ExtremeDullard@lemmy.sdf.orgtoToday I learned@lemmy.ml•Today I learned: Epstein Island had an area of 28 ha
7·8 months agoNo but… Would you want to be known as the owner / inhabitant of Epstein Island? Would you enjoy staying there knowing its past?
The island doesn’t give a shit. But you and other people might.

7·8 months ago280000 square meters of prime real estate, with palm gardens, mountains and tropical climate.
and bad memories, bad reputation and generally bad juju.
If I owned the place, I’d sell it quick: I just don’t know how I could be there and enjoy it, knowing who was there and what they did.

17·8 months agoI once tried to record / replay my FIAT keyfob with my F0, and it did unlock the car once. Then I spend a bunch of money having the remote lock replaced.
I’d like more evidence that this works reliably before attempting the same thing again…

6·8 months agothe people running the show are *also* bumbling fucking morons.
The morons in and around the White House aren’t the ones running the show. They’re puppets, and the puppetmasters are the Heritage Foundation. And THEY are anything but morons.

Technology@beehaw.org•Citizen Lab director warns cyber industry about US authoritarian descent
22·8 months agodescent into a kind of fusion of tech and fascism
One of the defining traits of fascism is that the private sector is in cahoots with the government. In fact, that’s the root of the words fascism: fasces in Latin means bundle - the bundling of state and private interests.
Corporations have no principles and no morals: whatever will make them more money, they’ll ro-ro with. When it takes colluding with an authoritatian regime, they have no problems getting onboard.
The danger today compared to IBM helping the Nazis is of course that today’s computers are vastly more powerful than mechanical tabulators. This is going to turbocharge the dystopia orders of magnitudes.
And finally, people have been lulled into a false sense of security and convinced to give away a lot more personal information than they should’ve for the past 25 years - the “I have nothing to hide, why do I need privacy?” fallacy. Now they’re going to find out why they should have been careful. I almost want to say “I told you so” every day, having been called a paranoid crackpot for the past 25 years, but it’s so sad and so too late that it isn’t even anything to gloat about…

ExtremeDullard@lemmy.sdf.orgtoHacker News@lemmy.bestiver.se•Candidates say they'd rather risk staying unemployed than talk to another robotEnglish
13·8 months agoSame here. Luckily I’m old enough that I’ve never had to deal with this automated shit - and hopefully never will - and I’ve always managed to find a job without having to post my resume on LinkedIn or any other privacy-invading job listing site.
Fuck companies that make money out of people’s necessity to work - chiefly Microsoft, and now all the life-sucking AI companies slowly creeping into every workplaces.
And yeah, one thing is for sure: if your company finds it acceptable to interview potential employees with machines, it sure as hell isn’t a company I’d want to work for.
