"The #WellbeingEconomy is an umbrella term for an alternative to #neoliberal capitalism. It's not just one thing.At its core, a wellbeing economy is an economy that explicitly places all people, all living things and our planet at the centre rather than the other way around."

UPDATE: (thanks Mauser II and Patrick Schmitz)
The screenshot issue is happening due to HW acceleration being enabled and is NOT a DRM thing!

The AMD video recording problem IS a DRM thing tho, which is why I assumed it was also causing this problem. My bad! (see screenshot in the Mauser thread for that abomination)

------

I was gonna share a screenshot of a football match I'm watching, because I think one of the teams has very nice kit colors, but I'm on Windows right now and screenshotting it leads to a black window - no doubt because of some DRM crap somewhere in this shit OS.

God I hate neoliberals and their capitalist bullshit :blobcatfluffangry:

Not sure if it's in Windows itself or in the AMD drivers or in the browser (firefox) but either way it's some freedom infringing bullshit and I can't wait for this whole system to come crashing down as it no doubt soon will

Merz' erste Antwort auf die Frage "Was ist drin für die Jungen" im neuen Koalitionsvertrag? (Bild Talk vom 13.04.)

▶️ "Wir werden den Arbeitsmarkt öffnen für mehr individuelle Vereinbarungen" ◀️

Na herzlichen Dank! Wie wir wissen, profitieren Arbeitnehmer*innen immer am meisten von einer "Flexilibisierung" des Arbeitsmarktes...

Suomen julkinen velka 1980 - 2025

Finnish public #debt 1980 to 2025

Kokoomus is the center-right neoliberal party, who always put on #austerity and say they’re doing it to ”get rid of the problem of debt”

I bet this story is the same everywhere else: If you look at what they did when they were in power, they almost single-handedly created the problem to begin with.

The most fluent liars of them all are the smiley-faced center #neoliberal #right. 👿

"You'll own nothing and like it", #tech people have said for decades.

It's only when the #neoliberal parties of the world realized that #LineGoUp would jux the numbers to show "growth" that we see companies become even more emboldened.

#Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down #TheCrew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version "to access a decade-old, discontinued video game" | GamesRadar+

GamesRadar+ · Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version "to access a decade-old, discontinued video game"By Dustin Bailey

#TheAmericanFascist uttered this morning.

“I’m proud to be the President for the workers, not the outsourcers; the President who stands up for Main Street, not Wall Street; who protects the middle class, not the political class; and who defends America, not trade cheaters all over the globe.”

The left wing social democratic forces of the world (including the #Liberals and #NDP in Canada) have been so neutered and brow beaten into incrementalism and neo-Liberal corporate capture, that a right wing, billionaire-wannabe, near-Nazi fascist, and politicians who want to be like him (Pierre Poillievre) have stolen the rallying cries of working men and women (but mostly men).

These were the warnings working people and socialist forces screamed when Free Trade and privatization was born by Reagan and Mulroney, Thatcher and Chirac. The de-unionization of western economies, the decimation of public infrastructure for private “partnerships”…

Now here we are, it all got so bad that the regular person, struggling to put inflated food on the table, or put their children through inflated college, are so fed up that they submit to the regressive, racist, anti-human, bloviations of populist tyrants.

A pox on you, “Liberals” and “Democrats” of the world.

You chose corporations while you placated people with false promises and false hopes.

You enabled the worst of the human condition through complacency and greed.

Your limp, unconvincing defence of Liberalism and Democratic values destroyed both.

What will you do to win back the podium to speak for working people? Perhaps you don’t deserve to.

And then, suddenly, #ElonMusk realizes that #Trump 's tariffs may possibly be an end in themselves, to simply generate #budget #revenue for the #USA #state ,and not a means of pressuring other #countries into bilateral #negotiations for the complete mutual elimination of all #tariffs as well as a drastic reduction in non-tariff barriers, which is the #neoliberal #dream .He starts to understand that, as far as his own #business is concerned, he may have bet on the wrong #horse .

#YanisVaroufakis: "Many refer to this world — the one in which #GenX grew up — as the #neoliberal era, others associate it with #globalisation, some identify it with #financialisation. It’s all the same thing — the world the #NixonShock begat and which the 2008 financial crash shook to its foundations. After the 2009 bailouts, although US hegemony continued unabated, it lost much of its dynamism. Today, the Nixon Shock has run out of steam — at least from the perspective of the Trumpists who want to give #UShegemony a second (or is it a third?) wind. This is the whole point of the #TrumpShock and its masterplan, including tactical moves such as enlisting #crypto to their cause."
