It would be more efficient if we shrunk the power of the wealthiest individuals and made everyone fall under a wealthy limit
Why should one person own and control so much wealth when they will never realistically be able to enjoy all of that wealth during their lifetime? Especially if that one person hoarding all that wealth they’ll never use is producing, creating and maintaining so much pollution for one individual.
Don’t exist until they’re gone … I’m a middle child in a family of eight … mom kept an eye on the baby and the oldest … as long as there was six in the middle, no one really cared who they were until that number of middle children decreased.
Does this mean that in ten years we’re going to have a pandemic again?
I remember reading once that eating insects would be more efficient than eating beef or meat from larger animals. We can harvest from large animals about 60 to 70 percent of their mass as protein … if we did the same for insects, over 90 percent of their mass would be protein.
One important key lesson that everyone misses is funding … we have to normalize paying a bit of money through donations or subscriptions to those people that maintain instances and those people who maintain, update and build the software … if we all just keep tell ourselves that we all just keep our heads down, lock the door and don’t bother to pay anyone to keep the door locked … the same problems of the past will always emerge … Owners, developers, programmers, instance maintainers just running out of money and enthusiasm because they have the shoulder the financial costs while everyone ignores them and takes everything for granted.
If we all just keep expecting volunteers to keep everything running for us for free … eventually we will run out of willing volunteers as the community grows and the costs add up over time as instances grow more popular
SUPPORT YOUR INSTANCE … whatever platform it is and whatever amount of money you can give … even if it means we just give a dollar a day, across hundreds or thousands of user, it will protect your instance owner, and ensure that the people running your instance never run into a situation where they have to decide on either ending their work … or selling everything they have to make a bit of money back.
The bible … or the cartoon? either way, the answer is the same anyway … they’re both made up.
