This is just really embarrassing for these guys. Your intellectual hero is an amphetamine casualty from the Britpop years. It would be less ridiculous to be queuing up for a lecture by Ginger Spice.

Note big pharma prefers genetics as the marketed ‘cause’ of ‘disease' in its subscription business model practices to develop lifelong prescribed drug products,minimises environment as cause that push human limits to injury that can be healed through prevention,short term drug use products #biorisks

Just in case there were any doubts about where Angus Taylor will take the Liberals.

His Chief of Staff Sam Riordan will be coming back to the Liberal Party fold after a stint working for Australian Energy Producers (the lobby group of big oil & gas).

I remember when I lived in Detroit in the 60's / 70's and they were providing food for school kids and running other programs to help kids in poverty. The newspapers always vilified them, but they did fabulous work.

Oh, so suddenly you care about Mental Health in NSW after 2 patients escape, Chris Minns? But only so far as it goes to keeping people with Mental Health issues away from the public?
If you'd bothered to give a shit about it before it took tragic deaths, maybe this could have been avoided.

Dennis nedry jurrasic park "see nobody cares" meme reads Hey everybody, this guy still posts on X! See? Everyone is horrified and disappointed. They feel it speaks directly to your values.

Your regular reminder that Palantir started out as a way to expose sex workers to police violence, then expanded to allow cops to spy on anyone they pointed at while barfing out the word "gang".

Fascists *created* Palantir, but useful idiots approved of everything done to grow it.

photograph from the 80's of the wrestler Sting wearing a Gold's Gym shirt and sunglasses, leaning against a shelf in a bookstore and positively cheesing at an open copy of The Far Side Gallery 2, a collection of Far Side Cartoons.

what if i told you, through the power of forensic analysis, we are closer than ever to knowing the exact Far Side cartoon that is making Sting smile in this iconic photo. 🧵 👇

in 2017 a popular twitter game was to type a partial phrase then see what your phone auto-completes it with.

this proved so popular that it is now the only business model in the US.

Are you sure it was him and not just a thumb someone drew glasses on?

White people spent the entire Middle Ages killing each other over territory, and now we wanna pretend to have some kind of unifying identity and values besides “killing brown people instead”

Elon Musk Didn’t Want His Latest Deposition Released. Here It Is. Musk is being sued for falsely suggesting a 22-year-old Jewish man was part of a neo-Nazi brawl.

Elon Musk was deposed last month over his role in promoting a false conspiracy theory that a 22-year-old Jewish man participated in a neo-Nazi brawl.

Musk tried to keep the deposition from going public, and perhaps for good reason: It did not go well for him.

This is kind of like a party flyer for an event held on the second circle of Hell

the "left" also broadly advocated for open access community owned gigabit fiber networks while the right coddled monopoly access to the detriment of progress and affordability for four decades

It's like the left is fem-coded or something. The idea was obviously bogus until it proved out, then it was the right's idea all along. Most women have seen this play.

I fucking hate liberals and leftists who go along with this. I hate them more than I do fascists. Fascists are the very lowest of scum. I expect nothing but the worst from them. I hold liberals and leftists to a much higher standard.

4) surveillance capitalism, data mining, privacy violation technology

5) statistical inference and modeling

6) patent medicine, disinfo, and other forms of grifty scam tech

7) Multi-level marketing schemes and more straightforward ponzi schemes

1) mainframes, now rebranded as "the cloud!" Or Software As Service

2) offshoring and outsourcing, with a strong emphasis on piecework and the erosion of employment protections

3) automation with ane eye to deskilling and breaking segments of the labour force perceived as restless...

The left tried for decades to pass green energy subsidies, passed them, the subsidies worked, and now literally the entire planet's electricity grid is going to convert to solar+battery. It just doesn't feel like "tech" because it mostly produces kinda boring blue collar jobs instead of billionaires
