good

Thanks! Nice to reminisce.

“ I’m as big a critics of our modern capital-industrial system as the next person”

Evidently

Haha, what’s this from again?

Cool! I‘d also see it as a compliment. That‘s why I was surprised that a fellow luddite would interpret it differently. Alas, it was just this little word that made us stumble. But yeah, the Luddites knew that machines weren‘t evil. But that they would be used to generate more profit and not to lessen their toil

As someone else mentioned, use this shortcut that uses ashell and yt-dlp. It‘s pretty neat: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/7284/

yeah, let‘s get rid of this antiquated shit. I‘ll cut my legs off and copter out of this ridiculous set

ah, now I get it. You meant ostensible goal

Edit: I also had to look it up )

as a luddite you should know that automation‘s goal never was to save us from unwanted labour. But of course this would have to be accomplished first, before your second assumption can ever come true.

much needed? Nuclear Power for AI?

„related to background processes and specific apps“ I notice that a lot on my iPad, too. With Safari for example

fair enough

maybe you didn‘t consider all implications of this statement. To make more clear what I meant: maybe regulating capitalism never was the answer, maybe it is time to get rid of the whole shit show.

maybe regulating has never been the answer
