YouTube is a great experience with a paid subscription. It’s the streaming service I use the most and I find the monthly cost to be worth the content I watch there. It’s also an even more effective way to fight the disruptive influence advertising has on our online communities and helps fund the creators on the platform that I enjoy.

Everyone should make their own choices, I’m just highlighting one of those choices that works well for me.

You might not see it as clearly, but that’s our role in society as well

I spent a decade as a full time Tcl developer and even I don’t use fossil.

Profit is created from the output of productive labor. The amount of profit varies depending on the efficiency of the market and the company.

Companies are force multipliers for labor. The company's profit comes from that force mulitplication, not by withholding profit from the worker who generated it.

Profit can only be made by exploiting labour. There can’t be any other way

This is a bad take and suffers from overly-simplistic thinking. Corporations are force multipliers for labor and the economic value of your labor is increased by joining forces with others.

Usenet was the golden age of Reddit for its time. Before the binary newsgroups drowned everything out and web 1.0 captured everyone's attention.

In a way, it was a lot like Lemmy. Federated servers all inter-exchanged posts to a giant, global message board of newsgroups (roughly analogous to a subreddit or Lemmy community). Anyone could create a newsgroup and there were a lot of them.

When it was good, it fostered the same kind of genuine conversation that Reddit and Lemmy do when they're at their best. It was full of memes, too, although that word didn't exist then.

This is such an astute and accurate description of crypto and mining. You are a textbook example of projection.

my omnikey ultra is certainly wacky

You mis-spelled "clacky"

DMCA was designed to prevent intellectual property infringement, not as a censorship tool.

I’ve voted in every election since Bush senior in 1988 and I do not believe the other guy is speaking hyperbolically at all. It’s so different this time. It truly is.

You could generate a revocation key and then encrypt for multiple people using Shamir’s secret sharing.

Look into ssss and gfshare, the latter explicitly discusses this use of the algorithm.
