David DayenIf DOJ is no longer investigating the murder of Renee Good they should have no problem relinquishing the investigation and all of the evidence to the state of Minnesota. And if they refuse, why couldn't the state sue the FBI for obstruction of justice?

Terminal TiltJeff Bezos is saying the quiet part out loud. They want to kill local computing.
You will own nothing and be happy. You will rent your computing power from the cloud. You pay a subscription for the privilege of using a computer.
AI demand is artificially spiking DRAM prices and Big Tech is pushing "AI PCs," the squeeze is on to force us into a rental model.
Reject this future. 
Keep your hardware local.
Run #Linux. 
Own your data.
The "cloud" is just a landlord for your data.

Joel Klebanoff 🇨🇦@newsguyusa Greenland is a self-governing territory of Denmark, a NATO member. The NATO Treaty requires that members come to the defense of another NATO member that's attacked, even if the aggressor is another NATO member.
Excuse me, I'll brb. I'm going out to exchange my bingo card for one that has "kinetic war between the US and the rest of NATO" on one of the squares.

abadideaZuckerberg has blown 77 billion – enough money to revitalize entire countries – on an idea so overwhelmingly, obviously stupid that I have never once heard anyone, from the Thanksgiving avuncular table to the most wretched depths of social media, say they liked it or even tried it. He was so sure that it would revolutionize the world that he renamed his extremely famous company after it. And now he's on to the next thing that he's so very, very sure about.
The world needs direction from sober people who aim to improve the human condition, not the whims of a handful of billionaire princelings who absolutely, positively cannot be dissuaded from failing at unprecedented scale while chasing their own vainglory off the edge of a cliff.

JA WestenbergModernity is a conspiracy to replace 'thick' desires (community, craft, transcendence) with 'thin' desires (likes, sugar, dopamine). Revolt by doing something slow. Bake bread. Write a letter. Code a tool for just one person.
Dimitris Nakos, MSc@Em0nM4stodon The moment fb asked me my ID card or passport to verify an account I had made I just gave up... What are they supposed to be to ask for this kind of data? To verify what? And I even dislike it when I am asked about my phone number... Why on earth do people casually give away info like that? "I don't have anything to hide" is not even an answer....
Kate KirbyHumanity really needed librarians to own Internet Search, not venture capitalists.
