  I just can't with #AI - I'm crying, I'm laughing, I ran #ArtCraft on #Linux and OH MY GOD it's so much better than the #Adobe suite! #VibeCoding is here to stay, and the idea that #OpenSource is supposed to ignore it is sort of -- stupid. Why would you hamstring yourself while the #SiliconValley Barons keep milking the AI cow? No. Seize the means of AI - as well as compute. But first: let's tank some monopolies. https://getartcraft.com/

  You know this continued backstabbing by the #US (and no, it's not solely #Trump - but also his enablers in congress and the senate) is the reason #Europe needs to rearm.

  Let's make it clear: #Russia has been meddling in elections and democracy for many years. But it's only thanks to #Ukraine how apparent it is. But not only that: they aggregate paranoia, chauvinism, misogyny, bigotry and other mental diseases. It begs the question: is it such a good idea to embrace platforms that are basically welcoming to this sort of social manipulation?

  The mass production of #food has one job: output calories. But #nutrients ? Nutrients become less of a priority and more a liability when it comes to profit margins. This grand old system is basically sucking the value out of food and putting it into the pockets of shareholders and investors. Welcome to the global food market. #Vegetables are now half as nutritious than 60 years ago.

  This is why I tell people to install strict ad blockers and not to use browsers that hamstring ad blockers, like #Chrome. Heck, if you want to go hardcore, just disabled JavaScript altogether. The point is that tracking via ads has long been part of surveillances state technology and people should be aware of this.

  When we talk about #corporate enforcers, we need to imbue the whole conversation with #surveillance which now includes #AI.

  RE: https://snabelen.no/@Mediablikk/117469496830484584 Kanskje NAMO kan være til stedet for å få noen av smulene mens jakten på patriot missiler skal sikre at ukrainere kan være litt tryggere denne vinteren. Men man undres om dette er ett sjakk trekk, med tanken på at det er så mange ukrainske flyktninger her til lands og hvor mye amerikanerne - vår hegemon, vår fyrste - har bidratt til at vår olje er høyt ettertraktet mens dagligvarer skyter opp i pris. Personlig ville eg sagt nei.

  From the heartless vampires that created the #CallOfDuty mines with the cursed souls of #BlackIsle, comes the final deathblow of #BioWare. Big game publishers have basically been mass murdering good studios for decades now, with cut corners, redesigns upon redesigns, and massive crunch, all at the behest of halfwit knuckle-dragging execs making decisions from what their dumbass nephews told them was a good idea.

  "You'll own nothing and like it", a sentiment wafting out of Silicon valley for decades, only to be repeated by that nitwit neoliberal Schwab to the world years later. The fact is that the #techfascists - i.e the #SiliconValleyBarons - are all trying to seize the means of computing so you can get it solely from them. #Xbox wants you to pay 24 to 40 cents per hour to stream games you already bought - Ars Technica https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2026/10/xbox-wants-you-to...

  The fact is the #datacenters are a liability. In all actuality most institutions, government bodies and even corporations should have redundancy across the map. Decentralising data centers should therefore be of national priority.

  Let me say something controversial: I think we can have a #digital #voting and #ballot system, but that much like the traditional paper ballot system, it must be decentralised and definitely not under the control of private interests. The obvious problem being the fact that #money has become the bridge between the separation of powers, the bridge between the legislative, executive and judicial powers.

  The argument against state run media comes in hot with the BBC doing a bit of reality altering. What's next? Change what candidates say, by using AI to retouch speeches and rebuttals? Or perhaps retouching images of decaying neighborhoods to improve optics? The BBC has historically been a great source for documentaries, news and even entertainment. But when the government is bought and paid for, this is what you get. https://www.leicester.news/bbc-edits-out-pride-pins-on-university-c...

  In comes @madthumbs@lemmy.world with the #SecurityThroughObscurity argument that the #SiliconValley barons have been promoting for decades now. But what he's suggesting isn't actually wrong. You should use a #Linux distro that is properly preconfigured and vetted by a community. This is why #Arch or #NixOS shouldn't be your first recommendation for newcomers. In fact, if we are to go by high security standards, your first distro should be an immutable one like #Bazzite or #Silverb...

  Day 2 with #GrapheneOS: #SiliconValley #propaganda goes hard. Even #Norwegian service providers try to tell you that "your phone is insecure". This is due to the lack of #GooglePlay and #GooglePlayProtect - which are glorified gatekeepers for the #Google monopoly. I'm still gonna two try though, because the idea of giving any American company that much control over my digital life is repugnant to me.

  You have to be kidding me. This is partly why #Norway should never join the #EU. Their courts are greenwashing private jets. Now that #Europe burns, the ultra rich get another pass to fill the skies with CO² - because it's such a "effective way to travel". It's time to talk about banning private jets altogether - at least in the countries that aren't shackled by Brussels.

  #Burnout is normalized in the #neoliberal race to the bottom. It's a societal design that capsizies society under the "designer state v manufacturing state" dichotomy.

  Reality is stranger than fiction - because you can't make this stuff up.

  Have you noticed how many more accounts have been shilling for #Putin lately? Even on the #fediverse. They say that Putin is not your enemy - but #European leaders.

  In a time of #disinformation, I need you to eat this like it's vegetables and fruits. The #HantaVirus is common, it has different genomes and is one of many common viruses. Also: the #CruiseShip industry needs to take a dive, because it is a net negative on society - let alone being a barge of germs, farts and spit shared between (statistically speaking) elderly immune compromised people.
