There’s a reason democrats are known as liberals. They support capitalism in large part, and that comes with some nice bribes, err i mean lobbying

The brain drain from non-Western nations is tragically real. Intelligent people will see more rewards in capitalist nations and relocate there to help themselves and their families. If capitalism didn’t produce such big inequality people would have less incentive to move there. Ideally we’d have intelligent people spread through the world and throughout many industries, but some jobs are rewarded better than others

I talked to a liberal friend of mine who defended planned obsolescence saying “if things last forever, people won’t have to buy new things, and innovation won’t happen without new consumers”

Like why should I be replacing everything I own every few years? That’s insane

Being more environmentally friendly and cheaper? Where is he pulling that from?

Inventing a new technology from more or less scratch will be way more expensive. And I feel like they’d be comparable environmentally if they are both electric

I was thinking population, and therefore users of the OS. I feel like a lot of western companies are already bending over to tap into the Chinese markets, so if they had to support Linux to do that for software, maybe they would.

Yes! Having the worlds largest country run on Linux would do wonders for its adoption. If all the western business partners just stopped accepting windows files and started distributing Linux packages, it would accelerate adoption elsewhere.

And draw the line there? Or what about instances that federate with instances federated with meta? I think defederating meta is more than enough

You have an off by one bug, the format of the commands says “0-9/0-9/0-9” but your columns and rows are labelled 1-9, you either need to zero index your board or 1 index the commands you give.
