As I grow older, I trust more and more my intuition and energy.

People can be deceiving. I don’t trust words as I used to.

My parents used to say that argument for me to finish my plate.

Until I found a better argument and never heard that phrase again.

Your employer wants you to be in a mindset of scarcity and fear.

That way, he can have leverage over you and easily control you.

You should never allow it.

If you’re being intimidated for termination, look for another job and make it easier for him to fire you.

Show him that have options and don’t care.

Damn, that’s crazy, man.

Hope it goes well for you!

I switched from Windows to Linux full time around Feb 2024.

I think Linux is ready for desktop use.

Most games work on Linux or with Steam Proton.

But some games still don’t or has kernel level anti-cheat systems.

I would just ignore those games.

Technically, not all corporations are evil.

For example, I’m a solo-entrepreneur and I own my own company/corporation and I’m the only one in it. I don’t think I’m evil. (For now??)

But I get what you mean. I’m assuming evil comes with size, power and influence

thefrankring,
@thefrankring@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, exactly. I think it depends on your goals and aspiration.

The more a company/corporation grows, the more likely it is to become souless and evil.

For now, I’m a “little guy” and I love the freedom that comes with it. The moment you bring employees and people, then you have to start managing and stuff.

We’ll see what the future holds.

A corporation is simply a legal entity that anybody can register. You could have one tomorrow morning if you wished.

I do own a corporation, even if I’m alone. It’s just that I own all the shares and equity privately. I’m also a business owner because I run a business with that corporation. But a business owner can also run a business without a corporation if he chooses to.

Now, you can do a lot of things with a corporation depending on your goals and aspirations. It has different rules, laws and purposes than a normal employee or a self-employed individual.

Examples: hire people, tax benefits, grow larger, own assets, sue and be sued, raise capital, loan/borrow money, go public, etc.

A corporation is what you make of it.

I wouldn’t say higher but it is definitely different.

You might need to pay more tax because of double taxation. You are your own entity and the corporation is also an entity. This means that the corporation has to pay taxes on profits and you also have to pay taxes personally on the salary/dividend that you recieve.

But there are also other tricks to reduce or optimize taxes like tax reduction on business expenses.

When you’re a business owner, you can usually optimize to pay the least amount of taxes possible with the help of an accountant. Things that you have less control when you’re an employee.

When you hear large corporations and rich people not paying much taxes (if not at all), some are just being smart with their business and accountants.

So happy Windows is protecting us from spyware and malware.

Now, we have to protect ourselves from Microsoft.

You can use the Google Play store anonymously with the Aurora Store.

Other than that, you can probably find free and open sources alternatives instead of using Proton.
