I always found it interesting how we went from garage tinkerers and counter culture aligned free and open software and hardware enthusiasts to big tech strangling democracy. Turns out, money (and by extension power) still corrupts as much as it ever has.

It really isn’t, but it got made to be by parties with vested interest in maintaining the oil and gas status quo.
Also, I realize this is probably a woooosh on my part.
You’re trying to add nuance so this will probably not go over well in this dumpster fire of a comment thread, but you are correct. The butt of the joke is the person asking the questions because they look like a creep/pervert/overly horny. This is a form of self-deprecating humor on part of the original commenter in the screenshot, but apparently the internet is still where humor goes to die.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Ontario purchases $28.9M private jet for Doug Ford’s ‘extensive travel’English
7·12 days agoBrave of you to assume it will be used for anything but personal leisure use. This is Doug Ford after all.
I’ll admit I was never a big techno, house, or other electronic music connoisseur so I’ll concede you’re probably right.
The video is absolutely a piece of absurdist art, but that track itself sounds very derivative of late 90s hardcore house music, and not in a particularly inspired way. Not my jam overall, but I guess I am also not the primary demographic for her art.

Who could’ve guessed that eschewing the US’s soft power they built up over decades for Russian style “might makes right” posturing and sabre rattling would not work? Trump is really speedrunning to “Chinese ultimatums” with this fiasco.
“Open sourced”, LOL. By that logic Microsoft is open source https://www.techradar.com/news/the-microsoft-source-code-breach-may-be-much-bigger-than-we-thought

7·28 days agoOh yeah, I know their backend didn’t get exposed but it’s still looking pretty bad on them when you consider their target customer profile is enterprise. Enterprises don’t do well with onboarding security liabilities, and having stuff like this happen will almost certainly result in prospective customers considering Anthropic’s competitors.

Technology@beehaw.org•Anthropic Accidentally Leaked Claude Code's Source—The Internet Is Keeping It ForeverEnglish
21·29 days agoFascinating look under the covers, and probably the worst thing that could’ve happened to a startup like Anthropic whose eggs are all in the Claude basket. The most interesting thing about all of this is learning how copyright law will work on AI generated works here.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Today in history: Ronald Reagan and the SS attempt to open a stuck car door.English
3·1 month agoMy bad on misabbreviating Super Sport, thanks for the correction. You are getting my point though, how did folks who actually fought the SS not feel weird driving a car labelled SS? I know I sure couldn’t without having some mixed feelings.

World News@lemmy.world•Trump threatens to destroy all of Iran’s power, oil and water facilities as ‘retribution’English
11·1 month agoYep, it’s just baffling how this cat that we backed further and further into the corner started acting out. Who could’ve seen that coming?

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Today in history: Ronald Reagan and the SS attempt to open a stuck car door.English
5·1 month agoYeah, it’s the same response I have to seeing it in other places too. Like for example American cars using the “SS” badging for their SuperSpeed variants of popular muscle car models. This goes back to like the sixtees too. Did none of the WW2 vets see an issue with that back then?

News@lemmy.world•New Evidence Corroborates Claims of Trump Sex Accuser, 13English
12·1 month agoThat was the point he jumped the shark for me. His Twitter takeover, constant placating of the right and efforts to get Trump re-elected had already pushed him from “edgelord memer and shitposter” to “alt-right nutcase”, but the salute immediately jumped him to “irredeemably evil monster”.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Tim Apple watching loyalists call map ads a feature:English
18·1 month agoThat’s not wrong, that’s working as expected. You didn’t think those companies paid Google to not advertise their business did you?
That’s a stretch. I don’t need to hate someone (including myself) to deem them less attractive or just not my type.
And I honestly think that’s what’s at play here - straight guys are into women and will judge their appearance differently from how they judge the appearance of other men.
Perhaps we don’t collectively look like we dress poorly and barely take care of ourselves to women, as they likely look at other aspects of our physical appearance than we do
Glad I am not the only one who thought of him right away.
I mean, the chiropractor is technically correct. You’ll say goodbye to a lot of things, including IBS.


Given the alternative at the time, he can hardly be blamed for not intentionally sinking the economy at the time.
I’m fairly certain the current success in recruiting trade partners and signing agreements with them that Carney is enjoying are a direct result of being forced into that position earlier and the Trudeau government using this wake-up call to start working on a backup strategy.
