My other take on getting laid of is: it's homophobic to fire a gay person right at the end of pride month. #fuckmicrosoft

UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese now also names Microsoft among 48 corps aiding the genocide. Based on the reporting from earlier this year but perhaps lends credence beyond BDS's (and my own) claim that Microsoft is complicit.

AP article headline discussing Microsoft providing AI to Israel β€œfor war but not to harm people in Gaza” something totally normal and possible to achieve

AP article headline discussing Microsoft providing AI to Israel β€œfor war but not to harm people in Gaza” something totally normal and possible to achieve

don’t worry everybody, Microsoft had to lay off 9,000 people today so they could literally give 100 million more dollars in AI funding to Israel

Microsoft confirm they've supplied AI tech to the Israeli military for use in Gaza, following BDS Xbox boycott Microsoft have finally spoken out about reports that they have supplied tech for the Israeli military's attack on Gaza, after calls for a boycott of Xbox games.

I hate to post this today, with all the news, but the genocide goes before all. Microsoft confirms it is supporting the genocide with AI tech. Israel never does anything but hurt Palestinians in Gaza, so "it's not used to harm Palestinians" is bullshit.

Microsoft is about to lay off another 9,000 workers.

This news follows two waves of layoffs in May and June, where Microsoft fired more than 6,000 employees.

The company made $88 billion in profits last year.

A live-action Elden Ring movie from A24 and Alex Garland is in the works It's real: Garland is writing and directing it, and George RR Martin is involved.

Does anyone want this? The thing I find so interesting about Elden Ring is the way it deliberately obscures player understanding of a cohesive lore and narrative. Even with this director, I expect the translation to film will lose that magic.

Making my website from scratch is one of the best ideas I've ever had. Truly a joy. I want to turn the cursor into something fun. Do they still make sites dedicated entirely to gif cursors??
