- Comment on Microsoft says it provided AI to Israeli military for war but denies use to harm people in Gaza 1 day ago:
Microsoft is the new IBM helping bring genocide to a country near you.
- Comment on We poisoned the whole planet so our eggs wouldn't stick to the pan 🙃 2 days ago:
They can make Teflon without the forever chemicals. They choose to make it the way they do because it is cheap and easy to scale. Rather than develop better solutions that don’t poison us they choose easy money and are rewarded for it.

Beans!? How dare you!
- Comment on Some Reddit users just love to disagree, new AI-powered troll-spotting algorithm finds 3 days ago:
I just call it out immediately and shut people down. I spend countless hours researching and reading and I don’t have time for devil’s advocates anymore. Here on Lemmy I will just block them and in real life I just tell them homie I don’t play that.
- Comment on Is it normal for people to ask where you are from online? 4 days ago:
Having lived in the days of IRC and BBS you did not tell people your ASL and knew anyone that asked was probably a pervert.
- Comment on give me 5 1 week ago:
Free dog hair in every order!
- Comment on Nintendo Anti-Piracy Policy Device Lock Update Warns of Console Bricks for Unauthorized Use 1 week ago:
What makes love truly special has little to do with duration. Sometimes we need to set something free and remember the love we had and the joy it brang. We can always remember those good times, they can’t take that away. It is time to let Nintendo go now.
- Comment on Airlines Are Selling Your Data to ICE 1 week ago:
In a country without privacy protections every citizen’s personal life is up for sale to anyone interested. It is disgusting.
- Comment on Airlines Are Selling Your Data to ICE 1 week ago:
Now Google, Microsoft, and Meta are doing this. This is what we should be talking about.
- Comment on Microsoft getting nervous about Europe's tech independence 2 weeks ago:
Sure, the cloud is a cancer on computing. It may make some sense for large corporations but for small and medium business it takes away their agency. IT staff should be developed and in house coding should be the norm.
Allowing cloud and AI to run everything is a recipe for disaster.
- Comment on Congress Moving Forward On Unconstitutional Take It Down Act 2 weeks ago:
Oh I like that. Schrodinger’s box with presidential immunity in it.
- Comment on In the most delicious irony imaginable, the notorious early 2000s 'You wouldn't steal a car' anti-piracy campaign may have used an 'illegal' font 3 weeks ago:
Watching it now, I am pretty sure I know most the history but there is always more to learn. Thanks!

Yo, that is my sequence of 0’s and 1’s is how ridiculous it all is in the digital era. Not to mention I have to pay for and maintain the hardware to even access the content.
I also have a hard time understanding the self imposed artificial scarcity we live with. Copying work/art/ideas/science is literally the point of humanity. We are truly living in a perverse time where corporations steal our culture and spoon feed it back to us for profit and control.

I love our spiderman meme culture where everyone is pointing their fingers at each other accusing them of stealing their idea/song/art/etc.
I can never understand how people carry so much water for corporations who could care less about them. We are supposed to rearrange our entire society around their revenue streams.
- Comment on Elon Musk's Social Platform X has filed a lawsuit agains Minnesota, challenging a law banning political deepfakes 3 weeks ago:
Musk is holding the Democrats smoking gun!
- Comment on Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years 3 weeks ago:
Taking this a tad bit personally I see. I was just commenting on the conversation. I don’t speak for any community.
Your definitely a bit of wanker to be honest.
- Comment on Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years 3 weeks ago:
There is a philosophical difference using Open Source software. To compare it to religion is pretty shitty honestly, even if you find it amusing. Linux is not faith it is logic.
- Comment on Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years 3 weeks ago:
Honestly, I am getting a bit tired of Windows (which is pretty much adware garbage at this point) being the only mainstream OS for laptops and desktops.
I am also extremely tired of half-assed status quo defenders like you that always say, “people just aren’t ready”. This is clearly a disingenuous argument born out of a ignorance and apathy.
Lemmy clearly has a Linux slant just as Reddit did before all the Winblows people did exactly what you are doing now. So respectfully get bent.
I find your comments particularly hollow on regards to UI changes as Microsoft is the most guilty party ever for changing the interface and forcing people to relearn everything (hello ribbon bar, Windows 8, Windows 11 lack of start bar configurations, and of course constantly changing where settings are located).
The only cult that is proselytizing is Windows bootlicking losers. The fact that Linux users are passionate about the superiority of owning your software and not giving your money and personal information to a corporation that will sell you out in a second is just common sense.
- Comment on RFK JR just told us Elon Musk can't use the toilet unassisted 4 weeks ago:
because he can’t use the bathroom unassisted.
- Comment on Trump admin proposes redefining 'harm' to endangered animals 4 weeks ago:
I know, let’s try every bat shit idea the far right has ever come up with.
- Comment on Microsoft starts final Windows Recall testing before rollout 4 weeks ago:
Imagine paying for a surveillance machine that takes pictures and records everything you do ready to regurgitate it to anyone who asks. The fact that anyone sees this as anything other than dystopian is a bridge to far for me.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ 5 weeks ago:
The world would be better off without IP law, but I doubt these bozos know that includes trademark.
- Comment on Smartphones and computers are now exempt from Trump’s latest tariffs 5 weeks ago:
I bought Trump coins so please untariff my favorite product.
Clownonomics by the clownministration.
- Comment on Ex-Meta exec tells Senate Zuck dangled US citizen data in bid to enter China 5 weeks ago:
First we find out Microsoft is participating in genocide and now we find out Facebook has betrayed the US for more money. Can these corporations sink any lower?
- Comment on Panic! on the trade floor 5 weeks ago:
The boom bust cycle is a feature of how we do capitalism in the US. It is related to an unsustainable growth mindset.
- Comment on Microsoft employee disrupts 50th anniversary and calls AI boss ‘war profiteer’ 1 month ago:
Microsoft will sell US citizens out in a second when the government tells them to. They will use their AI to round us up without batting an eye. They can not be trusted anymore.
Microsoft is now a threat to democracy and human existence. They are already working against us with governments. This is the tipping point that no one will hear about.
There is too much at stake and they are too big to fail. The government will viciously take down anyone spreading the truth. Continuing to support Microsoft is now a death sentence to democracy.

Sharpie pens are the best!
- Comment on The wildest details in the Facebook memoir Meta is trying to bury 1 month ago:
Only concentrate on the illegal stuff we are doing right now and forget about all the illegal stuff we did in the past.
- Comment on Why aren't there mass protests in the USA? 1 month ago:
Now is the time to push for new privacy laws and limits on advertising and the use of public relations in media. The path of the US is an illustration on what not to do.
