Honestly baffles me sometimes. I had a conversation with my dad at one point where he argued for making it harder to get disability payments, and that most people on them should have them removed. The irony being that he has had a disability and been on payments for the last three decades. The lack of class consciousness amongst people in western society is insane (or maybe he is conscious, and just a willing class traitor?).
Article says 29%. Either way I suspect it’s more about dealing with the more difficult transitions, which is why the article focuses on charging stations and battery swap stations along highways. So I’m suspecting they are starting to tackle long haul vehicles, which is a far more difficult transition as compared to vehicles who mostly can operate within their own range for a day. Or I could be way off. Either way I don’t think another 11% in 4 years is a low estimate, but given how successful they have been so far I might be off on that one.
The main issue I see with Motorola as compared to Google is how long they support their devices. Graphene supports the device as long as the manufacturer does. With modern Pixel phones that means 7 years, while Motorola currently does 3-4 years of updates. There is also the fact that only flagship devices seem to be the focus for GrapheneXMotorola at the moment, so initial purchase price will be high. Generally the best choice is a used Pixel device if you don’t want to directly support Google in any way.
Don’t get me wrong, I am eagerly awaiting the release of these phones. My wife needs a new device soon so it’s either going to be Motorola or Pixel. Lineage is another option, but certain things only work well with sandboxed Play services, so at least for me Graphene is the only real option (I can run all bank apps that I have without any issues on Graphene).
There are specific people at Novara which I trust to not stray too far, but then there are others who are blatently liberal. The problem arises when others don’t challenge those viewpoints and it’s allowed to fester. I used to follow Novara a lot more closely a few years ago, but the more firmly I embraced ML, the more issues I saw with what is published on there. I still view their videos from time to time depending on the topic, but I do agree that they fit on the right side of that meme.
Yeah… Woke up to a supposed cease-fire. By the time I was home from work the occupiers had broken it. Again…
Sadly with the state of the west at the moment a burka would do the same. Honestly so would most things that isn’t just random cishet white person following societal norms.
Anyways… I still prefer a keffiyeh, but if I actually want to not stand out I will wear subtle makeup, and dress as straight as I can. Blend in with the masses and all. Anything that doesn’t is going to always be a potential target of something.
Just don a Keffiyeh wrapped in front of your face, problem solved. This works for all genders too.
Still just working my way through State and Revolution. These days I can’t get more than a couple of pages done each day, so it’s taking some time despite me enjoying it when I am reading.
Honestly love listening to these guys just talk about shorter topics like this. Already used some of what the boys talked about in conversations I have with local party members (I’ll make MLs out of them eventually, well some are already but anyhow).
Thanks for sharing this. The stuff I have seen from this list so far has been insane to say the leaset. I wonder if at some point we will get a more organized list based on country/region. It’s all interconnected I know, but at the very least knowing which people in you country did certain things is helpful when talking to people locally.
Honestly? Some of us were unfortunate enough to be born in the core (though I’m from what If consider a vassal state), so the hoping for and working towards a mass movement is the best we can do. Even if it’s unrealistic, we have to work towards something. The alternative is to succumb to defeatism, and just wait for the inevitable fall. So we work towards a better tomorrow, because the alternative isn’t viable.
At least that’s how I see it, and I’m mostly using your post to try and figure out my own stance on this. So take my blurb for what it is, a nonsensical flow of thoughts.
That’s cool, though in all honesty I could really use some less reddit in my life. So at least to me it’s a blessing in disguise.
Noticed the subreddit was banned, and couldn’t figure out where to find any info. Totally forgot that I even have an account on here… Oh well, I shouldn’t spend too much time on Reddit anyways. Maybe I’ll stick around here instead, it’s less likely to get reactionaries joining the conversation anyways, which can only be a net benefit.
Thanks so much. As far as language goes I suppose it’s just references to things that I don’t really know the meaning of yet. I’ll figure it out by reading up on each word as needed though, so I think I’ll figure it out, I just need to set aside some time to actually do it.
Anyhow… Thanks for having the Q&A on here, it does significantly lower the barrier to ask more basic things like this. I’ll look into things as far as applying for an account, though it does look like I’ll have to read up quite a bit on the theory first (I have adhd so most of the things I know so far has mostly been from listening from others and just my own ideas on things as reading can sometimes be a challenge). I’ll get there eventually though, so I see it more as a long term project than something I need to rush.
I’m a bit curious as to how I’d start contributing to Prolewiki. I’d love to add some articles and add sections to existing ones where I can (especially in relation to the country I’m from).
The problem is that I have no experience from working with any forms of Wiki previously other than just reading it. Most of my experience comes from working with Wordpress back in the day and more traditional media, as in writing papers/articles in uni utilizing traditional paper based citing methods (Harvard and Chicago). So where would a total newbie even start to work towards writing full articles on ProleWiki (long term goal)? Most of the links I seem to find on the actual Wiki page seems to use language I’m not really familiar with, so something for those that know nothing would be great.
You did indeed cook. Lovely banner.
