35·2 days agoThere are very few things I’m passionate about. That list would be shorter, the rest would be “not strong opinions on”.
Billionaires and those who carry water for them: All are bad, and should be taxed till they’re millionaires and then mostly ignored.
It’s your body and your life, do whatever you want. But, don’t expect there to be zero consequences for every choice. “Your right to swing your fists ends at my nose.”
Respect is earned. Over and over.
Everyone on Earth deserves “free” healthcare–paid for by a tax on all. The people allocating the money should have ZERO say in what is funded.
31·2 days agoWe need to be careful how we allocate power. A judge having the power to single-handedly take down a business is too much.
Power corrupts. Corrupt actions by the powerful you agree with today, can be turned against you tomorrow.
11·2 days agoThey’ll do a 180 once the riots start.
Apparently, “kink”, “fetish”, and “things I like in a slightly sexual way, or even just obsess over” all mean the same thing now. Oh, and “obsess” is another such word.
This is one reason it’s so hard to communicate clearly.
2·6 days agoWould need to be capped, but the cap is too low. Let’s make it 25% and 10% global.
Billionaires are insatiable. They’ll keep siphoning more to their coffers till we put them out of our misery.
I mean, it sounds like a good feature on paper, and it’s perfectly doable. Tablets have add-on keyboards, old phones had slide out keyboards, so touchscreens + keyboards IS a thing.
But, touchscreens on laptops? Nope. People don’t want that.
Imagine having an enforced law against foreign funding of political campaigns.
Meh. Oligarchs throwing a tantrum. They’ll get over themselves.
211·10 days agoHere’s a 4K 75" signage display that can run with or without internet connection, $800
And, then the judges come in behind them and interpret however they’re paid to.
But, it’s all above board and legal. That’s justice.
Unless it isn’t legal, but that doesn’t seem to matter at all:
Clarence Thomas Broke the Law. Why Is He Not Being Prosecuted?
It’s no surprise. They’re all in bed together.
Softbank invested $122 billion in Open AI: https://tracxn.com/d/companies/openai/__kElhSG7uVGeFk1i71Co9-nwFtmtyMVT7f-YHMn4TFBg/funding-and-investors

The bosses of Samsung Electronics, OpenAI, and SoftBank held a three-way meeting in South Korea to discuss potential collaboration in AI. Samsung Electronics Executive Chairman Lee Jae-yong met OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son at Samsung’s office in Seoul on Tuesday.
Finland should kick Google out of the country for this. I’m sure many want to.
Everyone, which is why Google did it illegally.
6·13 days agoI’d rather, and I do, donate to apps like Blender, LibreOffice, Wikipedia, and Lemmy, etc. Free to use for people who can’t afford to donate. I donate monthly to those because I use them a lot and I can afford it.
For only 300 searches, that’s 10 searches a day. I do probably 50 to 100 searches per day.
So, it’s really $10 a month.
I might pay $5 a month for unlimited but I’m not sure about that. Because, you know they’ll raise the price if they get successful enough. And, then it’s just a constant march to more enshittification.
6·14 days agoGuess what?
The closet is where Narnia is.
