I have a watch that is piwered by movement, and it is analog. Love the thing cause I don’t have to remember to charge it or replace the batteries, it charges when I wear it. However if I forget to wear it it will likely die. But then I just give it a good shake and update the time.

Most of the things that I was taught that I don’t get practice with I do not remember how to do it anymore. Now I do have ADHD so that definitely does not help.

However I will say I do think in some cases learning how to do things you wont necessarily need outside of school can be useful as it can teach you other helpful things subconsciously. There are certain supporting skills that are developed when you learn those things that can be used in other contexts. Are there more effective ways to learn those supporting skills besides teaching things most people likely wont use again? Probably, but I don’t really have an answer for what

Cause the food was so fire it caught the container on fire

Cause the only shit in this post is you. You’re just posting hate and bigotry in the form of memes. Quit playing dumb

Dude you arent even debating me, when the fuck did I say there aren’t fair elections? You are literally hitting me with a loaded question. If thats the way this is going to go, then I’m done engaging with this cause you clearly don’t give a shit about having a mutual conversation.

Bro all I am trying to tell you is communism does not inherently mean authoritarian dictatorship. Also if we care so much about how Marx defined communism and that that definition is all that matters then no, socialism and communism are the same thing because that is how he defined them. Lenin is who changed that. But since all we apparently care about is how Marx defined it I guess we can toss out Lenin’s adaptions (fine by me, I hate Lenin).

You gotta stop giving people so much authority. Marx didn’t invent communism, he just created the most popular interpretation and analysis of it. And other people have taken that and adapted and expanded it, Marx does not own the idea. There are hundreds of different ideas and adaptions to Marx’s ideas, if your whole perception of communism is based on Marx and the Marxist-Leninist versions you are working with a very narrow understanding of communism.

Dude, you have no idea what communism is. Any example you pull for communism is likely going to be Marxist-Leninism. And yes the differences between various communist ideologies does matter, because there are various ideologies of democracy and yes some work better than others.

Literally all communism is boiled down to is workers owning their workplaces cooperatively.

You have an issue with Marxist-Leninism, which fair it fucking sucks. Marxist-Leninism differs from other communist ideologies because it believes the working class is not prepared to own their workplaces yet and so require a vanguard party made up of revolutionaries who know better than everyone else and they will manage everything on behalf of the workers.

You me, and most other people can spot the issue with this. That being, power is centralized into a one party state and thus becomes a dictatorship hell bent on maintaining its control. Democracy and communism are not antithetical to each other. Rosa Luxemburg believed freedom of speech and democracy were necessary for communism. Council Communism is also a communist ideology that puts a lot of emphasis on a free and democratic government made up of democratic workers councils.

From my understanding creationists do believe in evolution on a micro level. Meaning a species can evolve a little bit to fit a particular niche. They just don’t believe in evolution on a macro level, meaning like how the surviving dinosaurs evolved into birds as we know it today, or hippos and whales sharing a common ancestor.

Nah, if my support of them results in that money going to fascists, I don’t care how much good they do. I am not going to support them. Expecting the people you work with and support to uphold certain basic values is not a huge expectation. The people they are supporting actively advocate and support racist and fascistic conspiracies. It is not that much to ask that Framework avoid them and support other open source developers. Its insane to not even have that level of standards. There are loads of open source developers, and people are just asking them to avoid the ones openly being racist.

If you don’t think boycotting them till they renounce that support is reasonable, then I don’t think we have any common ground to work with.

If Framework would drop support, I’ll gladly get onw of their computers and support them. Till then, I ain’t touching them and will stick with my current computer

Damn, I didn’t even know about Framework. Wish they weren’t supportin fascists, cause I’d totally get a laptop from them.

Or, and hear me out, maybe just stop posting AI content cause clearly people don’t want it, or get over the criticism. People are going to react the way you dont like because many people, myself included, find it unethical. Like yeah, if I see something and like it, but find out it was made in a way I find unethical I am going to think lesser of it. Its called following your own principles. Like if I watch a youtuber and like their content, but then find out they plagiarized it, I am not going to like that youtuber anymore. They did something I find ethically immoral and I am not going to support it.

Everything only works with the right kind of people. No system is perfect and will always have people who disagree and work to destabilize it and change it. Like America isnt falling to fascism for no reason. So we should at least work towards as free and kind of a world that we can

I agree with you, but also I’m not gonna say no if they did implement UBI. Anarchist mutual aid is better than money, but UBI is better than nothing

Because those same countries were never ideologically opposed to fascism in the first place. America was a major inspiration for Hitler, namely in its jim crow laws and eugenics. Before world war 2, America loved Hitler. And the western powers are the reason why Zionism exists as an influential ideology to begin with. Britain gave the land for zionists to colonize to begin with. All of these same countries also committed the same atrocities themselves when colonizing places like the Americas, Africa, and Asia. Liberal governments have never been opposed to colonialism, genocide, or fascism.
