@GossiTheDog i tried for years to be involved with defcon and be part of the community. It attracts the worst people. Even the “good guys” are overly egotistical and unwelcoming despite their claims otherwise and the people there who cosplay as neurodivergent just to be cool.

@arstechnica I would sell my beloved Nissan and drive literally anything else. I would drive a Prius over something linked to Musk. I would drive a Chinese knockoff Prius that runs off AA batteries.

Thinking of Aaron Swartz today & I’m stuck on this photo - he & OpenAI CEO Sam Altman (both circled) each scraped 1000s of docs but one did it to make the knowledge free for all while the other did it to make $$$$ through probabilistic plagiarism. The US DOJ only came after one of them & the other is feted by tech bros and executives.

Thank you Aaron for so much, for RSS, for Markdown, for Creative Commons and more. I’m sorry our society failed you.

So tomorrow, if you stand with us and haven’t voted yet, I encourage, indeed implore you to do so. It’s a red alert moment, all crew to their battle stations. Help us win this fight, which is the same fight as ages past, but reimagined for 2024. Be a part of the winning side of history.

@fesshole did you ever think to tell your wife? She might be into that… I think there’s some running thing on here about “just tell your spouse”?
