Yeah or use one of those drill-taps they use to tap maple syrup.
- Comment on If every minority group came together under the same banner they would be the majority, and rights would be much easier to attain for everyone. 2 weeks ago:
I think you need to read some more history about fascism my friend. That “pure” capitalist you talk about has never existed.
On the other hand, capitalists were essential to Hitler’s rise to power, and the likes of IG Farben and Bayer profited greatly during the reign of the Nazi’s.
Now we see the same thing with the likes of Bezos, Zuckerberg and Musk installing Trump, and abusing their influence to completely deregulate the markets they are in (e.g. banning any regulation on AI by states).

Yeah but the choice is between socialism and fascism, and capitalists stand to lose a lot under socialism.

You’re right, it’s also about the capitalists who put them in power.

- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 3 months ago:
Why not dual-boot with steamos in that case? Sure, some things may not work out-of-the-box now, but work is constantly being done and at least won’t regress like the step from W10 to W11.

Even though I haven’t run anything Debian based as a daily driver in about a decade, I still recommend Debian based distro’s to beginners. With Ubuntu being so widespread it just makes sense, because whenever you search for “how do I install xyz on linux” it’s going to be a guide for Ubuntu 99% of the time, which should work on other Debian based distro’s most times.
- Comment on Majority of AI Researchers Say Tech Industry Is Pouring Billions Into a Dead End 3 months ago:
I agree that it’s editorialized compared to the very neutral way the survey puts it. That said, I think you also have to take into account how AI has been marketed by the industry.
They have been claiming AGI is right around the corner pretty much since chatGPT first came to market. It’s often implied (e.g. you’ll be able to replace workers with this) or they are more vague on timeline (e.g. OpenAI saying they believe their research will eventually lead to AGI).
With that context I think it’s fair to editorialize to this being a dead-end, because even with billions of dollars being poured into this, they won’t be able to deliver AGI on the timeline they are promising.

State capitalism, but yes.
