Perhaps we could consider the chip shortage, and say that *coin mining is a bane on human existence.

Public transit isnt a thing you do to profit your city directly. You do it so people can participate enough to grow your tax base. There is no public transport system on earth which remains profitable for long. In fact, that would defeat th

Strange... Workers band together to demand sanity, and things move. They start quitting in droves, even at the core of several projects and. . . suddenly the change we want? Just happens. It isnt even a concession. There's less costs i

Perhaps we're using the wrong metaphor - lock your doors. Congress wants to ban door locks to your home, your car, your gun safe?

Not gonna claim to know the situation of the folks you're replying to. And Im not gonna pretend these organizations operate for free - if you can reasonably afford it? Supporting them is a great patriotism / praxis / etc for

That sense of "ownership" in some small piece of the product? Helps build loyalty to the project, and the company. Seeing my baby with that brand name on it helps me feel a part of the team. I've left many a project that didn

Its almost like... Coders live lives of privilege even before they learn to code. Imagine trusting the "Market" to make wise decisions.

I remember MySpace being a place where I could explore the ideas I wanted with people all over the world. There was a clear, forum-inherited structure to most groups. It kept me coming back, day after day. Google+ had a similar appeal - I d

Can you vote with these RSUs? Or does the bank holding them get that right? Because last I checked with mine, they really belong to the bank, and are used to fill in my balance sheet. No voting allowed.

The inciting article fails to mention the financialization of our ecomony - lets make more money for having money! What do you mean these serfs cant pay $2,000/ month for a studio apartment while earning minimum wage? Note that histori

That's utter baffling madness! I wish that was some kind of joke instead of actually being a semi-serious explanation most of the way through.

As silly as it sounds? Marx wrote very little about government. The most promising moves towards collective autonomy in the 21st Century are about abolishing politics as we know it, and engaging directly. From Chiapas Mexico, the EZLN is ex

I hope that Librem is still around to sell me a hat/shield to turn a decent & specific single-board computer into a phone. I hope their around long enough for that sbc to be RISC-V based. I am happy that they made the LTE connectio

Lineage dropped support for a LOT of phones in the last 6 months. When you show up, looking to do the legwork for a specific model, the community directs you to the donate button instead... If Librem can keep their repos current? Im down to

This is a problem - too many people still refuse to acknowledge the reality of the depth of priviledges of wealth. Do you get it? Yes. Do I get it? I've been homeless. Does hacker news get it? Eh... Look around at some of the comments,

Why would you do such a thing? Creating masses of crippled, non-general operating systems out of linux?! For the actually unheardof performance. Basically, you've taken the whole /sbin/init link out of the OS init chain, an

Looking at the glut of empty affordable housing in Oregon, compared to the mass of homeless people encamped behind a San Francisco Home Depot? I'm gonna have to call your red herring comment irrelevant to the evidence. If it were only

Those median cities have seen median rent rise as much as 50% in the last 10 years, without the rise in wages. Stfu and pay your workers enough to live.

Mostly? We mine minerals and refine them with: Petrochemical sources. Which, you might also worry about running out of, in about as short order as topsoil. There was another commenter here with more expertise on actually growing things this

Where do you think the plants' nutrients come from in those growing methods? Petrochemical plants also set to run out of resources. You're adorable. Look at permaculture food forests and how they rebuild topsoil. While we still ca

Aquaponics demands a LOT more resources. Petrochemical fertilizers to dissolve in massive amounts of water... This does not sound like a way to sustain a society into perpetuity.

As for not responding to deadlines for large social issues - when is the last time you saw a tropical depression form over the US? And then b-line to the gulf of Mexico, to become a freaking Hurricane, and then attack the US? Al Gore was ri

As for topsoil - it has happened before. Whether we're talking about multi-continental with the bronze age collapse, or we're talking corporate with the US Dust Bowl, people always ask - why didnt anybody do something? You're

Welcome to Fascism, ladies and gentlemen. No rights, no respect for due process, nobody to call for help. "Papers, please" was an invasion back in WWII, and here we are being scrutinized in every modern-conceivable way. Nobody bat

Anyone see the irony that its for gitlab, but posted on github? So what does it do that git doesn't? Without answering that, it feels awkward to put forward a CLI frontend to a CLI tool.

LibreSSL worked hard to add a few additional ciphers before OpenSSL. BoringSSL implemented TLSv1.3 years before OpenSSL did.
