It’s winter here, and I wear two or three layers with a sweater on top, because I am saving electricity.

We’ll have ourselves our first trillionaire, and silly me hates all the people with 500mil+ net worth, and their bootlickers.

Doesn’t triangulation depend on an antenna that broadcasts 360°?

If the signal is silent in most of the space most of the time, it won’t be easy to find.

Let’s say it transmits a directed 5° beam to 278° for 1 sec, then random seconds later to 96° for a sec, then after a random interval a beam to 28°, that won’t be fun to look for. Then after an hour of this it rests for 5 (also randomized) hours, while a different transmitter elsewhere takes over.

Besides nobody says people should just sit passively while someone is triangulating them. We have been damn obedient all this time because we believed in the system. What if that belief goes away? Is everyone going to just volunteer obedience? Even if only a few break the norms, while the majority supports those resisters, at some point it will be too costly for the olygarchs to keep raping their way to trillions damned be the bottom 99.9%. The fucks have been ruling us on the back of a buy in from us. Only.

Not if Elmo owns all the sattelites, then it won’t be the Internet.

Yes, yes, yes.

And drastically reform or reimagine all the IP laws.

Copyright: 5 years, one optional 5 year extension.

Patents: 5 years, no extensions. No business methods, no algorithms, no gene expressions.

Owned only by the individual humans and groups of humans. Cannot be owned by trusts, funds, corporations, estates. Cannot outlive the last human owner in a group.

All licensing is non-exclusive only! All licensing is irreversible (once you license out the patent non-exclusively, no way to halt midway through the licensing term).

That way pattents cannot be hoarded by the patent troll entities. Since all exclusive agreements are forbidden, no way to corner the market! Inventors are free to license their inventions all over and cannot be strong armed into an exclusive deal.

In other words, ownerships, paywalls, and corporate control must be severely curtailed.

I can get used to the billionaires begging me.

Patent trolls.

Here’s one of the best traders talking about the same issue:

It’s eloquent and funny at the same time.

I included a timestamp to jump (almost) directly to the most relevant bit (also 33m, but 31m sets up a better context for an extra 2min of time compared to going directly to the 33m mark). But the whole video is worth watching.

Yes, Krugman is a hack.
