Cory Doctorow spoke at the 39C3 on 28 Dec ’25. There, he described a way to finally escape the US-controlled, enshittified internet — by means that D. J. Trump accidentally opened access to.
‘Virtually every government ministry, every major corporation, every small business, every household in the world have locked themselves into a US-based, cloud-based service.’
‘So this is the third bloc in the disenshittification army: not just digital rights hippies like me; not just entrepreneurs and economic development wonks rubbing their hands together at the thought of transforming American trillions into European billions; but also the national security hawks who are 100% justified in their extreme concern about their country’s reliance on American platforms that have been shown to be totally unreliable.’
A brilliant, encouraging speech, worth every one of its 61 minutes. Thank you @pluralistic
Via @_elena and @DataKnightmare, thank you, too.

A crucial point for people who still Hold Out against Covid:
If your employer wants to be an asshole about Covid (they do), point them at these guidelines. Let them think about how they'd explain to a Court that they don't think they need these and don't want their employee to follow them.
Get their HR dep't to think about it. Maybe ask their fucking lawyer.
Because there's no way. No way. NO way that any employer in Canada would like to see this gone over in the presence of a judge.

qui erano anni che non si vedeva un bel gelo d'inverno, l'anno scorso ai primi di gennaio c'erano le gemme... 🫤
Del 1985 mi ricordo che avevo un paio di scarponcini che mi piacevano tantissimo e mio papà mi portava in giro per i boschi con la neve e abbiamo trovato la sorgente di un torrente gelato che faceva le cascate di ghiaccio giù da un dirupo.

@wollman @dan @ricci in my house the antennas didn't really work. you could go into the one closet that had a big dowel rod connected to the antenna in the attic and spin it around, but it didn't help. you could put tin foil on the rabbit ears and that didn't help either. we finally got cable like a year or two before I moved out in 1990.
