Your comment is weirdly aggressive and is entirely predicated on the idea that we can't have any economic system other than the one where the ownership class and the working class are distinct.

The whole point of workers owning the means of production is that they will take on the risk as well as the reward. The belief in that idea conjoins with the belief that it shouldn't be possible to profit from the labour of others purely because you have money to start with. It's conjunctive with the belief that the investor class is surplus to requirements.

An argument against this is, how would we maintain productivity if no wealthy people were investing in new businesses or in reviving dying ones? There are entire industries that exist only to feed into this machine. This system, that claims to be only motivated by increasing productivity to increase profits, is only putting the brakes on human advancement and betterment of our quality of life. Advertising is, by many measures, the largest industry in the world. So much talent and effort is exerted on how best to sell people a product they don't need, an art form mostly now perfected to convince us we can't live without these things, all in the name of profit.

I'm not well read enough to say that I definitely believe that the world would be better if we enforced worker co-ops. There's so many other ways things could go wrong. I do think you need to open your mind to the fact that the systems we have in place exist only due to opportunism of those who came before us.

I don't think the 2% figure includes the steam deck, but I might be wrong

Gentoo has systemd instructions right alongside openrc through the whole installation handbook. Pretty sure opensuse is systemd also.

Ford has right hand drive escapes in Australia. Your callout about specific vehicle models is one, not entirely correct, and two, not relevant to the point of the parent comment.

I would say it's actually only a small amount to think about.

I thought Firefox desktop did have site isolation, and I think it might be in mobile too or at least the nightly builds.

I guess similar to saying at least 10%, to convey that it isn't 9.5% or 9% but more than that.

It's a personal computer. Being in a different form factor does not change that.

Not the OP, and I don't actually know, but paid streaming services differ from YouTube in that everyone who accesses the content is paying for the service. On one hand, you can validate that everytime a video is served, it's served to a paying user. On the other, you are receiving revenue directly from consumers to fund the infrastructure to store and serve the videos.

YouTube, on the other hand, stores significantly more content, for free, and can be accessed for free, without being signed in.

First, thanks for the informative comment.

The general rules in my area

Made me imagine that we'd figured out federation backwards in time, and you were commenting from a middle ages Lemmy instance.

When you pay for enterprise equipment, you are typically paying a premium for longer, more robust support. Consumer products are less expensive because they don't get this support.

I think we can request to vote by post although I'm not really sure. We can vote early in person though, and many people do
