… in the post-late-stage-capitalism you won’t have a choice, death is not an excuse to stop working, now get back to the mines, data fields, and “AI simulators”!

Maybe even wiggle my hard drive writing heads for that sweet sound.
And ofc, as a god-given/demanded right, run Doom.
I find it very addictive actually, at least the endless scrolling lasts a bit longer than in Reddit, tho there is still more top stuff on Reddit (bcs there is more content that gets distilled into good content, whereas I feel like on average I see better content on Lemmy).
Tho if I need some technical review of some obscure product, Reddit is still where I look it up.
I assumed this since before the president stuff. It’s definitely a mob family, from Frederick and Fred to Don Aldi (… bcs mob family + German :) … I’ll see myself out).
You just can’t threaten, evict, and buy political figures at that scale without a platoon of various type of henchmen, including public servants acting as such (police, state prosecutors, etc).
Neither can you recognize other ppl as vaguely equal humans, much less freely do something to their benefit.
Sure, but when the risks the capital takes are so low & long-term as in showbusiness (everything got consolidated af), and the payouts so huge compared to cost (especially excluding like top 5 most payed ppl on the project) … you might think that the negotiations weren’t made fairly on equal grounds.
Otherwise, if there were meaningful risks, the corps would have no problem sharing (=lowering) that risk at least with immediate stakeholders/workers. I bet most writers would take minimal or no pay to get in on the profits (that can last decades). Most writers work on several projects a year so so if business risks would be actually important, lowering them via lower initial costs for shared uncertain future profits would be a win-win scenario.
Bcs taking someone’s work & capitalize on it just because the original worker didn’t have the means to do so … some people might see as immoral in a lot of cases.
One of the cornerstones of capitalism tho.
Also note the huge difference scales, bcs it matters a lot: if you sell a peace of tech, or business, or property at fair price (like dcf or whatever), then you already got compensated justly or as close to that as possible with the information available at the time. But if you were forced to sell at an arbitrary fixed rate bcs the buyer forced you into it from their position of power over you (and made a huge profit in a short amount of time from that) … you might feel different about the situation.
Like, even your, if you would be able to get secondly payouts, would you not collect them?
Also, if the negotiations & payout would be fair, the strike would not make financial sense for any party, or have an effect on the business.
Looking forward to it as well, yet I think that if not for the title & locations, I wouldn’t recognize it. Need to see some gameplay. And flower gathering.
It’s all fun and games until your wish comes true though sheer regional air temperature … that’s not something I wanted to witness before my surprise cremation
Yeah, this is like the start of the second act, none of this is surprising or not as discussed before … but at least the overwhelmingly sad second act will be fairly short - the last act however, with no fat lady to sing, will be a long and painful few hundred million years.
Soon we will be telling next gen peeps (mutant descendants) how ‘back in our day’ we could walk outside, not pay a daily air allowance to the regional megacorp, and even see animals and plants irl.
But at least Soylent Green will be available in several flavors so that is something to look forward to …
At least some select few got briefly rich by capitalizing on destruction of all the things … I was told that was always the goal, the very best of mankind, the one true god.
Born too early to not give a fuck, born too late to have (or want) a decent life expectancy, but born just in time to witness the global biodiversity collapse at the start of a super fast mass extinction event.

Lol, mooD, the secret cow level of Doom :D
