Tech Bros weren't drafted into the fascist coup, they volunteered.

Delete windows, get a non google, non apple phone, drop twitter, delete Facebook, install linux, use blockers.

You may have ignored tech bro spying and control before, but now your life and family and country is at stake.

Ray Dalio's replies in this video are a nice antidote to #techbro fantasies about #AI (b/c it won't suddenly make the illiterate super productive), "longevity" (b/c people won't suddenly want to work well into their nineties), #bitcoin (b/c it's a speculative market nobody understands), etc. Plus, there's a brief moment of recognition that optimizing for what technology promises is not what we should be optimizing for. The contrast with the host is priceless. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yq0HeO31Ks4

A great argument for setting aside our preconceived notions about AI.

I had this very conversation with an honest-to-god #Techbro a while back, telling an anecdote about a guy in line at a store who, when asked "How are you today?" responded with an "I'm doing great!" and I was like...really?

We don't need another mindfulness retreat, folks. We need to take action.

Quite right too!
Don't want any speculative ass-hats buying up empty properties, doing them up, and then immediately renting them to more #TechBro twats!
Live in what you buy you thieving scum!

Anduril, Rheinmetall partner to build military drones for Europe. - Anyone else following the life and times of Trump-loving, California #TechBro Palmer Luckey and his disruptive, upstart #defense company #Anduril? He’s a fascinating, and somewhat scary fellow - despite, or maybe because of his rebelliousness and un conformity. He’s currently giving legacy #DefenseContracting firms like Boeing, Northrup and General Dynamics fits - winning lucrative defense contracts from under their upturned noses. It would be kinda entertaining if we weren’t talking about the future of #warfare and the advent of autonomous #AI weapons. #Military #EU #Europe #drones #DroneWar #DroneWarfare #UAV #TechBros

@SoLSec Talk to Sam Altman and his #techbro friends. He will tell you that it only needs some drops of water for every query a user enters. Trust him. #not

Might be better to single out the ‘snake oil’ sales pitch we are subjected to by the #TechBro mob. They are the ones sowing fear and distrust in #LLMs capacity to ‘help out’ by pushing their shit show on every devices they can get their hands on, harvesting capital while the hype is ingested, heedless of societal impact.

Thinking of going back to an abacus…

Silicon Valley's overlords are back at it, plotting to turn San Francisco into a tech bro #dystopia with extra kale 🥬 and fewer social services 🙄. Because who needs diversity and art when you can have a city governed by venture capitalists' AI overlords? 🤖💸

#ThoughtProvoker :blobhyperthink:

We rightfully revile Silicon Valley style techbroism as we take moral higher standpoints, stick to our values.

Yet in our total rejection of #techbro culture, do we fail to learn from it? SV outperforms #FOSS under #hypercapitalism. #BigTech is winning. We must improve our fitness formula to catch up.

Is where SV #culture differs that folks from across the globe totally dare to unleash creativity? While fedi sees ideas usually followed with techies-impl-talk?

Welcome. There us no algorithm putting your posts into eyes.

Engagement on Mastodon is by hashtags. Make new hashtags, find well.used ones.

After typing a # Mastodon will the you the number of users for the hashtag.

For example if you type - #usp - Mastodon will say 1.9k under highlight meaning almost two thousand recent posts with rhe US politics hashtag "#uspoli"

🤖 Ah, yet another tech bro claiming they've achieved the holy grail of perfect #codebase memory with their #AI. 🚀 Spoiler: it's just a glorified search tool with a sprinkle of #buzzwords, and no, it won't write your code for you. 💻👻

Boohoo, #techbro fascists. Cry more.

#stocks #FailedTrumpEconomy #Broligarchs

I have long thought that #Musk would end up being the sacrificial #Techbro, there is a large #Trumpist faction who are deeply worried about the #Techbros, throwing #Musk to them is a useful distraction, which won’t impact Thiel & co.

Le truc avec les dominants de toutes sortes (racistes, bourgeois, capitalistes, mascu, tech-bro, libertariens) c'est qu'ils ne peuvent pas s'empêcher de se la jouer. Alors qu'ils ne font que de la merde :
"Looks like the other 20% is used for bullshit generation." 😂 🤣

Carole Cadwalladr - Broligarchs, AI, and a Techno-Authoritarian Surveillance State | The Daily Show

“I think what is happening in America is they are building a techno-authoritarian surveillance state.” Carole Cadwalladr, the award-winning journalist behind the Substack newsletter “How to Survive the Broligarchy,” talks to Jon Stewart about how the U.S. government ignored the huge wake-up call that was the Cambridge Analytica-Facebook data breach scandal – a story Cadwalladr broke and which resulted in no legislative protections for citizens’ private data. She warns about the unregulated dangers that data-mining and AI pose to individual privacy and freedom, and what people and institutions can do to push back on big tech’s authoritarian agenda.
