There’s been some talk of possible money laundering I saw on some threads in other Lemmy communities recently. I suppose that’s possible. We may never know.

I haven’t once said anyone was wrong. What they said is immaterial to what I was originally talking about. I was pointing critique/concerns/feelings towards the present day tech industry as a whole.

I kinda expect the guys who are investing in something they hope to see a positive return on to try to calm everyone down. That’s why I don’t give a shit what either of them said; its predictable and they don’t like the internal disruption. It costs company time/money money to put out that fire. Their priorities dont align with the staff.

My comment was aimed at the tech industry as a whole.

Let’s call it what it is in tech right now; it’s a supply chain attack against the whole industry. We’re being told to grab a bowl of this shit stew of venture capital, solidified grifts, and xenophobia with a side of Elon styled political activism.

These fascists have bought, bullied, or got backing from fellow fascists to coopt the F/OSS community with sums of money not commonly used in this space. Elon bought a whole social media platform to craft it into a fascist/Nazi hellscape, strictly to sway public opinion.

These guys are taking it even further; the very tools and means of production are being setup as a deeper rot in tech.

The same fuckheads in DHH’s orbit are only a few contacts away from Elon himself. We developers of all stripes need to move our projects off of corpo services. Self host your repo, partner up with like minded devs, make software for the people who need it.

And Clippy 2.0… I mean, Copilot

Hello, would you be interested in an exciting career as a writer at Wall Street Journal?

Pre-coffee vibes

Nexus 5 with CopperheadOS . it was such a solid combo in terms of speed and lack of corporate bloatware. Oh, and the vibration mechanism needs to be brought back.

“enlightening” is mighty generous

I hope these former employees, and the people in their lives, all do their absolute best to refuse to support Microslop every chance they get. Death by a thousand cuts adds up over time.

Secret smut stash in the woods is about to be a thing again.

We can send them off to ZorinOS as their first diatro. It’s like Linux on training wheels lol

As a longtime Linux-only user, I love how M$ is driving people over to a new OS. But, with increased publicity and adoption makes it a growing target for hackers.

Does an absolute lack of support, interest, and/or acknowledgement of this display of bravado count towards “waiting”? If so, I’ll happily keep waiting.

That’s just it, he posted this dribble on his LinkedIn; it’s where “professionals” can vaguepost about dissatisfaction and anger without sounding mad as hell.

He needs another job, so he can’t go apeshit. Wish he would though… that’d be fun to read lol

Hey, I think you’re pretty darn nifty.

Meanwhile, the fanboys outside who can’t get in…

I bet you’ve been itching to drop that clever pun out for quite some time lol
