Video games give me a sense of purpose in a life where I feel I have none. When you lose that feeling, that’s when you fall back on this shitty cyberpunk capitalist dystopia.

- Comment on Firefox 149 adds built-in free VPN with 50GB monthly data 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, but they also added an AI feature that’s enabled by default that I never asked for.
And I normally advocate for Firefox. It’s been a good solid privacy focused browser for a while but now I’m starting to think maybe not as much.

80’s? I thought it came out around the same time as windowed 95. Or am I thinking of OS/2 Warp?

Yeah that’s true.
- Comment on From millions of dollars to under a grand: The dramatic fall of the NFT 3 weeks ago:
In hindsight, the monkey NFT thing was a “good” idea but poorly implemented. It was an attempt to create a digital version of beanie babies or baseball cards.
I mean “good” if you consider beanie babies and baseball card collecting and the value speculation a good thing. (I don’t.)

Good. I’m glad they’re standing up to this insanity.
It’s ironic though because it’s a California based OS.

- Comment on Borrowing money against their stuff to get more stuff to borrow money... 1 month ago:
Real talk though. Communism doesn’t automatically lead to authoritarianism. We can have a democratic communist system.
Capitalism though will lead to fascism. Because it’s all about the bottom line: maximizing profits and minimizing loss. Company profits are prioritized over everything else. Money is funneled into the pockets of the capitalists and they start acquiring each other up until there’s only one. It’s a big game of monopoly. And the working class end up being used and abused until they’re nothing more than wage slaves. And you quickly end up with corruption because money is power. Money rules everything.
Communism kind of gets that out of the equation. The people own the means of production. They work towards a better future for all. They prioritize the needs of the people first. Progress goes towards improving the quality of life of the people.

- Comment on Borrowing money against their stuff to get more stuff to borrow money... 1 month ago:
Honestly is it any better in capitalist countries?
The moment you go protest something the government or a company is doing that’s ethically or morally wrong or disadvantages the working class, you get beat up by police and thrown in jail. How is it different?
Or if you talk bad about a company you get sued for slander for millions of dollars to shut you up.

Of course the Cuban government isn’t perfect. But Cuba’s most important problems aren’t due to their authoritarianism. Their biggest problem is trade. They’re unable to get the resources they need mostly because of the sanctions, greatly reducing their standard of living.
And honestly, I could excuse the authoritarianism due to the simple fact that US imperialism still poses a huge threat to them, being the only communist country in all the Americas. They don’t really have a choice to have a hard stance to protect what they have. Or else it wouldn’t be long before they get completely exploited the way they have been before the revolution.

With how the U.S. has been apply economic sanctions against Cuba since the 60’s it’s pretty obvious. Anybody who’s been doing trade with the U.S. has been forbidden to doing any trade with Cuba. Their only economic partners have been Russia, China and Venezuela.
More recently, Venezuela was the only supplier of oil to Cuba, and now the U.S. attacked Venezuela and gained control of their oil, and stopped al shipping to Cuba. Because of this, Cuba can’t even produce electricity because their power stations ran on oil.
