This is a huge opportunity. All of us Linux geeks now need to be on mainstream social media platforms and actively seek out and help everyone who expresses an interest in switching from Windows to Linux.

Just a celebration of using correct geographical names

Wobei Bandcamp als US-Plattform (leider) problematisch ist

Ich glaub die Downvotes kommen einfach, weil in dieser Community hier (auf lemmy.ml) die allermeisten Leute Englisch erwarten.

Mittlerweile wurde die Richterin wieder aus der Haft entlassen: https://apnews.com/live/donald-trump-news-updates-4-25-2025

Okay, right, then my comment may be wrong (insofar as companies with >750 million revenue are concerned) or at least it will become wrong once the OECD agreement is implemented. (This government page from 5 November 2024 states 12.5% on revenue from trading.) Good to know, thanks.

Well, that’s nice and all, but the losses that the Irish tax haven model costs the rest of the continent – which by and large is no less willing to provide aid to poorer countries – are orders of magnitude higher.

Zuck and Pinchai right now googling “Ursula von der Leyen inauguration fund”

Okay, there’s also this.

Elon today announced in a more concrete way that he will step back from DOGE, and more soon-ish than it was previously assumed, iirc.

Seriously, I was thinking about getting evaluated, and this gives me the chills. I will not be seeing an evaluation at this time.

A lot of people are probably going to make the same rational decision — which, of course, will make the number of issued diagnoses go down. These fuckers will most likely try to take that as evidence that their policies worked.

Well, shit. But at least there’s this:

It’s also far from clear that the tech industry will prove to be as hungry for fossil fuel power as some predict. First, advances in AI technology could drive energy consumption down. Concerns are emerging that the technology may not fully live up to the hype, at least from investors’ standpoints, with Alibaba Group chairman Joe Tsai telling a Hong Kong investment summit in March that data construction may have already reached “the beginning of some kind of bubble.” Plus, the Trump tariffs have injected extraordinary levels of uncertainty into global markets, leaving some experts wondering if the upheaval could derail an AI boom.

It really is a piece of pure beauty.

Too bad. I’ve now replaced the picture with another one.

Yeah that could be, shit. At first I thought this was Mad Magazine stuff or so.

Sicher, aber genau darum ist es eine gute Idee, auch zu wissen, wie die Hersteller von KI ticken und wohin die Reise noch so hingeht, wenn’s nach denen geht.

Ableist title.

Das Zitat ist von relativ weit drinnen im Artikel. Da ist der Kontext nicht Verbrenner-vs-Elektro, sondern ökologische Transformationsmaßnahmen die einen außerhalb der Arbeitszeit betreffen. Man denke an Wärmepumpen und sonstige Bauvorgaben, Tempolimits, “Klimakleber” etc. Habe jetzt im Post ein paar Absätze mehr zitiert, um den Kontext klarer werden zu lassen.

Nice! (Musste mich zurückhalten, direkt irgendwo “Was letzte preis ?” zu fragen.)
