You should edit your post; you’re spreading disinformation.

How depressing. Makes me wonder if that’s part of the reason I’m struggling to switch careers, because though I’m well qualified for my desired role - I don’t fit the stereotypical career history.

Depends how we define ‘overcome’ really. I mean, if cooperation is evidence of overcoming it then the question doesn’t need to be asked.

If we’re talking about our biological instinct for tribalism, well that’s why we’re having the conversation isn’t it.

Yes. Reductive in a crude way, not clarifying. I don’t think the parent comment at all implied humans are inherently bad and the occasional good doesn’t matter.

Rather inversely, humans are tribalistic but achieve good in spite of tribalism.

That’s a bit of a reductive take on the parent comment.

Human nature to cooperate and share is not mutually exclusive with forming in-groups and out-groups.

I’d actually prefer it if they opened up to me.

Ah, okay - thanks for the explanation.

I do like the idea of multi-winner elections because of the increased chance of having a representative for your specific issues taken to a national assembly. In the UK things are split up into boroughs, which seems illogical for cities and aside from being grandfathered in likely only persists because it enables gerrymandering.

What a neat find.

Interesting. Apple & Amazon’s defense argument of ‘stop counterfeits’ essentially contains the subtext of ‘because it was expensive to us, not the consumer’ - considering if you received a counterfeit product it likely wasn’t a hassle to get Amazon to refund it (and presumably by that time the seller had jogged on, and Amazon couldn’t get their money back).

There’s also Single Transferable Vote.

No no, I was asking about the differences between Single Transferable Vote and STAR - not RCV/IRV.

I’m trying to figure out the pros and cons of the STAR Voting method versus the pros and cons of the STV method. Can anyone help fill me in?

All those pesky staff, costing me money to produce value.

The Fediverse is a niche product too, frankly.

And the disruption is the problem. The whole point of EEE is to choke growth of competition.

How is ActivityPub and the Fediverse insulated from this?

I don’t think any fediverse user is concerned about their data being taken. The concern comes from the obvious threat of embrace-extend-extinguish.

Meta’s intent is irrelevant; EEE is basically a given of a large corporation because it helps maximise profit.

The question is whether donations are enough to support the product.

uBlock Origin is not uBlock - uBlock was bought by some company that turned it to shit like many adblockers before it.

uBlock Origin is, IIRC, the open source superior product.
