This headline offers a well-deserved burn to NYT, but the piece is also great journalism, with interesting Cold War signals intelligence context in links/ embedded videos Really loving coverage by @dropsitenews.com www.dropsitenews.com/p/trump-nyt-...
Because it's totally true, I like to say that the opposite of consent is tech company. With the persistence of a bratty child and the ethos of a rapist, Google is basically an addict, trying to prolong its high from the "AI" bubble that it created by endlessly forcing bullshit down our throats.
I started turning my computer on for work 50 minutes ago. And I only use Windows/ #Microsoft because I am forced to use programs not made for working well on Linux. This same computer dual boots into Debian in 3 mins. Microsoft should pay for productivity loss.

Same guy responsible for both the steaming pile of shit of an opinion piece in NYT and the active silencing of voices locally ithacavoice.org/2025/04/corn... www.nytimes.com/2025/03/31/o...
The rapist-in-chief and all his yes men want as many children living in poverty as possible.
Because I was raised in America, I understand that everyone who lived on the planet Alderaan was a terrorist who needed to be destroyed and anyone who has follow up questions or believes otherwise is also a terrorist.
Hulu just emailed me to "clarify" that, like the rest of the economy, they too are full of shit.
