Alphabet didn’t turn enough profit this quarter, so they had to make some difficult choices and cut their less used options

Wow things sure changed about Android roms! I still remember how difficult it was to try to simply install a rom through Knox

That seals the deal for me on rooting my pixel. I’ve been hesitant about rooting ever since I bricked an extra galaxy s3 and nearly bricked my (main device) Verizon galaxy s5

I’m excited to see them succeed. I love it when stuff is designed with function over form, and made practically. I’m a tall person, this is the only small electric vehicle I feel I could actually fit in

You mean the table that the US government built by gutting US manufacturing in the 90s?

Tech companies hate disabled people generally, considering one of the largest tech unions in the US had a rally about disability rights earlier today

You mean the people the maintain the biggest logistics network in the world? Not sure, but it sure as fuck is relevant to news about the company that hosts 25% of the internet.

Got it. You believe that the only thing relevant to technology is the things being made, but the people that make those things aren’t relevant. Let’s see how much tech news will come from those companies when the workers stop working.

Labor is inseparable from it’s fruits.

AWS hosts 25% of the internet. It doesn’t matter if you think it’s not tech related, the company is in tech and unions within tech is a rapidly growing movement. Next you’re going to say that workers protesting at Microsoft isn’t tech related.

Lawfare will not stop us.

So he’s destroying the WordPress empire over higher profits? He should ask unity how that went

What started all of this? I was hoping for some background in the article

The IME has been a source for targeted attacks in the past. Firmware is just really more code, and can be exploited in similar ways. It’s a legitimate and longstanding criticism of IME and AMD’s PSP from privacy advocates.

If only USB-IF would do their fucking job and create actual standardized names with standard features instead of shit like USB 3.2 Gen 2x2

The same way you organize anything. Start by talking to a couple trusted coworkers to form an organizing committee. All the members of the OC need to talk to coworkers, handle workplace drama, agitate for better conditions, educate people about unions, maintain systematic campaign tracking, and fight against the boss during their union busting campaign. When I worked remotely, it was as simple as sending a dm like this:

Hey, would you be able to talk over break? Some coworkers and I were discussing some issues and I wanted to hear your thoughts.

Unions are legal in the US. The labor movement is currently seeing a huge swell in new bargaining units across most unions

Unions generally don’t write or repeal laws, but a union contract can negotiate overtime pay where there isn’t any.

The meme doesn’t make sense to me either, but I can tell you that the person in the second panel is Michael Parenti, a highly regarded communist historian known for analyzing history through class struggle. The quote in the 3rd panel is a famous one from his lecture about the US War against Yugoslavia:

Africa is rich! Only it’s people are poor. There are still problems in Africa today, there are still outrageous things happening today. ‘“Building your own pharmaceutical factories in Sudan” where do you think you can get off where you think you can do that, when you should be buying from the multinational pharmaceutical.’

Take the case of India. India was a rich, advanced, developed country. Until the British went in 1800. Between 1800 and 1830 the Indian textile industry, which was outperforming the British textile industry, was dismantled and the great industrial centers were de-industrialized. The people were sent back out onto the land to grow cotton for the factories in Manchester and London. Between 1850 and 1900, the per capita income fell by 65%. So that poverty in the third world, that so called ‘underdevelopment’ … These countries are not underdeveloped, they were overexploited- they’re maldeveloped.

I became a socialist because I was an “essential employee” during the height of the pandemic. I was treated like shit by my company, the customers, and the government while they sung my praise. I watched my grandpa get good cancer treatment with the VA (shocker, I know, but it happens) while my sister and grandma had to fight insurance for cancer treatment.

We can’t make a perfect world, but we can make a better one. And it starts with a socialist economy.

Both the democratic party and the republican party are liberal parties. One of them got scratched.
