    @bluberrycookie ma dai! Suggeriscimi qualcosa da ascoltare, va a finire che poi mi piace e Spotify diventerà la mia nuova sibilla.Scherzi a parte sono curiosa sul serio.

    Over 40 years, we were collectively told to give tax cuts to rich people.And we were told that if we did that, wealth would trickle down and everyone would be better off.Over 40 years, pretty much everything got cut to fund these tax cuts.Schools. Hospitals. Public housing. Public transport. Universities. Roads projects. Mental health services. Welfare payments.People literally went homeless or starved, so rich people could get tax cuts.Because the wealth would trickle down.Eventually the eroding of public goods caused social dislocation.So governments further cut those public goods to fund more police and prisons. To continue giving tax cuts to rich people.But they said the wealth would trickle down.Eventually the climate started changing because of the amount of toxic fossil fuel pollution in the atmosphere.So governments chose to keep the tax cuts rather than fund infrastructure to reduce emissions.(Many of those billionaires getting tax cuts made their money selling toxic fossil fuels.)And as the oceans and atmosphere warmed, the bushfires, droughts, hurricanes, cyclones, floods, and droughts got worse.But they said the wealth would trickle down.Eventually people were getting pissed off at the dire state of the world.The rich misdirected that anger at immigrants!And First Nations!And trans people!And neurodivergent people!Anyone but the billionaires who got the tax cuts.So governments chose to keep the tax cuts. (For the rich. Everyone else got new tariff taxes.)But they said the wealth would trickle down.So did the wealth trickle down?Well...A group of billionaires saw this kinda cool tech demo.It predicted the next pixel of an image, based on the colour patterns of every image on the internet.It also predicted the next word in a sentence, based on an analysis of every piece of writing on the internet.The rich decided that this clearly showed that a sentient computer was just around the corner.The problem was these tech demos needed servers with a lot of GPUs to work.So the rich took all the money they got from those tax cuts.And they bought GPUs.Millions and millions and millions and millions of GPUs.All the tax cuts? All the underfunded schools? All the draconian welfare cuts? All the public housing shortages? The delays in funding clean energy.In the end, it didn't trickle down.And instead of all the public goods it could have bought......We'll be left with millions and millions and millions of GPUs in a landfill.#ChatGPT #Claude #AI #LLM #capitalism #socialism #business #politics #Nvidia

    Giusto per non dimenticare che a fare da sostenitori a Trump non sono solo i piccoli complottisti da tastiera ma le stesse Big Tech e la Disney.

    "Question. For many years, you’ve been trying to get U.S. technology companies to process the data of European citizens according to EU standards. Is that possible with Trump in the White House?Answer. A legal system has to be stable precisely in situations where you have a crazy president. If everyone were nice and friendly, we wouldn’t need laws. A big issue is how much the whole data economy has become part of this trade war. One of the only things that Europe can retaliate [against] is going to be the digital industry. It’s one of the things where [Americans] make shitloads of money. It’s the financial industry, digital industry… and that’s about it.The [EU] Commission just fined Meta and Apple… and the former responded with a very Trumpian press release, saying, “Oh, this is a tariff.” You broke the law and you knew you were doing it, so now you can’t just say it’s a tariff. It’s like someone driving their Porsche at 180 miles an hour and, when they get fined, they say, “Oh, you just hate rich people.”Q. Is the European Commission right to fine two tech giants in the middle of a tariff war?A. The EC is taking things slowly, because it doesn’t want to be the first to throw a stone. But at some point, you have to enforce your law. We must address the issue of technological dependence. In the U.S., there’s even been talk of American companies not offering their services in Greenland and Denmark. It’s crazy, because then no one would trust those companies again… but we also thought no one would ever start a trade war."https://english.elpais.com/technology/2025-09-13/max-schrems-jurist-the-promise-of-the-cloud-was-that-everything-would-be-much-cheaper-but-it-turns-out-that-it-functions-as-a-monopoly.html#EU #GDPR #Privacy #DataProtection #Cloud #CloudComputing #BigTech #DigitalSovereignty #USA
