I am cheering so fucking hard for cyber warfare at this point holy shit. Someone please blow up the internet already it has produced nothing of value

Imagine if we would’ve spent all the resources for computer processors into funding irl tools like high speed rail and efficient transportation systems. Like holy shit we really fucked up, I spent a few days unplugged and everything that people value about the internet can be boiled down to just another circus

      Everything about computational tech is turning me into a-guy.

      Admittedly, technology is one of the few thingsamerikkka does well in, but all that talent is wasted on Silicon Valley: techbros have made me hate the words ‘synergy’, ‘innovation’, ‘disruption’, and ‘wheelhouse’. Those four words should not receive 1st amendment protection.

        technology is one of the few things does well in

        Because they were first and bullied and dominated their way to the top via stolen talent of immigrants from the Global South and the need for advanced machines in the Cold War. There was that brief period where all the technology was new and was being developed in universities by students and researchers. Then corpos came in with NDAs and EULAs and that’s where we are now.
