21·1 year agoWe already have physical lines.
Businesses and governments aren’t going to invest in digging and laying down more cables to give people in rural America access to fiber. They’re already reluctant to do it for major cities.

Satellite internet is not the future; it’s cell internet.

31·1 year agoDoes he have to work with the wealthy to raise their taxes?

2·1 year agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratchet_effect
The ratchet effect is a concept in sociology and economics illustrating the difficulty with reversing a course of action once a specific thing has occurred, analogous with the mechanical ratchet that allows movement in one direction and seizes or tightens in the opposite.
Republicans push us in one direction, weak/complacent democrats don’t fight back.
It’s part of the two-pronged strategy, and why anyone who supports establishment democrats is tacitly supporting republican policies.
We really needed Bernie in 2016, but it shows where liberals’ priorities lie. They become conservative as soon as their wealth is threatened.

21·1 year agoThere’s another side to this.
This means there’s a lot of programmers who are available to work on other things. It’s an opportunity for businesses to start and new programs to be made.

Technology@lemmy.world•Mozilla warns Germany could soon declare ad blockers illegalEnglish
2·1 year agoThe wealthy people will just pay to have the ads removed.
As always, this law doesn’t exist to benefit workers like you and me. It exists to benefit our rulers and should be another example of how government representatives do not represent their populace.

1·1 year agoI’m already getting into self-hosting.
It’s surprisingly easy, and can be done with a VPN that has port forwarding.
Wouldn’t be surprised with how shittifed the web is becoming that we end up with alternatives to DNS since it requires forwarding on port 80.

14·1 year agoAsus and Acer have some of the biggest dipshits in their design departments.
“Republic of Gamers” is cringe, and Acer settled on having “PREDATOR” written in all caps across their gaming laptops.
Gamer aesthetic is not, never has been, and never will be cool.

16·1 year agoThat’s fine.
It means their expertise can only benefit companies that value morals.
Remember, corporations need us more than we need them.

12·1 year agoMan, all those saps that started studying AI thinking it was necessary are in for a rude awakening.
I’d almost feel bad for them, if they weren’t so eager to follow the memes while making the digital space worse for all of us.

Ok.
What about everyone else?
