Trump revoked the order as part of revoking a long list of Biden executive orders. The reason? “To effectuate the revocations described in section 2 of this order, the heads of each agency shall take immediate steps to end Federal implementation of unlawful and radical DEI ideology.” Uh, okay.
We are going to see exactly far they can take this “radical DEI ideology” boogeyman. Maybe they’ll go to nuclear war over it.
IDK how helpful this is, but Apple intelligence appears to not get downloaded if you set your ipad language and your siri language to be different. I have it set to english (australia) and english (united states). Guess I’ll have to live without “gaol” support, but that just shows how much I’m willing to sacrifice.
Grimes has gotta stop drinking the brain-smoothing juice.
Exactly, that was most of why I decided to make this post. This is ultimately a distraction, intentional or not. They all say and do the vilest shit, and yes, it sucks, and yes, it does normalise outward actions of hate, amongst other terrible real-world effects, but that all pales in comparison to the power they hold and the decisions they can make to harm people.
Infighting-wise, that was a false hope, and hope is a mistake. If Trump were to fight Musk over something, it would be between something that benefits Trump and something that benefits Musk. Neither is likely to be good. Maybe we will get a bit of delay out of it, but that’d be about it.
No problem. But in case you were disappointed that you didn’t get the shitpost you feared, here’s tomorrow’s headline: “twitter character limit increased to 1488”
The insight is appreciated nonetheless. I would love to live in a world where America is not a Nazi bar and we had the luxury of finding humor in pinpointing exactly which neonazi playgroup musk is trying to join.
Fucking hell, lol. Back in October '23 I reposted some pro-palestinian content on social media from the “jewish voice for peace” organisation, and a guy who recently went on Birthright immediately started DMing me and was posting links to the ADL page claiming that JVP is an antisemitic organisation. Because I am a well-adjusted person, I didn’t need verification that the ADL was full of shit, but vindication is always nice.
Just give me time to shower and apply cologne, bb <3
In case anyone else comes here to say this: amongst many other things, this shit is funny. Even out of context: someone defending their choice of ex by saying they were good at gaming is already funny. Ladling all the other layers of context only makes it more and more farcical.
the writers of hey mickey have a writing credit on it, but the ting tings got shafted.
of course it is one in a long tradition of tech-tangential songs, including this banger about the inevitable collapse of tech bubbles
This is extremely tangential to the areas of sneer interest, but seeing as this is the only technology related community I am in, I’m putting it here.
This song has been making the rounds on the charts/social media and I refuse to believe that it isn’t about the package management tool apt
Me when I code bad: PR knocked back.

It’s ok, it’s not your fault!
Did my regular check in of a q-pilled family member’s facebook page. Zuckerberg’s new fash turn is not being received well as he is being read as the worm that he is. i.e. they are still mad about the anti-vax fact checking.
Hmm, any sort of vision for generating public support for development of a technology has to have either ideological backing or a profit incentive. I don’t say this to mean that the future must be profitable, rather, I say this to mean that you don’t get the space race if western powers aren’t afraid of communism appearing as a viable alternative to capitalism, on both ideological and commercial fronts.
Unfortunately, a vision of that kind is necessarily technofascist. Rather than look for a tech-forward vision of the future, we need deprogram ourselves and unlearn the unspoken narratives that prop up capitalism and liberal democracy as the only viable forms of society. We need to dismantle the systems and structures that require the complex political buy-in for projects that are clearly good for society at large.
Uh, I guess I’ve kind of gone completely orthogonal to your point of discussion. I’m kind of saying the collapse of the US is inevitable.
