In the 2000s we would've had at least 100 janky but very emotionally satisfying "CEO assassin simulator" Flash games in the Newgrounds portal by now.

All jokes aside it's really fucked up to see so many people on here celebrating murder. No one here is the judge of who deserves to live or die. That's the job of the AI algorithm the insurance company designed to maximise profits on your health and no one else

If you're a Spotify user who is finding the microgenre & geodata of your annual "Wrapped" to be less substantial than usual, there's a reason why.

A year ago, Spotify laid off most of its employees who worked on genre classification, including folks like data alchemist @glennmcdonald.bsky.social.

The world’s richest 1% have more wealth than the bottom 95% put together, according to Oxfam.

There is no moral justification for this extraordinary level of inequality.

It's distorting politics, rigging our markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people.

Not everything, just the global north.

The problem is everything.

"It's not a fair fight and we shouldn't be fighting fair. We need counter indoctrination, we need counter propaganda."

Running a SmartTV on wifi instead of ethernet is as stupid and inefficient as trying to run it on a battery instead of an AC outlet.

Ha sido por intervención del INAI que víctimas de la guerra sucia de los años 70 o de la desaparición de normalistas de Ayotzinapa, entre otros, lograron acceder a información que algunas autoridades les negaban.

De ese tamaño es el derecho que se está vulnerando con la desaparición del Instituto.

El desmantelamiento del Estado nunca va a venir del mismo Estado. Si éste elimina algo, normalmente es para fortalecer a alguien: a sí mismo o a privados. Se reacomodan fuerzas o presupuesto. Las únicas reducciones reales son a su fuerza opresora, logradas por luchas y movimientos sociales.
