    If Microslop went away one day, it would only improve my quality of life.

        Please not Palantir! Who will use WiFi to reconstruct a collection of 3D models of me pooping?

      Quick! Send them the coordinates of all those datacenters so they can avoid them!

    Since America and Israel attacked Iranian Economic Interests when they bombed oil producing facilities, it’s entirelly fair for Iran to respond in kind.

    What if Iran ends up breaking the backs of corporate America? As an American, I’m not against that…

    American here. Can someone start a go fund me for Iran, on the condition that participants are allowed to attend an exclusive event for the live tar and feathering of Zuck the Cuck and Peter Theil? We could probably raise more money than the tech bros have.

      Iran just might save humanity.

    I want this war to end as soon as possible, but is this a surprise?

    They’re taking on hundreds of millions from the Pentagon, they are military contractors.

    I do not think bombing data centers will result in more than sporadic regional service disruptions though. Data will just get routed through other regions and increase latency. That’s what the internet was invented for and AWS + Google run multi zone clouds.

    It’s yet to be seen if Iranian hackers can deal any real damage to these companies.

    • Lydia_K@lemmy.world ⁨19⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      The reality is that these multi region “clouds” are not nearly as resilient as they seem, and applications that have built on top of then even less so.

        I’m far from an expert, but it seems like if one cloud node goes down, pay hackers to slam everything with bot traffic and the system is brought to its knees.

      They’ve already done damage to a us company. Check out Stryker and the stock price. 2 days of no production worldwide.

        I hadn’t heard about this

    Well, didnt musk and suckerberg get enlisted in the military for some bs reason for pentagon access?

    source
    • frongt@lemmy.zip ⁨21⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Not them, four other C-suites: www.npr.org/2025/07/03/…/1a-army-07-03-2025

      But I haven’t heard anything else about it. They wouldn’t need it for any access, either, civilians are granted access for various things all the time.
