Don't buy from companies that do this, should be obvious?

That's already a much more sensible view on anti work than i'm used to, I can see the argument in this. However there will be such ethically wrong jobs in the current system for as long as they don't get automated away.

Once that happens things could get even worse for the people dependent on such jobs, so we need to fight on forcing the wealth created by automation to be shared, either through UBI or some other system... This would partially eliminate that dependency maybe?

Given the lower-than-ad hominem I won't even bother to try and correct you in deforming my words, just know that the very tech and infrastructure that allows you to say this was built by the system you say you hate...

Why don't you go live in the woods then?

Anti-work people are really a special case... If you don't want to work for someone else then start a business and work your arse off for yourself, if you don't want to do even that then quit society and go live in the woods like in this picture, maybe you'll survive, maybe you won't...

But 90℅ of these posts are about some utopia where all millionaires and up are dead, no one works and somehow it all works out...

The Chinese are doing a good job with open source ai models, especially Z. Ai, qwen and minimax, Google also got us something decent with gemma4, but yeah we need commercial AI to fail so we can get affordable access to vram...

True that one is indeed a bit overkill compared to MCUs, but I've worked with it extensively and it I indeed able to be used bare metal through xboot/awboot. It's larger cousins like the v851s and T113-S3 aren't as easy though.

The cheapest thing you could still run linux on would probably be an Allwinner F1C100s, you can get those in bulk for about 2 £
