Avatar of Vengeance@lemmy.mlto Open Source@lemmy.ml•What do you all think about piracy?English1·25 days ago90% of piracy is technically savvy workers taking back something they produced for a tiny fraction of what it was worth, often something which was abandoned, or people stealing movies. Yes, there are teenagers who will pirate indie games. Most of them didn’t have the money for them anyways.

Yes, these guys are just giving you the quick overview. The enemy is colonialism, which has transformed into the neocolonial financial system. This includes all the core countries like USA, Israel, Western Europe, Japan, Canada, South Korea, and Australia: together they control the world’s banks, international legal bodies, high-tech manufacturing, as well as the academic and journalistic training and distribution systems.
So the problem is actually much deeper than a few bad sources. The most valuable fields of study have been twisted by capitalism or basically just destroyed. Just take a look at how they’ve been dealing with climate change. Just because dealing with negative externalities on a business or society level is unprofitable or political suicide, we’ve been treating it like it can’t be mitigated by constraints on manufacturing, and new solutions can’t be invented. The Guardian has been posting the same stupid crap about spraying sulfur into the atmosphere for decades, and until recently they pretended investing in green energy + vehicles + industry could never be made profitable.

Seems like something easily avoided with the Fossify Contacts app since you can just do a file backup

Avatar of Vengeance@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•AI Is Destroying a Generation of StudentsEnglish2·27 days agoThey already taught me to write cursive, so, as far as I’m concerned, the education system has outlived its usefulness. You want a future for your kids? Come across the Pacific, my former countrymen. It’s not so wide and deep as it appears!

USA is the only country that can enact unilateral sanctions on others. It controls the world’s financial system since it absorbed the colonial empires as a result of WWII (I am heavily bowlderizing and abridging this watch the dang videos they’re long sorry)
