good morning fedi and death to america 💪 🔥

Gotta say, I think the obscurity of the BSDs may be better protection against corporate meddling than the licensing is. TBH, I don't think the licensing does anything with regard to corporate capture. Corporations will *always* capture whatever they can, if only to disadvantage the competition.

ho hum, doing some personal digital forensics -- what on earth is on this hard disk floating around my apartment living room??

salutations in crypto-anarchy, comrade!

Great rally tonight in Boorloo/Perth, in solidarity with the Palestinian people and the Global March on Gaza.

We demand sanctions on Israel, a rogue state that needs to be stopped before it forces its ‘allies’ into a regional war and potentially even a world war.

Sanctions now!

I have gone from "I like computers" to "I dont like computers" to "computers are at war with society and me personally"

Inside the ‘Dragon Age’ Debacle That Gutted EA’s BioWare Studio

The latest game in BioWare’s fantasy role-playing series went through ten years of development turmoil

bloomberg article by jason schreirer here:

my wife, who worked at BW during its DA:I crunch, has this response: "I think a big problem is that they haven’t changed with their audience and they haven’t changed their unsustainable work practices… they just keep doing the same shit and expecting the same results they had 10 years ago, when their audience is now 10 years older."

Love all youse fedi users out there!

love the pettiness of macos showing windows computers on the lan as old-ass crt monitors displaying a blue screen of death. need more of that energy in my linux

a macos "finder" window displaying the "network" resource, within which one computer on the lan is selected. as it is currently running windows, the icon displayed is an old heavy beige crt screen showing a typical blue screen of death. zoomed in, you can even make out the text, "windows. a fatal exception 0E has occurred... etc., etc., press any key to continue _"

A lovely little 8 bit computer with some simple online functions would be just... such a treat.

I wonder if you just could just build a simple portal to all the tildes for it, and took care of the connectivity with a lil ESP32 or something

Gotta remember to log into LambdaMOO sometime soon...

Is there a way to pay for a permanent account?

@vidak Hard to focus on tech these days…

Good night fedi 💞

Tech and politics are always on my mind

Not enough tech lately
