So why would you, an anarchist, defend those who literally simp for dictators? Because I'm talking about people who literally simp for Russia and China, which are capitalist countries - China minted more new billionaires in 2024 than any other country. Sure, it also has a bigger population than any other country, but if it was in any way communist, wouldn't they prevent billionaires from happening? And I'm sure you understand that modern day Russia is about exactly as communist as modern day USA.

For commercial software, definitely. It'd be web and MAYBE Windows unless there's a Qt nerd spearheading the project or something.

FOSS is actually better off here IMO, since it's done by people as passion projects, so there's no need to pinch pennies by eliminating target platforms. HOWEVER there'd also be more need for the devs to have different platforms to test on.

There are, but few of them also work on the web as an alternative to the desktop. Writing one shitty web app and offering Electron wrapped versions of it gets you a webapp, a Windows app, a Linux app and a MacOS app. And you already have web devs on the team because everyone does.

It bolsters my theory that LLMs are repacing brain usage by humans

You can have agriculture without private property, sure. You CAN'T have food without work. Or devices for shitposting without work. No housing without work.

Work, and needing to work to survive, is not unnatural, hoarding the results is.

Common mistake, the word 'strawberry' actually has four Rs. Let's count the R's together.

S - 0

T - 0

R - 1

A - 1

W - 0

B - 0

E - 1

R - 0

R - 1

Y - 0

Will Forte has one Shaggy credit in 2020.

Lillard has several after that, including one in 2025 and IMDb lists one upcoming credit too.

He's still the voice of Shaggy IMO, just got shafted for one reboot.

By demoting yourself, THEY think that you are now less of a person than you were before because you don’t have any extra letters after your name.

And that's why you should always ask yourself: Who has a problem?

In this instance, the old coworkers have a problem. OP does not have a problem, or at least did not claim to have one. Therefore, OP does not need to be looking for a solution.

This is also a conflict of values, not a conflict of needs - meaning that OP should just do whatever the fuck OP wants to do.

Since Paramount belongs to belongs to the Ellison family, I'd honestly prefer NETFLIX buying WB. At least they'd just ruin it, Ellisons are gonna do worse.
