Not wanting parasites to keep burning the world for short term profit is not thinking communally..?

I don't understand why you call it worse, or even bad at all.

your money buys more tomorrow than today

This is evidently good.

you hold off spending it

Also good. Save money for retirement and emergencies.

Done en masse, that causes demand to drop

Less consumerism. Good again.

companies have to lower prices further

Still good. More acquisitive power for consumers, less money for CEOs, stockholders, and similar parasites.

More incentive to increase production efficiency and reduce waste, while proper regulations and actually punitive fines and civil and criminal responsibility for executives, board members, and stockholders keep salaries and quality up.

The concept of infinite growth has been raping and murdering the world for way too long. This looks like it would put a hard stop to it.

which means more deflation

So far so good?

It's a self-perpetuating cycle

Sounds great, to be honest!

(Though, to be fair, prices would only keep lowering until goods are sold for what they actually cost to produce, including salaries and whatnot, with occasional drops due to increased efficiencies; the system would thus stabilise at an actually reasonable level, as opposed to the current ultraconsumerist madness.)

Wait, how is honey not vegan?

It's literally processed nectar! Sure, the processing is done by bees, but they're not hurt in any way whatsoever and they seem happy (inasmuch as an insect that sometimes seems to enjoy playing with balls for no practical purpose can be happy) with the arrangement...

I mean, I practically live on cheese, but I could see arguments for dairy products not being vegan given industrial farming and the whole veal thing (which is admittedly quite monstrous), but honey?

Bees are clearly where they want to be and consider the whole deal worth the hassle... they have a built-in way to show they are (sufficiently) unhappy... and a swarm that doesn't like its current domicile or the whole collecting excess honey deal can just leave if it wants to, and sometimes do...

It's probably because of resistFingerprinting in about:config.

I have it set to false, though... 🤔

Weird thing is it fails on pages infected with cloudflare (says browser not supported), but cloudflare's own test page claims everything works properly.

It must have something to do with NoScript, but I have everything remotely related to cloudflare set to trusted, so I don't know what.

Works in incognito mode, but I don't want to navigate the webwithout ad blocking.

they're lucky CEOs lack any semblance of self awareness, otherwise they'd be asking themselves a lot of questions right now...

(I hope someone is asking them, though; with luck this could end with some stock crashes, maybe even a bankruptcy or two, and any of these parasites losing power would be good news for the whole world...)

It isn't supposed to be funny, it's implicitly questioning, in light of the current situation with nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's affair with an apparent Chinese (corporate?) spy, whether these might also be cases of state and/or corporate espionage / influence.

Cloudflare is a cancer upon the internet.

Still doesn't always work on Waterfox.

I don't know about horses, but, as ol' Ben Franklin said after a life of laborious research, all cats are gray in the dark, so the same probably applies to other mammals.

I learnt 3DS Max by myself, I'm sure I can learn Blender unless the interface is as obscure as Gimp's, which I don't think it is from what I've seen (only program I've needed a manual for was AutoCAD, and that was back when you had to type in the commands; helped me learn a bit of lisp too, before they switched to VBA — which I was already familiar with — for the macros).

Problem is finding the time and motivation, but knowing that an expert can pull this scene off in half an hour helps.

Surrealists didn't care about the limitations of reality.

I used to make stuff with 3DS Max back in the day.

Been wanting to learn Blender for quite a while.

This post might have motivated me to get off my fat arse and try it, we'll see.
