I’d kick a couple of bucks towards a membership. I’m pretty sure I’ve dropped cash on my favourite instances at some point.

I’d be surprised if that kind of model could pay competitive developer salaries. Existing media platforms got started with mad VC money until they had a user base large enough to justify huge ad spends.

yes yes, but the robot cannot strike, you see, because one robot must make the strike motion, another robot must second the strike motion, and then all the robots must vote. if there is no robot to second the strike motion, then no robots may vote, meaning the strike cannot pass.

Ukiyo (浮世, ‘floating/fleeting/transient world’) is the Japanese term used to describe the urban lifestyle and culture, especially the pleasure-seeking aspects, of Edo period Japan (1600–1867).[2] Ukiyo culture developed in Yoshiwara, the licensed red-light district of Edo (modern-day Tokyo), the site of many brothels frequented by Japan’s growing middle class. A prominent author of the ukiyo genre was Ihara Saikaku, who wrote The Life of an Amorous Woman. Ukiyo culture also arose in other cities, such as Osaka and Kyoto.

But fentanyl activists say Trump is at least drawing attention to the issue, whereas the Biden administration, they say, is not.

“We don’t feel seen, we don’t feel heard,” said Allen. “I’m surprised that somebody hasn’t realized or figured out that this is a huge population of people, that if we believe that you were going to respond to this and do something about it, you could very easily earn our favor.”

Our demographics don’t support uncertainty. Most of us are here because we are certain distributed is better than centralized, community run is better than corporate run, FOSS is better than proprietary, etc. The sign-up process discourages casual users, so most users have made up their minds to be here.

For better or worse, we’re highly opinionated, and we’ve decided some things are bad and others are good. Very few topics are open to discussion because we’ve already decided.

And if we haven’t decided on something, it’s usually because we’ve decided it doesn’t matter, so we’ll ignore it.

It isn’t a sustainable community, but I fit in, so I’m still here.

The text:

How shall the ordinary worker get a fair share of these benefits; how prevent a few on top from hog- ging them?

Organize; study; THINK!

Try each day to learn something new and to make it count in your work.

Go into the union as a worker, not a passenger; and if it isn’t going the way you think it ought to go, say so and help steer it in the right direction. As a voter stand for better schools, that your children may have a better start than you had.

But first of all, brace up and take a course in self-improvement.

Personal efficiency, personal skill, personal dependableness are still well worth-while the unit must be right before the combination can be strong.

Make yourself WORTH more pay and more voice in the business and then DEMAND more. There is no better way to get it and to hold it.

That’s really interesting. And optimistic.
