→ What is Roblox teaching children about capitalism?
https://psyche.co/ideas/what-is-roblox-teaching-children-about-capitalism“Roblox is unprecedented in scale and structure, and through play it habituates children to capitalism by normalising paywalls, status purchases, artificial scarcity, and unequal access under the guise of creative freedom.”

@bss It can't, by its very nature. #Capitalism depends on #economic & #demographic #growth - ever-increasing #production of #goods & #services, & #consumption of them, with consumption of the #materials & #energy needed to produce them, alongside more #workers & #consumers. The result is #resource #scarcity, #waste, #pollution, loss of #wildlife #Habitat & #biodiversity, #GHG #emissions & #climatechange. A crash is inevitable.

“ The #Scarcity ” scam, we’re not broke, we’re being robbed.
We are told the same story again and again. That #healthcare is too expensive. That #SocialSecurity is unsustainable. That we cannot afford to house the poor, raise wages, cancel student loan debt, or fix what is broken.
Across the entire #economy, money is not being reinvested in society. It is being funneled upward.”

@ai6yr the big tech guy's are jumping into volcano of their own ego - predict economy will 10x in 10 years.
don't you think if you are talking to older folks they are going to be interested in longevity? it is all too weird but if he really ramps elec semi finally this time, 4 years late, then that is something;
mostly i am interested when mkts flip or asml starts selling more machines or something significant happens - more competition. They promise you the world but want a pound of flesh,
at some point open source crew is going to look in the mirror and run their own distributed inference and federated enclaves, repos, distributed models, not rely on big tech so much, the entire ai trend will hit smb sector,
I think quite a few people will go for local self hosted solutions - we will see how the mkt shakes out #hold the wheel#driving while blind #scarcity #urgency #fomo #holley efi

https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2026/mar/07/uk-stockpile-food-climate-shocks-war. Prof. Tim Lang is absolutely right - from the selfish POV of this country. What worries me, however, is the impact this #stockpiling would have on other countries, especially those with less #money. I fear, in the context of #food #resource #scarcity, caused by #climatechange, etc., it would be a beggar-my-neighbour #policy. WE would be alright - other, poorer, people wouldn't.

"…a theory on #thenewcool: You have to essentially pre-#deplatform yourself.
#Culture right now is determined not by #human teams of editors & producers picking & choosing what youth culture gets the spotlight, but, instead, by the #unthinkingalgorithms that power YouTube & TikTok. Which means the only things that have the level of #scarcity & #danger required to be seen as #cool by young people will, slowly, but surely, be whatever is unacceptable on those platforms."

Weeping Sores – The Convalescence Agonies [Things You Might Have Missed 2025]
By Creeping Ivy
Pleasure—as Judas Priest, sadomasochists, and Flagellants teach us—can be found in pain. Doug Moore and Stephen Schwegler, the guitar/drum duo behind Weeping Sores, also teach this lesson with The Convalescence Agonies. As its title suggests, the sophomore Weeping Sores album chronicles Moore’s recovery from a shoulder injury that, quite unfortunately, prevented him from playing guitar.1 Quite fortunately for us, Moore sublimates his agony into the listener’s ecstasy with The Convalescence Agonies. Debut False Confession received high praise here, making the 2019 lists of Saunders (Honorable Mention), Cherd of Doom (#8), and Ferrous Beuller (#4). On its follow-up, Weeping Sores deliver a leaner, lusher, and eminently listable slab of death-doom.
On The Convalescence Agonies, Weeping Sores level up by scaling back. False Confession established that Moore and Schwegler of Pyrrhon fame could successfully craft a more plodding, brooding death metal, sounding like Morbid Angel making proclamations to My Dying Bride. At 56 minutes with multiple 9- and 10-minute songs, however, the album definitely fatigues. In comparison, The Convalescence Agonies clocks in at 43 minutes, energizing the listener by lurking towards its epic compositions. Moore’s climbing guitar and anguished screams in “Arctic Summer” segue into “Empty Vessel Hymn,” a heater showcasing Schwegler’s jazzy hands. The mid-album climax, “Sprawl in the City of Sorrow,” spreads chunky, blasty, and militaristic riffs across 9 breezy minutes. “Pleading for the Scythe” mixes delicate chords, lumbering beatdowns, and off-kilter shredding, setting the stage for the title track. “The Convalescence Agonies,” a 14-minute monster, boasts the stankiest, dumpiest chuggery on the entire album. Without compromising the scope of its songwriting, Weeping Sores have crafted a tighter, better-paced album than the debut.
False Confession stans might weep when learning that the violin of Gina Hendrika Eygenhuysen does not appear on The Convalescence Agonies. In its place is the cello of Annie Blythe, which directs a broader ensemble of ancillary instrumentation. Like Eygenhuysen’s violin, Blythe’s cello often occupies center stage, dramatizing sparse verses (“Arctic Summer”) and blasty tremolos (“The Convalescence Agonies”). Arguably, the deeper tone of the cello better suits the music, feeling like an extension of the scooped guitar tone. Weeping Sores also incorporate keyboards from Brendon Randall-Myers (Scarcity), which add a refined, almost proggy aura to caveman breakdowns and hyperspeed chugging (“Pleading for the Scythe”). There’s even banjo in “Sprawl…,” commingling with Blythe’s percussive cello to make a demented guitar lead far more unsettling.2 Some listeners will miss the brighter, more melodically commanding presence of the violin. The Convalescence Agonies more than makes up for Eygenhuysen’s absence, however, with its wider array of sonic textures.
As Moore howls on the title track, the body’s pain ‘teaches nothing…no gift / But the passion of transfiguration.’3 Pain may not teach anything to the suffering speaker or Moore himself, but The Convalescence Agonies teaches us that Weepings Sores is one of the most promising contemporary death-doom projects. Moore and Schwegler have transfigured False Confession into something more beautiful without sacrificing their disgustingly awesome death metal core. Sadly, this TYMHM treatment may not arrive in time to register during Listurnalia. Consider, then, The Convalescence Agonies an honorary Honorable Mention for me (and several others around here, I suspect).
Tracks to Check Out: “Arctic Summer,” “Sprawl in the City of Sorrow,” “The Convalescence Agonies”

"Why is it that the left of politics is so frightened of modern monetary theory?"
The left chooses to administer scarcity under the guise of prudence.
They prefer to treat the country as a "household with a flag".

Isto está absolutamente certo. Um modo de produção que até poderia fazer sentido no século XVIII, com o início da globalização da economia e a absorção das colónias no circuito económico mundial, tornou-se hoje um empecilho ao desenvolvimento das capacidades da espécie humana. Sendo totalmente irracional, está destinado à obsolescência.
💯👉"If scarcity is a necessary precondition for making profit (since things that are abundant cannot properly embody much exchange value), this has profound implications for economics (...) For socialists, our entire vision of the future is based on expanding public goods to encompass all aspects of life, from food to housing to entertainment and science. For the modern capitalist class, their vision is of a world in which private wealth (capital) structures our entire lives—a world of austerity, privatisation, and systemic violence.
(...)
In essence, private riches can only really come about because of scarcity; if something is abundant, then you cannot really make money from it. In order for something to have an exchange value with anything else, there must be a degree of scarcity in its availability. If you have a well in the middle of a village that everyone can use, that is public wealth, a public good. But if a man comes and puts a grate on it and charges people to get the water, he can get rich. Getting rich under capitalism is a good thing, right? But it happens at the expense of public goods, which is bad? This is the paradox.This is at the heart of one of the basic contradictions of the capitalist system: that what appears irrational to us is completely rational from the point of view of the capitalist class. What is good for us is not what is good for the ruling class. This is why so much energy and effort have to be put into complex regimes of propaganda and social control to ensure compliance with a system that is (...) against the interests of the majority."

Good news: laws to tackle AI deepfakes are coming. Bad news: they are based on copyright
A key theme of Walled Culture the book (free digital versions available) is that copyright, born in an analogue age of scarcity, works poorly in today’s digital world of abundance. One manifestation of that is how lawmakers struggle to adapt the existing copyright rules to deal with novel technological developments, like the new generation of AI technologies. The EU’s AI Act marks a major […]
