  • You don’t share food if you’re starving. You don’t share time if you work 12 hour days, every day.

    If you spend all your energy on survival, you got no energy to spare on anyone else. I bet our hypothetical starving person would be moral and share, if they had the chance and materials.

    If they don’t… then it’s not a matter of won’t it’s can’t. People are more likely to share food they have excess of, time they have excess of. If they can’t spare it, they won’t.




  • I’m not. What do you get as a reward for blowing the whistle? Genuinely?

    1. There’s no bounty, even if there was you wouldn’t get it for at least a year after you blow the whistle.

    2. Once it’s discovered it’s you, you’re fired. There goes your paycheck, your health insurance. Now your home is in jeopardy and you have no decent income verification to get a new one.

    3. Good luck working in any job even remotely related to what you know. You now have a stigma in any background check and while a privately owned mom & pop might look at you favorably, there ain’t a single corporation who will take pride in hiring you. You’re risky.

    The most ethical person, is one with no debt, who owns their home, and has 8 months expenses saved up. That’s not most Americans right now.

    Honestly steamdeck plus tpm module requirement for windows 11 is making me give a serious attempt to Linux for the new year. I do a very good job of taking care of my tech, it lasts decades.

    I find it infuriating I have to change due to arbitrary OS decisions. I could’ve held onto my original pixel for quite some time, but it was no longer getting the security updates.

    I feel like with the hardware requirements linux might see another bump come October
