  • Have you changed you youtube pfp to clippy ?

  • sometimes you don't have to (or can't) have a full plan A-Z. Sometimes you just have to start somewhere - usually with gathering ppl. euromaidan is a great example of that.

    but yes, louis could have put more concrete plans in his first video. as he has them. on the other hand he probably throws many things and sees what sticks. i guess that is what you have to do, if you try to change legislation against corpos with much more everything than you.

  • we can argue about the choice of symbol until the world ends. the symbol is just a thing people can recognise and rally around.

    the first step of any movement is to gather people. then do something. so yes, changing a picture is lazy, but it is a virtual rally point. he talks about next steps in another video: https://odysee.com/@rossmanngroup:a/you-changed-your-profile-to-clippy-now:6

  • the myth of the good tech giant

    Jump

  • if us lefties could only jump over the hurdle of choosing the exact flavour before doing anything. there are more than enough people on the left side of the middle to achieve real change. but we are too caught up fighting minor differences.

    fasci, on the other hand, need nothing in common, except an indistinct hatred for random people. the german fascists didn't like religion at all, but officially worked with the christian church. still they rallied behind a religious symbol and would have died holding it up...

    meanwhile we are arguing if even having a symbol is worthwhile

  • exactly what i am talking about. age restriction at the physical store kept you away for a while, while not forcing an alternative/underground market. however, if you knew the only way to get it is on an alternative store - you would immediately have looked there.

  • if you can run a private server, you can get rid of all 'phone home' requirements.

    so you just need a cracked copy of the game itself. luckily it is completely legal to remove digital locks on anything you bought in many countries (not the usa though).

  • age verification is just a BS strawman. do you remember when we where young? we would access stuff and find ways to buy stuff. but whenever there was a reasonable but fair gap, it would be much harder to get whatever we wanted: buying weed was so much easier, than buying alcohol (without the appropriate age).

    pirating is easy (even i figured it out before having enough money to buy movies & games). so the kids will just pirate that stuff and get their way anyway. age verification at the store makes so much more sense. sure, there are ways to circumvent those. but it is a reasonable stop block.

  • No idiocy allowed

    Jump

  • not arguing against that. just pointing out that regimes of that time used to do a lot of talking, if it comes to taking care of their people. not that much of doing.

  • No idiocy allowed

    Jump

  • all correct. but to be fair: not even the left of that time actually cared about the working class.

    the ideologically motivated for sure, pretty sure you would have found them on the extreme right too - somewhere. but the regimes, which sprung out of any ideology of that time cared nothing than in propaganda for working people and the weak.

    nowadays it is difficult as well, to find any social security better than lip service and improvement of statistics.

  • easy self-check for these things:

    is it OK for group A to do X? is it OK for group B to do X? ...

    if the answer is not the same for all the groups you can reasonably think of, something about your morals is off.

    not everyone will agree whether X is OK to do. but at least you can detect, whether you are biased yourself.

  • First time making bread, how did I do?

    Jump

  • it depends what you want from your bread. yours looks like an american style bread out of a shape, containing quite some sugar.

    if you want a more european approach: only use enough sugar to feed the fresh yeast. let the dough rest untill it starts to raise above your bowl, shape the bread, let it rest for 30-60 minutes again. that way you should get a much lighter bread with a nice crust.

  • i partially agree with you. but most social media is carefully designed to make you keep interacting with it. because of phones, you can bring a nearly endless stream of distractions everywhere you go. the newspaper you can read a maxim of once.

    it was impossible to get more than a "Mmh" out of my grandfather, while he was reading his newspaper. so i know what you mean. but when he was done with it, he was done with it. after his 0.5 h per day of newspaper, he was an amazing conversationalist and always had time for whoever wanted something. so i would say there is a difference.
