But how would you define the point at which our material needs are met? It feels like it's an intrinsic desire for humans to gain an advantage over other people. Or at least we want the illusion of being able to gain an advantage through either hard work or gaming the system. For me it seems like capitalism lies in our nature and it requires a complete change of our societal values to move to a different system. Not saying that I think capitalism is a good thing.

Why would you not be able to bypass news paywalls? As long as one user pays for the service they can then crawl the site and host the content on a separate site.
It even says "Junk removal" on the business card!
Or until they implement a trust model that denies access to uncertified user-agents?
XL is such a counter-intuitive suffix for a compression format.
They don't even allow me to delete my account. They suspended me (never posted anything) and now I'd need to beg to be unbanned, just to get off Mr. Elons wild ride. I'm in the EU so I'm thinking about making use of my right to be forgotten.
I blocked every meme community I've seen so far. But I must admit the one you posted together with the specific description of your meme-taste was kinda cute. I might subscribe to your curated meme-collection.
Every web frontend is source-available. You can do some obfuscation sure, but it's always possible to just grab the computed style properties when the document finished rendering.
Looking great! Which font and icons do you use?
I really like the simplicity of this workflow by StreakyCobra on HN (explained as a blog post here):
I use:
git init --bare $HOME/.myconf
alias config='/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$HOME/.myconf/ --work-tree=$HOME'
config config status.showUntrackedFiles no
where my ~/.myconf directory is a git bare repository. Then any file within the home folder can be versioned with normal commands like:
config status
config add .vimrc
config commit -m "Add vimrc"
config add .config/redshift.conf
config commit -m "Add redshift config"
config push
And so one…
No extra tooling, no symlinks, files are tracked on a version control system, you can use different branches for different computers, you can replicate you configuration easily on new installation.
Buy me an oil rig and open a hacker space there. Pretty obvious choice no?
But maybe you could explain the secret of your username? Is it unicode for the chinese word "乏" which means poor/tired? Is it some magic number or boot signature? I need to know!!
