fascism is capitalism showing its teeth, like what trump is doing more overtly now
AFAIK that is not the definition of fascism
But I’ve seen a TikTok of someone who is studying politcal doctrines (IDR if their level was Major or PHD) and what is currently going on was ticking off all the boxes
To example.com?
Huh. Maybe it does exist
What kind of weird spam is this? There is temp-mail.org, and description matches. But the name is wrong
Weak article
But to rescue the topic: yes, technically it could spy you and upload hashes of each 5 seconds of your mic into a datastore for recognition. But why do it in such a long and pricy way when the ads suppliers (one fo them being google) have all your demographics they need? And sometimes even know if a click on an ad banner resulted in a purchase. And that way don’t have to recognize if that was you talking, someone on the street or their own ad

Even using anonymized discount loyalty cards fuels the recognition which ad to push your way
For sure I would also expect that the division line lies somewhere else than just one continent. But so far that’s the only datapoint I have
No :D
But then my question is, do we feel there are a lot of such collections? Or rather not?
To rephrase a little bit:
“Are there places where someone could pull off another Petrarch today?”
That went dark very fast. I appreciate :D
I’ve never considered someone buying books as status symbols. But I can see that happening
Ok, sure. But you still buy them to read them
🤔 Isn’t reading them the point of collecting?
You seriously made me wonder :D
But still, even if they don’t read them, they know they have them. So the collector and the seller know that such book exists and is somewhere out there and the owner knows they have such title in their stash
Yes, for sure. But then that’s a “lost cache”. Similar to the works we’ll find in a few years buried somewhere under the ground. But what about “active collections”?
Interesting indeed
But also those two are cases when we discovered more or less “working copies” of interest.
Has there been a similar find of a text that was copied and given (I’m trying to broadly cover a meaning of “published” here)
Thank you!
I guess the community of private collectors might have (doesn’t have to be institutionalized, centralized nor digital, just the fact of knowing is enough) as a group some kind of grasp on who has what. But is that fact known?
Huh, that’s an example of what I’ve been looking for
What phrase should I search for to learn more about the archive?
But do we know if those have been generally indexed?
Yes, but that is a case when we knew we had them, we just couldn’t read them. I’m wondering if at least “index” of readable contents of most “libraries” is for sure known, mostly known or maybe there are many we don’t know what’s inside

Depends. I’ve found that it was able to explain to me (about Spanish) why, when and how to use this form or the other. But it won’t come up with a plan of lessons. And the level of support will depend on the amount of resources available for the language you want to learn
I don’t think they do, honestly. Being rich does not necessarily mean being smart
And those who pay for not being brought up on the lists of most rich, probably don’t use tech themselves
Their wealth comes from stocks, bonds and land, not an account that can be hacked. Their safety against kidnapping for ransom comes from being pals with most of politicians and/or having clout in the right circles to help any politician that will ping high enough to be allowed to get an appointment
