Paradoxish posted:The home solar industry is absolutely filled with scammers pushing various financing schemes so this isn't surprising at all. Residential solar is similar to residential roofing in that it's a finance/sales industry first and a contracting industry second. Yeah I looked into one of those no cost solar installation services once and it turns out the way it works is you sign over all the tax benefits you get to the company in perpetuity.

Shear Modulus posted:stopping facebook from taking over the country and spreading antivax bullshit and/or inciting an ethnic cleansing while snuffing out all domestic competitors is exactly what westerners mean by totalitarian anti-freedom censorship that the evil CCP does to brainwash their citizens and desperately cling onto power though Yeah but China bad. They only have one party instead of pretending to have two and that's called authoritarianism.

genericnick posted:Eh. Wouldn't really say that. OWS was taken down by an organized assault of the DHS while the media was only talking about annoying drum circles, with BLM an incredible number of people were gassed and beaten by the police while the media pretended that BLM is actually an NGO that raises awareness and funds, that you can give money to in order to absolve yourself of your sins. It's not that different though one is longer ago than the other so the official position has had more time to replace what actually happened in the public consciousness. My wife and I took a walking tour through NYC one time. The tour guide turned out to be former NYPD, and when we got to Zucotti Park he told us it was the site of the famous Occupy protest, which ended when the weather turned cold and the protesters all went home to their mother's basements.

gradenko_2000 posted:the internet was a commons, and then they enclosed it The first man who, having enclosed a piece of ground, bethought himself of saying "This is mine", and found people simple enough to believe him, was the real founder of civil society. From how many crimes, wars and murders, from how many horrors and misfortunes might not any one have saved mankind, by pulling up the stakes, or filling up the ditch, and crying to his fellows, "Beware of listening to this impostor; you are undone if you once forget that the fruits of the earth belong to us all, and the earth itself to nobody."

 There is a viable alternative to the problems raised by Bill Gates in his irate letter to computer hobbyists concerning "ripping off" software. When software is free, or so inexpensive that it's easier to pay for it than to duplicate it, then it won't be "stolen". —Jim Warren, July 1976

navyjack posted:This is where I’m at. I realized that a combo of post-pandemic agoraphobia, post-pandemic prices, and just getting older means that I don’t take advantage of city life anymore. I'm in the middle of doing this. Used to live in the heart of downtown and I absolutely loved it in my 20s, and steadily grew to hate it in my 30s (the city got a lot worse too, it wasn't just me that changed). Last year I bought 4 acres in the middle of nowhere at the south end of the Appalachian Mountains. People have warned me about chuds, and there's definitely plenty there, but it's also just a different culture overall. The surrounding area used to be a factory town and the factory up and left several decades ago. These people had to genuinely rely on each other to survive and there's an actual spirit of community that has survived with it.

skooma512 posted:Someone said their kindergarteners are just straight up feral now and don’t know how to act around other kids so they just fight each other and try to use scissors as shanks. They don’t even group play or make friends at playtime, it’s all against all. I was talking to someone the other day who told me his wife quit teaching after 30 years because of this. He said the kids are literally impossible to control and everything she had used throughout her career was no longer working so she just gave up.

Our economic system literally cannot allow people to be healthy, and average calories eaten per day is just another number that has to keep going up forever.
