The second half of this article is specifically about the FX-8350 and Hogwarts Legacy performance in case you’re interested

Every time someone says experienced users should use a more difficult to use distribution I die a little inside - I happily use Mint, have done for years, why make my life more difficult?
I use Firefox on desktop and Mull (fork) on Android. I have zero problems with Firefox. I don’t really use YT and don’t mind going to the website when I do so can’t comment on embedded videos
I have used the Voyager PWA and it will hang after being in the background so you have to reopen, but not sure if this is a Firefox issue
Only using basic extensions like UBlock Origin on Android, lots of extensions on desktop (and literally hundreds of tabs open)

Ethical phishing: Email Twitter users, steal their credentials, close their accounts

Cool cool, definitely not criticising, and a great article to post
I think the weakness of the article was mentioning that the email passed the Security Policy Framework (i.e. appeared to legitimately be from x.com) without discussing why this is possible and who is responsible for it not happening
They even say in bold that ‘the primary responsibility less with the end user’, but in this case even careful users could easily be caught
This is a great short analysis, but I think the generic recommendations are a bit strange when tacked onto it
Firstly, who knows what to expect from the Twitter X changeover. If I had a blue subscription I wouldn’t not (!) expect to get an email about migrating considering the chaos so far
Then the email is verified as coming from Twitter, and sends you to the genuine Twitter API. No amount of 2FA or antivirus is going to save you here
It sounds like we both value the intangibles, but are still slightly disagreeing on what they mean in this discussion. Having said that, it’s your discussion, your question, and I’m just trying to answer in a way that adds value
I don’t mind how you’ve picked apart my examples, but you have to acknowledge it’s still primarily through economic analysis. Output, competition, and cost benefit analysis all imply an economic lense
The discussion is getting pretty long, so I’ll keep myself to these 5 points:
I don’t think everyone should grow their own produce. It comes across as a straw man (because I never said we should decentralise) and we always have to be careful not to say that what is good for one is good for all (see Idle Kantianism)
Non-economic benefits are devalued through economic analysis. My mental health is improved, it’s physical exercise, the nutrient value is likely higher, it contributes to a local ecosystem etc. I agree that none of these has much economic value
In the same way that economies of scale have efficiency value, specialisation and expertise in scientific and policy fields has efficiency value. Transitioning to research and policy simply because you have amassed capital will likely generate diminishing returns (even if you remain close to your industry/experience)
Government can and should allocate resources to important issues. If we require more resources for these goals we can raise taxes, keeping more people working for longer, and achieving some measure of additional economic contribution per person
A competitive society implies some other society against which we compete. Humanity has enough resources to raise the living standards of all. Why do we need to keep maximising productivity within separate societies if the problem is distributive?
You’re begging the question, and I mean that in a literal way, it’s not an insult. You have assumed a definition of output as something that happens through participation in capitalistic endeavours
This effectively devalues any other form of output. What of the value to society of a grandparent spending more time with their grandchild. What is the value to the grandparent? The child? The parent who can now work extra hours?
There is enormous value to society in spending time with family, growing your own produce, exercising your body and mind etc. but many people sacrifice their ability to do those things for income during part of their lives, and change focus when the means are available
Retirement does not mean you cease to contribute to society. It may allow you to develop new hobbies and passions, build or enhance relationships with family and friends, or give time to your community
Downtime may allow you to think deeply on what kind of world you want to live in, or travel may broaden your horizons and make you aware of issues you would like to address - you could become politically active, or contribute your efforts to a charity
You don’t have to do any of these things, but don’t write off retirement as an empty non-productive life stage. If it doesn’t bring you joy, you can always go back to work ;)
But they said it was safe…
Coast is working enough that you don’t have to touch your investments (whether working full or part time, so you can be semi-retired)
Barista is working full or part time in something that doesn’t pay enough to cover your day to day expenses, but it’s ok because you have enough capital to draw on your investments without compromising your retirement goals
You missed Coast/Barista in your hierarchy
Financial position | Not retired | Semi-retired | Retired |
---|---|---|---|
Pre FIRE | x | - | - |
Coast | x | x | - |
Barista | x | x | - |
FI | x | x | x |
The difference between Coast and Barista is whether your non-investment income fully covers expenses. To Barista FIRE you must have a bit more invested to support some level of draw-down
Your comment implied that people would choose an instance based on popularity. I was pointing out that popularity does not correlate with content and community if you are on another fully federated instance.
We have also seen the weaknesses of being on a large instance recently, where lemmy.world issues affected a significant number of users
Do you mean users that don’t understand federation will think they need to be on lemmy.world? My account is not on lemmy.world and I don’t miss out on anything from other instances
Why would the wiki page have to be decentralised? Each community lives in one instance, the wiki page could similarly be attached to the instance, but with federated users
