It’s very scary indeed, and add to that the “new” policy of “fuck the planet, let’s pollute” by one of the most polluting nations in the world.
Exactly. And may I add to your point the privatization of public communication by social media ( especially Instagram ). It’s becoming very hard to find information about your city public action without an account on Instagram; now to be a citizen is required to have an “social media id”.

I see various people commenting that while this guy paid 6.2M USD on a single banana, a lot of us are struggling to make ends meet. That’s exactly the point.

The way that the guitar in the background is hanging hurts my soul.
Google rolled out a retooled search engine that periodically puts AI-generated summaries over website links at the top of the results page; while also showing off a still-in-development AI assistant Astra that will be able to “see” and converse about things shown through a smartphone’s camera lens
What worries me the most is that this AI hype is coming strongly to the smartphone market too, and we don’t have something solid like Linux distributions to change to and be free

Well, just watch " The masked scammer " documentary and you’ll see how this can ( and definitely will ) go wrong. For summary, there’s this article on Wikipedia: Gilbert Chikli.
thank you so much. your response means a lot to me, and definitely helps me feel less burdened by the struggle 🥹
i’m just glad im aware of the issues and it’s not too late to take action and help myself
Bot spotted!
If you have suggestions of other free and cool magazines let me know. I really liked Nature (news) site, but recently they’ve put everything under a paywall.
