Native plant/food gardening, reading books, working out... all of this stuff can be affected by capitalism too of course but I'm less beholden to it. I still game a bit now and then but much less than I used to. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) Even when steam is gone, we'll still have movies, books and music. Because of the analogue hole we can capture these and store these as long as unlicensed hard drive possession is allowed. Of course there are non-culture based activities but I think we shouldn't tolerate regression from big tech and take steps to prevent them just out of shear principle. These facilitator middlemen think they can dictate how to live our lives and I think we should make them regret this position severely. permalink fedilink source parent
