so my conclusion from reading this article is where i was when we started, and it basically says what i was saying: we don’t have enough evidence to conclude one direction or another what was running in those yandex data centers and what impacts we should expect to be seeing

has it? i hadn’t seen that. can you send me an example of how it was disproven?

this is the context people are talking about. i can’t say for certain if i think know it’s true. all i can really say for sure is that i’ve seen a lot less pro-fascist activity online (which is also backed by the article you originally posted about)

data centers house computers that can be rented by potential users for multitenancy use. it is extremely popular to run distributed workloads, like bot farms, on this hardware. all of the major cloud providers, AWS, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, IBM, GoDaddy, Rackspace, Alibaba, Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Yandex, Baidu, are hosting massive numbers of bots that could be employed to do a multitude of things.

Basically, yes, but also not quite no. Market products offer you an initial baseline experience. Aftermarket products offer you an enhanced “better than the average” experience. Postmarket (or postconsumer) products are a de-growth mechanism by which you extend the life of your initial purchase beyond its planned obsolescence. There used to be a really great paper on creating circular economies that accounted for how in the reduce-reuse-recycle cycle our capitalist society has placed all emphasis on recycle when that’s supposed to be the third order option behind reduce (consumption) and reuse (by extending the life of the products you already own) but I can’t seem to find it anymore, but that paper was where the PostmarketOS name came from

yooo! while i wait for mobile linux to be realistic for my device this is a win

and that he carries a lot of weight in as the chairperson of one of the main actors?

not everyone you dont like is a Nazi

they are when what i don’t like about them is they’re a nazi, which is the case with DHH

legal systems in the British tradition have this tendency…

there’s a long history of cops making petty abuses of the power over others they’re granted, and of those additional powers not making their communities any safer. to me this headline reads as “most predictable thing imaginable has come to pass”

here’s my advice:

1. dismantle the surveillance state
2. abolish the institution of prison
3. abolish the police

and just in case anyone doesn’t know, this is what he’s done all through his real estate career. he was well known for playing games of chicken with potential business partners by coming to a quasi sense of agreement and then reneg. the only thing that kept him afloat there for a while were his ties to organized crime

for real! this should be about how we are on the precipice of letting people with debilitating conditions enjoy their lives and spend time with people they care about instead of immediately saying “just think of the implications for shareholder value!”
