Surprising to see Youtuber PewDiePie (110M subscribers) publishing a video last night , "I installed Linux (so should you)" with a call to his community to join the platform, underlining the fun of customisation and DIY, in opposition to all the enshitification of Windows. His main point of friction for moving was Photoshop, and he explained how he made the effort to adapt GIMP to his needs. Always good to see initiatives like that shared to large audience.
HAHA
#Fosstodon, the instance getting slandered by the #Fediblock losers as having a #Nazi mod team, has probably had me suspended from their instance for awhile now lollllll
I just realized that Drew DeVault gave tech CEOs another excuse to hire only H1B workers.
>inb4 at least one big tech service or government infrastructure goes down within the next few weeks and Drew DeVault gets mainstream news coverage for it.
So people are saying that Klaus Schwab's replacement is even worse. I obviously don't think he's any better and he could be worse, but people are pointing out that he used to work at Nestle and openly said that water should be a commodity and not a human right.
Thing is, that is already the case right now. Unless you have access to a well or a rain bucket or are willing to drink water straight from a pond or river, you are already paying for water either in the form of a water bill or just straight up paying for water bottles.
It is literally impossible to monopolize water even with an artificial monopoly. Even if they somehow make rain collecting and wells illegal worldwide, I bet their will be mass disobedience. The only way they could get away with it is probably through geoengineering and making it rain in certain locations, but that can severely back fire on them.
Everything I Want To Do Is Illegal is a hilarious book even though the topic is deadly serious. It's an in your face rational rebuttal to all of the STUPIDEST things government and agribusinesses do to screw up farming and the food supply: https://www.amazon.com/Everything-Want-Do-Illegal-Stories/dp/0963810952?&linkCode=ll1&tag=conspiracybot-20&linkId=f55f07651855fa6e64c0df9296178f92&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl #ad
We're not far off from "I use Free Software because I don't have time to fiddle with computers" and most proprietary tools will be seen as the make-work exercises in futility they are.
