Dude didn't even pick a quote from the 1 movie that attempts to cast the Joker as a sympathetic character. I swear...
@> By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent
..... don't worry guys AI will totally save us from climate change! /s
I really appreciate Linus trying to tone down the nastiness in his replies over the years, but I'd be willing to let almost anything slide if it means getting a proper, old-school Torvalds tear-down of Musk.
I align with that article 's conclusion; in fact such a "fediverse browser" is exactly what I think the fediverse needs to fully replace closed/proprietary/traditional social media.
However, some of their arguments seem off. For example, for the client to be able to choose/implement it's own sorting algorithm, it seems to me that it would need to have access to all posts. At that point, your client is just another server, with all the problems that we're originally trying to avoid.
I have the same problem with your proposal / nostr's approach: you may obtain a portable identity but all the "content" tied to that identity still has to live somewhere - someone else's server or your own.
Still, I think the only way that would result in change is if the hack specifically went after someone powerful like the mayor or one of the richest business owners in town.
Penal battalions vs penal battalions is not a sign the war is going "well" for anyone (except maybe if you can short the prison industrial complex)...
I think the point is to scold Google for the harm they cause or fail to prevent. When the law is written so as to genuinely prevent harm (data protection, for ex) then I will scold those who don't follow it. When the law is written so as to be ineffective at best and harmful at worst, I will scold those who do follow it.
The point isn't to be consistent with regards to the law, as the law itself is not always either consistent nor "good".
... unless it is me that isn't understanding your own comment?
Copy-pasting the alt-text from one of the screenshots because I can't be assed to type it out myself:
Discord convo from 07/15/22, Vlad: people who really need anonymity are very rare. Probably less than a 100 in the entire world. Definitely not typical Kagi users. Unless they are criminals, in which case we don't care they don't have full anonymity (nor we want them as customers)
yikes, double yikes and triple yikes.
I guess he doesn't care to help women find a safe way to have an abortion in 14 out of 50 US states (source), for starters. Nor to help the doubtlessly more-than-100 queer folk in places that outlaw homosexuality.
Or maybe he's such a genius that he knows how to keep them safe without actually keeping them anonymous - and in that case, he should start selling such a technique as its own product /s
All of the fedi, even. I'm seeing this crop up on some mastodon instances.
Wow, I think that's the first fedi instance I've ever seen that's more or less dedicated to a single video game. Very cool.
Amen. We always need more insiders who are ready to take up the cause of not doing stupid shit with the ungodly accumulation of resources our society has permitted, especially when we are currently leaving so much of the world to play catch-up while we continue to leech them dry.
