I read a similar article a few weeks ago, and I think your concise summary is better than the article linked in this post.

I think Yanis goes a bit overboard with stating that capitalism kinda no longer exists, since it really is about a new group of rich people simply inserting their companies as evil middlemen who leach money off the whole system.

I'm not sure the solution has to be revolutionary or super complex. I'd think that large countries and groups of countries (e.g. USA, the EU) could implement their own mega marketplaces, leaching off much less money and avoiding the sort of corrupt BS that Amazon etc do to keep prices artificially high, and these governments could also stop allowing the mega platforms to do business in their region. Big countries want to facilitate an economy, and if private industry is proving to be too broken with their current approach, governments could step in to create more functional marketplaces that still work nicely in the internet age and don't have horrible middlemen crap dragging everything down.

Everquest II was released in 2004. It is pretty crazy that they are still releasing expansions for it. And it's kinda crazy that I played it for at least a hundred hours earlier this year during a nostalgia binge.

This seems like a really good idea, and I love that the article actually acknowledges that there are other countries in world which sometimes have good examples of how to do various things. Virtually every neighborhood should have reasonably quick/nearby access to a decent grocery store.

This has kinda been a thing since the invention of money and real estate

An updated version of 'junk yard owner', possibly refurbishing or otherwise breathing new life into objects that would normally be trashed, and selling them to new owners.

Your jewelry design magazine is what I would hope for and expect from people who create mags. You have a logo, and have personally seeded it with over half a dozen posts. It's a bit niche, so I'm not surprised that you don't have many subscribers yet, but you seem to have done your part to establish it. Thanks.

I subbed to your mag Urban Details. Seems right up my alley, and I notice that a couple of folks have also been posting there. That seems promising.

That seems totally fine. Great :)

Good for them! I wish them luck, now that they managed to escape their evil empire and set out on a more positive path.

Honestly, I'm fine with the normies staying on Reddit and Twitter, while all of us 'new cool' folks explore our rebel alliance.

But Ms von der Leyen’s own political group, the Christian Democrat EPP, turned sour on it and now vehemently opposes it, claiming it will affect food security and undermine the income of farmers and disgruntle a European population focused more on jobs and their wallets.

People who just care about their monthly income are not interested in the future of humanity. Of course, that's a simplification because various farmers, land-owners, companies and industries, and old right-wing people all have their own problems with it, which generally involves: My Money vs the Future of Humanity
