Tired of being lied to? Well, too bad because the lies will keep coming and there will continue to be truthbombs blowing them up. #Germany ran a 3-year study on #UniversalBasicIncome and have once again proven that people keep working. Period. #UBI #economics #mentalhealth
Just searching #handsoff and getting an insane amount of reports of enormous, peaceful protests all over the US and beyond. And CNN is finally covering it because it's too big a movement to ignore.
Um… yeah. Realign your perspective on #AI. #Capitalism doesn’t intend to leverage AI for the betterment of humanity. Instead, they plan on using it in conjunction with a range of other technologies to eliminate humans from the money-making process. #tech
I’m definitely a fan of #RetroComputing, but my allegiance clearly lies with #Apple rather than #Microsoft. My old PCs run #Linux or #Haiku, but I get what retro #Windows peeps want. So, if you want to install #Windows98 quickly, here you go. #tech #howto #utilities https://boingboing.net/2025/03/31/how-to-install-windows-98-asap.html
After some rather significant technical gymnastics some very smart people (myself not included) seem to have employed a fix to get #Microblog to #Mastodon crossposting working again with my setup! Here now is a test post to see how it works :) Documentation sometime next week for the benefit of other admins, as long as everything remains stable 😁🤞 #socialmedia #serveradmin #tech
Well, I’m an #Apple user and I can easily say that I will never consider a #GM product of any kind if I am disallowed from using my preferred platform. Last I checked, 35% of mobile devices users in the US are using #iOS devices. Solid marketing, dorks. #tech #cars #stupid
Wow. The new merlin video is truly frightening. In this episode he summarizes Ray Bradbury’s short story, The Veldt. He then proceeds to speculate on the generation of children born in the era of #ChatGPT and other #AI models. In short, it’s not good. #tech #dystopia #scifi https://www.youtube.com/@merlinmeek
Good news, everyone! #VideoGames workers now have a #union covering the #US and #Canada called United Videogame Workers, an off-shoot of the Communications Workers of America union. And it’s a Direct-Join union. Support it. #tech #FightCapitalism
Not one of #Microsoft’s best choices… out of a long history of making bad decisions. Disenfranchising millions of machines that will no longer be able to run a valid and/supported copy of #Windows is just dumb. Very dumb and great for Linux. #tech #Apple #linux
Good lord, this is so very #Microsoft now. How the once innovative, at least for a brief time through the #Windows 7 to Windows 10 era (ignoring Windows 8), have fallen. Stupid #capitalism. Stupid #AI. Stupid #advertising. #tech #Switch2Linux #UninstallWindows
