Capitalism must feed. And, if we don’t give them huge electronics landfills to search for scrap, what are our children and grandchildren going to do for work?
ghost riding the apocalypse cuz there’s no way off this ride

but like, wasn’t facebook written in php and didn’t it kind of take over, about as much as any programming whatzit ever has? (not saying that was a good thing, but yeah…)

FreeCAD isn’t the worst and has the ability to output several file formats. But it’s definitely wonky and probably not up to the task if that’s like your actual job or whatever. I don’t know your scenario, but you might check it out if you’re still using CAD. It is free.
But yeah, in general, required software is the big hiccup.
Step in front of the train: Tell your manager this whole project is dumb, provide a list of reasons why it’s a bad idea and explain you are prepared to resign rather than enable its further development.
The people who would fall for it… who also can figure out how to get and transfer bitcoin and could do so without someone telling them to not do this shit… seems like a subset of a subset of a subset. Kinda hard to believe anyone falls into that vanishingly small category
test comment. please ignore.
everyone thinks that.
they also think it’s stupid to show up to a place where they do nothing like half the time with other people they don’t really like just so they can have a place to sleep and food to eat. sometimes they even think it was stupid they were ever born. (just me?) there’s so much dumb shit we’re forced to live with.
bank accounts? dumb. bus fares? fucking stupid. cultural attitudes towards nudity and sex? moronic. cultural attitudes towards portrayals of violence? so much worse. general attitudes about mental health? actively unhelpful. sports tv? non-sports tv? birthdays? birthday cards? the US fucking tax system, where you have to pay on time and get it right or go to jail but they can’t just send you a bill? wtf is that even about…
There’s so much stupid shit we’re forced to live with that you need a 6 month vacation to figure out what maybe means something to you as an individual, but you’re gonna have to forget that shit to functionally live in society so why fucking bother…
but yeah, internet privacy. idk, just set up a gang of accounts with your password managers. don’t cross reference anything via email. no social media. end up with no friends, and generally a recluse. then you won’t get specific ads that try to undermine your freedom… I do all those things, but sometimes I wonder why even bother.
Sometimes it feels like the real loss of freedom is what’s required to pursue the idea of privacy. And for that, I don’t know there’s a remedy.
You think that now… Wait 'til I bargain a hard drive.
