  • Antenna pod, just switch settings to change the subscriptions screen to the home screen, then put the toolbar on the bottom. Then it's a clean and simple podcast app.

    Interesting nomenclature.

  • Wealth inequality seems like the only outcome in a system where capital gains are taxed less than labor

  • It destroys incentive for speculative behavior on land. LVT increases density, reduces infrastructure costs, vastly increases distribution of housing. It increases the incentive to use the property and or improve property on the land. Property, houses, buildings etc are not taxed, the land below it is. It is extremely pro environmental, even pro business. It's implementation is simple. It's pro the 99 percent and harms owners of large parking lots in urban dense areas (the poorest use of land and essentially a speculative hold).

    Norway used economic concepts from Henry George to utilize their vast carbon resources for the benefit of the many.

    It takes the harmful effects of capitalism and turn it on its head. It is probably exactly what the USA craves. A decentralized bottom up movement in the USA pushing for these kinds of pro human, environmental economic policies could easily overwhelm the current political, tech bro corporatism elements in the USA.

    Henry George absolutely solved the issue of poverty and inequality from a incentives/ structural economic standpoint. It is only the will of the 99 percent that is lacking. The 1 percent can be overthrown easily, in a quick and bold flick of the hand.

  • Just read Henry George. Land value taxes, etc. He had it all figured out 100 years ago. The fact that we still try to determine elaborate methods for building equality is absurd. The correct answers, and methodology is a variable that is already a known, and backed by piles of empirical evidence.

    He adamantly argued two things:

    1. Land value tax above all else.
    2. Labor must not be considered capital.

    These 2 concepts are core to the economic foundation, of building a extremely dynamic society (huge middle class, open financial systems, urbanism etc.)

  • These are not serious peace terms. This is a 1,000 year enslavement project. And a historic opporutnity to neuter Russia's malign tendencies. Might be best to stall and keep bleeding them.

  • Which phone to get for alternative OS

    Jump

  • I've an old OP7T, with 512gb. Only thing is security is no longer updated. Installing Linux is fun, sure, but security is lacking because the hardware vendors no longer updates the drivers. Meaning big security holes. At least this is my understanding, or the thing could act as cloud storage, or at least local storage.

  • Which phone to get for alternative OS

    Jump

  • Local storage is so abundant, and cloud so expensive. We will hopefully see more innovation to bridge the gap for non sys admins. I.e. no more rent extraction!

  • Want to sign up to Facebook/Meta Messenger, how can I mitigate the privacy invasion as much as possible?

    Jump

  • Use Signal instead.

    Or Graphene OS, second profile, VPN etc. But accept all chats, contacts, meta data or monitored. Sign up process using anon data is getting harder and harder, especially with phone number controls. The hard part isn't going to be running it, in a secure enclave, but signing up with anon data.

  • They are releasing watch after watch with near zero differentiation. In some cases the newer models are actually worse.

    It's an impressive level or garbage and waste. I'm surprised people buy this garbage.
