Guys. This problem is solved already. Landlock, bubblewrap, UNIX DAC.
You better believe I was degaussing as many CRTs as I could.
How does this account for data caps vs unlimited plans?
Uhhhh... NSFW?
I think I actually misinterpreted your original comment because of the typo in this sentence:
If billionaires were no longer allowed, and the money was re distributed amount people with 9 figure net worth already, it doesn’t solve anything.
(I now realize you probably meant to write "among".)
I didn't realize you were saying, "it doesn't help if you redistribute wealth to the wrong people". And that sort of set the tone incorrectly for the rest of your comment. That materially changes how I read your comment, and I do mostly agree with your points.
I'm not sure I agree that this isn't exclusive to capitalism though. If you impose a tax that effectively caps wealth, then you are inherently compromising one of the core tenets of capitalism: private ownership of means of production. And I'm also not sure that this type of tax even goes far enough to prevent worker exploitation, but I guess we'll see if it ever actually happens.
If billionaires were no longer allowed, and the money was re distributed amount people with 9 figure net worth already, it doesn’t solve anything.
How exactly does wealth redistribution not solve anything? The disparity is the problem.
if people have the mobility to move from jobs, housing and Healthcare taken care of, and their basic needs met, I think it solves a lot of labor exploitation right away
And how are you going to pay for that without wealth redistribution?
What's their op ex though? I feel like there must be a sizable portion of that which isn't actually necessary to keep the service up.
I'll second what a few people have already said: outdoor concerts are usually the best ones IME.
Talking at shows doesn't really work. If you're able to carry a conversation, chances are you are being rude to the people trying to listen.
There are many ways that a concert can go wrong outside of the performer's control. All of these have happened to me:
-
Bad audio engineers. Too loud. Poor EQ.
-
Venue sold too many tickets and it's too crowded to dance or even stand comfortably.
-
Incompetent management results in poor logistics. E.g. long lines making people miss the show.
-
Venue itself just has poor acoustics that can't be fixed.
-
Crowd has assholes. People putting their phones up to record the whole time blocking your view. People shoving their way to the front. People not understanding how to behave in a mosh pit and hurting someone. People doing so much DMT that you can't breathe without smelling it.
-
Venue failing to provide free water.
Don't let that sour you on concerts though. I've been to way more good shows than bad ones. Usually if you find a good venue, it will stay good. Some performers are even so professional that they eliminate all possibility of the aforementioned issues by having their own staff take care of everything.
There ain't no way in fuck it's worth 60bn.
