"A resistance fighter understands that technology must never be accepted as part of the natural order of things, that every technology— from an IQ test to an automobile to a television set to a computer — is a product of a particular economic and political context and carries with it a program, an agenda, and a philosophy that may or may not be life-enhancing and that therefore require scrutiny, criticism, and control. In short, a technological resistance fighter maintains an epistemological and psychic distance from any technology, so that it always appears somewhat strange, never inevitable, never natural."

– Neil Postman, from his book Technopoly (1993)

"It's so easy to slip into the habit of thinking that nothing will change, that our politicians will never fear us more than they love the money and power they get from catering to the Epstein class. I'm not denying that this is how they view the world today, but there was a time in living memory when it wasn't true. If it changed before, it can change again." - @pluralistic

Excellent article by Cory Doctorow (@pluralistic) about the state of "AI", how we got here, and how to be an effective "AI" critic.

AI companies will fail. We can salvage something from the wreckage

AI is asbestos in the walls of our tech society, stuffed there by monopolists run amok. A serious fight against it must strike at its roots

Inspired by the poem “Do not go gentle into that good night” by Dylan Thomas. The general consensus of the poem is that it is about being on the threshold of and not conceding to death.

How timely.

My niece showed up for work in Minneapolis and saw this sign on their front door. She said lots of businesses have these up in their windows.

Minneapolis continues to show us how it’s done. ✊🏻

We need to stand up in solidarity. Ask your employer if you can have a walk-out or protest day, and let the world know.

RE: hear-me.social/@Lacze/11593625…

The "brilliant" minds behind the new social network wsocial.eu forgot to grab related domain names, so I applaud the efforts of the creator of w-social.eu... encouraging people to be social and simply join the fediverse.

Fun fact: yesterday I almost registered wsocial.lol (1 Euro for the first year) and wsocial.wtf.

I guess if I see an article in mainstream media about wsocial.eu I may do it (if the domains are still available).

Journos, you should cover the fediverse!

I don't like the human world as it is today. But then I see these tiny green wonders (nobody of the a-holes destroying democracy, climate, and peace has an eye for) - and I know again: THIS is the world I want to fight for.
