  So, how’re those fascist policies working out for you, Britain?

  Which is unfortunately completely understandable. Sometimes I think Americans (and a few other notable polities) forget who owns their damn country. Despite what the bits stored on the SSD’s of their Swiss banks might otherwise indicate, it’s not the small handful of billionaires. It’s not the politicians either. It’s the people actually paying their taxes rather than dodging them.

  I firmly believe that when a significant proportion of 340 million individuals collectively decide something has to be done, then that thing will get done, one way or the other. Regrettably, the members of the American Aristocracy are really good at dividing and contouring the hoi polloi.

  How the fuck do these dim bulbs ever get this rich in the first place?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Tech Dreams of Putting Data Centers in Space⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Look, I’m all for rich leeches having less money, but I’d prefer it if we didn’t let them piss precious resources away on stupid shit when there’s real problems to be solved. How about just seizing some of their obscene wealth and build some solar farms, fund fusion research or build cheap housing for the homeless or something?

  Gods, why? Vacuum is the ultimate thermal insulator, so getting rid of waste heat is troublesome, launching large amounts of hardware into orbit isn’t exactly cheap, electronics will need additional EM / particle shielding and maintenance when something inevitable breaks or wears out might be a bit harder than usual.

  “All right ladies and gentlemen: This is deadly serious. I need you all to make suggestions for how we can make YouTube even worse. I know we’ve already picked the low hanging fruit. Our desktop experience is poorer than it’s ever been, user comments are horrendous, and you’ve all done great and terrible work, but… Now I need the really disastrous options so we can more smoothly become an integral part of the fascist machine of our new glorious owners.”

  I find “wanting to violate the the constitutional rights rights of every man woman and child in the country” to be grossly incompatible with being the Minister of “Justice”.

  Once again, to quote:

  Danmarks Riges Grundlov af 5. juni 1953 indskærper, at: ”Boligen er ukrænkelig. Husundersøgelse, beslaglæggelse og undersøgelse af breve og andre papirer samt brud på post-, telegraf- og telefonhemmeligheden må, hvor ingen lov hjemler en særegen undtagelse, alene ske efter en retskendelse” (§ 72).

  Grundlovsændringen i 1953 blev fulgt op af en ændring i Retsplejeloven, som trådte i kraft i juni 1954 og indskærper, at politiet som udgangspunkt skal fremvise dommerkendelse for at foretage indgreb i telefonhemmeligheden. Politiet har dog ret til at foretage aflytninger og få udleveret teleoplysninger uden kendelse, hvis det drejer sig om større statshensyn og øjemedet vil forspildes, hvis domstolenes tilsagn skal afventes. Men domstolene skal underrettes ved aflytningens begyndelse, hvorefter domstolene vurderer, om aflytningen kan fortsætte. Hvis dommerkendelsen ikke foreligger inden for 24 timer, skal aflytningen afbrydes. Når det ikke er til gene for sagen, skal den aflyttede også informeres om overvågningen efterfølgende.

  Aflytningen kan kun ske i forbindelse med efterforskning af forbrydelser med en strafferamme på seks år eller derover.

  This is not what I’m paying you for. Resign immediately.

  Now this is the kind of use case where machine learning not only makes sense but positively excels. Meanwhile in the west, we are busy wasting a veritable ocean of energy on building better echo chambers to assist the most intellectually vulnerable in really developing their budding psychoses and permanently undermining developers and artists.

  I didn’t really need additional evidence that business is increasingly divorcing itself from actual consumer needs, but here it is anyway.
