You don’t need a formal conspiracy when interests converge. These people went to the same universities, they’re on the same boards of directors, they’re in the same country clubs, they have like interests, they don’t need to call a meeting, they know what’s good for them and they’re getting it."

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•When did Cory Doctorow stop thinking that Jeff Bezos was cool?
20·17 days agoIt probably has to do with the enshittification of Amazon, at least in part. Note how he praises the recommendation algorithm, while in a talk I recently saw he criticized how that same algorithm now pushes promoted products and Amazon knockoffs over what would be best for the customer.

I was already somewhat interested in Linux (as a long time Windows user) when I started studying Computer Science, mainly for it’s core philosophy of freedom and openness.
Given that most courses used Linux as the default OS I installed Ubuntu on my laptop to dual boot it with Windows, and began getting familiar with it.
Over the years I started using Linux more and more, making it my main OS, with Windows still installed for the few programs I couldn’t use otherwise. Over time this set of programs became smaller and smaller, until it was just games.
Last year I bought and assembled a new PC to replace my laptop for daily uses, and given the higher specs and better support (AMD GPU instead of Nvidia) I see no reason to have Windows on it at all. Everything I need runs perfectly fine there.
I use Arch, btw.

Europe@feddit.org•Meloni Weighs Overhaul of Italy’s Voting Laws to Help ReelectionEnglish
4·2 months agoSo, same shit as all electoral reforms in Italy ever. There are better ways (STV) but as long as people in power only care about being reelected with a majority we’ll always be stuck with these shitty systems.
There’s an interview with Keanu where he tells the story of how he explained the plot of Matrix to some child, who basically replied with “what does it matter if it’s real or not?”
