data centres _already_ get water, energy, shelter before humans.

bsky.app/profile/symb...
Really need people to meditate on this,

as well as the 1,000 acre "data centres", costing $100s billion, that give shelter, heat, cooling, power, healthcare to absolutely useless computers

while tens of millions of PEOPLE starve, go without housing and healthcare in US and Canada alone
When I grow up I hope to as respected as car park ticket machines. With their shiny new glass n polished chrome houses that we build for them. @tomflood.bsky.social

At least the results are unlimitedly worse

And you also aren't growing seniority and capability and experience in your workforce because you got rid of your actual workforce

yeah because he doesn't want to be judged on
deals with fascist states,
fossil fuel maximalism,
selling off Canadian assets,
privatisation,
deregulation,
surveillance,
austerity and service cuts,
domestic human rights and respect for First Nations,
or mysteriously ballooning war spending
Mark Carney said we may judge him on fuel ⛽️ and food 🍎 prices. CBC checks in, and measures how he is doing: #cdnpoli

that's PRECISELY what it is: kayfabe

bsky.app/profile/symb...
that cartoon perfectly represents how the Canadian media works for Trump's agenda by amplifying Carney's bullshit

the kayfabe trade war is a smokescreen for merging policy, militaries, everything &it will be signed eventually, the worst clauses will stay, as with every other 'free trade agreement'

Well done Canada.

Between Carney, Ford and the rest, you've successfully outlawed hope.

Fuck capitalism and fuck all its soldiers in government.

that's why the 'ai' fascists are trying to pulp all books. they're the competition (and they teach facts).
You may not be able afford to host much of a library—this is another consequence of decades of austere and classist policy—but at a minimum you're going to need a printed dictionary.
And we will have to fight for full and secure libraries—not just for their books. Kids need 3rd places more than ever

Canada has been smashed up under successively more brutal versions of Reagan since Reagan, nothing has reversed this, and now we have THIS:

Although to be fair, Canada pathetically pretended Guiado was legitimate too

"the Trudeau government threw their wholehearted support behind a US-backed plan to declare an opposition politician, Juan Guiadó, “Interim President” of Venezuela"

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau meets with Juan Guaidó, Interim President of Venezuela
The two leaders discussed the importance of a united international approach to resolving the crisis in Venezuela.

If your building has this level of commitment to a stonecarved seal I think that should basically mean it's a post office for 1000 years, renewable, not a fucking Value Village whatever that is

Yes this WAS A POST OFFICE when I moved here

A Russian drone slammed into a busy railway platform in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro Thursday, killing at least 14 people in what President Volodymyr Zelensky called a "horrific" attack that demands action by Kyiv's allies.

it's not just that.

all the circumstances around /needing/ the adapter are also Apple's fault, and it's a systemic grinding bad thing

I've tried every way to avoid having to update MacOS and it looks like there is no viable workaround.

Today's wasted hours were on much newer hardware, but again, Sonoma OS: Macbook Pro M2—

mongodb-community-7 needs node 26, which uses some nouveau C++ fuckery (simdutf) that can't build w Sonoma's clang; there's no workaround; you have to upgrade MacOS.

SOL if your machine won't run clang 19 guff
I complain about software obsolescence because it truly is bullshit. My current situation is typical.

I need PHP 8.4.x. This depends (Homebrew) on Python 3.15. CPython decided (improbably) that they now need TCO in the compiler → means clang > 16.0.0 → means a MacOS update from Sonoma to Sequoia…
