    Now it’s up to you to take a shot at creating the next exciting thing. Aim high and give all you can to succeed.

    morshupls

    Choose and make the winners. Exciting stuff on the internet is not exclusive. On lemmy, everybody wins.

    morshupls

    Making money is not a goal on lemmy, so why should there be more rewards than entertainment?

    morshupls

    If you want to make money, you have to look elsewhere. Crypto was an idea, but as we know, not sustainable.

    If you don’t find something, build it.

    marx-hi Neat idea!

    Think like Bill Gates

      BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE! hitler-detector

      A homeless person is without the mental structure to build something lasting, or else they would not be homeless or would identify differently, e.g. as a traveler.

      Bill Gates also breathes. Unlike other companies he tolerated piracy to establish the windows platform.

      If you don’t see a platform where you can make money on the internet with acceptable terms then that platform is missing. Try to build it and you should get your reward.

    BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE!

    You are projecting. You asked about profits and you introduced homeless people as the ones who cannot handle this debate.

    Now you are derailing with more insults.

    Let’s stay on topic. You want profits and I suggested that you should try to build a platform to make money.

    Can you handle that thought?

    (I never fucking asked about profits to begin with and this piece of shit derailed the thread topic to begin with by babbling about how hustlegrinding and innovating will generate infinite growth plus profit. Grofit!)

    The homeless people can’t handle the debate! They need to go to the hustlegrind startup (boot)camp! scared-fash

    You will have to bootstrap it.

    People value things. In capitalism, the ones who value them the most, and who are able to pay, get them.

    If you disrupt this mechanism by allocating resources differently, you risk that resources are wasted. Of course you can use other allocations but is that a good idea?

    Capitalism has many flaws, e. g. monopolies disrupt this mechanism, but it just has to be better than its competitors to survive.

    You imagine taking over capitalism and allocating luxeries differently. I doubt that those luxeries will exist. If workers only want to work e.g. 8 hours per week, because socialism, the surplus will be gone.

    If you can make those workers work more under socialism without a gun to their head, then you should be able to do so right now within the legal framework of a coop.

    It should be easier because you only have to manage production processes without fighting a war.

    Sidequestion: how does a member of the bourgeoisie without capital look like?

    Cake is a present where everybody gets a slice because the cake was selected accordingly.

    If only one person can get promoted, or an increased budget for wages is available, could that be resolved without managers, not just in theory but all over the world?

    Yes, let’s also outsource the revolution.

    Will China take over America? If not, why would China change the economic system in the West? Without the petrodollar, there should just be significantly less resources available.

    Money is not fake in international trade. Resources can be delivered to other countries.

    And yet China managed to survive. Of course there are external factors but it’s important to know which internal decisions could have led to success.

    Processors, internet, renewable energy, etc. Maybe winning the space race prevented success in other areas?

    About that money on the table, that’s for building a platform. A vaccine is no platform. That’s why he (Bill Gates) took it.

    It shows how calculating he is. It also shows how few compassion is needed to build a platform.

    To add another hustle platitude: imagine what a person with compassion could build.

    Imagine indeed. ussr-cry

      The idea that Bill Gates left money on the table for others with Microsoft isn’t just wrong, it’s so exactly the opposite of reality that it boggles the mind. Did he leave money on the table for other DOSes with windows 95? For other office suites with MSOffice? For Netscape with bundled IE?

      I’m boggled over here.

        The same bootlicker also claimed that the same lord and savior billionaire making sure covid vaccines remained profitably unavailable was not a contradiction of that same “sharing profit” virtue, because… well no explanation was given, just that it wasn’t a contradiction. morshupls

        I didn’t excuse the vaccine lobbying. You are stuck in your first judgment. If you want to nag me then it works because BG is no hero of mine.

        You are right about me caring about profits though. Logistics is everything. How do you want to create something without a positive resource balance?

        Still wondering, what’s the entire point of OP’s text? I guess you focus on the evil domination of evil corporations. How do you want to resolve it if not with small initiatives?

        This fucking galaxy brain.

    THERE’S EVEN MORE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

    Rereading the text, I see something else. He complains about negativity and corporations stifling small initiatives. Look what you are spreading about my comment that reaffirms small initiatives.

    I hope that you can laugh about yourself, because I do, slightly.

    Can’t you stop being stuck at me mentioning Bill Gates? You made it clear that you don’t care about profits but about abuse. Let’s figure out something exciting.
