If it were up to the lawyers and capitalists and not open source responding to it you’d still be paying to copy files. Imagine that? A subscription for basic utility, and removing it did not “impede competition” or “remove incentive”.
But hey, if you want to, I could rig your phone and computer to pay me a dollar every time you copy or move a file, ya’know, since you’re in to that stuff.
Did I hit a nerve? UwU
Future software is going to be written by AI, no matter how much you would like to avoid that.
My speculation is that we will see AI operating systems at some point, due to the extreme effectiveness of future AI to hack and otherwise subvert frameworks, services, libraries and even protocols.
So mutating protocols will become a thing, whereby AI will change and negotiate protocols on the fly, as a war rages between defensive AI and offensive AI. There will be shared codebase, but a clear distinction of the objective at hand.
That’s why we need more open source AI solutions and less proprietary solutions, because whoever controls the AI will be controlling the digital world - be it you or some fat cat sitting on a Smaug hill of money.
EDIT: gawdDAMN there’s a lot of naysayers. I’m not talking stable diffusion here, guys. I’m talking about automated attacks and self developing software, when computing and computer networking reaches a point of AI supremacy. This isn’t new speculation. It’s coming fo dat ass, in maybe a generation or two… or more…
Awwww =3 poor widdle doom scroller. Is there too much politics? Well tough tits, youngin! Everything is political and you should be able to accept it popping up everywhere.
As for fatigue from politics that try to subvert and enrage you, have you tried not listening to said politics? What? You watch Tucker Carlson?! GTFO here…
Probably some fodder for the “defund the IRS” club.
My big grudge is their method of getting revenue. I’m not fond of ads, but replacing services ads for theirs means diverting revenue stream from creators to the company behind brave.
And how did they do this? Why, man-in-the-middling root certificates…
It’s not only stupid, but evil.
Tbh i hate the mirror universe now… from being a not-so-serious in-joke that came back every now and then, not as much as nudging the timeline, plot or characters into any too serious a direction, to becoming an important part of cannon that I just don’t like… mostly because of Discovery and Picard.
It’s really just too cheesy. Alternative universes, by all means, but just a mirror universe where there’s a bit of a role reversal which stems from can only be described as “a trend in the 70s”.
Mirror this, bizarro that, cod sarn it. To call it a gimmick is a bit of an understatement. To call it cannon is a bit embarrassing.
Now excuse me, I’ve ranted about Star Trek on the interwebz, so now I have to go fulfill the government mandated 3 hours of grass touching.

Trickling brain economics
Uhm, dumbass. “Plenty of trading partners” includes China, Russia, BRICS more or less, requiring access to the straits down to Cuba (something that isn’t so easy for Russia), but excludes the EU, America in general, all due to a combination of sanctions and trade agreements where those sanctions are built in. So every other Latin-American country that wants to do business with them has to abstain, unless they too get targeted by republican and democrat psychos who jerk them selves to sleep thinking “McCarthy did nothing wrong”.
So yeah, “plenty of trading partners”. Cuba is like that victim that gets choked as well as beaten and the assailant (the US) claiming that “they were asking for it”.
Again, read up on US sanctions, trading agreements and remind yourself that the US government is as subversive and crooked as Russia. Cuba isn’t suffering because of communism - or at least the communism alone - but is but one of many countries that have been subverted by the US government.
The funny and sad thing here is it’s the same problem: centralisation of power. The US has way too much power and should get knocked down a peg.
Wow, sanctioning a country to hell, by the very closest trading partner who pretty much holds an inordinate amount of sway in the entire continent and in the entire world no less regarding trade deals sure seems innocent the way you put it.
It’s not like average Cubans suffered and the powerful were protected. Surely it wasn’t stupid gesturing brought on by grandstansing politicians who were looking for more circus to their bread. Surely not.
It surely wasn’t another vein attempt by US politicians made to foster an internalised rebellion, that never took off, because Cuban secret police held the fort. Surely it wasn’t all a huge, worthless game, that made ordinary Cubans suffer most of all…
…because that would be dumb posturing. I mean backwards, brain-dead, completely moronic, inhumane and unethical use of power.
oh, wait…
Sigh… Guess we gotta copyright the human body and face. I fucking hate this timeline.
Do not turn to the Lovecraftian package manager unless you dare. It consumes all, it is all. Your flesh and mind will be ripped in twine across dimensions… if you are a package.
If you’re binary your head will be ripped open and it’s contents modified to fit a new reality.
There is no package, nor source, nor binary that shall be exempt.
All shall be consumed, digested and brought to a new reality.
It will kill the old gods, as there will be only one package manager.
It will consume you.
Please don’t conflate markets, products and services with capitalism. That’s yee old liberal con. Capitalism is a modern invention and it’s all about speculation, non-existent liquidity, shell and shelf companies and bringing back usury run amok, what would have people burned at the stake during Jesus times.
