What does that have to do with slavery/slave like conditions and the likely increase in resentment towards CEOs and the likely increase in violence towards them?

Ahh we going to make it more popular to kill your CEO?

Voter dissatisfaction is likely going up, given the amount of people not voting at all increased a lot in the last election. More people didn’t vote than voted for labour.

Only a third of people that voted did so for Labour. Out of people able to vote, just under 60% actually voted. To a lot of people I think our most recent election can very much be summed up by “Well these choices are shit”.

Fun fact, Conservatives and LibDem combined got a greater voter turnout than Labour.

I wasn’t talking about getting rich, my point was working less. If work doesn’t pay, there is no reason to work.

I have a gallon of homebrew 15% ABV mead if they are interested?

It’s ofcom, not the ICO. Are they cowards or are they hungry for data?

I could see a black mirror 15 million merits type of society. Pointless work for pointless pay. But gotta keep the poors in a position that they get something they want from their meaningless work even if it’s got no real value but they want the shiny.

But then what happens to the individuals that reject consumerism? It clearly shown the main character racked up a shitload of cash by doing that. Couldn’t you then do very little work?

Arguably we are already there. Depends how much you want to yourself. My house? No comrade, our house.

Share a house and you can do very little work. You could take it pretty far too. Think of those capsule hotels, could fit loads of capsules in my current bedroom even if you want to have your own capsule - sharing can further increase population. Less than 20 hours of work a month for static fees (mortgage, tax) per person. Food is about 4 hours of work a month. Heating wont change, though you will use more hot water for washing, probably 2-5 hours of work for energy and water.

All essentials covered, less than 30 hours of work a month required per person. Basing this on my expenses in the UK and minimum wage.

And who will buy the results of their labour?

Don’t make it just a day, make it a way of life. Reject consumerism, a single day isn’t enough.just

Do your part to damage their economy. Reduce consumption, fix what you can and look at reuse/refurbishment where possible. Saves you money and hurts their profits.

Desktop Linux on phone (or even better, tablet) hardware would be very interesting to me. But with how locked down bootloaders are in those devices? I don’t have much hope for them currently.

Should just ignore all messages from the UK. 4chan still works here and they are refusing to pay the fine.

Meanwhile 4chan ignored it. Got a fine and laughed. Then as far as I can tell, nothing happened. They are not going to pay the fine because why the fuck would they? 4chan still works just fine in the UK, you don’t even need a VPN.

Its such bullshit though. No one hates our government more than we do.

Clearly one of those horrible anarchotankapalists.

I don’t mind it if the models are open for anyone to use in any way they see fit. If you trained it off public works and made it available to everyone, I am ok with that.

Wouldn’t they at most have to comply with a DMCA takedown request within a reasonable amount of time? At least that seems to be what major platforms do. Not actually sure what happens for smaller platforms and many lemmy instances are hosted and owned outside the US too.

Pretty sure most of any generation have never heard of Lemmy
