It is NOT okay to abuse anyone's #body for #profit. Therefore, it is neither okay to bring the remains of a #humpbackwhale to a "rendering plant" -no, that's not a #plant, it's an intricate part of a for-profit industrial exploitation and slaughter machinery-, instead of giving the remains back to the not-for-profit #system on the seafloor.

Yes, this is, by a trillionth part or something, also about #Timmy.

The former #CEO of #Microsoft once described #Linux as a #cancer that was ruining Microsoft's #business. In the end, it's the other way around. Microsoft is the cancer that is infecting Linux and commercializing it without respecting the #philosophy of #free #software.

Microsoft's #Azure #cloud runs on Linux #servers. Microsoft generates the majority of its #revenue through cloud #services. In other words, it makes use of free software—specifically, from the open-source community project—without contributing to or supporting it in a meaningful way. On the contrary, Microsoft has been fighting the spread of Linux on the #desktop with #Windows from the very beginning. However, the company has learned how to profitably market free software. Unfortunately, this is a sign that die-hard capitalists are incapable of learning. Their greed for profit blinds them to the common good. Since Windows now accounts for only about 5% of Microsoft’s business model, it is used solely to keep customers within the Microsoft ecosystem and sell them cloud services. Meanwhile, Windows 11 is getting worse and worse, partly due to the use of AI.

The only company worse than that is #Nvidia, which also uses Linux but nevertheless actively prevents the development of decent open-source drivers for Nvidia #hardware. So while the #company understands the benefits of Linux, it still actively resists contributing to this #collaborative #project.

Capitalism in its final stages—and, unfortunately, one of the reasons why humanity is heading so rapidly toward the #collapse of #civilization.

A quotation from Lovecraft

As for the Republicans — how can one regard seriously a frightened, greedy, nostalgic huddle of tradesmen and lucky idlers who shut their yes to history and science, steel their emotions against decent human sympathy, cling to sordid and provincial ideals exalting sheer acquisitiveness and condoning artificial hardship for the non-materially-shrewd, dwell smugly and sentimentally in a distorted dream-cosmos of outmoded phrases and principles and attitudes based on the bygone agricultural-handicraft world, and revel in (consciously or unconsciously ) mendacious assumptions (such as the notion that real liberty is synonymous with the single detail of unrestricted economic license, or that a rational planning of resource-distribution would contravene some vague and mystical “American heritage” — economic oversight, price-fixing, “government in business”, etc. recur often in American colonial history) utterly contrary to fact and without the slightest foundation in human experience? Intellectually, the Republican idea deserves the tolerance and respect one gives to the dead.

H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) American fabulist [Howard Phillips Lovecraft]
