Super Fun für Sprach-Nerds, Weird Fiction-Fans und alle, die gerne neue Sachen lernen: Diese Geschichte wird jeden Absatz 100 Jahre älter (& gruseliger), am Schluss sind wir um 1.000 sprachlich angelangt. Bis wann könnt Ihr verstehen, was da steht? Danach erklärt ein Sprachhistoriker die Veränderungen, die ihr da rückwärts mitgemacht habt.

A surge in new datacenters, each with the power demand of 100,000 households and a cooling water demand of 1,000,000 m³ per year to train AI models on material obtained without consent on hardware now unaffordable to consumers so fascism-adjacent tech billionaires can sell us the idea that any skill is now worthless and in doing so creating the largest economic bubble ever while simultaneously destroying society and environment.
I think that about sums it up.
You don't have to be perfect, but every step you take in the right direction helps:
X, Insta, TicToc ->
https://joinfediverse.wiki/Fediverse_projects
Microsoft -> Install Linux on it
AI -> ask intelligent humans instead, e.g. #AskFedi
Google -> https://noai.duckduckgo.com
GoogleMail -> @Tutanota
iPhone -> jailbreak it, use it until its dead, get a Fairphone with @e_mydata
Amazon video, Disney+, Netflix, Spotify, etc. -> Torrents
Google/Microsoft/Apple calendar -> physical calendar
Zoom -> meet friends IRL, or use @signalapp
Whatsapp -> Signal, or better yet @mollyim
omnivorism -> vegetarianism, veganism, freeganism, flexitarianism, ... (just consume fewer animal products and save food)
car -> public transit, bike, car-sharing
flying -> discover the beauty of your closer surroundings by train
job -> general strike
consumerism -> sufficiency
despair -> collective effectiveness & empowerment
