It is weird how many times I have to tell myself out loud "reddit is bad for me; close that tab!"

I am grateful that facebook/instagram requires a login. It means I never have to look at it even when I am feeling weak.

Same with The Atlantic, The NY Times, and the Jeff Bezos Suck Billionaire Cock Machine The Washington Post.

Thank you for keeping me from reading that trash, rich people.

Wow ... call me surprised that it is all white people in the comic.

The public needs to create "where do cops live ?" and "what is each cop's collective record on abuse and arrests ?" type databases.

They need to be held to a higher standard that has us surveil them, too.

Watch them; follow them; write it all down.

The show The Wire basically showed the police destroying by the thousands US citizens' privacy to catch a few drug dealers.

What they have done to the least of us they will do to all of us.

Useless redirection.

The open and free web is long dead.

just thinking about robots.txt as a working solution to people that literally broker in people's entire digital lives for hundreds of billions of dollars is so ... quaint.

Spotify raised its prices by one dollar last year to $10.99 a month, the same price as Apple Music. Instead of coughing up $132 a year, more consumers...

As someone that might or might not have engaged in that sort of bold move cotton exit strategies literally mirroring the behavior I had repeatedly received from my corporate overlords let me say that it feels good on the way up.

Senators Demand Justice Department Halt Funding to Predictive Policing Programs – The Markup (themarkup.org)

The idea behind predictive policing is that by feeding historical crime data into a computer algorithm, it’s possible to determine where crime is most likely to occur, or who is most likely to offend. Law enforcement officials can then make proactive interventions, like conducting patrols in predicted crime locations, ideally...

Whatever you do don't tweet at your local PD asking if they use these types of softwares like someone did to my local police department years ago.

It will yield bad results.

I think that SteamOS is a great place to start people off with Linux.

edit: I mean if you plug a steam deck into mouse and keyboard and use it as a linux box.

it has the support of another company hiding as "games" and can WINE pretty easy with Steam controlling the WINE.

I'm not sure that I'm willing to care about what multi-billionaires think any longer.

If someone becomes a billionaire they should be ritually sacrificed for the republic by the hands of children as we all drink the billionaire blood in the starlight.

MonsiuerPatEBrown ,

and then the same rich people pay lobbyists to pay politicians to not to do that.

MonsiuerPatEBrown ,

they want the same access to enshittification funds as their anti-Union cohort Bezos has created.

MonsiuerPatEBrown ,

his Hawaii compound could be drone grief-ed instead; if coercion is the tools of the 21st century let us the collective take them back.
