This kind…

Tech has long been in the era of surveillance capitalism. Windows, Chrome, MacOS/iOS(iAds, NewsApp, notarization security, mediaanalysisd, and the most locked down hardware on earth), Android, the majority of all of the apps in the various walled gardens are all out to extract, analyze and monetize every aspect of our digital lives… which is a lot of our waking hours.
As users of these services we all need to ask ourselves if the companies who now make up the lion-share our retirement savings, who collectively dictate how we view and interact with the world really have anything but their own best interests in mind.
Most people would say no but “what am I supposed to do?”. People really need to understand that power like the kind that these mega-corps have is only taken and basically never surrendered willingly. Vote with your dollars now and for as long as it takes to see the fall of these vile companies.
US - Magnificent Seven Total Market Cap & Share of S&P 500 | MacroMicro
The "Magnificent 7" (M7) of the U.S. stock market refers to the seven major tech giants: Apple, Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon, Tesla, Alphabet (Google's parent company), and Meta Platforms (Facebook's parent company). Changes in the M7’s market capitalization and their share of the overall market reflect long-term productivity cycles and the era of tech giant dominance. Since the dot-com bubble of the 1990s, the importance of tech stocks in the U.S. stock market has grown steadily. In 1998, Microsoft surpassed General Electric (GE) to become the most valuable company in the U.S. In 2007, Google entered the top 10 U.S. companies by market capitalization for the first time. During the 2000s, Apple launched innovative products such as the iPod, Mac, and iPhone, ultimately surpassing ExxonMobil in 2012 to claim the title of the world’s most valuable company—a position it held for six consecutive years. In 2015, Facebook and Amazon joined the ranks of the top 10 companies, and the M7’s market capitalization share of the S&P 500 exceeded 10%. In 2018, Apple and Amazon both surpassed the $1 trillion market capitalization mark, with Microsoft reclaiming the top spot by the end of the year. The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 accelerated the trend of digital transformation, boosting the performance of tech giants despite broader economic challenges. Tesla achieved full-year profitability for the first time, with its market capitalization skyrocketing sevenfold, driving the M7’s share of the S&P 500 to over 25%. In 2021, Nvidia surpassed Berkshire Hathaway in market capitalization, making the M7 the seven largest companies in the U.S. by market value, with a combined market capitalization exceeding $10 trillion. Although 2022 saw a significant market correction due to the impacts of the Russia-Ukraine war, rising inflation, and interest rate hikes, the rapid development of generative AI, spurred by ChatGPT, propelled the M7 to new highs in 2023 and 2024. Their combined market share surpassed 30%, further solidifying their dominance in the market.
Core principals of Linus need to be written and followed.
Other than that, to me, the core rule of Linux is keep you code/app/service simple and atomic. Make sure that your widget talks/plays nicely with the OS components that it interacts with and that it can be easily swapped out for another analogue should you or all of the maintainers get hit by a bus.
The plans are all part of the company’s commitment to bring 40% of its DRAM manufacturing onto US soil, a goal enabled by a $6.2 billion Chips Act award the company clinched in 2024, and the ability to tap into a now-35% tax credit while construction is ongoing.
So nice that taxpayers are funding their own shortages now.>
I see lots of recommendations for Fedora here. I like Fedora but it tends to be a tad bleeding edge and major version upgrades used to be impossible or sketchy at best. I hope they at least largely worked out the upgrade thing by now.
Mint and Ubuntu are usually the best recommendation for people new to the Linux world. Bazzite if they are into gaming.
they mean the race to the bottom. just as pointless as the race to have the most nukes 50+ years ago.
Disagree. It was slow, boring and focused on the worst kind of character for 90% of its short season. The last episode tried to give viewers something to cling on to while they settle in for a wait that is likely to be 2+ years before the next season trickles out. Trump and AI will have burned the world to ground by then.
Extremely unlikely that the first and very eager participant in PRISM will ever see the sharp end of a government probe. Far more likely that this is some sort of theatrical and minor shakedown.
