Mirando esto: youtube.com/watch?v=Ghh-kF4FXO sobre la estafa a nombre de ANCAP de invertir en petroleo en Uruguay, la mismísima publicidad engañosa me aparece en otra ventana, y otras estafas claramente similares interrumpen la visaulización.

Delirante impunidad de Google/Alphabet/Youtube, con quién Antel invierte en fibra óptica global, y al que damos cantidad de privilegios, en particular de cache en Uruguay, para que nuestra internet parezca más rápida.

... No quisieron legislar sobre neutralidad de la red, con lo que sólo logramos "whatsapp gratis". Es decir que también privilegiamos con dinero público a Facebook/Meta/Whatsapp, que tan funcional fue a las elecciones de trump, bolsonaro o por el brexit.

No se entendió la neutralidad de la red en Uruguay. No es una medida liberal de competencia entre operadores de red. Es (re)construir el espacio público de este mundo virtualizado.

El espacio público está en la plaza o en la playa del barrio, no en el shopping. No se trata de cambiar de shopping o establecer la regulación del shopping, se trata de voler a la playa. De construir el fediverso.

i love programming but I dont want to work anymore. Not at that capacity. Whats the point? I slaved away literally obsessing abouy 401k's and retirement so i could one day enjoy life. But I can do that right now! But that enjoyment means not going back to programming.

Giving up the horrendously obscene salaries programmers make to do something that just barely pays the bills but would synergize with my life much better.

I love programming... But the hours and the stress is too much. My body has been mentally fighting me for 15 years (migraines) and now is physically breaking down to prevent me from continuing this path.

I will most likely have to sell my house in this scenario and go back to paying rent (which would be more than my previous mortgage before the divorce 🤮)

But doing this drastic life change could fundamentally change everything about my trajectory! Cost of living could be made cheap! I could get out from debt! (profit from house sale)

LITERALLY HOMESTEAD! (hybrid. Not full for me. Ps: did you k ow you cant actually unplug completely from capitalism? Mere property taxes will fuck you. Unincorporated maybe?)

I just want out. I want out from all of it. Whats the point of the technological era we find ourselves in if it gives us these fucking shackles. How can we be in the riches god damn nation in the fucking world and have such want amidst such plenty? Forced to continue turning the crank of a broken machine that everyone acknowledgingly hates! (even if they vote against their own self interests, they do so because they feel the oppression and seek solutions).

Idk where in going with this. I'm tired. Tired of all this. For the last 15 years since my migraines started and I would push through to do the capitalism, I would always say to myself as a internal mantra: "living in the woods is always an option". And now im thinking of invoking that option. (not full detachment, but absolute minimizing costs payed to capitalism. Basically I want to retire. Oh hey! Do you have to pay back loans if you dont work? B/c they'd bave nothing to garnish! XD. Ofc I wouldbt 'do that' though :p)

Anarchism under capitalism, not #AnCap they suck, could start as simple as arranging a service with a person instead of a company.

💰 trade or barter. I'm not picky.

The important thing is the substantial difference between a reasonable price for the person to charge for their services and the (probably much higher) price the company charges.

The 2 of you just colaborated to #Expropriate that amount back from the #billionaires & #CapitalClass

@Njord basically all since even if we don't think of these as "inalienable #HumanRights" even the most ghoulish #AnCap would've to admit that socializing these as #infrastructure will reduce the costs for every by virtue of #EconomiesOfScale and also remove the multiple-times higher costs of havi g to deal with #homelessness, #hunger, #sickness and #illiteracy.

  • Nations don't provide these out of goodwill of their hearts but because even the stingiest accountant will adnit people who don't have to fear becoming sick, homeless, starving or not being able to afford school for their children are less anxious, more happy and more productive than others even when paid less...

Sí, tuvimos tiempos socialistas en un promedio de 15 años en Latinoamérica. Y fueron tan generosos que los impuestos, los precios, y los pobres se multiplicaron. Vaya lección de generosidad. Ah y lo más importante. El patrimonio de los políticos aumentó exponencialmente, vaya, es que se lo merecen, si ya no hay más problemas y casi es un paraíso esto, hay que andar por la calle esquivando gente durmiendo en la calle, y rogando a un ser sobrenatural para que no te roben pero es un detalle. Se agradece el trabajo y se leerá atentamente. Parece una postura anárquica, y a mi me puede todo eso. En mi país, los candidatos Socialistas y comunistas hacen comidas con ticket de 1000 dólares o 10000 dólares invitando a empresarios. Ojo, esa plata es un honorario para que piensen y se concentren profundamente en la gente humilde y pobre. Que mente malvada la que piensa que ese dinero es para que voten a favor de las empresas invitadas.

The MG4 lane keep assist is scary shit. On the highway in the rain, and on narrow country roads it kept beeping and trying to steer me off the road. It can't be disabled, because it turns itself back on when you start the car. Apparently that's how it gets its 5 star safety rating.

Otra cosa es su comunidad y la mayor parte de contenido, efectivamente fue creada por cripto-fans y ha atraido mucha parte de #cryptobros y #bitcoin maximalistas ... sin entrar al debate de bitcoin vs fiat , al final me salí porque noté también entre algunos un tufillo de #ancap-s defendiendo a ultranza la propiedad privada, los monopolios y con algunos de derecha rancia(#13TV). Quizás algún día vuelva eligiendo mejor a quien sigo.

Can we acknowledge that when ancaps talk about the importance of worker contracts and the existence of the NAP ("Non Aggression Principle"), they're advocating for slavery?

"Oh, you want to fight back against your capitalist oppressor who's exploiting your labour in the most dehumanizing ways possible? Sorry, but that violates the NAP. Should have thought about that before signing that contract when you were desperately trying to ensure your continued existence."

Trying out new browsers today.

Spent about 5 minutes with #Brave and gave up. Their #BAT thing is goofy, and I couldn't even sign up for an account to store BAT in, it does nothing. Pretty flaky.

It flags a new plug in as "error" in the top bar

And frankly.... for something that is all about #privacy, it sure as fuck really wants to sell me a bunch of shit, like #crypto accounts and VPN services and all this other shit.

Seems to me like we should leave this browser to the #ancap folx.

#Libertarianism #AnCap #Milei

> victory of Javier Milei in Argentina puts at the head of state the first self-proclaimed “anarcho-capitalist” in modern history.

> He faces a massive administrative state that is deeply entrenched, a collapsed currency, a corrupted court system, a hostile legislature, an enemy media, and 100 years of egregious pension liabilities.

> Milei is being called to do something never done before, in the midst of a grave crisis for the nation.
