# Selflessness
|
||||
|
||||
Selflessness means acting with the intent of helping others without harming or taking advantage of them or anyone else, with the possible exception of oneself. It is the opposite of [self interest](self_interest.md). Selflessness is the basis of an [ideal society](ideal_society.md) and [good technology](lrs.md) (while self interest is the basis of our current dystopian [capitalist](capitalism.md) society).
|
||||
|
||||
In the real world absolutely pure selflessness may be very hard to find, but an example that comes close may perhaps be [Langar](langar.md), the big community kitchens run by [Sikhs](sikhism.md) that prepare and serve free [vegetarian](vegetarian.md) food to anyone who comes without differentiating between religious beliefs, skin color, social status, gender etc. Sikhs sometimes also similarly offer a place to stay etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Selflessness doesn't mean one seeks no reward, there is practically always at least one reward for a selflessly behaving individual: the good feeling that comes from the selfless action. Selfless acting may also include physical rewards, for example if a programmer dedicates years of his life to developing a [free](free_software.md) [public domain](public_domain.md) software that will help all people, he himself will get the benefits of using that program himself. The key thing is that he doesn't use the program to harm others, e.g. by charging money for it or even by using a license that forces others to credit him and so increase his reputation.
|
||||
|
||||
The latter is important to show that what's many times called selflessness nowadays is only **pseudoselflessness**, a fake selflessness. This includes e.g. all the celebrities who publicly financially support charities; this seems like a nice gesture but it's of course just a marketing stunt, the money spent on charities is money invested into promoting oneself, increasing fame, lowering taxes etc. This also goes for professional firefighters, doctors, [FOSS](foss.md) programmers that use licenses with conditions such as attribution etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Selfless programs and art should be put into the [public domain](public_domain.md) with waivers such as [CC0](cc0.md).

# Universal Basic Income
|
||||
|
||||
Universal basic income (UBI) is the idea that all people should get regular pay from the state without any conditions, i.e. even if they don't work, even if they are rich etc. It is a great idea and **[we](lrs.md) fully support it** as the first step towards the ideal society in which people don't have to work. As [automation](automation.md) takes away more and more jobs, it is being discussed more and experiments with UBI are being conducted, even though capitalist idiots rather try to invent more and more [bullshit jobs](bullshit_job.md) to keep people enslaved.
|
||||
|
||||
UBI that itself covers all basic needs is called full, otherwise it is called partial. UBI subscribes to the idea that **the goal of progress is to eliminate the need for work**, which is correct -- we should leave all work to machines eventually, that's why we started civilization. This doesn't mean we can't work, just that we aren't obliged.
|
||||
|
||||
The first reaction of a noob hearing about UBI is "but everyone will just stop working!" Well no, for a number of reasons (which have been confirmed by real life experiments). For example most people don't want to just survive, they want to buy nice things and have something extra, so most people will want to get some additional income. Secondly people do want to work -- work in the sense of doing something meaningful. If they don't have to be wage slaves, most will decide to dedicate their free time to doing something useful. Thirdly people are already used to working, most will keep doing it just out of inertia, e.g. because they have friends at work or simply because they actually happen to like going there.
|
||||
|
||||
Another question of the noob is "but who will pay for it?!" Well, we all and especially the rich. In current situation, even if we make the rich give away 90% of their wealth, they won't even notice.
|
||||
|
||||
Advantages of UBI:
|
||||
|
||||
- **People will seize to be slaves of capitalist employers** as it will no longer be mandatory to work somewhere. Nowadays people have to accept shitty working conditions because they have no other choice. They can't go elsewhere because it is the same everywhere or their conditions don't allow them to move, every employer abuses his employees as much as possible so people today can only choose their slave master but they can't choose not being slaves. **If people can actually leave, employers will have to offer good conditions to keep people working for them**. It may also lead to e.g. greater freedom from consumerism as people can e.g. decide to not use certain bad technology which they are nowadays forced to use by employers.
|
||||
- **It will greatly suppress [bullshit jobs](bullshit_job.md)** and undesirable phenomena such as the [antivirus paradox](antivirus_paradox.md). People who stop doing bullshit jobs will be able to actually focus on useful things.
|
||||
- **Suffering of many people will be lowered or eliminated**. Simple as that.
|
||||
- **We may actually save money** because the system will simplify a lot. Nowadays we have complex bureaucracy and commissions that judge who can get social welfare, who can get disability pensions etc. If everyone gets the money, we can save on this bureaucracy, commissions, on doctor examinations, caring about the homeless, maintaining special laws etc. If people become less stressed, mental health will also improve and we will save money on treatment of mentally ill people. Money may also be saved on organization of worker unions as they may become much less important.
|
||||
- **People will become less stressed**, happier, will have security and as a result perhaps even become more "productive" (this has been confirmed by some experiments).
|
||||
- **People will become more equal** which will shift us closer to the [ideal society](ideal_society.md).
|
||||
- **People will be able to do more important things than work if needed**, for example they may choose to focus on education for a few years, which will make the population better educated and therefore better.
|
||||
- **Social security will suppress fear in people** and therefore make them less xenophobic, less militant etc.
|
||||
- **Society will get nicer without homeless people shitting in the streets**.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Disadvantages of UBI:
|
||||
|
||||
- none
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, UBI works with [money](money.md) and money is bad, however the core idea is simply about sharing resources, i.e. true [communism](communism.md) which surpasses the concept of money. That is once money is eliminated, the idea of UBI will stay as the right of everyone to get things such as food and health care unconditionally. LRS supports UBI as the immediate next step towards making money less important and eventually eliminate them altogether.

Webpages are normally written in [HTML](html.md) language and can refer to each other by [hyperlinks](hyperlink.md). The web itself works on top of the [HTTP](http.md) protocol. Some people confuse the web with the Internet, but of course those people are retarded: web is just one of many service existing on the Internet (other ones being e.g. [email](email.md) or [torrents](torrent.md)). In order to browse the web you need an Internet connection and a [web browser](browser.md). An important part of the web is also searching its vast amounts of information with [search engines](search_engine.md) such as the infamous [Google](google.md) engine.

Another disaster came with **[social networks](social_network.md)** in mid 2000s, most notably [Facebook](facebook.md) but also [YouTube](youtube.md) and others, which centralized the web and rid people of control.

## History
|
||||
|
||||
World Wide Web was invented by an English computer scientist [Tim Berners-Lee](berners_lee.md). On March 12 1989 he was working at [CERN](cern.md) where he proposed a system called "web" that would use [hypertext](hypertext.md) to link documents (the term hypertext was already around). He also considered the name *Mesh* but settled on *World Wide Web* eventually. He started to implement the system with a few other people. At the end of 1990 they already had implemented the [HTTP](http.md) protocol for client-server communication, the [HTML](html.md), language for writing websites, the first web server and the first [web browser](browser.md) called *WorldWideWeb*. They set up the first website http://info.cern.ch that contained information about the project.
|
||||
|
||||
In 1993 CERN made the web [public domain](public_domain.md), free for anyone without any licensing requirements. The main reason was to gain advantage over competing systems such as [Gopher](gopher.md) that were [proprietary](proprietary.md). By 1994 there were over 500 web servers around the world. WWW Consortium ([W3M](w3m.md)) was established to maintain standards for the web. A number of new browsers were written such as the text-only [Lynx](lynx.md), but the [proprietary](proprietary.md) [Netscape Navigator](netscape_navigator.md) would go to become the most popular one until [Micro$oft](microsoft)'s [Internet Explorer](internet_explorer.md) (see [browser wars](browser_wars.md)). In 1997 [Google](google.md) search engine appeared, as well as [CSS](css.md). There was a economic bubble connected to the explosion of the Web called the [dot-comm boom](dot_com_boom.md).
|
||||
|
||||
Between 2000 and 2010 there used to be a mobile alternative to the web called [WAP](wap.md). Back then mobile phones were significantly weaker than PCs so the whole protocol was simplified, e.g. it had a special markup language called [WML](wml.md) instead of [HTML](html.md). But as the phones got more powerful they simply started to support normal web and WAP disappeared.
|
||||
|
||||
Around 2005, the time when [YouTube](youtube.md), [Twitter](twitter.md), [Facebook](facebook.md) and other shit sites started to appear and become popular, so called [Web 2.0](web_20.md) started to form. This was a shift in the web's paradigm towards more [shittiness](shit.md) such as more [JavaScript](javascript.md), [bloat](bloat.md), interactivity, websites as programs, [Flash](flash.md), [social networks](social_network.md) etc. This would be the beginning of the web's downfall.
