En effet, le Prolétariat n’est pas la classe ouvrière le mot vient d’un mot latin qui dit “n’a que ses enfants pour toute fortune” est prolétaire celui qui “vit de son travail” et non de son capital, c’est à dire du travail des autres.
En revanche Stiegler a tord de dire que ce sont “des gens qui ne comprennent plus rien”, au contraire ils comprennent parfaitement qu’ils sont exploités - même si les patrons salariés sont également des prolétaires qui eux s’ignorent comme prolétaires et trahissent donc leur classe
@pal il a utiliser des termes peu précis, mais la prolétarisation c'est bien la question de la perte de contrôle de ses outils. L'IA promet la prolétarisation d'absolument tout le monde, sauf les techno-féodaux qui possède les robots bien sûr...
Heu non, outils ou pas tu restes prolétaire si tu vis de ton travail... Le capitaliste tout autant que le prolétaire peut posséder des outils, mais il ne les utilise pas lui même. Il en tire un revenu
@pal le "petit bourgeois" possède et contrôle son outil de travail, tout en étant prolétaire (de même que bien souvent, le paysan). Mais l'aspect qu'anticipait Stiegler, c'était cette perte de contrôle.
La question est de savoir s'il tire un revenu de son capital (qui peut être des Machines outils par exemple qu'il met a disposition pour qu'un autre travail) ou directement du travail qu'il fait avec. Dans le premier cas, c'est un capitaliste Dans le second un prolétaire
@pal tu devrais créer une entreprise, tu verrais. Selon ta définition, un livreur Uber propriétaire de son scooter est un capitaliste et pas un prolétaire.
pas du tout selon la définition (commune et que j'utilise) un livreur Uber est propriétaire d'un outils qu'il utilise pour travailler et non pas pour obtenir un revenu (du travail d'un autre) c'est donc bien un prolétaire et non un capitaliste
Bernard Stiegler explique ici son idée en termes communs. L'expression "des gens qui ne comprennent plus rien" s'applique à l'ensemble des taches nécessaires à la production d'un objet ou d'un produit. Pas à la compréhension qu'on peut se faire exploiter par un tiers. Exemple tiré de Marx : quand un ouvrier chaudronnier ne sait plus manier le marteau, mais uniquement utiliser la machine qui reprend les gestes du chaudronnier à sa place, il est prolétarisé. La prolétarisation c'est le processus de perte des savoir-faire d'un métier. Stiegler ajoute que c'est un phénomène qui se généralise.
Dire que le prolétaire vit de son travail est également juste. Il me semble pertinent de dire aussi qu'il est prolétaire par perte de savoir-faire et que cette perte se poursuit. S'y ajoute également la perte des savoir-être avec par exemple, les réseaux dits sociaux, et la perte des savoirs, avec les politiques entrepreneuriales au sein des universités, sans même évoquer la folle trumpisation de la recherche universitaire aux USA en ce moment.
En réalité, l'ouvrier qui maitrise une machine numérique ressent la même fierté que celle de l'ouvrier qui savait manier le marteau. Seulement l'agent de maitrise et le cadre (qui n'encadre plus personne) n'associent plus leur fierté au fait de vivre de leur travail : d'être des Prolétaires Et c'est ceci qui a changé Mais il est important de voir tout de même que ces cadres "sont" des Prolétaires et qu'ils sont donc de la même classe que l'ouvrier et son marteau ! Définir une "prolétarisation" c'est ôter la possibilité au cadre et à l'ouvrier numérique de se reconnaitre dans cette classe commune en dévalorisant le Prolétariat comme une "sous-classe" (cette sous-classe existe pour Marx aussi c'est le Lumpenproletariat, et une réflexion sur son retour au Prolétariat devra être menée de nos jours car contrairement à l'époque de Marx, cette sous-classe n'est plus minoritaire)
La fierté de savoir manier une machine qui effectue une tache ne compense pas la perte se savoir faire par rapport à cette tache. Je sais placer une plaque de métal dans une presse et actionner la presse qui forme une casserole. C'est certes un savoir-faire. Mais on a perdu celui du maniement du marteau pour effectuer la même tache. C'est une perte de savoir-faire technique, qui a été remplacé par un autre, moins exigeant. C'est ça une prolétarisation. Et ça fonctionne pour tous les métiers, que ce soit ouvrier, cadre, médecin, etc. (J'essaye de ne pas parler de classe parce que, si les classes sont encore pertinentes, la prolétarisation les touche toutes)
j'ai perdu la connaissance de faire du feu sans allumettes, briquets et autres objets allume feu, je suis donc prolétarisé par rapport à un homme des cavernes ? la Prolétarisation est une manière de voir par les forces capitalistes pour séparer les Prolétaires de leur classe ! et c'est bien de classe qu'il faut parler parce que si on oublie la lutte de classe on devient comme les Socialistes des collabos des forces capitalistes

Hello, I'm still a noob when it comes to computers. I had a dual boot Windows 11 and OpenSuse Leap 15.6. My problem is that I was using my laptop as always and I was simply searching through internet when the system glitched. So I tried to restart my laptop, but then it showed screens with sth like Bios corrupted, blue screen etc. And then it restarted but only with Windows 11. When I check the settings partition has fully free memory, so it means that my OpenSuse is gone.
What could have gone wrong?
Sorry for the noob question and thanks for any help. I'm just really davastated.
I've figured out that after the Event 41 Task 63 I've must have clicked Enter at some point during the restart (I don't remember) and Leap got deleted. It's not about showing partitions correctly but it's really just gone. Eh Thanks for the answer anyway
but to repeat: windows dies not understand linux partitions to any extent. it shows them as "uninitialized space" or something like that, so that it looks like it's gone. It's always best to check the partitions with gparted on a live system (e.g. systemrescue linux)

Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

Ça vaut de loin une séance de psychothérapie. En plus, c'est la base de notre alimentation, on se nourrit littéralement de ça. Les arbres, les prairies et l'eau provoquent le sentiment d'abondance.

Just got an Email from #Delta. They're changing things up starting October 1st. As of Oct-01 the cheapest airfare option will no longer earn you SkyMiles.
So, for context, I have an HDMI dummy plug that is disabled most of the time, but enabled through command-line to use as a virtual display for game streaming with Sunshine.
In GNOME settings, the display is disabled, and that works just fine. I can enable/disable it at will whenever I want to stream games using the new gdctl utility added in GNOME 48.
I want this “monitor” to be disabled in GDM as well since it keeps trying to use the dummy plug as the default display and I can’t see and of the UI elements and have to type my password in blindly. I’ve copied over my monitor config from /home/user/.config/monitors.xml to /var/lib/gdm/.config/monitors.xml as per the Arch Wiki’s recommendations, but when I log out/reboot, nothing changes on GDM. It still tries to show the password entry UI on the dummy plug and my actual display just shows a gray screen.
I know the configs are different for X11 and wayland, but both GDM and GNOME are running under wayland, so that shouldn’t be the issue.
Just checked the ownership of the monitor config, it was gdm:root, so I changed the ownership to gdm:gdm and rebooted. Still facing the same issue.
Didn’t see any error messages in the logs about not being able to load wayland, but just to confirm, I ran loginctl show-session {gdm session id} -p Type which returns Type=wayland, so it’s definitely running under wayland. I have an AMD GPU though so I wouldn’t expect there to be any problems there.
Not seeing anything else weird in the logs that are jumping out as strange to me either, so a bit at a loss here. Any other suggestions?
The disabled dummy plug is the “Evanlak8K V2” device while my functional monitor is my Samsung Odyssey OLED G9. This config is the same as the one currently running on my GNOME desktop config, but in GDM still defaults to the enabled dummy plug, even with the fixed ownership.
At this point, do you think I should issue a report on GDM’s repository? Maybe the devs there would have more insight
My monitors.xml has two <configuration> blocks, with the only real difference being that one has <layoutmode>physical</layoutmode> and the second has <layoutmode>logical</layoutmode>. I don't really think that'd be the issue here though, because if the dummy plug is listed as disabled it shouldn't be trying to use it anyway...?
I think you're right in reporting it to the GDM repo, at a minimum someone there will know where to point you towards figuring this out. Maybe the GNOME Mutter repo might be a related stop for this too, seeing that's the part generating the monitors.xml...
The things that are supposed to be simple are always the bits that suck the most!
Very well said. Thank you very much for your help. I wouldn’t have known to check the ownership issues or if GDM were properly running Wayland were it not for your help. I’ll reach out to the GNOME devs on the relevant repositories and see if they might be able to point me in the right direction. Thank you for your time and expertise.

I’m working on a custom Linux Mint ISO (using Cubic) for a dedicated system with auto-login. I’m trying to automate Vino (VNC server) setup during installation using preseed, but I’m running into two issues:
Changing Vino settings in preseed commands
I need to set org.gnome.Vino authentication-methods to ['vnc'] for the autologin user. I’ve tried variations of:
in-target su -c "gsettings set org.gnome.Vino authentication-methods \"['vnc']\"" username
But the setting doesn’t persist. I’ve also tested in-target sh -c and direct gsettings calls without luck.
What’s the correct way to apply gsettings changes for a specific user during preseed?
Autostarting Vino Server
I need /usr/lib/vino/vino-server to start automatically after login. Since this is an auto-login system, I’d prefer a method that:
Works via preseed (e.g., adding to startup apps).
Can be toggled later via Cinnamon’s startup settings (if possible).
What’s the best way to set this up? .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart/? Or another approach? Preferably, it would be more easily configurable in userspace, but if this is the only option then I understand.
I have a thinkpad lying around. I have used Linux over the last 5 years and I an NOT a power user. I use Mint and it gets the job done for me.
Lately though, the whole libre software bug bit me and I want at least one machine that is libre compatible through and through. I have heard some stuff like Parabola and GNUIX or something like that, but thought it best to ask around first before even thinking about something like this.
My work essentially involves writing documents (LaTeX and LibreOffice), doing statistical analysis, and making lectures. I access emails via Thunderbird. That's it.
Does anyone here daily drive a fully libre laptop?

The Postbox and Zen Postbox add-ons have been updated with a bunch of new styles!
* Solid Colors renamed to match HTML color names * 24 new solid colors added * 5 new gradient backgrounds added * 17 new pattern backgrounds added * 11 animated backgrounds added * Fixed the load order so it overrides Postbox styles in Bookface if present
The previous solid color names have been mapped to the new ones, so any existing Postboxes in your feed using the old names will still look good.
The gradient backgrounds were ones that got missed from the initial release and are similar to the ones Facebook used to offer.
The pattern backgrounds all use pure CSS, no images, so they will render fast and do not incur an additional resource load from the server.
The animated backgrounds are exclusively available on servers that use either of the two add-ons. None of the animated styles are included in the Bookface scheme because some of them use SVG images. They use pure CSS animation as well, no JS code or animated GIF images.
Notice how I said the gradients were similar to the ones Facebook used to offer? Shortly after I introduced Postboxes to Friendica the backgrounds on Facebook were coincidentally(?) completely overhauled. IMO Friendica now has a nicer selection anyway and even Facebook doesn’t offer animated post backgrounds.
Note: These styles ONLY work on Friendica and only if the viewer is using Bookface 1.7 or either of these add-ons is enabled, and the animated backgrounds only work with the add-ons. For most other platforms (Mastodon, Bluesky, etc.) they'll just see the content inside the postbox. However you should know there are still issues with Postbox posts shared to either Diaspora or Hubzilla.
They are coded to stop animating when you hover or touch them, adopting a default appearance. I did it that way because "animation-play-state" is still a bit unreliable and I liked the idea of them having a "poster" state rather than just pausing at where ever they were in the animation loop.
* Restyled “New Message” button to make it more obvious. * Fixed Profile Pics and Cover Photos not working in old iOS browsers * Moved Postbox styles to the end of the stylesheet * Minified Postbox CSS. * Restyled Item Responses * Action Buttons you’ve interacted with before now adopt accent color. * Fix for disabled Action Buttons to make it clear they are disabled. * Fixed issue with slow-loading secondary toolbar in Safari * Updated with Postbox version 1.1 styles — names of solid colors now match HTML color names — 24 new solid colors — 5 new gradient backgrounds — 17 new pattern backgrounds
Some of these will be fairly obvious. The big one is that the Action Buttons below posts and comments used to change to the accent color on hover and there was no indicator if you’d previously interacted with any of them. NOW they have a slight shift in darkness/lightness on hover and the accent color indicates you’ve previously clicked the Like, Dislike, Share, or Event buttons (the exceptions being Comment or Quote). If a post's scope is limited (not public) the "Share" and "Quote" buttons are now obviously disabled by being faded out.
Engagement Counts also now show an icon indicating the type of engagement, which should make it easier to see what kind of engagement a post or comment is getting. And if there are 2+ the individuals are revealed in a pop-over box rather than pushing the entire layout down.
The new Postbox pattern backgrounds are done with pure CSS, no images! So they’ll load and display fast and don’t incur additional server calls. Postboxes are just a nice looking way to dress up your text-only posts. Of course only Friendica users will see them, and only if they are using the Bookface scheme or their instance has installed one of the Postbox add-ons. The styling doesn’t transfer to other platforms (Note: there are still issues with Postbox posts shared to Diaspora and Hubzilla).
Thank you to everyone who gave me feedback, reported issues, and tested things for me to help improve Bookface for everyone. 😁

I’m just glad someone is exposing these indoor kid parks. Of course not all of them are bad. As a parent I’ve had to constantly decline these birthday invitations and look like a complete asshole doing so. Zip line parks, trampoline parks, wall climbing, or these indoor kid playgrounds. My initial parent reaction was avoid these places like the plague. When I was a kid everyone had their white trash kids party at Discovery Zone. I’m proud of my Mom saying No back then. Then I started to let my guard down and take these parks on a case by case basis when it rains for like a month in the winter. I tell my wife we cannot afford the medical bills if our kid breaks an arm like the answer is no. Inevitably it’s some family member invites us I’m at work then she’ll take a risk. Not only is it predator central. The best case scenario is it’s ran by a 14 yr old getting paid minimum wage. Those aren’t the kind of theme parks you want to visit. To find out many of these are owned by the same people and Little Gym is implicated feels like some validation.

A new plane “free of charge,” family business deals, and crypto investments in the Gulf monarchies are conjuring the specter of the Middle Eastern states trying to curry special favor, casting a shadow over President Donald Trump’s first visit to the region.
Confusion and controversy over a “free” plane given to the U.S. by Qatar raises secondary concerns about business deals in the Middle East being made by Trump's offspring.

House Republicans sparred aggressively with Democratic lawmakers in a tense meeting this week of the Energy and Commerce Committee, insisting that their planned revisions to Medicaid were intended to stabilize the program and would not remove millions of recipients, including those who are disabled from the program.
Entitlement cuts are always a poison pill to elected officials. Here, the planned revisions to Medicaid that may be part of the Republicans’ “big, beautiful bill” is a handy tool for Democratic opposition touching a raw nerve.
The Democrats' leaders are mostly lying traitors, so there is little hope for good sense in anything they say. Ditto all the RINOs. But I happen to know that God is well involved here, and they will most certainly be sorry. In fact, they have already started such a thing. What we see now is not unrelated to the actions of rats caught in live traps with a cat sniffing the bars.
Liberal activists should focus their attacks on congressional Republicans and perceptions of widespread corruption in government instead of the policies and actions of President Donald Trump and billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, according to a Democratic political research firm. washingtonstand.com/news/liber…
Bill Maher is a comedian, not a politician. And yet, his words ring surprisingly true on the jam Democrats find themselves in over transgender extremism. “You … want to lose every election? Just keep coming down on the side of parents coming in second [in] a ‘Who gets to decide what goes on with my kid contest.’ … I’m not even a parent, and I get it,” he told Jon Lovett. So do most Americans, new polling shows. washingtonstand.com/commentary…
