FlashMobOfOne , to Chat in Thoughts on the Debate: We're doomed.
@FlashMobOfOne@beehaw.org avatar

I'm shocked that the guy who has handlers to make sure he doesn't wander off had a sub-par debate. /s

These two candidates are there because they're useful idiots for the billionaire class. Neither of them give a damn about anyone, and it's probably past time to stop pretending Trump 2.0 isn't happening and have an exit strategy.

FlashMobOfOne , to Chat in It looks suspiciously as though Roberts doesn't want to be remembered as the chief justice who obliterated all respect for the Supreme Court
@FlashMobOfOne@beehaw.org avatar

Meh.

John Roberts is worth $25,000,000.

That's all he cares about. We're really going to find out how awful all of these people are after November, I imagine.

I dunno, man. I keep telling people to stop voting capitalist, and every election it's 99% Democrat and Republican, so this is what happens.

FlashMobOfOne , to Technology in The Stanford Internet Observatory is being dismantled: U.S. Republicans attacked the lab’s reports on misinformation and election integrity — and now the institution is pulling the plug

Reminds me of how vociferously the Right raged against Obama when his DOJ released its report on domestic terrorism and rightly attributed to right-wing interests. Obama, as the good corporate lap dog that he was, apologized for saying the correct, factual things, which is weird, because that report's one of the few good things Obama ever did.

FlashMobOfOne , to Chat in How's your week going, Beehaw?
@FlashMobOfOne@beehaw.org avatar

Not awesome.

Dad's in the hospital for the umpteenth time.

Kid brother died yesterday morning, and even better, may have inadvertently hung himself during autoerotic asphyxiation. (Though, objectively, that seems like a decent way to go, truly.)

Israel keeps pounding murdering people in Gaza as Palestinian death toll in hostage rescue raid rises to 274.

That feels a tad more honest.

FlashMobOfOne , to Technology in US agencies to probe AI dominance of Nvidia, Microsoft, and OpenAI
@FlashMobOfOne@beehaw.org avatar

LOL

US agencies will take their bribes and do jack shit. As with everything else, Europe will lead on the regulatory front.

FlashMobOfOne , to Technology in Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week
@FlashMobOfOne@beehaw.org avatar

They still sold user data without being upfront about it until caught,

And then they did better, as a business should. It's all in their FAQ.

I'm not sure why there has to be a circle jerk of trolls any time someone mentions Brave, but here we are.

@FlashMobOfOne@beehaw.org avatar

I work out six days a week, haha.

Once you get to a point where it's like brushing your teeth, it's easy.

That's fine. Do what you like.

I think that, if you're going to pretend to know what you're talking about, you should know what you're talking about.

I think it's a good thing that a person as to willingly opt-in to data collection.

It's really that simple.

FlashMobOfOne , to Technology in Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week
@FlashMobOfOne@beehaw.org avatar

False.

They sold data from Brave search, which you don't have to use. (and I don't.)

Also, the crypto thing is also opt-in. You don't have to use it either.

It works better than Firefox, especially if your aim is blocking ads.

Brave's native adblock works better than anything else I've tried.

Give Brave a look, folks.

It's friday.

I made it to the gym and feel glorious. I'm on Day 4 of being a primary Linux user and it feels nice to know that I'm digitally flipping Microsoft the bird.
