ex-microsoft yet hates MS. privacy is important. big data ai sucks, i wasted ~10 years doing it & regret it deeply 😀.
@0xabad1dea Now we're making the same mistake with AI, but on a larger scale.

We need a solarpunk future. We need degrowth. We need to be truly net-zero and circular. We need enough for everyone, whether in the US or Uganda. We need more Main Street businesses, not VC-backed "AI" startups. We need universal healthcare and child care and more third places.

Communism failed but so did capitalism. And both led to authoritarianism, just with different leaders.

@nuintari @jima @pepdmin I worked at MS 365 and can attest their products are garbage. I never used them at home, and kept my Postfix server instead of going to Outlook.

My Postfix server is still online, even now. My business also has one.

Dogfooding my butt.
@MarcinGondek @miyuru i got Netflix to unblock me. There is a special email for ISPs which I used myself.
@ryanc @fasterthanlime @whitequark if you need to lease from not-your-ISP I recommend Cogent. Yes, that Cogent that sells budget bandwidth.

I don't recommend IPXO for various reasons too.
Hey @GrapheneOS, when will Pixel 10 support be ready, even in an alpha state?

I mean, I could use my spare Pixel 9, but still want the status.

Soooo... PayPal is banning Asahi Linux users. Hey, can you maybe not do that please?

Yes, they ban Linux users with a GPU name containing the string "Apple M1". Anything else works.

Edit: To be clear they're banning the platform from access, not individual accounts. This won't get your account banned.

Edit 2: Alternate workaround: Spoof a Mac OS / Safari user agent. As you'd expect, "Apple M1" is allowed then.

What's this? An astroturf campaign from Lyft? No thank you!

Introduction 276 is actually a very good bill and should pass.
