I once went through 8 or so rounds of picking busses…

Yeah, I only made the switch 3 months ago for this reason. I don’t see how it is hilarious either.

Oi, I didn’t say you could go! Article fifty seven of the Shadow Proclamation. This is a fully established level five planet, and you were going to burn it? What? Did you think no-one was watching? You lot, back here, now.

One of the better episodes with a brand new doctor.

Well, it does sound like you just read the headlines…

Yeah, it is nearly impossible to dismantle a belief system like this. Just like it is with extreme (both left and right) political beliefs.

Tasteless

I miss my late cats. There is just nothing more cute than a sleeping cat :')

What I am arguing is that capitalism and (classic) liberalism goes more hand in hand than capitalism and classic conservatism. Also, liberalism does not guarantee nor guarantee the lack of monopolies. Monopolies are the result of economics and the industry’s fixed and variable costs.

That being said, I do agree that monopolism is generally bad for society, as it reduces economic welfare (look it up) by generally reducing consumer surplus while increasing monopolist profit by a lower amount, thus creating a dead weight gap.

As a last point, somewhat unrelated, I think that it is an insult to the victims of fascism to call anything you don’t like fascism. I know you are not alone with the comparison, but I wish people would stop sorting people as either people they like or fascists. I think that people sometimes forget that the world isn’t inhabited entirely by saints and fascists.

I hope you have a great Sunday evening though :)

As a conservative (by Danish standards, in the US I would probably be centrist and probably vote for the Democrats) I would say that capitalism doesn’t work well for every case in a society. In the olden days, people would meet in the town square and use the village posters.

Those local communities has largely been replaced by the internet today, and whereas the old communities was run by itself with its people taking ownership and responsibility for it with the incentive to make the community as good as possible, today the communities are largely owned by companies with a profit drive. In these new communities the incentive for the owner (the company) is not to create the best possible community, but to extract the most money from it.

I would say that pure capitalism would be to the detriment to a society. Capitalism is more a product of liberalism (where I am not using the definition of liberalism that most Americans would, but the “correct” definition) than it is a product of conservatism.

I have a blu-ray drive that I use once or twice a year to rip a movie. 5 years or so ago I was the weirdo that has both a blu-ray and dvd drive in my computer, as I was ripping my entire movie library.

Speaking of things that are much less funny… Spquarespace!

I try to say it when I have something to say though. I didn’t always bother on Reddit.

Definitely Lego Star Wars (original trilogy of course). My brother and I played it almost endlessly on our PS2 when we were children. Later on we got it on both PS3 and 4, and I even bought it in steam a few years ago for the nostalgia. On the computer I naturally use my PS4 controller for it.

Pixel 6 with Firefox. I use the default os, as the Danish ID isn’t supported on rooted devices, and you pretty much need it for everything.

My 2 favs are: !dadjokes@lemmy.world or !unclejokes@lemmy.world (it’s like a nsfw dad jokes sub). Check them out, it’s goofy humor.

FTFY

Redied moment

I know. That is partly why I don’t intend to buy one before they support the EU.

I am not in the market for a new laptop at the moment, but my next one is very likely to be a Framework. At least if they decide to add Nordic keyboard and support shipping to Denmark.

As a Dane, I am deeply honoured that you would prefer a Tuborg or Carlsberg. Though I would advise you to try something better than that discount beer.
