Understood. Have a good day and thanks for mentioning CGP Grey, haven't thought about that channel in a while.

Also data retention and security it's a nightmare for Title IX and FERPA as well.

Another thing is Microsoft hasn't been talking about compression either, how large are these files? What does it do with networked drives? How do we know metadata collection isn't being expanded?

I just use commerce or trade now. I found a good little blurb about it on medium.

Also, this book had some good points that spoke to me.

No worries! I'm just trying to clarify.

I also think you're referencing an older ideation of capitalism. I think what you're talking about is just commerce.

Check out that NPR article I posted earlier. People are changing the meaning of capitalism and it's helping them justify not taxing billionaires.

~~The book he references in that video does not make the capitalist argument you are making and by my interpretation neither does CGP.~~ Capitalism is not inherently democratic as the market is unregulated by government. If you vote with your dollar, those with more money have more votes.

I've edited my previous comment with more context and sources, and now I see so have you.

CGP Grey refers to dictatorships in that video, not communism exclusively. Marx predicted a revolution of labor that would get rid of scarcity which was never realized by the Soviet system. If you read a bit about it you'll see that the so-called marxists never reached communism, as they kept pumping resources into the government, police and bureaucracy.

Communism. A utopian society without classes, divisions of wealth, exploitation or suffering. Members would provide what they could and receive what they need. The instruments of state, like government bureaucracies, police and military, would become unnecessary and would “wither away”.

Rules for rulers is explicitly about human behavior in heirarchy, not specifically anti communist. He mentions fascist dictatorships and monarchial systems as well. The solution for it is not necessarily capitalism in the video but commerce and democratic systems of voting.

Commerce is not inherently capitalist.

I believe you. Happy trails.

I agree with you on all points. My original post was directed at the RAINING DOWN HELLFIRE FROM DRONES rhetoric in the article and tailored my response to that AO.

I'll paste it into here when I find it but I have a better breakdown of what's probably happening instead.

Edit: I found the comment, however in the thread for the original coment I linked, a lot of people came in to provide really apt and considered context. I really love this aspect of Lemmy when people get together to discuss and share their knowledge on different topics. Many good points were raised.

Agreed and I touched a little bit on that in the last edit of my original comment.

I really think this is Xi pushing a lame duck president in an election year to get a little more coastal boarders. Also showing internally that the recent purges have been effective and that he can now posture with a show of strength.

This could be setting the groundwork for their 2030 plans but I don't think this is an immediate threat on the level of the general media coverage. I mean look at all the engagement it's generated here.

He has not been discharged as of yet and is being held awaiting his federal trial. After that trial then he'll be brought up for court martial (unlikely) or receive his big chicken dinner in fed lockup after his conviction (most likely)

I don't see any source code at their docs. Can you point me to them?

Nevermind I found it

Yes and no. You can capture frames, stream the output to the local OS or export the feed to be embedded in a website if you like. Also you can put it on the backend of another NVR and use it for long term storage, backup, compression and storage for later investigation. All of that allows for using higher resolution cameras and multiple feeds on smaller drives like a two 4TB disk ZFS stripe or something similar. I often reuse consumer desktops for it when price sensitive clients need security cameras, or remote access to a system already in place.

This isn't about immediately filtered content, like the disgusting DuffMan George Floyd meme, or Holocaust denial. That's pretty well kept in check by mod tools. I'm also not talking about cogent or even pointed political discussion.

I'm not even talking about necessarily in this community directly, however in a lot of other spaces I've noticed a lot of accounts using divisive language and terms like "The ineffectual left" "single issue voters" "ignorant right wing morons". Lots of straw man arguments, lots of willful ignorance.

I'm not a centrist, I'm very very very far left however I know well enough not to patently dismiss the talking points of others, outside of course calls to genocide. I know what dog whistles sound like, and I'm hearing a lot of them lately.

Most egregiously I'm seeing very long form post replies that read very much like what is generated from LLMs.

So I guess my question is, how're we all fairing with what might be the largest Turing test ever?
