    There are people who won't use services if there's a chance it'll increase their taxes. Only if the means test starts at something like $150k AGI would it make sense.

    Recent aid in California was explicitly labeled as, if you got this card, it's yours and won't increase taxes, etc. To help address this problem.

  2. The 2nd original mistake regarding the was the choice to give the web page/site author control over how the page would be rendered by de browser

    It should've been left to the browser developers, letting browsers compete on their default uniform look and feel for the whole web

    Likely eventually leading to installable look and feel packages designed by expert designers and enthusiasts which you can load into the browser like extensions.

  8. I need to move away from the #CPC #CorporatePoliticalCompex

    Move out of Apple and Google ecosystems

    Move to self-hosted services
    Run my own email servers

    Put only symmetrically encrypted data on Public and Corporate Clouds

    Move to #FreedomSoftware and #FreedomHardware once available/affordable

  9. I would like to suggest

    - Integrate Tor, support onion site out of the box
    - Add a automapper to the browser, massively improving on how browsing history is visualised
    - Someone develop a distributed search engine
    - Someone develop a NetNewsWire clone for FreeBSD, Linux, ...
    - Someone make "hyperlink review blogging" super easy, barely an inconvenience

    In other words: Make finding what you look for and discovering novelty super easy again

  10. I want a browser which understands #WWW, #Gopher, #Gemini, #HTTP, #FTP, #WebDav+#DeltaV, #Magnet, #i2p, #tor #onion (and likely more?)

    I want an browser that comes with an editor which lets me easily create web sites and publish them in some manner

    Why don't we have a "Publish…" command near the "Print…" command OS wide, but at least in nearly all document apps?

    I want a browser which when given a HTTP-URL looks for a "torrent" file and when it find it will torrent files down as needed (and share) files as requested by others... would be an awesome way to load balance a sudden increase in popularity

    Maybe even add support for "app.javascript" and "app.scheme" and "app.wasm"?

    I want the browser to provide a set of styles which the web author can select from to render the page: Article, Paper, Advert, Newspaper, Journal, etc… giving the whole world wide web a more uniform look and feel

    Maybe "index.*" should actually be an index? Maybe open a manifest file instead which tells you how to obtain the web site, which files to open first, have a map of the website, the license of the site, limits of control, etc…

    I want a browser which when given a #magnet link download the folders/file and renders it…

    We need an open source reference implementation build by people who are not thinking of it as a product, not considering commercial interests, refuses to implement shitty standards, is willing to push further, to innovate beyond the limited understanding of how a browser should behave... be opinionated and break the standard in novel ways but supporting them with a compatibility mode

  11. A #FairWage under #capitalism is more than just a #LivingWage

    A #LivingWage is
    + cost of living incl housing
    + the cost of social & family life
    + the cost of doing the labor
    + reserves for emergencies

    And under capitalism also:
    + 10-30% as to acquire #capital

    Meaningful participation in a capitalist society requires all of the above

  12. #AbrahamLincoln on #labor & #capital & the return of #despotism

    "In my present position I could scarcely be justified were I to omit raising a warning voice against this approach of returning despotism.

    It is not needed nor fitting here that a general argument should be made in favor of popular institutions, but there is one point, with its connections, not so hackneyed as most others, to which I ask a brief attention. It is the effort to place capital on an equal footing with, if not above, labor in the structure of government. It is assumed that labor is available only in connection with capital; that nobody labors unless somebody else, owning capital, somehow by the use of it induces him to labor. This assumed, it is next considered whether it is best that capital shall hire laborers, and thus induce them to work by their own consent, or buy them and drive them to it without their consent. Having proceeded so far, it is naturally concluded that all laborers are either hired laborers or what we call slaves. And further, it is assumed that whoever is once a hired laborer is fixed in that condition for life.

    Now there is no such relation between capital and labor as assumed, nor is there any such thing as a free man being fixed for life in the condition of a hired laborer. Both these assumptions are false, and all inferences from them are groundless.

    Labor is prior to and independent of capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration. Capital has its rights, which are as worthy of protection as any other rights. Nor is it denied that there is, and probably always will be, a relation between labor and capital producing mutual benefits. The error is in assuming that the whole labor of community exists within that relation. A few men own capital, and that few avoid labor themselves, and with their capital hire or buy another few to labor for them. A large majority belong to neither class—neither work for others nor have others working for them. In most of the Southern States a majority of the whole people of all colors are neither slaves nor masters, while in the Northern a large majority are neither hirers nor hired. Men, with their families—wives, sons, and daughters—work for themselves on their farms, in their houses, and in their shops, taking the whole product to themselves, and asking no favors of capital on the one hand nor of hired laborers or slaves on the other. It is not forgotten that a considerable number of persons mingle their own labor with capital; that is, they labor with their own hands and also buy or hire others to labor for them; but this is only a mixed and not a distinct class. No principle stated is disturbed by the existence of this mixed class.

    Again, as has already been said, there is not of necessity any such thing as the free hired laborer being fixed to that condition for life. Many independent men everywhere in these States a few years back in their lives were hired laborers. The prudent, penniless beginner in the world labors for wages awhile, saves a surplus with which to buy tools or land for himself, then labors on his own account another while, and at length hires another new beginner to help him. This is the just and generous and prosperous system which opens the way to all, gives hope to all, and consequent energy and progress and improvement of condition to all. No men living are more worthy to be trusted than those who toil up from poverty; none less inclined to take or touch aught which they have not honestly earned. Let them beware of surrendering a political power which they already possess, and which if surrendered will surely be used to close the door of advancement against such as they and to fix new disabilities and burdens upon them till all of liberty shall be lost."

  13. Why don't we do "" afterwards?

    Like when people file for taxes?

  14. Every constitution should include at least:

    to guarantee human dignity, and establish universal human & civil rights

    to guarantee a democratic government and how government is established and organized, with term limits for every public office

    declare that the primary function of government at all levels is to guarantee, provide, maintain, and continuously improve & extend universal access to free essential public infrastructure

    Infrastructure which includes but is not limited to:
    - housing (incl a garden)
    - walk and bicycle paths
    - public transport
    - broadband internet
    - postal services
    - library & archival services

  16. In many ways doesn't go far enough, you want and have some and measures made illegal

  17. #introduction

    A weird woman from a slowly dying post-industrial town that Phillips built and then abandoned, caring for her elderly parents, living mostly online since there is no much else here but broken promises and wasted potential

    When something gets easy, I find a new challenge

    When something is difficult, I find a better way to do it

    When lost I set up base camp and explore & map the territory

    I read, write, draw, cook, garden, tinker, repair, salvage, provide care and make things...

    Someone who goes unnoticed, a walking encyclopaedia, a caster of spells, a shapeshifter, a wannabe immortal, a resilient survivor, a caregiver, someone physically disabled, autistic, tall, someone who longs for a feline friend, lives online since before the Eternal September, a keeper of dreams, a hungry fool, who hates endings, loves closures, who loves scary things, someone who smiles

    Someone who hopes to someday keep bees 🐝

  18. CW: 2023 (Personal)

    Goal:
    Untangle my computer use from any commercial/capitalist presets...

    xkcd.com/743/
    mastodon.social/@mcc/109683380

    For 2023 a #LibreComputer AML-S905X-CC (#LePotato) (2GB) is my personal base level hardware platform

    Anything I develop/make has to be usable on the current base level hardware platform

    toadwater.net/Permacomputing.h

    viznut.fi/texts-en/

    "A useful frame of mind is thinking about your computer as offline first. You work with your computer and occasionally have network access. This usually means having data locally and occasionally synchronizing it with others."

    #LocalFirst #OfflineFirst
    #FrugalComputing #SustanableComputing #NetZeroComputing

    Expect to run zsh, X11, openbox(?), Emacs, terminal, neomutt, newsboat, mastodon?, tor, i2p?

    Test if Gnome is usable... ? xfce? CDE? is GnuStep still active? no desktop?

    Get used to do #Email, #UseNet, #Gopher, #IRC, #RSS in #terminal or #Emacs

    Use #Emacs and #TeΧ to write (dead tree) letters and missives (PDF?)

    Maybe do more in #RawText?

    Do callender things again on paper/pencil, #43folders, Whiteboard, etc.. physical things

    Expand use of Gopher, Gemini, IndieWeb?

    IM.. #XMPP via Dino? +OMEMO

    Find a sustainable open source alternative for keybase? Or develop a distributed alternative using tor or i2p? Trust via FOAF?

    Develop in #Pascal, #Lisp, #Ruby, #Haskell, #Scheme, #Forth :D

    #DigitalBarn
    #DigitalShed?

    Keep repositories in #mercurial,
    maybe source hut?

    #DigitalDorm?

    Find an #anonymous #pseudonymous hosting solution... shell account?... like rawtext.club, tildeverse.org, sdf.org .. ...my own?

    Get a low power #amd64 box? bc too many FOSS projects are still not platform independent & x86 only v.v

    Optimize to run many VMs?

    Maybe can run #android in VM and run banking, insurance, and other apps there? Otherwise maybe get an used M1 mac and run the #iOS apps? perhaps some <100 euro android phones will do as well? otherwise get an iPad mini and use that for the next 5-6 yrs

    Maybe set up a #FileServer (#NAS?) maybe even network boot? and perhaps even a #Postgresql database? Is having SQL DB available on the local network going to be useful? What about other databases?

    #DigitalStreams (#FediVerse?)

    #DigitalCampfires (#Tumblr? Blogs?)

    Bring #DigitalGardens to the "#TheDarkNet" and set up basecamp there, #tor onion services, a p2p chat/IM app, etc.. also explore #i2p and see how to simplify using it.

    #DigitalHome?
    (Tilde?)

    Get back into #AI (but forget Artificial Intelligence, Artificial Innocence?) I want Augmented Intelligencekm

    Explore as many other fun projects as well ... Who knows, I might like them and use them more often...

  19. Do not use unencrypted #email or #XMPP or DMs for anything personal or private

    Anything private which is stored on or transferred via someone else's computer should be #encrypted and you or the other party should hold the only keys

    Use unencrypted channels to negotiate other means of communication which are open source & #EndToEnd #EncryptedByDesign

  20. In general it's better to maintain at least one delay/disruption tolerant communication channel and not assume that everyone will have reliable direct internet access.

    As example: UseNet, Email, are store and forward protocols which are way more resilient when internet is spotty and unreliable.

    Direct web access isn't a given and shouldn't be assumed to be.

    #DDTN #Email #UseNet

  21. If I'd today

    I'd add a , and to the browser

    The mapper tracks of how you reached pages while browsing and can show you this as an interactive map.

    The indexer takes the data from feeds, bookmarks, and the mapper and offers this data to the in-app search function.

    Optionally you can allow others to subscribe to a selection of your maps, indexes, and bookmarks.

    What would you change?

  22. CW: UnpopularOpinion: OpenHardware & OpenBoot & Forth

    projects should (try to) support and extend upon : a bootloader which uses as CLI and Fcode to encode platform independent (basic) drivers on pci hardware and who knows someday more?
