Incredible. Does this work with Windows VMs?

Hm. Is this production Nextcloud and email run by a coop? This might indeed be what I’m looking for. I don’t need someone’s proprietary software. Well run FOSS in the cloud might be more than enough.

Oh yeah. It took me a while to figure out they have much more in common with my interest than the wealthy techbros.

Interesting, they even host their own Mastodon instance.

I think that, if we want something fash-resistant we probably need something by a worker co-op where the whole org has to be fash to be a problem. I’m not aware of such services. A non-profit like Proton is next on the list. I’m not aware of another non-profit email provider. Tuta seems interesting but they’re for-profit.

Also any of those should be based somewhere in Europe since the US regulatory regime is weak and about to get weaker. Email isn’t end-to-end encrypted so its privacy depends on the regulatory regime of the provider.

A reminder for what happens when someone loses (a limb or the whole body) in the game of free market competition - they get taken over by the survivors. Every cycle decreases the number of players.

A shutdown would be preferable than a sale of the active app and userbase to Elon no?

Thank you!

Warned by, how? A brief sentence with no citations would be enough for me.

Right. The LLC makes all of it worse, no question. Also I’m not a huge fan of pricing significant externalities since as you point out, pricing is difficult, prone to error, can be too low, etc. I mean the whole point of an LLC is to offload risk to society in exchange for economic growth, with the idea that it would outweigh the the societal cost. I’m not sure that it does. :D

Yes

What you’re seeing here isn’t a flaw of the shareholder model. It’s a fundamental flaw in the free market. You can’t fix its inability to price in externalities. Instead you have to put the market in its place in order to mitigate them. For example by forcing it to price in externalities, or by taking away externality-generating activities out of the hands of the market and into public hands.

Among other things:

• anti workers rights
• anti immigrant
  • with exceptions for his own businesses
• anti safety nets
• pro fascist
  • he’s began propping up Reform in UK and AfD in Germany
• pro corporate

Basically your bog-standard right-wing corporate fascist grab bag. He’s using his platforms (in all meaning of the word) to push that internationally.

My first instinct was to poke fun but it’s actually important to keep breaking this overpaid influencer’s false image. He’s actively using it to push his harmful agenda.

I like JSON output. Will make my monitoring jobs less fragile.

Wait I thought the ByteDance CEO said they weren’t Chinese but Singaporean.

Also having Elmo own both Twitter and TikTok would be fucked.

I haven’t been able to get it to accelerate in any environment. The status might show green in chrome://gpu but when I actually check in debug while playing, it’s always using software.

Use a local, open source voice recognition and the problems with understanding ad blocking related phrases should disappear. 😁
