Can’t you just use another instance to unblock Mastodon?

I’m with you, but it’s very hard to find a consensus on what is work and what isn’t. What if someone decides to be a musician who makes music that no one else wants to listen to? What if someone wants to build sand castles in Antarctica? What if someone wants to be a landlord or a CEO? If you asked landlords or CEOs in today’s system, I’m pretty sure they’ll see themselves as (hard) working people which probably many folks in this community would object.

I think in capitalism and socialism you have contributers and profiteers. IMHO, the difference isn’t about people working for others or not, but the level of inequality.

PS: Don’t get me wrong. I’m not arguing against socialism, but specifically against the point in the meme.

those who don’t want to work should still be given the Basic needs to live

I 100% agree. But that then also involves redistribution of wealth from working to non-working people. From my moral PoV, it’s a much better form of wealth transfer than in capitalism, but the claim in the original post was that it doesn’t happen at all in socialism. And in least in the vision of socialism that I have in mind with universal income etc. that’s not correct.

What happens to those who refuse to work then? Let them starve to death?

Furthermore, it’s IMHO hard to draw a line between being ‘unable’ and ‘unwilling’ to work. Some people have more energy, a higher level of motivation or have developed better skills than others. It’s an ethical question that can’t be answered definitely, but I wouldn’t necessarily say that it’s a person’s individual fault to be ‘lazy’. It’s rather the result of their genetics, socialization etc.

Wouldn’t that apply to both systems somehow? Just that in socialism you’d distribute it earlier and more equally.

Mostly successful. But also for rare occasions it’s useful.

I like spicy food and use so much pepper and chili that also my girlfriend got used to it. But when I cook for other folks I don’t know yet it’s sometimes hard to correctly estimate the appropriate amount to add. And if it tends to be too hot for someone, it’d be great to have an anti-spice to offer. Of course you can also add something creamy but that also changes the look, texture and taste.

It’s not free but if you charge your account with 10€ you get 100 days of flatrate for more or less all international landlines. After these 100 days or calls on mobile you pay 1-3 cents per minute.

FreeVoipDeal is super cheap, allows you to use an already existing own number and can be used with any client that supports the SIP protocol.

What about the other 4 in '98 though?

FitoTrack is amazing. It has a really simple UI, supports various different activities, GPS data is very accurate and it provides very detailed statistics. Heart rate measurement is supported as well. No ads, no trackers, open source, available on F-Droid.

In a way that it allows me to salvage any burnt bread by simply unroasting it? Or a time machine that will take me back to the dinosaurs but I’ll arrive dead and crispy?

I never did, but I also don’t know any other Lemmy user in person, so I guess it’s pretty pointless to share my profile.

From my perspective Lemmy by far isn’t as user-centric as Mastodon. In Mastodon you mainly follow people whereas in Lemmy you subscribe to communities.

Congratulations and good luck with your publication!

If you want to avoid conflicts maybe drop a short message to one of the mods upfront but otherwise I wouldn’t worry too much! :)

And pours the boiling water on its legs.

Anyone knows how that fingerprinting might have worked here? Unless you used a very specific combination of browser extensions, I can’t get my head around how it could track you… Or do they maybe use external services like Google Analytics to identify users? But even that would require that you logged in somewhere else before with that same browser.

Does someone have experience with a de-googled Android phone (graphene, /e/, …) for professional use in IT? I need a ton of authenticator apps (Microsoft Authenticator, Oracle Authenticator,…), various VPN apps and privacy-invading ‘security’ apps. Does such stuff typically work without play services and with a custom rom?

In the past I used a custom rom on my private phone and already there it was a bit of hassle to get the banking app running. I’d assume it to be worse with these professional spyware apps. Am I right?

Yes, not too far away from a City with ~100k people.

PS: As a last resort - if she can’t get find someone to pick the stuff up - most places in Germany offer a service called “Sperrmüll”, a kind of garbage collection specialized on furniture which doesn’t cost much (~5€ per m³).

Half a year ago I posted a 15 year old Flat Screen TV, a 2.1 sound system, a smoke detector set and a couch table from Ikea for free. I had more than 100 messages in two hours and everything was picked up on the same day. I guess it really depends on what you want to get rid of and at what price. If you give away good stuff for cheap or free, there’ll be a ton of attention. Old fashioned furniture however might be rather hard to get rid of.
