Build a fucking electric high speed train from Windsor through Toronto to Montreal. Obviously. Until this happens, Canada is simply not taking climate change seriously.

The CCP has the right idea this time. Do not negotiate with economic arsonists.

Oil tanker sabotage crew were poised to cut more cables when caught, Finland says by etuomaala in c/world@lemmy.world
[-] etuomaala@sopuli.xyz 39 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

The head of the investigation, Risto Lohi of the National Bureau of Investigation, told Reuters the vessel was threatening to cut a second power cable, Estlink1, and the BalticConnector gas pipe between Finland and Estonia at the time it was seized.

"Lohi" is Finnish for "salmon". That's right. Inspector Salmon is in charge of this investigation. Thankyou, Finland.

Nintendo makes it as hard as possible to use their computers generically.

Brave, but not stupid. It was self-martyrdom—self-immolation. The only thing Навальный did not expect was just how long it would take Путин to crucify him. Now, at last, Путин's fate is sealed, and by his own hand. Just like Israel, if the IDF pushes half of Gaza into Egypt.

I hate how everything requires you to download a shitty proprietary data harvesting app nowadays when everything can be done just fine without an app. by etuomaala in c/technology@lemmy.world

Large parts of the City of Toronto bike share—public infrastructure—requires such an app. Taxpayers without an iphone or android computer can't access the services they already paid for.

Capitalism by etuomaala in c/comicstrips@lemmy.world
[-] etuomaala@sopuli.xyz 47 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

consumerism != capitalism

Capitalism is the allowing of control over companies to be bought and sold without the consent of their workers.

Consumerism is using cheap marketing tactics to sell cheap garbage to people who don't know any better, and is mostly the result of not requiring companies to pay for the waste they create.

Either of these could easily exist without the other.

Stop defining everything you don't like about the economy as capitalism.
