I guess we better just lie down and give up against the capitalist machine then.
Why strive for better when our masters and superiors can do everything cheaper than us?
Microsoft is shit, for a myriad of reasons. From the quality of the products they sell, to monopolistic anticompetitive practices, to supporting genocide in Gaza.
Not everything in the world is about money and convenience.
All things back-country camping!

There's nothing back country about this, or really even camping. It's on a wooden deck ffs, it's a permanent structure.
It's a nice picture and looks to be a nice holiday, but it isn't camping and I don't think in the spirit of the community.

Some good reading to start with.
One of the main things to take away is that there's a difference between personal property and private property.
Personal property are things like your clothes, your home, the items you use regularly.
Private property are things you own but don't personally use, don't take real responsibility for.
For example, if you have the money, you can purchase a factory. But a factory is too large an item for one person to ever claim they personally run the whole thing and take full responsibility for. There's many people involved in running a factory, from cleaners to accountants, do they not also take responsibility for their part?
If the factory could never run without all of these workers, can the owner really claim that the factory is theirs? It is everyone who works there's. Why then does the owner get to keep all the money the factory produces? Because they stumped up some cash a few years ago?
The owners are smart enough to pay you for your labour. Maybe even a bonus for a successful year. Some benefits maybe when people start unionising and demanding more. But at the end of the day, the owner still gets the vast vast majority of the profits despite not putting in the vast majority of the work. How is this fair?
I've run out of steam now, it's been a long day, but if you genuinely meant your comment in good faith have a read of the links above.
Are they just going to proscribe every organisation they disagree with as a terrorist organisation now?
Direct action on military equipment isn't terrorism by any stretch of the imagination.
I keep repeating this, but this is a LABOUR government?!
Are you me?
I had a very similar experience, except it involved them running after me and trying to punch me in the face, after I'd walked 5 minutes down the street.
Then a few weeks later they messaged an "apology" saying we're both to blame that things got out of hand.
Fuck Trump, fuck Farage, fuck Republicans, fuck Reform, fuck racists, fuck hatred, fuck intolerance. I just want my dumb, funny, stoner friend back, but that's not possible now that he's a hate filled arsehole.
These clauses added to the Bill yesterday grant powers for police to access any online account and the information within it, on approval of a senior officer, through a seized phone or device.
Any online account. So Instagram and TikTok, but also NHS accounts, banking apps, work accounts, they have carte blanche to just rifle through anything and everything that you've signed into? With no judicial warrant required.
America may be openly fascist now, but the UK isn't far behind.
And this is under a Labour government.
If you have any left wing leanings, vote Green in future, convince friends and family to vote Green.
Labour are authoritarian and the Lib-Dems will sell out any principles for a whiff of power. The Greens might have some shit candidates, but they at least support proportional representation and not starting a police state.
Lmao, the internet has gone to shit. My search results brought up no mention of that at all. Thanks!
For any other dumbasses like me, here's the full thing: http://www.gphistorical.org/mlk/mlkspeech/
It is shit. That's clear to anyone who has actually used any Microsoft product. You're a sycophant for a corporation that doesn't care about you and never will.
I don't know how long you've used the internet for, but generally THIS IS REGARDED AS SCREAMING, not this, so no, I'm not screaming. You used screeching in a previous comment as well. You're not commenting in good faith, or with an open mind.
You talk about me going on a tangent and yet have somehow diverted the conversation to Lemmy devs, Iran, China, and Russia. Hypocrite much.
Maybe you're human, maybe you're AI, what's obvious though is you lack a soul. The corporates have captured you.
I hope you can find a way over your corporate affliction, but for now, continuing conversation with you is pointless.
