I mean, one of the central goals of communism to abolish ownership of the means of production.

Software used to produce something of value is a resource that in a communist society should not be owned. The only way to achieve this is to let everything be opensource.

So communists clearly like the free software movement, whether inverse is true is a matter for debate.

Ah I don't think the smell is going to be an issue, I'll just place them on my balkony. I think I'll give it a try, thanks for helping me fart less :P

This once again shows how stupid the idea of copyright is.

The mentioned library genesis project is such a great idea and i use it extensively. It makes scientific articles, papers and cultural works available for everyone, regardless of income.

I understand where these writers are coming from but in my opinion they are working against their own interests here.

I mean currently most of the profits go to the big media coorperations anyway, are we sure ther isn't a way to fairly pay the artists AND make their works publicly available at the same time?

Oh, this is super usefull info, thanks. I am no native speaker, is brine just salty water, or is there something else like vinegar required?

With air lock you mean like a mason jars?

Yes, but they chose that route rather than for example expand their admin-team.

They would rather remain a small tight knit community than expand for fear of loosing their core values.

I'm disagree with their aproach but understand their reasoning. In the context of a instance war however I think they'd avoid conflict and thus remain impartial.

Oh I misspelled it. Petarades is a fancy word for farts. Read that somewhere and sounded kinda funny, as comes from pétarade (backfire) in french. English is not my first language so I though it would be more common than it actually is.

True, together with lentils they are my goto protein source. If only they wouldn't cause petarades... Or maybe I'm just cooking them wrong :D

Someone posted a can of beans in lemmy.world's shitpost community and said lemmy users will upvote anything. It got a couple thousand likes and rose to the top of the feed. I found it mildly funny at the time, but the way it is still beeing regurgitated reminds me to much of reddit.

Well, there are the fascists(exploding-heads.com) and the communists(lemmygrad.ml) for a start.

You have some national instances such as lemmy.ca, aussie.zone, feddit.de, feddit.nl, feddit.uk and feddit.it.

Beehaw is busy building their ivory tower by defederating anyone with a slightly different oppinion so i'd say they are the centrists or maybe the swiss.

Other than that the rest is pretty much the same, if you ask me.

No wine is a dependency, it's installed automatically. Yes, they don't include any game files. They would probably get in trouble with copyright if they did. The setup was something like this, iirc: 1.Install POL 2.Insert the disk and mount it/Download your game from your seller(eg. GOG.com) 3. Search for the game in the POL UI 4. Start the installer and select the installation exe

Yes kind of. Both use wine. Basically wine is not like a vm where you simulate the whole windows os but rather the libraries your program needs to run translated to linux.

For playonlinux here is a list: https://www.playonlinux.com/en/supported_apps-1-0.html

If you're new to linux and want to stay safe I have a couple of tips:

Never run commands you don't understand. Research what they are doing before you run them. Try to become used to doing everything from the commandline. It may be daunting at first, but it helps understanding what the GUIs do and hiw to fix things if they break.

Use the packagemanagement of your distribution where possible. For example in ubuntu use the "apt" command to install software from the commandline or the software center to install them from the GUI. I'd avoid .deb files from random internet sites as installing them is the equivalent of installing random .exe-s on Windows. It could be safe but you don't really know for sure. tar.gz-files are the compressed source code of the application so while technically more transparent as a newbie i'd still avoid them.

Choose a widely used distro. Especially as a newbie it can be difficult do assess what's wrong. It helps if there are a lot of other new users googling the same problem.

To start I'd suggest Ubuntu on a Virtualbox-VM. Make frequent snapshots so you don't have to reinstall your whole system if you break something.

For most older windows only offline games someone usually has already created a bottle or made an installer on playonlinux. With online games anticheat might act up (I tried valorant and LoL, both didn't work)
