    It might surprise you but animals too show social interactions. They also sometimes hoard resources to the detriment of others. This too is a socially constructed shortage of a resource not a natural one.

    But just like we (mostly) stopped just punching each other to resolve conflicts we could probably benefit from behaving differently, i.e. using different social strategies than animals to distribute natural resources


  • Have you not noticed that the Windows search has become a meme for being really useful in windows seven and useless in newer versions because it started

    1. Searching the web and asking an ai for answers without you wanting that
    2. In consequence syphoning out each and every search promt
    3. Displaying fucking ads in the fucking search results

    And that’s just one example that’s obvious enough to become a meme

    BTW: any form of making a Microsoft product worse for profit of Microsoft is enshittification since they have both endusers and sellers of products that only work on windows/in the Microsoft ecosystem locked in with significant costs tied to leaving.

    You’re missing the point. It’s not the administration taking the money that’s the problem. That’s money (ideally) used to benefit everyone. The problem is the owner of the company taking a big share of the value you are producing with your labour.

    Friend, you are not getting what is happening here. We are in agreement that there are topics that might need some checking in if anyone is uncomfortable with it. That includes sex, that includes war, it includes health, it includes childhood stories.

    I am aware of that, you are aware of that, you are just being unnecessarily confrontational. To which I say: sodd off.

    No. I reacted to someone claiming that hearing about sex needs the hearing parties consent, the same as sex needs consent which I don’t agree with.

    Talking about sex needs to be done with some caution to not upset others, like many other topics. It’s different from the consent needed for engaging in sexual activities with someone.

    That includes triggering survivors who may not have expected you to violate social norms and who would have told you, “hey, I don’t like talking about sex in front of people because I get panic attacks.”

    That’s true but that’s also true for any number of topics. This is a general “how/when do I talk about potentially triggering topics” issue and has nothing to do with sexual consent.

    The foundation of every activity people do together is consent. That doesn’t mean I need the consent of everyone in the room to talk about something.

    The second paragraph has my full support, the first one seems weird to me.
