I choose to privately self-host open source AI models and stuff on Linux. It’s almost like technology is a tool and corps are the ones fucking things up. Hmmm, imagine that.

I’m so fucking tired…

Guess I’ll delete my PayPal account.

If consent mattered, governments and corporations all around the world wouldn’t be pushing to expand the global surveillance apparatus.

Is this just another Tuesday now? Fuck me.

Yay, crimes against humanity!

Yahoo is just Bing, like most search engines.

That’s a lot of effort just to play HuniePop

I spent too much time with corpo brain rot to give linux a chance on desktop and realize it’s how I’d always imagined proper computing would be. It changed my outlook on the world when I finally did and it’s liberating (much libre. Very wow). Glad to see more and more people catching on to the possibility of a better future.

I can hear Nikola Tesla rolling over in his grave

Also Arch is far less functional than windows. I switched back.

I tried Linux from scratch one time and found it less functional than Windows so I switched back to Windows. Why would Stallman do this to me

Definitely the signs of a healthy civilization

World’s most popular search engine, video platform, mobile OS, browser engine, email provider, map provider, shall I go on? Search results at this point are just becoming an astrix.

They’re trying to suck up and present as much data as possible so people never have to leave Google’s services. They want to be the internet. If you enabled people to be independent, private, decentralized, and open, then Google would be in trouble because suddenly individuals and communities would have all the power and data, not some corp that’s hellbent on wasting your lifespan and brain space with ads or whatever other garbage decision they make on Tuesday to make their line go up.

It’s not going to get better. I nuked 10 and switched to Linux permanently around the Windows 11 launch. My only regret is not switching sooner, like around Windows 8 times.

Why go to Starbucks when my milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard? They’re better than yours.

There’s a pattern of belief among the rich and powerful that is basically like, “people don’t actually know what they want. They think they do but what they actually want is different, even if they don’t recognize it.” When they say “this is what you want” they think they’re giving us the thing we actually want. They believe what they’re saying.

I find that to be equal parts fascinating and terrifying.
