It would be unusual, at least in the US, for an owner/CEO to be funding company projects out of their own pocket

??? Bruh what. Of course many owners have to fund projects themselves. You’re thinking only of huge stock traded corpos, but there’s a lot more businesses than those lmao.

The company’s money comes from the employees’ efforts.

Yes, and the employee receives a monthly monetary compensation that was previously agreed on. The employee has 0 risk involved - if the company goes bankrupt, the employee just looks for a new job. The owner of said company might face life-long debt.

I’m gladly willing to criticize CEO pay and the stock market in general because those things are fucked up, but this tankie clowning “MIMIMI MEANS OF PRODUCTION” is so fucking cringe. Businesses are more than that, and pretending otherwise is stupid at best and dishonest at worst.

If they were born into the same wealth that their master was then sure they would.

If they were, they wouldn’t work for anyone but enjoy their life. So no, it would not be funded by anyone and there would be no product at all.

I don’t think buisness owners being lucky enough to own things

Owning things isn’t lucky. There’s countless businesses that do not inherit an emerald mine. Pretending like every business is founded because of wealth parents is stupid at best and dishonest and manipulative at worst.

The thing that pisses me off about shit like that the MOST is that ivermectin has genuine uses for humans, and really good ones at that - but shit like that gives it a bad light.

Are the employees also funding the next project out of their own pockets?

You seem to think that everyone who is voting for the AfD is radicalized, which couldn’t be further from the truth. Many people who voted for them just saw it as the only option for change. We had CDU/SPD for over a decade where the standard of living declined constantly, then we had red yellow green which tanked it completely - that’s almost every party we have available on a national level. The only options are left and AfD, and I’m gonna be honest, the left does not sound appealing to people who understand economics.

Knocking the AfD down to sub 10% would be rather simple - politics just has to shift into a direction where it’s pro-population, not pro-top1%. Plenty of stuff could be done to ease the economic pressure of the population, but they rather ensure that people stay at the right I guess.

You don’t. This is normal. Ensure key-only auth, ensure you do not login directly as root, maybe install fail2ban and you’re good. Some people move the port to a nonstandard one, but that only helps with automated scanners not determined attackers.

You could look into port-knocking if you want it really safe.

I didn’t want to see this in my feed today tbh.

AI is being pushed into war machines big time. America and China are both working on it. With ukraine showing how incredibly effective drones are in warfare, just imagine the damage and destruction a swarm of drones controlled by an AI could cause.

First of all, no, that’s wrong. The AfD got to where they are in 12 years, and that was from 0 - do you really think it would take them another 10 years to get to the point where they are now?

Second of all, it STILL would not convince the people that the AfD is wrong and they would just fall for the next right-wing populist party. So even if it would work, it would only be a temporary solution to a major issue.

The big issue with any form of attempted suppression will not suddenly sway their voters. It would be much smarter to not give people a reason to fall for populists.

But that would be too easy, I guess.

Imagine children getting free lunches and you still manage to make it about: “ARF THEM EVIL WHITE PEOPLE!!!11”

Got outside, lunatic.

I wear a cheese hat

Your arguments are invalid

I would appreciate it if we could just get rid of this dumbass “hate speech” rule.

Knowing LinkedIn, it’s not unlikely that it was

He’s preparing for an authoritarian takeover.

Almost every dictator in history enacted massive tariffs so they had a way to control the economy. Loyal businesses are given tariff exemptions while all the other ones are suppressed. That’s what Mussolini did, that’s what Putin did and now it’s what trump does.

I’ll wonder if that “we need guns to defend ourselves against an oppressive government” statement was true.

I don’t doubt that, I just forgot that lemmy is like 80% american and you guys don’t have any social security over there lmao.

X to doubt

You can’t argue with .ml people. They just want to praise their glorious mass murderer … I mean, leaders.

It is the best one for people that don’t know a lot about linux. Many people are at a loss when they read basic errors like fatal error: <header>.h: No such file or directory or ld: cannot find -l<library>. Flatpak solves a lot of that by specifically including all of it in the installation.

So ye, for non-power users, flatpak is the best package manager. It also has only one downside, which is the increased storage requirement for apps as they have to bring all of their dependencies themselves, which is okay these days as storage isn’t that expensive anymore.

And everything is better than fucking snap if we’re honest for a second.
