i’ve voted with 5 as more and 1 as less, iirc it was written right in the section (even tho as you said there is also ‘‘agree’’ on the 1 so idk lol)

Cool af!

Looks like they are not biking into cities nor highways, so it probably won’t happen anything dangerous regarding that :o

honestly i don’t like automated systems based on content of the post rather than number

too easy to become biased against non native talkers and occasional promotion is healthy in a community

p.s. i’m also thinkign out loud, the web is too empty of actual discussions like the one we having right now, not everything has to be published only when finished :D (even tho on commercial social media it’s actually the opposite of having too much noise lol)

Thank you! I knew about fediseer but wanted to know more battle tested and technical solutions (if there were any) like, idk, having some kind of fail2ban but not so low level

Didn’t know about threativore, nice

Still weird we don’t have yet an automod directly into lemmy lol

(And I still get negative number of posts because of the deleted ones :D)(and they still have some cache like user should be able to restore their stuff, they shouldn’t)

i use this and i don’t feel like having any kind of trouble, but on my pi i only have music, rss feed and rss bridges so my usage is pretty lightweight

Cool concept :)

If you feel like digging more, the books cited in the article are good. I’ve read digital minimalism and I plan to read the new one “slow productivity”

Thank you for slowing down 🤝

proposed by different people

English speakers internet literate so we would have already cut down most of the world

then we help each other within our limited means

So it doesn’t solve the problem that is the fact that the richer(s? 🤔) need to pay for the lasts and we would be just in a worse situation than now (at least here in Europe would be much worse than status quo, in US idk)

The system I propose applies to everyone who agrees, without geographic bounds. You pick and choose the agreements that you believe in, and therefore the people you want to associate with, and the way in which you want to associate with them. It’s consent vs coercion.

Yep I got this part right and I’ve also had the same idea in the past. But never tried to implement it because of the stuff we already saying + if someone is already paying 40% of their income in taxes how would they live agreeing to another set of law for another 40% of the remaining? Either all reclaiming some sort of indipendence from their country (and now we asking people much more than just following the rules, but to live as outlaws in their countries) or idk living with almost no income. Reclaiming land by grouping in an area and slowly taking political control by consent still looks more realistic and less dangerous to me (but it requires people to move and looks like no one wants that lol)

maybe even a nuclear exchange

People that want this could agree on this and could be the people that have the power to do that while us agreeing on not doing this with 0 power over them, for example. Or just most of the world agreeing on “there may be only 2 genders and 2 only” and stuff like this :o

I find myself wishing to exclude me and my people from the system but that would be just a way to protect us during the future events, not to actually change the world

Btw check out the, I think abandoned, basisproject.net in the meanwhile; also circles basic income

i kinda agree on everything and i also think about social networks with a positive outcome quite a lot myself so i’ve read it interested in the topic. The main issue is the old ‘‘the devil lies in the details’’.

sharing agreemement, easy; sharing them with technology, easy; creating communities around those agreements, kinda easy and so on. What’s the hardest bottleneck? actually recreating a whole legislation of agreements. All of this stuff doesn’t require a single platform, we already live deep down a form of this social network governed by game theory. Every platform we use every app every club we go to every group have implicit agreements.

So the question is: does making them explicit help or not?

My answer is… Not really. We have rules everywhere, also on this lemmy instance. I wrote them kinda carefully to be based on easily agreeable principles and to set a tone and, most of all, to be brief. Having agreements for everything goes against being brief and easily agreeable. The skii example is a good one: what if i don’t skii? i just don’t partecipate in the agreement and so weaken the power of those who do? What if all poor people agree on universal healthcare but rich people don’t? This brings us to the part of ‘‘convincing people to agree’’ and so we are just making politics from scratch again.

I think this comment is a bit chaotic but i’ll try to make a tldr: a platform like that would be overhead and in some cases also dangerous; we need to raise the common ground by talking to people, there are no tech tools to hack this (no, AI could just parrot an emphatic leader, can’t actually choose the words to connect to the person we have in front of). We can’t escape the political spade work :O

p.s. i also have on my mind to write a blog post about this, how people keep trying to solve the moderation problem with tech instead of just making it sustainable to resolve it socially

I don’t need Marx for class analysis and I agree on being united. What I do not like is puttingn theory in front of praxis. I won’t ever say “I won’t unionize with this Marxist”, I just won’t play their theory game on their field 😎

As I said, don’t need Marx to still get to the same direction of unions, associations, cooperatives, NGOs, mutual aid, sabotage, anticonsumerism and so on 🤝

Idk to me every time a Marxist talks I feel like he is more focusing on defending Marxism and trying to say “Marx already said it he said everything so read Marx and be Marxist” rather than anything useful else lol

I’m not gonna read Marx because people who read it are insufferable and we can explain a better world in much easier words thanks to sociology and psychology anyway 🤷

Uh, nice point of view :O

I won’t read their paper because every kind of DAO is the same in the end so I can generalize it.

They probably use a DAO form to raise money from people giving them back a token that allows them a form of digital ownership. Basically is what an association or a cooperative can do but if they do not actually build that coop or org it just stays a useless token in front of the law. Are they conscious of it? Who knows. Is it good? Ehhh, only if the people behind it are actually iron willed and will keep the mission in front of earnings because, as I said, legally the ownership is on them and not on all the token owners.

I’d avoid it. There are a lot of ways to pay associations to plant trees or ensure wildlife while also not feeding a bullshit machine :)

You know it good, so you also know that blockchain is just a technology. Don’t strawman me pls, I never said to use the existing chains based on cryptonomics :)

Btw NGOs presence is not a good enough marker because usually every chain already got a foundation

Like day-to-day things that make a persons life easier, not harder?

Yes, but without them knowing. Stellar is good to exchange currencies, Circles was good as a basic income and stuff like Handshake.org could decentralize domain name systems, Holochain for a decentralized cloud, something like Filecoin to incentivize piracy… Special mention for Monero even tho it’s a dangerous weapon that allows both good actor and bad actors to be invisible.

I’ve been a bit in the bubble and I can say that most of the stuff, even when led by good principles, it just becomes a form of capitalism because cryptonomics is just capitalism with less technical steps. Stuff like DAOs could be good if the government could acknowledge them but the government could just fucking ease a way to share properties and associations skipping entirely the DAO step lol.

I could write more but sorry I don’t feel like it because here the sentiment is clear.

I’d just ask people to not assume that blockchain = proof of work or blockchain = cryptonomics. A blockchain is just one way to share a database, it can be useful. Could be useful also for fediverse actually, as an identity provider to allow people move instances without losing account but without also referring to a central authority without the need of any cryptocapitalism (basically dns, the use case I already listed with handshake.org).

You either need a central authority or a blockchain

I’m all for the practical side when the aiming result is also practical, like a training for organizing people or guerrilla gardening or how to influence urbanism and so on

But if the content is basically what “our climate change” and “not just bikes” offer on YouTube + a sprinkle of solarpunk I feel like it’s neither practical nor principled :)

Google forms, eventbrite, shop full of “”collectibles”(aka garbage), prices for tickets to pay every part of the event instead of crowdsourcing everything except for the server, not so little price for the tickets, domain squatting for “solarpunk”, presence only on mainstream social medial (Twitter included!!!), very little praxis… At least they do publish some talks on YouTube, even tho it’s stuff that some channel already explain.

I don’t like to be a killjoy because it’s not solarpunk to watch and point mistakes of people who try but this really feels like more trying to earn something out of solarpunk rather than trying to change something out there

I hope I’m wrong :/

Agree :)

Panic without hope does nothing but accelerating issues

I’m also non native but I always hear it only from right wing people so I assumed that is at least a bit derogative

I’ve done the mistake of opening his profile. This guy calls “aliens” the immigrants 😅

He is probably just having hard time coping with stats that measure something more useful than economy or weapons and realizing that maybe USA are not an example

The US being on par to Saudi Arabia and Ethiopia is disengenuous

The full report is in the link; btw i don’t know the Ethiopian situation, are you sure it’s worse? Just because it’s generally a poorer country doesn’t mean that unions are in a bad shape 😅

“The hated one” is the king of biases

His way of writing, presenting his ideas and branding himself screams “conspiracy theories for people emotionally attached to hollywood presented hackers”

I don’t know if I should remove the post honestly. Your comment could actually help someone see why this YouTuber should not be followed but people could also just think that having the link up means that is fine here.

unless you were planning to delete the thing, which doesn’t make much sense

Why not? You keep every film every episode every-thing you consume?

i’m part of tech workers coalition, using ‘‘AI’’ hype to leverage some firings of bullshit jobs is just to make shareholders happy and workers scared

i can agree that the technology is here but i’ve kept using “AI” in quotes because as you also know there is nothing about artificial intelligence, it’s very much still a machine learning stage

AI is the capital trend and companies that cannot benefit directly from it are doing the firings to still be nice to the shareholders

let’s call it machine learning and let’s acknowledge that we already had way a lot of bullshit jobs in society: if being able to fire people keeping the same productivy was a sign of post-labor we’ve been living signs of it for looooot of times.

and i don’t say it’s impossible, just saying that post-labor or post-labor just for rich people is really a matter of how we shape society more than how technology evolves under the will of capitalism

i hope i don’t come out as harsh, it’s late and i’m a bit tired so i may be using a tone i don’t want to use, i’m not native in english w.w

based off of the hard work of those same human artists

copyright and copyleft are needed just because we live in capitalism and so they can be instruments to defend yourself from it but it’s more solarpunk to have every information as a libre common

how cruel to leave human artists struggling under capitalism while machines produce art

not like they were fine before these new models, workers power keeps decreasing unless a category starts to fight. look how writers in hollywood actually saved themself from all of this.

Unionizing, like therapy or gym, is not possible to be bestowed upon people against their will. It’s sad but apparently works better if everyone unionize their own category…

i wouldn’t mix the post-labor with ‘‘ai’’ because they are overhyping it just for the usual capital needs;

i agree on the rest of the answer tho, i feel like listening to someone saying you can’t take a photo because you have to draw or paint them to show your skills

to me, art is something that wants to express an idea or a feeling in some performative way. we can say that generating without adding anything is a bit cheap, a bit like a doodle compared to a finished opera, but i don’t like to divide art from non-art just for the instruments used

I mean… I don’t want to sound a smartass but it’s the whole point of organizing. If one person alone can sabotage your actions are we sure that they are the issue? Just plan strategically aware of your powers for some achievable targets and so you can keep people who don’t want that same target or ruin the plan away. The naiveté is thinking we can avoid using their tools against them or trying to do politics without getting our hands dirty with some incoherence or ‘‘impurity’’

in this answer there also could be a space for ‘‘machiavellan’’ leftists that find more barriers instead of allies because they are not pure to others but it would be a bit of shouting against the wind lol

it’s sad having to think about politics like a strategy game? yes

do we have an alternative to have the future we want? not really

One thing that is not talked enough, and in fact it’s not discussed in this blog post also, it’s the need of staying away from parents for some time or more. Villages are just doomed to be abandoned by anyone who wants to explore any facets of society that need high density of population to be developed…

At this point is probably easier to just reclaim cities imo, aiming for the smaller ones

wow, now i want a mini rack :D

Personally I would just do a public list that they all can read to avoid buying unnecessary junk. Anyway, if they use Amazon you can do a proper wishlist and just share it with them. I know it would be nice to avoid amazon but, honestly, you are going to raise a child soon, better pick more important battles like his/her education!! Don’t worry too much about the rest, just go for a comfy middle ground and then use your energy for the child :)

i don’t know if it exists but it’s really easy to know about them before they happen: follow the politically active collectives, associations or unions of your city and you will find out. rss, activitypub (fediverse) and telegram are suited for the job because timeline won’t make important posts disappear in favor of ads or posts with more engagement.

thank you, lemmy is full of these little bad interactions :o

one year ago was even much worse lol

it already exists: !buyitforlife@slrpnk.net

P.S.wrong community, you had to post on !meta@slrpnk.net
