Major corporations and global companies no longer really care about nation states or nationalities any more. All they care about is making money and they don’t follow any ethics when it comes to that.

If you push them in one way or another … they just shift responsibility, change a name, change a direction, change a shell company and move stuff around, tell everyone they’ve changed and continue with business as usual in whatever way they please.

They can circumvent any national law for and from one country to another … they can do one thing in one country that can’t be done in another and vice versa and if they get stuck, they just call up international law litigate and get business done anyway.

It’s getting to the point where nations no longer matter much any more … it’s the corporations that have all the power and control.

The bible … or the cartoon? either way, the answer is the same anyway … they’re both made up.

Reposting is like Einstein’s ideas and perspectives of time … it’s all relative.

When you see a meme for the first time, it’s not a repost, it’s something entirely new to you … but to someone who saw the content a long time ago, they may have seen it a hundred times.

As soon as you see it, others will come after you to see it for the first time … to them it is new … to you, you just saw it a second time, a third time, a hundred times, it is now a repost

Just like time in the universe … time moves at a certain rate here but between you and me, we both see it at slightly very tiny differences we would never notice … but jump to a different planet, nearer or further from a star, a neutron star or a black hole and time is a completely different thing for everyone

Reposting is the internet equivalent of relativity

What? … what’s that? … wait … let me buy the ‘listening app’ for $3.99 monthly subscription first … oh yeah, now I hear you … yeah, feels shitty being a product … oh wait … now I have to buy the $5.99 one time payment app ‘thoughts and feelings’ … there, now I feel I can feel it … yeah … feels shitty

Didn’t the world fight a world war to stop this kind of government from taking full control over a people?

This is exactly how I think humanity will play out the climate crisis … ‘let’s maintain the economy and wealth of a handful of people, let the majority die, let the population go down and everything will eventually equalize and normalize after millions die off’

So, if you aren’t wealthy now … you’ll be dead soon

It would be more efficient if we shrunk the power of the wealthiest individuals and made everyone fall under a wealthy limit

Why should one person own and control so much wealth when they will never realistically be able to enjoy all of that wealth during their lifetime? Especially if that one person hoarding all that wealth they’ll never use is producing, creating and maintaining so much pollution for one individual.

Don’t exist until they’re gone … I’m a middle child in a family of eight … mom kept an eye on the baby and the oldest … as long as there was six in the middle, no one really cared who they were until that number of middle children decreased.

Also … the most valuable content I find or want online for my own uses is all text based … reading blogs, forums, news sites, articles, creative writing, wikipedia

I really don’t care about design or flashy lights and pictures … I just want to read the news

I often just toggle the read only view as soon as I find something I want to read and seldom care about what a site looks like … on the other side of that … if the site is so messed up or controlling that it refuses reader view … I skip it and move on

Don’t change the logo … just keep it as is … I identify the app more for the app than for the site it was associated with … I associate Sync with Sync … I don’t associate it with reddit, lemmy, kbin or anything … I just associate it with Sync which makes the most sense to me

That logo only means Sync to me … and as an app I think it should remain that way

Willy Wonka looking straight into your eyes: … yes … EVERYTHING

So it would be like taking out all the leaflets, ads, sales flyers and alert sheets from your local newspaper and throwing them in the trash without looking at any of them. In a small way, I always feel bad when I do that to my paper … such a huge waste of paper that only a small fraction of people actually look at.

Does this mean that in ten years we’re going to have a pandemic again?

I remember reading once that eating insects would be more efficient than eating beef or meat from larger animals. We can harvest from large animals about 60 to 70 percent of their mass as protein … if we did the same for insects, over 90 percent of their mass would be protein.
