Never underestimate the willingness of capitalists to inflict suffering and death in the name of sustaining profits.

Belasting op arbeid voor vierde jaar op rij toegenomen in Oeso-landen

En daar gaat het huidige rechtse kabinet zeker geen verbetering in brengen.

《AI boosters love to frame this sort of thing as democratization because it makes it easy to label opposition as gatekeeping, as if the ability to create art was born from unevenly distributed talent rather than from passion and perseverance. 》

Roblox is pulling a DLSS 5, offering yet another example of a tool mistaking itself for an artist

Roblox makes a new version of the AI slop pitch we've seen time and again: replacing the creative process instead of making it easier.

For many years I was an avid footy fan. Die hard. Season ticket holder of our local women’s team. Coached my kids. All the everything.

Then I realized how bad FIFA is. Gender inequality, lack of protection against racism (despite self-serving PR), and host-city devastation.

It hurt to stop being a fan. Still, does, actually. But they can’t have my money or my audience.

FIFA Could Make Billions From the World Cup. Host Cities Will Get Little in Return.

A review of the contracts host cities signed with FIFA shows that almost all of the costs for organizing the tournament fall on the cities, whose ability to collect revenue is limited. In Texas, that could leave taxpayers on the hook.
