Reddit Refugee because Steve Huffman got Musk-pilled. Opinions are my own and boy do I have some.
- Comment on New Google Search Emoji Answer Feature to Replace All Those Copy and Paste Emoji Websites; You Will be Able to Copy the Code for Emojis With a Click. 2 hours ago:
does Google have their own list of emojis with corresponding descriptions
Betting they don’t. They don’t need to if they can successfully steal from other sites.

So…
Instead of sending you to the website in question and monetizing the creator thereof, GOOG has found yet another way to directly and blatantly steal the content from the creator.
Don’t be Evil is such a laugh-riot these days.
Fuck Google and everything that’s theirs.
- Comment on The US House's CAO informed congressional staffers that WhatsApp is now banned on their government devices as the app is deemed “a high-risk to users” 1 day ago:
Zuck can’t be too excited to be suddenly and harshly cut out of the Oval Office Data Pipeline…
- Comment on LLMs factor in unrelated information when recommending medical treatments 1 day ago:
large language model deployed to make treatment recommendations
What kind of irrational lunatic would seriously attempt to invoke currently available Counterfeit Cognizance to obtain a “treatment recommendation” for anything…???
FFS.
Anyone who would seems a supreme candidate for a Darwin Award.

Never heard of them…
Could that be part of the problem…?? 🤔
- Comment on In Militarizing Push, Russian School Children To Build Drones 3 days ago:
Russia will soon teach high school students how to build and fly drones, which have become a key weapon in the war between Moscow and Kyiv.
Russia last year launched a nationwide project called Unmanned Aerial Systems to promote both the domestic production of drones and preparation of drone pilots and other specialists starting with high school students.
Seems to remind me of Hitler Youth for some reason… 🤷♂️

- Comment on Reddit in talks to embrace Sam Altman’s iris-scanning Orb to verify users 4 days ago:
I will happily forego any/all social media (and never look back) rather than submit to such an idiotic, intrusive, perverse, and disgusting system.
🤦♀️ 🙄 🤡 🖕 💩
- Comment on [deleted] 4 days ago:
Products that don’t advertise can easily be better value.
This is exactly my reasoning in refusing to do business with service providers that (in my view) over-advertise (looking at you Geico, Progressive, United Health, Taco Bell, other major advertisers)…
Any service provider doing that much advertising is telling me 2 things with every ad: First, you already obviously have too much money and, Second, you obviously don’t need my money.
Fuck you and your “brand recognition”.

Wyden, Ocasio-Cortez Demand Answers from Palantir About Plans to Build IRS “Mega-Database” of American Citizens
Aaannd…
Just exactly what will fucking happen when Palantir tells y’all to fuck right off (with the backing of this attempt at an administration)???
Fuck all is exactly what will happen. 🤷♂️ 🤦♀️ 💩
- Comment on Matrix.org is Introducing Premium Accounts 1 week ago:
😂
Still need users. And folks who like/want/use the product enough to care to donate.
If neither is happening, you’re business model is failing. Profit or nonprofit.
🤷♂️
- Comment on Matrix.org is Introducing Premium Accounts 1 week ago:
We have been communicating on the lack of funds in the Foundation for a while now, the latest being here. And whilst we’ve been working hard to gather new members and are happy to see the number of logos increasing (thank you all for seeing the need for Matrix to stay independent and safe, and the value in supporting it!), none of the big players in the ecosystem have actually committed to one of the higher membership tiers, so we need to find other ways towards sustainability.
🤔
Sounds like that business plan isn’t working out like you hoped…
And/Or not enough users care to use your product.
🤷♂️
- Comment on Google’s test turns search results into an AI-generated podcast 1 week ago:
Oh, Google…
Just eviler and eviler every day. Not only robbing creators of any monitization via clicking on links but now just blatantly stealing their content for an even more efficient theft model.
FFS. I can’t fucking wait to complete my de-googling project and get you the absolute fuck completely out of my life.
I’ve developed a hatred for Google that actually rivals my hatred for Apple.

Palantir

- Comment on The hidden time bomb in the tax code that's fueling mass tech layoffs 1 week ago:
That’s what makes the politics of Section 174 so revealing. For all the rhetoric about bringing jobs back and making things in America, the first Trump administration’s major tax bill arguably helped accomplish the opposite.
What an utterly shocking turn of events. /s
Fucking MAGAt idiots.

- Comment on Musk's Neuralink raises fresh cash at $9 billion valuation, Semafor reports 3 weeks ago:
is the nazi muskrat spouting bullshit again?
While it’s most assuredly bullshit that he’s spouting, anyone that would accept such a procedure/device from the maker of the Swastikar and destroyer of SpaceX rockets deserves whatever outcome befalls them.
🤡 🤦♀️ 🖕 💩
- Comment on It’s Time To Go Back to Web 1.0 3 weeks ago:
Oh,
It’s not just advertising (and its commensurate tracking paradigm)…
Data mining for profit, SEO for profit, and pervasive Counterfeit Cognizance are all playing their part in ruining the Internet experience.
Perhaps all the above could be summed up by “Capitalist Greed”…??? 🤡 🖕
- Comment on Silicon Valley cities hit with request for residents' emails to train AI 4 weeks ago:
Well, that certainly won’t put a dent in folks willingness to send future Emails to their city gov’ts, now will it??
Fucking lunatic Counterfeit Cognizance Pushers… Fuck them all… 🤡 🙄 🖕 🖕

And, a personal note, I prefer the (to me, much more descriptive) term “Counterfeit Cognizance”. 🤷♂️

These are among the U.S.-sanctioned terrorists who appear to have paid, premium accounts on Elon Musk’s X, a new Tech Transparency Project investigation has found, raising questions about the platform’s dealings with individuals who have been deemed a threat to U.S. national security.
What? Elonazi Muskovite is failing to “properly” vet entities paying him for accounts?
Who’da thunk it? 🤦♀️ 🤷♂️ 🤡 🖕
- Comment on Still booting after all these years: The people stuck using ancient Windows computers 5 weeks ago:
😂 🤣
Similarly, my Dad ran his medical office on Win98 until he died (2011).
Of course, he had no support for OS or the medical office software other than himself (and me).
Had a supplier of inexpensive old machines/parts.
All cause he refused to pay the $5k required to upgrade the medical office software that ran on those machines. 🤷♂️

- Comment on Google's AI now listens to your English language phone conversations 5 weeks ago:
No, no, Fuck You, no!!
I will have no phone that employs “Counterfeit Conciousness” to listen to every fucking word of every fucking conversation leading to (among others):
- Further training
- Data retention somewhere (waiting to be hacked)
- Possible reports to LEO (or worse)
- …whatever else I can’t think of just now…
Fuck right off with this.
This solidifies for me I will never own a Pixel phone.
And, if this becomes ubiquitous in Android, I’ll have to rethink that, too.
Doesn’t mean I’ll necessarily go to iOS; more likely completely rethink having a phone at all.
Fuck Google entirely. Don’t be Evil my ass.
