Lots of people will be happier the day Peter Thiel dies… He’s disliked in the same range as Musk, without having anywhere near the public presence.

A great system until you smoke a bit of green plastic.
DarkCloud@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump preparing large-scale cancellation of federal funding for California, sources say311·2 days agoSo Americans need to switch it off and on again. Gather up new founding fathers and mothers, write up a new constitution and declaration of independence - write up documents for a new federation between states…
Create a back up United States. Declare the old one null and void. Stop interacting with the old one. Start interacting with the new one.
Call all this something benign sounding. Try not to go to war about it. But yeah, you all need to switch this shit off and on again.
I’m just fucking with ya, I’m old. Walkmans were a thing when I was young, phasing out portable boom boxes that used large non-rechargable D cell batteries… All LEDs were red back then, because it was the only color available. The internet hadn’t been popularised yet, and “yo” was a cool new way to say hello.

Also, are those two circles the display? That’s a pretty cool design. I really like old technology.
What’s the long black cable coming off it?

… you’d be risking ending up in a foreign prison. Better to just stay away.
He’s fishing with his rod.

… and if America starts funding Russia against Ukraine… And Europe is funding Ukraine, then you have a proxy war of America against Europe.
That’s what I mean by war with Europe.
DarkCloud@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Trump Announces Russia Will Strike Back at Ukraine After ‘Good Conversation’ With PutinEnglish3·4 days agoDoes he want a war with Europe? Because this is how you get a war with Europe.
Slorp was so much better before they changed their name to Bonto. Only young people prefer Bonto, and they’re idiots.
Bonto killed Slorp, Bonto is the only reason it shutdown.
I’m the gum on the carpet.

I just don’t think the dude who keeps posting bikini related archie comics is a bot… Seems like a very human thing to be happening. My robot senses tell me this is exactly the type of shit humans be doing… Beep boop, beep.
DarkCloud@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•MIT bans class president from graduation commencement after pro-Palestinian speech3·8 days agoMost big colleges have helped evict and deport people on studen visas. They cooperate and are complicit.
I’m betting it wouldn’t be difficult to find links between MITs research and development labs and weapons and technologies companies involved in Gaza.
Societies are sometimes like big interconnected machines, large parts become complicit in denial, repression, and destruction.
Edit: yep, as expected:
Since at least 2015, MIT laboratories have received millions of dollars from the Israeli Ministry of Defense for projects to develop algorithms that help drone swarms to better pursue escaping targets; to improve underwater surveillance technology; and support military aircraft evade missiles. Two of these sponsorships were renewed since October 7th, 2023, while one came up for renewal in December 2024. Second, MIT maintains institutional collaborations through the ILP, LGO, CSAIL, and MIT Energy Initiative programs with companies that sell vast amounts of weapons to Israel. These include Elbit Systems, Israel’s largest military contractor, as well as Maersk, Lockheed Martin, and Caterpillar. These collaborations grant genocide profiteers privileged access to MIT talent and expertise.
P.S That drone swarm technology is part of why 83% of American doctors who have provided care in Gaza, have reported treating children for being shot in the head. Source: NPR’s The American Life.
Agrivar bot, at it again. Worst kind of accuser bot.
I tend to vote for the Australian Greens party. They never seem to win the US elections though.
