Elon Musk is an egregious example of the dangers posed by obscenely wealthy men who court fascism because it promises to enhance their wealth and give them unchecked power over others.
But behind him lies a whole corporate structure, particularly in the world of broligarchy, which now has frightening ability (and determination) to break democracy.

You can tell he’s taking it very seriously!

Yesterday I was awarded a plaque celebrating my 25 year service with God's Pantry Food Bank.
(Technically it is now 25.46 years)
It has been a blessing and honour to serve with the #FoodBank in assisting our neighbours obtain needed food.
It remains the only job that I have truly loved, but absolutely wish did not exist.

Côté récursif, il a la capacité à interroger les serveurs plus haut dans l’arborescence lorsqu’il n’a pas la réponse. J’ai bon ? Merci d’avance!
Par contre, il ne connait rien aux URL (le DNS existait bien avant le Web !) Il ne travaille qu'avec des noms de domaine. Et, de toute façon, dire que « le DNS sert à trouver les adresses IP » est une grossière simplification.

*shakes fist*
Gand, c'est l'endroit où j'avais peur d'être piéton dans une ville de cyclistes (j'étais dans le centre ville : presque pas de trottoirs, et je me faisais sonner par tous les vélos parce que moi, pauvre visiteur de la semaine, j'étais sur le chemin, même en rasant les murs).
C'est aussi une super jolie ville. :)
A cette période, vu le monde, je pense que les piétons gagnent.
Mais oui, je sais pas si tu as vu l'immense parking à vélos dans le centre, c'est impressionnant

Secondo i media tedeschi, pare che il medico saudita arrestato per l'attentato di ieri al mercato di natale di #magdeburgo non fosse un islamista ma un sostenitore dell'AFD.

La synthèse de l’activité annuelle concernant Flus, l’état de ses finances, les pistes pour 2025 et mon ressenti des 5 années à travailler dessus ?
C’est tout dans cet article récapitulatif : flus.fr/carnet/bilan-2024.html

"Help me, Open Source, you're my only hope!" 🤖
Embodied's $800 kids' robot Moxie was facing certain doom, but the company is now working to liberate it through open-source. From bricked to freed - that's what I call a plot twist! Community-powered robot resurrection FTW.

Israeli military experts: The recent barrage of Houthi missiles from #Yemen revealed serious security gaps in #Israeli air defense systems. The missile launched from #Yemen may have come via an undetectable path, or the warhead on the missile may be changing its path and speed, which does not allow it to be intercepted.

And it's just these economic elites. It's also the large number of Americans whose information base is so limited that they cannot see the danger these elites pose — to those very citizens enabling them.

in reply to William Lindsey • • •The deeply embedded cultural belief, which is absolutely wrong-headed, that super-rich men are superior, more intelligent, more productive is a big part of the problem here. Until it's challenged and corrected, we'll continue seeing many of us voting for pseudo-working class champions who are the very opposite of champions of working people.

in reply to William Lindsey • • •And, of course, the Supreme Court which, in its current iteration, exists primarily to serve the needs and interests of super-rich men as they seek to control (and rob) the rest of us is another huge part of the problem here.
As are so-called "people of faith" who bless and promote the rapacity of out-of-control capitalism….

in reply to William Lindsey • • •As a person of faith, supposedly following the example of Jesus Christ, I can't figure out how anyone else could call themselves a Christian and behave as they do, grovelling before the rich. Quite a bit of what Christ supposedly said condemned the rich.
Not only are these grovelers the opposite of the champions of working people, they're the opposite of who we are told to be - as Christians.
