I run Mint on an old laptop as a second computer that I can jump onto when my microsoft machine eventually stops working with that OS. I also use it as a linux training tool (tinkering with Wine64 atm). So far, I’m very happy with the Linux Mint distro.

Getting free of #TechBro software is an ongoing tasks. I am a few days away from migrating my blog away from WordPress and onto @shlee ‘s enhance.net. Still have a Gmail account I need to get out of - that‘s ongoing too。

So much fun…

#Substack bragging about their new $100 million investment from the #TechBro VC’s and how that will enable them to democratize publishing and do more online community building. Uh-huh. They took big $$ from previous investor Andreessen, who based on his own utterances appears to be a racist fascist. I’m personally not confident, as a previous contributor to the site, that being beholden to right-wing investors is a good thing - on any level. It sure didn’t work out with #SocialMedia did it? Now, more of the same in the online #DigitalPublishing space. Looks like #enshittification to me.

Omfg I couldn't even get to the midway point of this article before I had so much vomit in my mouth I had to bail. Jmfc. I've got vertigo from all the tech bro horse shit. Please end either me or that shit.

Ah, yes, another tech bro's fever dream of sentient TPS reports 🤖✨. Apparently, we're all just one GitHub Copilot away from #Skynet, but don't worry—there's an "Advanced Security" feature to protect us from our own bad decisions 🛡️. Just remember to toggle that navigation menu before the #AI takes control of your sandwich maker. 🍞🤖

Most of them remember that one, @bram, but they fail to consider that “the default” is often itself garbage.

Too many implementors, whether #techbro or not, will unthinkingly decide “I don't want to make a political decision so I'll go with the default from my culture”. My nerd friends, *that is a political decision*.

Almost 600 people have signed an open letter to...Sequoia Capital after one of its partners, Shaun Maguire, posted [blatantly racist crap] against the Muslim Democratic mayoral candidate in New York City.

Maguire, a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump, posted on X over the weekend that Zohran Mamdani, who won the Democratic primary last month, “comes from a culture that lies about everything” and is out to advance “his Islamist agenda.”

Good news! You can instead use our Windoze™️ ystem which, granted, will throw ads at you every 15 seconds, oh and send all your details to a gazillion advertisers, and also won't run on any older hardware, but at least you don't need to know anything useful.
