"One can only imagine the horror the late Iain Banks would have felt on learning his legendary Culture series is a favourite of Elon Musk. The Scottish author was an outspoken socialist who could never understand why rightwing fans liked novels that were so obviously an attack on their worldview"
Excellent from Sam Freedman.

Mark Zuckerberg tries to silence Facebook whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams. He's probably too rich and untouchable, but everyone using Meta stuff should listen to this.

USA #monopoly #laws are completely outdated thanks to the Republican and Democratic parties #collusion in NOT regulating all the #techbros industries that were taking the place of the #surveillance state they didn’t want to fund directly with the federal budget. which explains the existence of InQTel.
the FTC going after Facebook/Meta and the Iguanazi without acknowledging he only exists thanks the above, IS the problem.
Billionaire that built his empire on IP protections demand now to abandon all IP laws, so he can further exploit the people. (he run's Tidal)
I demand now to abandon all ownership, so I can move into Jacks Villa, since Billionaires want now communism, right?
I'm really tired to hear those entitled people's opinion, as if they are wiser and have an unbiased / not self interested based opinion.

Internet is going great. Thanks to bot protection, you can't use #RSS / Atom feeds from #GNOME GitLab or #kernel cgit anymore. Which of course makes zero sense, because feeds are intended for machine consumption by design.
Honestly, #LLM #TechBros are the worst scum.

"End times fascism is a darkly festive fatalism – a final refuge for those who find it easier to celebrate destruction than imagine living without supremacy. ...
This is where the tech bros merge with the TheoBros, a real group of hyper-patriarchal Christian supremacists with ties to Hegseth and others in the Trump administration."
"You don’t need to be a biblical literalist, or even religious, to be an end times fascist. Today, plenty of powerful secular people have embraced a vision of the future that follows a nearly identical script, one in which the world as we know it collapses under its weight and a chosen few survive and thrive in various kinds of arks, bunkers and gated 'freedom cities'."
~ Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor
EU should demand Microsoft to give users a choice, as a mandatory Microsoft account to be able to use your hardware is another trick to lock in users, like the preinstalled browser and other bloatware.

PS Don't tell me the average buyer should use Linux unless you are willing to help them install as long as it is not preinstalled in the store.

“This is Putin's playbook.
He allows a business elite to make untold riches
in exchange for absolute loyalty.
Some people are calling this oligarchy,
but it's actually bigger than that.
These are global platforms.
It's broligarchy.”
—Carole Cadwalladr

It's a little sad to see how the old tech companies I once admired have turned into zombies compared to what they once were. I guess that's just the way things will always go if your company transitions into a wealth vehicle.
