  • Are you from the Us? It’s usually us people that speak about worldwide while talking about their country lol

    Here in Italy WhatsApp reigns; also in most of Europe

    Then there are WeChat, kakaotalk, telegram… Every of them has some country in which they rule

    The blue bubble iPhone thing fixed by RCS is basically only us America from what I know













  • Yes I couldn’t get past 2 minutes

    He keeps blaming the cultural differences but then points out infrastructure, political and education differences

    He is kinda forcing his “culture” point over the fact that he too knows that no product is a magical tech product that will improve any country

    It’s not “western” design, it’s that technosolutionism kinda never work lol




  • You’ll have an easier time unionizing programmers

    Ye I’ve been since the start until some months ago in the Italian chapter of tech workers coalition because of this :P

    I wish I had an idea to start fixing this

    I do have ideas but the thing is that almost no one can fully save other people. Like the unionizing thing: we tried to unionize from outside but just doesn’t work if people inside don’t hammer everyday. We can think about cooperative models but even if we start a coop people will have to jump in your ship they can’t just keep the comfort of the status quo

    It’s hard but my protip is that everyone should first acknowledge every kind of own power in their own life. Then think how to use it. For example I don’t have much but I happen to have some rural land. I’ll probably make a community space out of it but first I need to ensure myself some other basic survival power lol (basically, I want to go back to studying to then have a useful job for the society I envision)

    the first rule of the server is to be constructive, you may want to keep that in mind when posting

    control of ai by capital is bad, we all know that on this server; what are the next steps then? this is what solarpunks should ask themselves (first of all they -artists- prob need to unionize their workplace, for those not freelance, to ensure their jobs)

    also those artists who used ai without telling you just want to get by their lives and are costrained by the system as you and as me
