@nprofile1q... I feel compelled to clarify that this goes beyond AI. As Doctorow puts it, overvalued "growth" stocks can basically print cash to buy any industry they want, but they would drop dead on the moment that investors stop believing that tech companies are going to keep growing.

The state is basically the only place left on earth where they can expand into where budgets are big enough to make an upwards dent in their balance. Hence their suddenly found obsession with defense, space...

@nprofile1q... It's incredible how the entire formerly anti-regulation fanboys have done a 180 to beg for state owned businesses. And by "incredible" I mean that we always knew they are full of shit.

@nprofile1q... Well that's some nerve coming to the fediverse to adverstise a cash-grab social network

- Built on a whim in five minutes and with such pauper decentralization that it only federated with ATproto months after launch
- Gaslighting journalists by pretending to be "the first" EU network and stealing credit for decades of grassroots work
- Lobbying government officials and institutions to join to use them as ransom to get citizens to follow
- That on top of that has gone closed source

@nprofile1q... i have just realized I have a neuron activation response for paragraph beginnings after the form of the milkshake duck meme

@nprofile1q... Otra vez con el miedo amarillo como en los 80. Yo creo que si los yankis tuvieran que ver en su televisor tantos anuncios de marcas extranjeras como los españoles vemos anuncios de marcas americanas, les daría un ictus.

@nprofile1q... Now it would be great if you also started reading what people think of genAI under the replies of your posts about the EU AI strategy, and took notice of the message.

@nprofile1q... Si, e o aluguer e a tecnificación tamén levan a relacionarse moito máis con xente doutros sítios. Este amigo por exemplo tiña alugado noutro concello e iba cambiando o gando de sitio por distintas razóns.

@nprofile1q... Teño un coñecido que me explicou como funciona o tema da PAC e, básicamente, hai unha subvención por cantas hectáreas teñas anotadas para a actividade. Por iso esta persoa aluga de bo grado prados baleiros aos veciños, xa que lle repercute positivamente. Entendo que, despois de andar todo o día coas hectáreas na cabeza discutindo estes temas coa xente, acabe sendo o primeiro no que pensan.

@nprofile1q... - José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero lost the presidency in 2011 mostly due to dissatisfaction among PSOE voters because of his giving in to orders to impose austerity measures against the financial crisis, mandated by USA and northern EU economic leaders and banks.

So, you see, Sanchez being this firm on this issue is very consistent with this context.

@nprofile1q... Some context may help our non es-pol familiarized friends:

Rightwing president José María Aznar joined Blair and Bush in the Irak war with 90% of the population against it and colossal protests in all Spanish cities

On March 11 2023 the biggest terrorist attack in Spain killed >200 people. It was a direct retaliation for Irak by islamists. Aznar made police and press publish false reports attributing it to basque separatists. On 14/3/03 Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero won the election.

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... Zed is very pro AI, in fact. As soon as I downloaded it from flathub (sic) to try it out, it threw a dialog box at my face with spam about the benefits of AI with zed integration. I uninstalled it immeditely and then washed my hands. Why the fuck would I want to have a non-microslop alternative to VSCode that supports the same things that I hate about microslop VSCode?
