Got the nano command not found error and it immediately started jumping to workarounds. I guess trying to edit elements in a config file without entering it which I’m sure is possible, but I just asked if it might be simpler to install nano first and it said “yea that is probably easier.” I know they’re trained to be super agreeable and stuff but come on man.

@Rwoeidk@poa.st Dr Sex isn’t coming back

@roland@pl.starnix.network @Griffith@clubcyberia.co Yea the benefit of the these new humanoid robots is that they’re a cost effective way to “slot in” to processes that could be automated but would be cost ineffective to do so. What you’re describing could likely already have been automated but not in a way that would ever make financial sense.

@roland@pl.starnix.network @Griffith@clubcyberia.co Like where Claude does recognition on what it’s trying to fold and implements an operation specific to that object? I don’t think you’d need something as powerful as Claude for that.

@newmodel@shin.mugicha.club Say hi to Woodshop for me

@newmodel@shin.mugicha.club It depends on what city you’re in. Potentially all of the above.

@anime_outdoor@poa.st Ok. Show me where the tan ends.

@Griffith@clubcyberia.co Really though. Ask it “what are some low cost barrier methods to monetizing” or something.

@Griffith@clubcyberia.co This is what I say to gambling addicts on the path to recovery

@Griffith@clubcyberia.co We’ll see. No matter what it’s going to cost me a good chunk of money to try. I’m going to have to make a twitter account too.

@Griffith@clubcyberia.co When I worked up the courage (maybe after my move) I was going to talk to it about my clothing idea. I think there’s something there with regard to marketing towards old European identities. I think people want that.

@Griffith@clubcyberia.co talk to it for 3 hours about a cost conscious way to implement 10g networking in your home only to tell you at the end that your use case won’t benefit from it

@Griffith@clubcyberia.co Install pleroma on a Trunas incus container

@IsekaidStug@poa.st I’m just saying that if columbo were there it woulda gone down different

@sapphire@shortstacksran.ch Yea I mean he is Chinese. I don’t expect to act nonchinesey

@sapphire@shortstacksran.ch Yea.

And the French guy when xrp is gonna go back up

@hazlin@shortstacksran.ch Are you running these locally?

@hazlin@shortstacksran.ch I’m going to try the walkthrough with Claude when I get home. I’ve already deleted the container and the data set. We’ll see if it works. Goal is to get it running with proper emojis and a working block bot by the end of the week. If that works then I will set up ddns and open registration.

@hazlin@shortstacksran.ch Ask it how to install pleroma on an incus contain in TrueNAS scale but have the db store in a directory in TrueNAS instead of inside the container (it will be mounted in the container but you have to tell it that so it knows to change the storage path)

I’m hitting pleroma install errors that would have taken me a whole weekend to hit in just a couple hours.

@verita84@poster.place @WandererUber@poa.st Great guy @google@jewarethe.chosen . One of the best.

@WandererUber@poa.st My hope is that I remain so small and uninteresting that this little blip goes unnoticed. But yea if the google death machine ever ramps up they know I say the word.

@WandererUber@poa.st Well I did end up closing it because it had gotten into a longer loop of uninstalling and reinstalling erlang and elixir.

@WandererUber@poa.st Also I realized today my browser had me signed in all those times I called it a nigger. So google now knows I say nigger and that I have a pleroma instance. I'm cooked I think.

@WandererUber@poa.st This has been a running problem for me. It required it for ASDF too. It just seems to fail when giving urls for git clone commands

@WandererUber@poa.st Fuck me it just did it. I literally spent like 5 minutes earlier where it failed to provide this and the asdf repository. I do not understand. The second image is closer to what it gave me except the -b stable wasn't there. So git clone https://git.pleroma.social was the closest I got but that did always returned an error. When I manually wrote what was in the first image it ran, but it would not give me that until I pressed it.

@WandererUber@poa.st it will literally just give me GitHub.com over and over. It will even like apologize and say “yea you’re right I didn’t give you the full url” and just give the same thing again. I have to tell it to provide the full url and replace the dots with another character then manually add the dots in and add the url to the git command.

Google failed. Again. I'll try claude tonight when I'm home from the gym.

@teto@cawfee.club I'm miserable nigga. I want emojis and a block bot and maybe a little bit of stability. No matter what I do I can't seem to get these things right.

@Snidely_Whiplash@nicecrew.digital @James_Dixon@poa.st Too many words. Try again.

@Snidely_Whiplash@nicecrew.digital @James_Dixon@poa.st That doesn’t answer my question. Q: Why are they able to leverage themselves so much? A: Because they have assets that are valuable. The point of the post was ignored by jimmy here and I don’t even know what point you’re making tbh because you write like a schizo

@WandererUber@poa.st Yea I had a better response typed out. The taxes thing is one example of the insular nature of the wealthy, but not the entire issue. The contradiction is true, but this has more to do with the issues presented in the OP. If the government wanted to tax them AND prevent wealth flight they could. The Chinese provide an example of this with capital controls.

@James_Dixon@poa.st @Snidely_Whiplash@nicecrew.digital Jesus christ. Why is that person himself collateral? What makes him valuable as collateral? Let's be genuine here.

@WandererUber@poa.st I had to go to my computer to answer this because it's annoying to type so much on my phone. The OP's purpose is to highlight that the nature of the current government is completely misaligned with things the average person cares about. In this case, the average person is upset that wealthy people pay less taxes as a percentage of wealth than they do. I am making a statement that the government could do something about this as at least one method they use to avoid taxation is well known and easily identifiable, but they choose not to because it's not actually a problem they want to solve (even though people care about it). In fact, floating suggestions like an asset tax is just a method to get lower income asset holders nervous about ANY potential changes. That was the scope of the OP. Now we're asking questions about what is good or bad, which falls outside the original scope. I'm gonna try to be as explicit as possible where I can be. The first question is "is it bad that wealthy people aren't paying more taxes?" Yes. I believe it is bad that the wealthy have successfully insulated themselves from the people they are meant rule in the benefit of. "It's better the government also has the money? They're also hostile." Yes. The point of the OP was highlighting that the (hostile) government ignores the issue because the (hostile) wealthy are in league with each other. If the government did actually target the wealthy in ways that really hurt them financially it would imply there was some disruption happening. This is way into hypotheticals now, and I'm not trying to present this as a "hopeful step forward." Just that in the even that chud's law has already been violated (government targeting the elite class) that this would be some kind of an improvement, insomuch that ANY change in the current status quo could be construed as an improvement. "We can't lower our taxes but we can increase there taxes?" The point of the OP was to make the case that the government has the ability to tax this class of people, and opts not to do so. A primary assumption here is that no, the government cannot lower spending therefore lowering lower/middle class people's taxes to be more in line with wealthy people's is not possible. Conversation spiraled around this point because I made an additional point that the wealthy class in both insular and hostile, so making them feel the effects of their hostile behavior could disrupt their insular nature. The point I think you're making here is that if you have the power to do one you have the power to do the other. I don't actually think this is true. From the current status it seems to me that increasing taxes even marginally on the moneyed classes is easier than lowering them. Stuff like this already happens to a degree, which is why people even talk about wealth flight.

@James_Dixon@poa.st I need to take a break this morning. I'm already in one hellthread with someone much more deserving of my time than you.

@WandererUber@poa.st Ok I'm going to do some order of ops here. >I make an OP that operates under some assumptions >nugger quotes making the is/ought distinction (if only it were so easy)) >sbb comes in with some stupid unrelated bullshit so I ask if he's aware of the "problem" the op mentions because (in my estimation) he's missed the forest for the trees >you ask me "why is this even bad" Answer: It isn't if we had a cohesive noble class, but because we don't it would be good to pressure them if we want to take the current tax system seriously. >Again this answer is "ought" under constraints, but we are now shifting goal posts from the OP because we are moving towards reasoning (upstream of the OP). Why? Because we're moving past the "is" of the current conditions. "Why doesn't everyone pay less" because we are slaves that have to support niggers and jewish wars. So we (little people) cannot pay less. It's a silly question, but answered it anyway. >The next post is more less a restatement of your original question. >I answer further upstream of the OP (we are now on a different field) the goal posts have shifted. I don't really know what you want from me here. The conversation is now in a different place. This is my reading of the conversation. I don't know how I'm supposed to take "goalpost shifter" seriously here. I think a lot of issues of hellthreads arise where people talk past each other due to having is/ought problems and this one was a bit weirder because the OP was highlighting an is/ought solution that would a be a minor compromise to the "is" and not something I think is a definitive good which then devolved, but I don't believe I took it there.

@WandererUber@poa.st Obnoxious. Conversing seriously with you is very difficult. I don't believe I ever shifted goalposts. You asked a question, and I highlighted my reasoning at every step.

@WandererUber@poa.st The goalposts were highlighted in the previous post where I explained the hypothetical constraints the op was operating under. I don't think I moved them. You moved the conversation beyond. There's no reasonable answer at that point that wouldn't be "on a different goal"

@WandererUber@poa.st Because taxes aren't the only thing I don't want. I don't want to be ruled over by people who aren't like me. I want powerful people who are like me to exercise that power over those who have done things to make the place I grew up worse.

@sickburnbro@poa.st I don't want to be rude to you, but are you aware of the fact that wealthy people utilize significant amounts of leverage to avoid paying taxes? I'm not trying to insult you, I just want to keep the thread on track with the OP. Do you understand that that is a thing that happens and it doesn't just happen a little it happens a lot?
