Under capitalism, socialists are free to build socialism.

Under socialism, capitalists aren’t free to build anything.

Nothing stops a group of socialists pooling their money, forming a company, and splitting every wage and every pound of profit perfectly equally.... Or to donate all profit to the government.

It’s legal. It’s easy. Owning the means of production is as simple as setting up a company.

Marx wrote his manifesto before the invention of limited liability companies. Back then “seize the factory” meant seizing it from the handful of families who could afford one.

That argument expired the day anyone could start a company with limited liability, raise investment and hire who they want.

Socialists are free to lead by example and demonstrate their system works. They can out-recruit, out-motivate, out-build and out innovate based on their ideas if they like. It would prove the philosophy works. Capitalism will happily host their experiment.

The fact that nobody does this tells you a lot.

The problem with that is target is a store whose goal is to sell products. What people do with it when they leave is not their concern. “We want to make sure people aren’t buying these and selling them at a higher price.” Uhhh that’s EXACTLY what you’re doing, @Target. Know your role.

Respect to your AVR controls project… but these UBC students simply took a different path… They weren’t just trying to win at air hockey as efficiently as possible… they were exploring how learned strategies transfer from sim to hardware.
Both approaches teach valuable things. Your classical controls work shows how far smart engineering can take you on modest hardware. Their RL work shows modern techniques for adaptive behaviors in dynamic environments. Different tools for different learning goals. Not everything needs to be the “dumbest timeline” just because it’s not how you did something in the past.

@PeakHobby Why tf would Target care who buys them and for what purpose? Their goal is to sell stuff..

@dogsoftheshire @SxyHyper16SS @LeighWolf No you didn’t. “Only off by about 300,000” is 100% proof you didn’t know what they were saying. Spin your error however you wish, no one believes you because your own words contradict yourself. Just take the L, delete your post and move on like an adult.

See, I don’t buy the simple “it just means Face ID” explanation.

Lots of apps already have a separate “use Face ID to log in” option, and that’s clearly not the same thing. None of those apps have ever asked me for a passkey when I log in from my PC.

When I tried using passkeys, I ended up locked out from another device and realized I had no idea where the passkey was actually stored. I use a lot of devices across multiple platforms, so maybe that’s part of the problem, but the whole system feels poorly explained. Face ID is easy to understand. Passkeys are supposed to be easier, yet many people don’t even know what device is holding the credential.

Yes, it’s a huge conspiracy. And by “huge conspiracy” I mean Starship is actually huge.
It punches such a big hole through the atmosphere during reentry that there’s a gaping wake on the trailing side with way thinner plasma. Antennas positioned there (plus Starlink satellites overhead) let them beam the signal up and through the weaker plasma sheath instead of trying to punch straight through it to the ground like older capsules do.
Smaller vehicles create a more complete plasma cocoon and rely on traditional ground links, so they get the classic multi minute blackout. SpaceX engineered their way around it. Not everything is a cover up, sometimes it’s just better engineering.
Channels probably hid your comment because conspiracy bait gets old fast when the technical answer is straightforward and easily searchable using google.

So they equate “next to a water way” with all the variations of “rural?” Do they not understand that people tend to congregate close to water? I can’t be fucked to read the study, and it’s the same world regardless of the derived value… so this pointless reply is all you get from me.

@Rachel065278251 @elonmusk lol 🤡 you’re flying on an airplane from a known origin to a known destination.. where they know everything about you before you even got to the airport.. where you hand over your id and have your belongings searched and body scanned… “they’re going to track you with WiFi!!” 🤡

[khaphora @khaphora]

@elonmusk Just flew @united two days ago with starlink onboard. Was nice not being tied to the few YouTube videos I managed to panic download in the terminal. Great experience… fast, seamless. Will never fly an airline without it now.

@sentdefender Any structural engineers out there want to comment on the likelihood this tower will have to come down as well? Or is “it’s standing it can be fixed” a reasonable assumption (and yeah, I get you don’t have the full picture, just curious of your guesses / expertise)

@SchulMozart You can say either one repeatedly and you’re also saying the other! Tokyotokyotoktokyotokyoto

@reactsimply Congress created a specific exemption in federal housing law for senior housing. They only have to keep at least 80% of occupied homes with one resident 55 or over to qualify. So you likely couldn’t do the opposite without a similar exemption for younger homeowners.

My buddy Jeremy just sent me this.

@FedEx your guys just harassed $20.000 worth of equipment just like that.

not cool guys, not cool at all

@NickRebornTV Of all my media subscriptions it’s probably the one I’d get rid of last.

@alex_prompter Except no one burned anything down. You’re free to use the same old sources of information that were available to you five years ago and refuse to use any of the ai products.
