Bad relationship with their parents in their childhood taught them to be afraid of being in a close relationship. This is both extremely messed up and tragic.

Gotta love Finnish philosophy!

I appreciate you taking time to reply!

Ethics shouldn’t be used in this context in the first place, because ethics is about defining what’s good and what’s bad for you and not about trying to apprehend the manifoldness of things

It is clearly defined, but deciding what fits that definition and what doesn’t is not at all objective, it totally depends on which side you’re on. And since accusing somebody of something implies you’re yourself innocent, accusing of genocide is saying “they bad we good”, thus dehumanizing “them” as irrational “bad” and rejecting the attempt to understand the conflict in its entirety and in its controversial nature.

Oh yeah, I can relate, a lot of confusion when you’re just starting. I sweared so much during my first month of using NixOS… But I’m glad to hear you like it!

I literally know a woman whose parents hated each other, but chose to stay “for her”. Guess what, she’s still single in her 50s, because her notion of love and closeness is just so completely messed up…

Also her father died of alcoholism.

Congrats! What’s your first impression? Btw, if NixOS seems too overwhelming at the beginning, you can try using nix (the packat manager) + home-manager on another distro at first - that’s what I did

Can’t disagree, but I love it!

Italy! I like that they have kept their culture and their mentality which is so rich, diverse, profound and just overall positive. Italians are also so open and friendly!

Why are you using the thorn? Gotta admit though, it looks pretty dope and convenient

Do you use your google acccount? If so, try without it You can use newpipe or invidious btw

For all companies and corpos to switch to Linux, it needs to become a new Windows, because the core difference between proprietary and free software, in my opinion, is not the way it is distributed but the way it is developped and used. It is “we’ll do everything for you in a centralised manner and you’ll just passively consume it” vs. “everyone is a creator, creating new stuff on their own in a decentralised manner out of the will for self-actualisation” philosophy. So I think truely free software isn’t compatible with centralised and uncreative type of production which most companies are. Basically DIY vs. commercial support.

It is getting worse. Humanity is entering a deeper and deeper crisis. Alienation is growing with each passing year. The inner contradiction in every one of us is getting more intense, which manifests itself in more external conflicts: between people, between people and nature, between everything.

That being sad, this crisis just highlights the slow death of the previous, deeply troubled era and marks the transition to another way of living. The destructive aspect of things, that we all suffer from, is therefore not absolute. It is not going to destroy neither us nor the world around us. It is balanced off by the progress that we’re making.

Take 3d printing, for example. If you think of it, it is actually the (very) beginning of something fundamentally new: local automated production. Automation eliminates the routine part of producing goods, which makes the process creative again, while not compromising on efficiency. This leads to production becoming a means of self-actualisation rather than something that takes away all your freedom. And since the process of making new things gives you value instead of taking it, the need for charging others for using your creations vanishes, giving way to free exchange and collaboration. This, if applied globally, would solve the fundamental issue of our current society, where creating good takes away just as much, making any growth a form of self-destruction. And solving that would spare us of all different kinds of problems, ranging from pollution, wars to emotional abuse.

So I think by getting worse it’s also getting better and these difficult times we’ve happened to live in are still marvelous.

P.S. Apart from 3d printing, there’s, of course, free software movement as well, which in my opinion is also part of the global free production evolution

The will to understand other people and to grow as a person yourself.

For me everything after childhood seems to be the best part of life, because after you grow up you finally can make your life the way you want and if you have enough strength you can make it absolutely wonderful.

Childhood can be cool too but only if you happen to be born to a good family.
