Old Fucking Punk @lwriemen@librem.one

there is no solution to the fascist international that doesn't start with stopping the massive redistribution of wealth and land to a small elite

but stopping it is not enough, it must be followed by reversing that redistribution of land and wealth, to flow from the small elite to everyone else

and this isn't unrealistic

whats unrealistic is burning the planet to build an AI god, to ask it how to save the planet. not only is it unrealistic is deeply anti-human

Crime-infested Trump regime welcomes criminals -- of the right sort -- to America.

Kentucky, for goodness' sake.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The Kentucky Supreme Court ruled Thursday that a measure establishing public funding for charter schools is unconstitutional, affirming that state funds “are for common schools and for nothing else.”

The state’s high court ruled the “Constitution as it stands is clear that it does not permit funneling public education funds outside the common public school system,” Justice Michelle M. Keller wrote in a unanimous opinion.

TL;DR: AI keeps getting massive investment despite not working as promised. This is because AI isn't really a technology solution, but instead a way for existing power structures to maintain control as the old world order falls apart. It makes the problems it claims to solve *worse* rather than better.

The alternative is "decomputing": less tech, instead of more; slower, not faster; tools built around collective care rather than automation.

Instead of asking how to power bigger data centres, we should ask who should control society's energy and water in the first place.
