    Who "slapped" them with this bill? The government? if so, that's hardly in accord with a free market, and thus in direct violation of capitalism.

    When the government does something, that is what the #socialist supports. #Socialism says "the government knows better than we do; it should be in control, at the point of a gun". The #capitalist says "individuals know best what is good for them; they should decide, and both profits and losses from those decisions should be theirs".

  5. In many ways, the words of the evil AI-organic hybrid mastermind character from the video game #MassEffect2 #Harbinger ring true for many artefacts of code and culture in late stage #capitalist societies: "Take what is useful, destroy the rest"; the irony being that this seems to be their modus operandi now. It is certainly the most psychologically healthy approach I have found to dealing with #LLMs and their output. But it is not how one collaborates with fellow humans. youtube.com/watch?v=OaRdcVYTjRw

  10. One way of looking at this is that #China, a Terrestrial nation within our shared #atmosphere, has spent $5Bn on maintaining that atmosphere by providing #solarpanels to the world. And has infrastructure.

    The #FT sees it in a more #capitalist way Solar panel prices rise after China clampdown on producer competition share.google/FFXVaRu7aLSw4IBet

    Well, they would, wouldn't they.

    Meanwhile the #USA has spent a great deal more on fucking up the world. Not a good look.

  15. #MissKitty doesn't talk about free. In fact, Miss Kitty is most capitalistic #capitalist that speaks out loud that she can find. I demand those that are seeking to make a profit working with the public do so on their own risk and not ours. A #subsidy is our risk. A #loan is their risk. #Capitalism.

  16. I'll keep holding you up here if you want to keep dumping dumb stuff in here. No problem if you think it's going to help your flow. I like to make the argument against #ignorance. So you're useful. If you were a real #capitalist, you would admit that all markets have #fluctuation. Bye-bye. 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻

  24. #Inkjet #cartridges suck and should be banned! Finally got some more paper for my #printer today but then the #cyan cartridge runs out of #ink, so I put in a new cartridge and guess what? The new one doesn’t work at all despite the printer saying the cartridge is full of ink. Like, I tried everything to fix it including reinserting the cartridge, doing the #nozzle check, cleaning the heads, performing a head realignment, restarting the printer, updating the #firmware, printing a cyan purge test page, none of that worked. The last two options I can think of are
    1. Try using an official #Epson cartridge, since we’ve been using aftermarket cartridges for a while since the official ones are way #overpriced, but the aftermarket ones have been working fine up until now and if it doesn’t work, then that’s money on an #expensive Epson cartridge wasted.
    Or
    2. Just get rid of this #capitalist cartridge printer and buy a #tank one, because I’m done with printer companies locking us into #proprietary cartridges. I wanna be able to use whatever ink we buy without having crappy #DRM. Plus this printer is now 10 years old anyways, it’s lasted surprisingly long and has outlasted very other printer we had, but this problem as well as the constant need to realign the heads to stop lines from going through the ink are signs it’s time to upgrade to a tank printer.

    I hope one day the governments of the world ban inkjet cartridges, because they are horrible for the #environment and are just here to keep prices up.

    Pics attached of the #nozzles in case anyone can see what’s gone wrong, but I highly doubt there is anything that can be seen.

  28. ... and don't dole it out as annual budgets, and we do not give out #subsidies which is free money for not getting a #bank #loan. It's #too #capitalist for people used to stealing. All those tax breaks are called socialism for the fucking wealthy. Can I get a witness?

  29. #Sovereign #housing #endowments the way that #MissKitty delivers them are the #most #capitalist #system in housing in #America today. And the only one that will work. I make everybody earn their keep. And I make the money do what it should for the public. We #invest #the #tax #money ...
