0·2 年前If a billionaire is in actual trouble, he’s in China. US would have bailed out Evergrande.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If a person from 1700 asked you your job, would they understand your answer, and if not, how would you explain it to them?
0·2 年前We made an automaton clerk. It has neither arms nor body, but it works all day translating physician’s documents, so they may be stored with uniformity in a library that has neither shelves nor paper.

Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•ExxonMobil CEO blames climate crisis on the public, stirring outrage6·2 年前The animal industries have their own lobbying and disinformation campaigns. The pro-corporate media environment is an inextricable part of capitalist society. Their CEOs and those of Exxon et al are all basically saying “we’re doing what we’re permitted to do, it’s your job to reign us in for any social good whatsoever”. Any rational actor in a society that permits this will do this if given the opportunity. They’re products of their environment. Sometimes they’ll get ratioed on X, and agree to some small concession, a mere unconscious twitch of the power of the people causing multibillion $ companies to yelp in terror.

You can’t expect a trillion dollar private company to do anything but maximize profits any way they can get away with. It’s in the interest of the public to overthrow capitalism and the responsibility falls on us to understand this and do this. ExxonMobil exists with the consent of the masses.
I skimmed it. I don’t need convincing that NYT are lying hacks. It’s pretty small potatoes imo compared to their usual shenanigans https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_New_York_Times_controversies
I thought by the headline they were talking about this https://theintercept.com/2024/02/28/new-york-times-anat-schwartz-october-7/
Usually NYT can be found with their lips on the metaphorical ring of the neoliberal western order, so if they’re not full-throated in support of one of its champions, that’s a little interesting but not very.
they can toe the fascist line.

TLDR they’re somehow not kissing Biden’s ass enough for Salon, no mention of leaks or fabricated stories

World News@lemmy.ml•Why is Biden blocking the cheapest, most popular EVs in the world?
0·2 年前Not surprised, considering the equivalent tariffs on the import of solar modules under Biden, Trump and Obama.

0·2 年前Sometimes, somewhat.

0·2 年前You wanna go for start-ups then. Most bigger and medium-sized companies have centrally-managed security where they wanna push updates and such to all computers or there’s some corporate spyware everyone’s gotta run or they’ve got everyone on M$ Office etc etc. Odds are a place that lets you use a linux laptop is going to be reluctant to buy you one and invite you to use your own. Macbooks aren’t so bad, if they let you have sudo, lots of places use those.
I use dawn foaming dish soap dispensers, with non-dawn soap. Suds on demand.
