That’s pretty much the universe being compatible with the big bang

It amazes me that people who can’t distinguish between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’ are allowed to manage people

Don’t. In this case yes, but overall there are dyslexics who are great managers. And on a more sober note, I’d rather have a manager who is shit in grammar but works for the team rather than a PowerPoint manager.

my ubuntu laptop is running Microsoft Defender

How does that even work? Just wine it?

“Incentives” for the purchasing party.

how would this work in your utopia?

Like it did in the US in the 1930-60s. Not gonna reinvent something that has proven useful and effective enough to create a superpower.

Seems difficult to raise capital that way.

Something something banks?

Would you put more large cap projects in the hands of a government? Things like power plants, large buildings, etc?

Power plants are a perfect example of infrastructure that need to be national and not private in order to be technically and financially efficient. Running them for profit either means you end up overlooking safety for profit (see David Besse) or hiking the selling price which is detrimental to both your industry and population.

Large buildings are just not on the same financial scale or are just uselessly tall.

A desktop running a low usage wouldn’t consume much more than a NAS, as long as you drop the video card (which wouldn’t be running anyways).

Take only that extra and you probably have a few years usage before additional electricty costs overrun NAS cost. Where I live that’s around 5 years for an estimated extra 10W.

Clean the PC and change the fans. Fans make noise when old.

I tried it, but ended on heliboard which has glide typing, Floris didn’t at the time

Why the need for an extension in the browser? One can add max date to any search engine search terms and limit the results too.

Because it’s not an extension or a tech tool. It’s an art project, in the form of an extension. The purpose is not the tool, but the message.

It’s still good PR for linux

The reductions will largely hit product development, internal operations, and customer support,

So HP is geared towards buggy products and shit customer support.

Booking is a nice search engine. Once you found the hotel, go to its own website using name and address as search terms, then book from there for cheaper.

Yes, with dosbox.

There is a case in the Acts of the Apostles where two people lie to the Church, and pretend to donate all of the proceeds from selling their land to the Church and drop dead. This wasn’t because they didn’t give it all, it’s because they publicly gave in front of many others as a show of holiness.

Nope. Acts 5 follows acts 4 (the “But” makes it clear), and acts 4 is all about giving up your riches to live in a commune.

That’s also supported by the teaching that rich people won’t go to heaven (unless you can pass a camel through a needle hole) and James.

Acts 4 along mark 10 are pretty clear that Christians are supposed to give it all and live in a community where “as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, and laid them at the apostles’ feet: and distribution was made unto each, according as any one had need.”

This is also supported by the teachings that literally states rich people won’t go to heaven (unless they give it away).

So Jesus and early christians were all about living in a commune.

Now, most modern churches come from a roman imperial implementation of an uprising religion at a time where different temple within polytheism were associated with concurring political factions leading to unstability. Christianity was authorized, then chosen as a state religion and accordingly structured. Things branched out from there, becoming a central part of international politics throughout the middle ages, then different flavors of christianity raising from protestanism (which remain globally a minority compared to catholiscism), but they are all structured towards their own goals rather than Jesus’s teachings.
