  • Turns out you are right. At least on the surface.

    But if we dig deeper, we find that only 10% of children made it to their 20s, and the reason for that was famine and disease.So those that kept the population growing lived under conditions where the reason why their children died was because they could not feed them or keep them healthy. And if we take the 0.5% of maternal mortality, and apply it to those responsible for the population growth (those that made it into their 20s), we get a rough estimate of 50% effective maternal mortality. So it was the agricultural technology in combination with war, disease and child birth that kept the population low.

    And that's what i meant: They lived in a situation where 80-90% of their friends had died of famine, disease and war, and under these horrific conditions they still produced 4.5 to 7.5 children per woman, which kept the population growing (slowly). As soon as that limitation was lifted, the population shot up.

    Personally, i don't see any planning in that. They just had as many children as they could before they died, not worrying about how they would feed them.

  • Google restores Nextcloud user’s file access on Android

  • I've been self-hosting it for about 10 years now. It's a castle built on sand (PHP): It's hard to install, hard to update, and becomes slower by the day, but once you have learned Docker, Apache, SSL and a bit of SQL, it works mostly reliable.

    If you just want file syncronization you could just buy a hosted instance, and use Cryptomator for protecting your privacy. Then you can have Nextcloud in under 30mins.If you want to store large amounts of data, or you also want to use Calendar, Collabora, Talk,... then self-hosting will be cheaper/more private. But it will require lot's of learning, far more than the ordinary person can do.

  • Now it's even more depressing because that means humans have been using children as a tool to create social security, knowing full well that most of them will suffer and die at an early age.

    It's a pyramid scheme played with (literally) innocent people at the expense of an insane amount of suffering and death.

  • The only thing Evil (aka. suffering, disease, war,...) needs to exist is that 'good' people continue to have children.

  • Not true. Humans always reproduced to the absolute limit (set by their agricultural technology and the bodies of women). The reason why this didn't wreck the environment is because that limited population was too small to turn 50% of land into farmland, they didn't know how to burn large amounts of coal and they didn't have the technology to produce harmful chemicals.

    But i agree that humanity (or any other species) has no value. Saying humanity has value is like saying the white race has value. It's pure aestethics, it's not worth it to make anyone suffer for that.

  • From your standards, are abusive people or those who cause trauma/discrimination “evil”?

  • Suffering is bad, and the intentional or neglient creation of suffering is evil.

    Those that have created suffering have done evil, and those that are currently creating suffering, or plan to create suffering are evil. The larger the suffering, the greater the evil.

    Those that have done evil, but are no longer willing to do evil are not evil.

    In the end, evil is a simplification that allows us to take power from those that want to create suffering without needing to know what exactly they are doing or planning.

  • In that case you would be creating a child (that did not exist before) as a tool to show to yourself (and maybe others) that you can do better than your parents. As the child had no problems before it's creation, and now has many, that's still not in the interest of the child.

    The selfless thing to do would be to figure out if you would be an above-average adoptive parent. If you are or can be, then adopt a child that was created by someone else (maybe to show that they can do better than their parents, but life happened and they failed), and try to give them the best life possible in a society where everyone tries to outperform everyone else as the world is hurdling towards fascism and climate collapse.

  • Yesterday, inspired by the news about mass depaorations, i watched a documentary on the Final Solution.

    Among a lot of interesting things, one thing stood out to me: The original Nazis were afraid that the german people would not only reject genocide, but also reject the idea of jews (aka. their neighbors) being sent to brutal labor camps.So they produced propaganda movies depicting the city Theresienstadt as a spa town. And then told the public that the jews would be sent there to be protected from the increasingly antisemitic public.

    To lull victims into a false sense of security, the SS advertised Theresienstadt as a "spa town" where Jews could retire, and encouraged them to sign fraudulent home purchase contracts, pay "deposits" for rent and board, and surrender life insurance policies and other assets.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theresienstadt_Ghetto

    Nowadays, you can just tell the american people:

    Hey, we are gonna send your neighbors to a torture camp. Great camp. Lovely camp. Most brutal camp of the world.

    And they are like: Yessss, finally a solution to the migrant question.

    I can also recommend Life Under Adolf Hitler: The First Years Of Nazi Germany.

  • Those that do not vote don't seem to vote meaningfully different from voters.

    This is to be expected, as non-voters either don't care to vote as they have their own problems, or have a general mistrust of the voting system. These traits are not specific to progressives or conservatives, so they don't skew the outcome meaningfully.

    As much as i would like it, there is no 1/3 of the population that is made from antinatalist communists just waiting for the signal.

  • Sadly election results prove every few years, that you are the only one seeking radical change.

    ~30-50% want extreme conservativism/capitalism. ~20-40% want everything as-is.~30% want mild improvements like a really low UBI.<5% want to get rid of oligarchs.<.1% want to eliminate suffering.
