbt, minorities, poor workers, disabled folk, and other marginalized people. Just get up and rage on. (And if you are already doing so,) Don't lose hope, but don't let hope leave you complacent and distract you from bringing change to your community. Helping workers keep their heads above water while awakening their class consciousness eventually helps the working class gain political power.

    Even if the odds are against us, we might as well fight as hard as we can with what we have left to potentially tip the scales and push humanity to a different course. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    Not saying Turtle Island will be the nation as it is a myth, just describing the continent and recognizing a socialist society will be something that replaces this colonized, demonic, imperialist, savage hellhole and return autonomy to the Black Belt and the Indigenous lands.
