One huge impact mass FOSS adoption would have is that there would be a lot less software and hardware churn. Commercial nature of proprietary technology is the main driver for constant upgrade cycles we see. Companies need to constantly sell products to stay in business, and this means you have to deprecate old software and hardware in order to sell new versions of the product.

They're sadists, so they like sadism. They enjoy making people suffer. They also enjoy making money and having sex.
So if there's something that will cause others to suffer, make them money, and get them aroused, they'll go for it no matter what laws they have to break.
Well....not that laws are binding us as a society any longer.

i have had a tremendously long break from client work, which is really nice in some ways but number is going way down 📉
checking what sort of dev jobs are available on the job boards it's not looking too great for human employment. i think it's going to continue imploding until AI basically does everything and no jobs even exist
the it'll be eat bug live in pod time
as AGI approaches then it'll just be shareholders, executives, boards of directors, and their AI agents
obviously there will have to be systemic changes cause on this trajectory the whole concept of a job will be obsolete, for the vast majority of human labor
my main client has basically been saying "Yea i have some updates for you to do" for like 6 months and we never do them. so it's an extremely minimal amount of system admin stuff that an AI agent could probably take over within a year or two.
don't get me wrong i am definitely taking advantage of this pause in work to deal with other stuff like getting moved onto my property (thus reducing expenses) but still it's rather disconcerting

So if you've installed Windows 11 recently, you're familiar with the very lengthy setup process where you can uncheck a lot of toggles to try and limit what the OS collects.
What the OS will collect is the following:
- Microsoft Store Logs
- Network data
- Hardware information
- Accessory data
- Application-related data
- Event metrics
You'll also send complete words that you typed or wrote, not just statistics. You'll also send speech recognition data, and activity history, so every document you opened, website you visited...
But that's just what Microsoft tells you about. Recently, a youtuber called "The PC Security channel" analysed a completely fresh Windows install, using Wireshark, and what they found was is that Windows makes a few connections to third parties it never really told you about.
THEIR VIDEO:
So what exactly can Microsoft do with all this data?
Well, they have more than enough to completely fingerprint your device, they can reliably tell what you use in terms of apps, and what type of content you watch, and they also basically can have a keylogger on your computer. And finally, Windows sends some data to third parties.
Fortunately, you can disable all the option stuff straight from the settings.You can go to the privacy and security options, and go into each category and disable everything there.
You can also completely disable the telemetry service. Just hit Windows + R, and in the run dialog, type services.msc. In there, look for something called "Connected user experiences and telemetry", double click that, and in the "General tab", you can set "startup type" to "disabled".
Apple talks a big game when it comes to privacy, but in the end, is it really true?
Out of the box, macOS sends to Apple your IP address, location, and some usage patterns, like all the apps you run, and when you run them. Other telemetry data, out of the box, includes browsing history, search history, crash data, performance and diagnostic data, location information, health information if you use that on an iPhone for example, all the info you entered in your AppleID, the device serial number, payment information, everything you bought using that Apple ID, and potentially your government ID.
Fortunately, macOS lets you disable virtually everything that's being collected. You can just head over to the Security and Privacy settings, and in analytics and improvements, uncheck everything.
Now, how about Linux? Well, Linux based operating systems, or at least desktop Linux distributions don't collect any data out of the box, with a few exceptions.
The first one is Ubuntu, who will collect telemetry data out of the box, with no personal information at all. It's just hardware data, but it could still be used to fingerprint your device. Canonical doesn't currently have any ad server that I know about, so they probably only really use this to know what their users actually use and focus their efforts on that, but if you're uncomfortable with that, you can disable it at install.
Some Ubuntu derivatives that use the same installer might also have that kind of telemetry. On top of that, you have the ability to turn some entirely optional telemetry on in KDE's settings; and GNOME also has a telemetry tool that you have to install manually.

I live in Chicago and this city feels so full of energy in the summer. There are constant festivals, events, people are hosting cookouts, everyone's outside. It feels like a constant party. You pay for it in the winter though.
I lived most of my life in South Carolina. Last year, I made the mistake of visiting SC in the summer. I had to say no to so many plans in Chicago and leave beautiful weather to visit the hottest, muggiest, no-wind-est place on earth. In Columbia, SC the pride festival is held in October because if it was held in June, people would just die. I told my friends and family that they visit me during the summer and I'll be around for the holidays.

I just created an account on the newly-launched social media platform UpScrolled.
First impression: clean, really easy to sign up to and get going. Format looks like a mix between Twitter and Instagram.
I like the core ideas behind this platform. It's based in Australia, with servers in Ireland. Created by Issam Hijazi, an Australian-Palestinian, and backed by Tech For Palestine incubator.
So, unlike Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky and Mastodon, Palestinians and Arabs will not constantly have to deal with shadowbans or suspension.
It promises to be activist, artist, and organiser friendly. Will be interesting to see how the community develops.

Just to be clear: Palestinians who refuse to “voluntarily” enter this concentration camp will be MURDERED if Israel decides with no proof or obligation to provide any proof.
Those inside the "most humanitarian concentraiton camp" will also be killed if Israel "think" they are Hamas or may be a danger to Israel any time in the future, even children since many IDF forces see Palestinian resistance as something in the bloodline of the resistance fighters.
That’s the plan. Stated openly. And people still insist with a straight face that this isn’t genocide.
And this is the country and the criminal regime the EU, US, Canada, Australia and the Arab league support, fund and protect!
