And not only that, Mario’s method only works because of the threat of Luigi.

The only reason why we have worker rights is because communist scared the shit out of FDR.

So it’s fully reasonable to condone the Luigi method but support their desire to make positive change.

    What is wild about all this is looking back to the old social contract and how it basically made this fobitted forbidden.

    The best example is the movie minority report in which they had a fool proof way to 100% of the time predict the future.

    I won’t spoil the movie, but the whole premise was that even if there was one instance of it making a mistake, and a innocent person was put on ice by mistake, then the whole thing had to be shut down.

    And in today’s reality: all of big tech’s new tools make mistakes constantly, sometimes more than getting things right, and it’s still full steam ahead on the rollout.

    MFW dystopian movies were too optimistic

    It “works” the same way you can eat fast food to prevent starvation since you do get calories from it. But you essentially do damage to yourself long term and slowly kill yourself.

    In moderation it can work, but just like fast food, it’s always better to eat less, ideally 0 amount. 

    It might be worth it if you don’t have any other option, but not having any other option is a bigger failing on overall planning.

    If you consume lots of it then you do tolerate it more than those who abstain themselves; whom totally feel sick when they consume any of it.

    At the end of the day, it would never be considered quality or good, but just like fast food, our cooperate overlords will try to get us to use it as much as possible.

    I just hope this means that similarly, those who respect their mind/body can easily live their life and avoid it.

    The only difference I can think of is that fast food is profitable, which is pretty hilarious.

    So, back to the title, imagine living in a world where a significant chunk of the population think McDonald’s is somehow better than home cooked meals. That’s where we are at atm.

     

    Hi folks,

    Been using self hosted rust desk option for a while now. Great program and it’s very easy to use, honestly much more smooth than team viewer which kept logging me out.

    Speaking of logging in, it’s now asking me to do that. While I could, I thought since it’s self hosted it wouldn’t need this step and am not thrilled that it would make me rely on big tech still.

    I’m self hosting the relay server but it just uses an ip without any certificate, wondering if that’s the reason.

    Has anyone hit this issue? Any known fixes besides logging in? Can anyone confirm whether it would be solved if the relay server used a proper domain with https?

    Here is the link from the screenshot and as always, thanks in advance. Love this community!

     

    Even though the country wasn’t so bad after Dabya, imo it’s honestly where it all went wrong in the modern era. And it all started with a corrupt person who should have stayed in the private sector.

    It all came down to: there isn’t a law forbidding it so there is opportunity
