Thank you for addressing the only point on this list which shows any promise - a renewed commitment to Trust Busting. I have a similar take on technology - new industries are nice, but without some serious push, each is going to take time t

But listen - someone has to babysit the datacenter, just like taking out the trash, or fixing people's plumbing. When even low level retail job listings demand A Burning Passion!!!!!11oneoneeleven for the terrible job? They're

Thats interesting. Most non-mainstream media makes you dive through the 501-C##'s papers, ICANN whois records, etc to find out whose voice you're hearing. And then you gotta dig like a shameless conspiracy theorist to find out wha

This new product is being pushed as a "revolution" that, by the subtext of the sales pitch, is supposed to "solve all your cybersecurity problems." Sorry, that defense doesnt hold in this case.

Note that aws runs on the Xen hypervisor, which has a new critical security hole pop up reliably every six months. Taking matters into our own hands becomes an option.

Extensions get to modify the same about:config in FF as the firefox internal settings. Some extensions dont work after a year of being undeveloped, because the API changes. Is this really a bad thing? Opensource software uses patching as a

You sound like someone who has never experienced poverty. Meanwhile, the original prompt of the inciting content has... Two days' hotel stay of savings. That's what this is about. The lack of meaning, the alienation after being to

That sounds like a nice hippy colony you had there. My experience was different. Winter kills people. Summer kills people. Have your shelter from the elements planned, or you wont make it. The Homeless Shelter doesnt have the resources to h

Communication? Sure. Decentralized works well enough. Diaspora? As far as privatizing the physical infrastructure: your hardware should be yours. Anything past that should be common carrier/ISP. Need an alternative? Good luck. Decentra

Anyone else think this smells like explorers passing through, noticing some odd savages on a blue planet, and then trying to discretely edge away faster?

When we know that these so-called "influencers" are bought and paid for? It really reduces their effectiveness. Now that we know it happens, having plausible deniability will only spread a culture of distrust on social media sit

Are you sure? Because ChromeOS is just a Gentoo fork where google replaced the package manager to support their binaries instead. Programs running in memory just stay running, even if you update the files that are those programs. This is

I think the post is referring to some idea of "glamour" or the lucrative nature of a rapidly emerging field. Meanwhile, both demand that the employee spend all day telling a computer what to do.

How about getting his workers off of public assistance? That should be a few drops in the bathtub of his wealth. But he "wants to help the poor". I call bull on it until he helps his own employees.

I think "adventured" shows you what we're dealing with. There is no respect for the fact that some members of our society continue to enjoy certain advantages. When you're the one who recieves such, this is subtle. Telli
