There is many homeless women; unfortunately because of threat of rape and harassment (somehow underlined here), lots of them have to not look homeless. They have to buy fine clothes, and makeup. If you think that people "just have to prostitute lol", you have to ask why you don't. There is a fucking lot of violence against sex workers. Usually people that could prostitute have coworkers to rely on, or are forced to work for a boss (or a pimp, that the same thing). If the first case is the most common in most of countries, it's not available for people with few social connections; which is usually the main reason of homelessness

I think we should not confuse the authority based on oppression, and those based on expertise. However the last one could be justified in front of the community (like the Union), so I would use the word "hierarchical"; the trust we gave in those people is freely agreed between equals.

A lot of website use so much ressources, I couldn't visit its with my 5 years old laptop or my "smart" phone. The only way to access their services is with apps. Fortunately, I could choose FOSS apps on F-Droids

However, loading textual information shall not consume all my RAM and most of my CPU. There is an issue with today web

  • Short term interest: Yearly benefits make the corporation value. Work to enhance stability, such as investment in other open source project, documentation, formation, or code quality enhancement are less likely to qet time
  • Commercial focus: In a capitalist economy, we don't have pure and perfect knowledge of product. Even if it's supposed to work like this, commercials and adds are way more effective to sell products, than a top notch product
  • Antagonist interests: even if workers tend to like making good stuff, they'd rather eat and get housed. Sending a warning because the products are bad or dangerous can threat someone that made a bad decision, which is likely to be someone in charge. Keeping a low profile is (unfortunately) a reasonable behavior

I think that an economy lead by financial interest, open market, and a hierarchy in the production is a good definition of capitalism.

And yes, definitely the way that people get food, housing, and not being exclude will define a lot of thing in society.

So in the end, they is an internal contradiction in capitalism. It just append to be collapse due to lack of ressources and dumb management

We couldn't have non capitalist state with imperialism However, if we consider countries without state, we shall consider EZLN and the Democnatic Confederation in Rojava. Both have very interesting approach of eco-socialism.

Central Unions and big political organizations have cancelled the common meeting planned for this week, because "the far-right didn't pass" This the 3rd time they almost did, I don't know how many warning shot they need.

I'm sick of the blindness of the left management. We seriously need more people in grass roots organization.

The old train will miss me … LITERALLY at last

 

As a member of a revolutionary union, we are supposed to organized in industry union. However, industries are not that clear nowadays; our workplace are often linked with many industries. So, we often make inter-professional unions. This is related to our mistrust of corporatism; we analyzed a lot of tensions and treason of other unions as the defense of specific job (i.e teacher, and not whole workers of education)

But, when people speak of unionized, their first question is related to a union link to their specific job.

Where you are, is corporatism a thing among the workers ? among their organization ? Do you think this is an issue ? How do you deal with it ?

 

The brand new Sex Workers Section of the CNT union of workers and precarious of Strasbourg (CNT - STP 67) call to mobilization for the International day of the Sex Workers Struggles. This day was chosen since the church occupation of Lyon in 1975; if french laws have changed, discriminations remain.

In some city, outside any legal frame, cops are chasing sex workers in the street. The french juridiction is supposed to "protect sex workers from pimp. In fact, it sanctions people helping sex workers, including roommates or relatives, where GAFAM and platforms that actually exploit them are not threaten in any way.

The french situation is one of many incarnation of the discrimination against sex workers internationally. On the contrary of the historical sex workers organization (the STRASS), this section is organized in an inter-professional confederation (CNT) and internationally (CIT)

 

Are they some graphic card benchmark for linux environment ? From my windows experience, drivers are important, and often underestimate. My linux gaming experience is very bad, lots of my game are unstable, and others use a lot more resources than with windows. However, when I ask people, some of them have no issue at all, even with a similar environment (Debian + Steam). I may consider buy specific graphic card to stay on linux, but I couldn't find any clue to know which one are more adapted.

Thx for your leads !
