I was impressed by how streamlined and intuitive EndeavorOS (with Plasma) is out of the box when I threw it on a friend’s computer. Will probably switch to it myself shortly.

Selfishness may have been selected for tens of millions of years ago in our evolution, but as pre-humans became social animals it’s clear that selfless or other-centric thinking became strongly selected for as well. You otherwise couldn’t have a species that’s almost entirely other-dependent, throughout the whole life but especially for the first 10-15 years of it.

Humans can’t sustainably exist outside of a society.

I mean the idea is that good urban planning would enable shorter and more frequent grocery store trips. Rather than a supercenter supplying everyone within 30 miles, requiring long drives, you’d have things distributed by need, i.e. general food stores every couple miles, more specialist places potentially farther away. Our current layout and shopping habits are contingent on car infrastructure and massive federal subsidies.

Would also decrease waste and increase general health, since fresher, less processed food could be purchased.

I have a few dozen books. A third I’ve read all the way through, the rest I’ve picked up and put down or skimmed.

It helps to have a lot of options so that I’m more likely to find one that clicks and holds my attention for longer.

Plus I frequently reference books for specific info or quotes.

Mudd also wouldn’t tell us why the company claimed there were no issues and publicly resisted issuing a recall back in 2022.

I’ll give you one gue$$

Probably depends on what subculture you’re in. This isn’t uncommon in the rocky mountain area, in the white mormon suburbanite type demographic.

In the West Coast I saw teens working and paying rent but only in working class families because housing was so expensive. So more like helping the parents pay their landlord than the parents acting as a landlord.

Defederation probably

hell yeah it is

Of that $30.50, the person delivering the food got $3 and the person making the food got $2.

Empathy is probably your best bet as far as a single variable goes. But otherwise we’re talking about something that’s incredibly complex on multiple levels, making it near impossible to address as a whole.

I like to envision human behavior and consciousness as a network of tensions and influences. (Perceived) material interests are one such tension, a particularly strong one. Strong enough that I feel confident saying that in general, people will tend to drift towards approximating an ethic that aligns with their material conditions.

The archetypes and behaviors modeled for us in our childhood and throughout our lives are a sort of structure that these forces interact with. We may have empathetic or selfish responses modeled for us by our parents, so those are the responses that spring to our minds when decisions arise. Good behavior modeling could mean the inherent tension towards self interest may be mediated or tempered by the limits of behavior we think to enact. Parents have a big impact on this early on, but so do later role models as well as media portrayals of people.

Social cohesion can be a big tension on people, incentivizing them to not act outside of group norms out of fear of being ostracized. Or on a more subconscious level, perhaps acting out of a “self” interest that benefits the social group, because the lines between Self and Other become blurred. Extending beyond the small self to consider the well-being of the large “Self”, sometimes even at the expense of the small self.

Critical theory may be of interest to you.

it’s either that or something chromium-based

i mostly degoogled years ago

firefox just works most of the time. still have chromium installed for edge cases

I do that kinda shit all the time with my personal scripts, mistakes happen.

This happened quite a few times on Reddit with multiple bots.

I mean there’s quite a few that are at least nominally socialist, and a lot of growing socialist orgs. The socialist movement isn’t dead. But we certainly live in the era of global capitalism.

damn this sounds really good
