No worries, we’re all friends here. Carry on yourself :)

Which is why I said I completely agree. Just adding some context…

Completely agree, but because another bad thing exists, it’s no reason not to care about this bad thing.

These are also separate (but obviously related) issues. The flock and other surveillance cameras are about control and, well surveillance. These meta glasses are about personal interactions and predatory behavior of creepy people. They are also markedly different than cameras in phones, since they are much more obvious that they are recording.

They both need to go.

I don’t know, more and more of those teams these days are being headed up by the same folks. Most on the ground, in the weeds know what not to do but the ivory tower keeps building more and more floors without ever updating the foundation.

I dont know, I like that it’s somewhat understated. It really hits hard IMHO. Goddamned good piece of art. Simple but says so much, and is applicable all over the world.

It is more important than ever to get these fucking services out of your life. Do not rely on a third party for your critical data and infrastructure. Use it if it’s convenient, but ALWAYS have a copy under your own control.

I can’t bring myself to blame the victims of shit like this, we’re up against massive corporate and government pressure to give over our lives to them. It takes genuine effort to protect your shit these days, but it’s more critical than ever and well worth the difficulty; even if you never need it.

My beard is grey, my first modem was a 2400baud. I couldn’t believe the speed when I upgraded to 14.4.

Back in the days of BBS glory. My first intro to the internet was via BBS’s, eventually got online through my mom’s alumni account at the U of M, using slip minuet and the mosaic browser.

My god I’m old.

Strange how a man who stands to make billions more from this, thinks all those opposed to it are wrong.

Guessing it’s due to his vast and deep knowledge of the subject, after long and careful scientific and sociologic research.

I remember my first RAM purchase, got it for a steal, $50 per 1mb 30 pin SIMM. I had 4. MEGABYTES of ram, windows 3.11 screamed!

Unfortunately the supreme count has ensured that he is unimpeachable. If they left any loopholes, the entire republican congress is there ONLY to run interference for the dude.

this is 100% AI slop. I’m sorry, but meat does not marble along state lines.

I have an interview next week, I can’t risk it just yet. Plus it’s mostly internal speculation as nothing but the salary reductions have been announced.

I’m afraid for a certain class, 1 of those things is not certain at all. The real crazy ones are working on the other…

Yeah, my company is chasing an IPO and so is slashing wages. People are leaving in droves, but since it makes number go up…

No care whatsoever about post IPO. It’s going to be awful.

It’s contempt, they all belive they are better than us, that by saying nothing it makes it true. They know they are lying but they are in positions of power that no longer require their honesty. Lying is more lucrative.
