A quotation from Douglas Adams

I am rarely happier than when spending entire day programming my computer to perform automatically a task that it would otherwise take me a good ten seconds to do by hand.

Douglas Adams (1952-2001) English author, humorist, screenwriter
Last Chance to See, ch. 2 (1990) [with Mark Carwardine]

I did not go to Spain looking for a new life. At 75, you do not usually imagine…

Hi @liaizon @tomjennings,
use whatever term suits you (while I disagree about the failure). There's no #emancipated expression without executing #agency. Organic can be inspiring, however, you see the pace.
The nerds, as you call them, should maintain options for the moment Goliath collapses. Spreading the word and doing so from you own property is inevitable as the future will be federated. There's no #freedom within #convenience.

And the revolution still won't be televised (even less so in the #Zuckerverse)

P.S.: I'm totally for shifted attention and also think we're peak online. The young go more real.

This is so convenient when in the train: I just connect my #Librem5 phone with a USB cable to my laptop running #Fedora. The laptop gets internet access from the #phone (plug and play), the #Linux phone charges from the laptop. Win-win.

No more #excuses guys! Not #convenience, not #support, not #corporate_adoption. No matter how tied you are to any of them, any single penny you give them from now on is your investment into that #dytopian #nightmare for everyone!

These trashbags deserve #sanctions and #imprisonment at the minimum for this. But can we at least start with a #boycott? Or are you going to accept this #tyranny?

品質低下
現代社会では効率化やコスト削減ばかりを求める構図、いやっ、悪文化が形成されている。「とにかく早く出せ」、「奴らより先に出せ」、そうして圧力を掛け品質の低下を招いてるのが実態。

Declining quality
In modern society, a bad culture has been formed that demands efficiency and cost reduction. "Just hurry up," "Get it out before them," and this pressure has led to a decline in quality.

Деградація якості

Hi @Gargron,
this seems a thread about #convivlal #tools.
Tools tend to be either #emancipative or #convenient. The smarter they are. the dumber and more dependant can you be and get along for now. The less smart the tools, the more skill is trained in you. Choose #agency or #convenience. #Priorities matter. #Longread: https://archive.org/details/illich-conviviality

Hi @tante @Katika,
those devices promise, you can make do without skill. #Convivial tools, however, require and train skill and thus foster #emancipation.
The skill lives in you, not in the tool. Convivial tools make you smart and don't pretend to be smart themselves. This doesn't go well with #convenience. https://archive.org/details/illich-conviviality

Since the global #economy is headed to a #collapse, can we use the opportunity to #restructure & eliminate its biggest weakness - the #billionaire #robber_barons who refuse to accept that things have #value beyond just the #price which they can be sold for?

8000 #workers would have been #employed elsewhere now, if #Meta lacked the ability to hire them in the first place. Please stop quoting
#MarketForces as an excuse to trade #autonomy for #convenience.
