@Senator_Armstrong @gav @Humpleupagus @kvit
To Schopenhauer Will is panentheist, i.e. a force of life pervading all of consciousness. There is one dream but many dreamers who also dream, etc.
Nietzsche sees identity as fate. You are -- as a slice of the Will -- destined to be a specific thing, so live fully into it.
What neither countenanced was individualism, or "me first before all else." Both were essentially traditionalists from the Plato model. -

Yes, but there are Indo-European languages higher up on the tree as well. -

Perhaps. I trust Tom Wolfe would have had something insightful to say here.
It seems to me that "retard-proof" is a synonym for "designed for retards."
However, I like a few things about Apple... the works-out-of-the-box, the aesthetics, the idea of joy in using devices.
Even if I hate Apple and know that Steve Jobs, like Chuck Schuldiner, actually died of AIDS. -

Old brands tend to move from being elite to being commonplace over time.
That ruins their utility as signaling.
As much as I hate Apple (left the cult in '87) part of it also has to deal with iPhones being easy to use. -

Maybe that is part of it, but we are also seeing a shift where many luxury brands are getting identified with the 'hood.
For example, people switched to Tesla from Mercedes as their ideal of a luxury car. -

Depends on whether they could do the job well.
I am sort of old school California agnostic on a lot of things. If they are the right person to do the job well, almost everything else is not as important. -

Discrimination goes both ways. Would you want to date/court someone who demanded you had an iPhone or Rolex? -

So there is some ideological attraction for the deranged?
BSD seems to be a labor of love based in commercial code. -

OK, so you remember the primary trope of the book, which is the mockingbird, which is something that just gives without expecting anything in return.
Well... what the heck else is FreeSpeechExtremist? Man makes plan to improve world through relaxing fears about ideas.

The fediverse, like the old BBS network, runs on mockingbirds.
Look at all the people making information available, running servers, doing crazy movie nights, making memes, even just posting content everyday to make people think.
These mockingbirds are trying against the odds to save this species from itself, even in their small corner. -

Far out. So you think they should be dropped for insufficient support of free speech?
I am all ears.
