  1. So… Green Geeks Dot Com… How do you justify calling yourself "eco-friendly hosting" when you offer an "AI Website Builder" and "AI-Powered Content Creation"? 🧐

    Like — you ALMOST had my business, but thankfully I read the whole screen. (OTOH, is there a hosting company that DOESN’T offer AI shit now?!)

  3. Republicans have had remarkable success mobilizing resentment against school teachers, or auto workers (and not, significantly, against the school administrators or auto industry managers who actually cause the problems) for their #supposedly #bloated #wages and #benefits.
    It's as if they are being told
    ‘but you get to teach children! Or make cars! You get to have #real #jobs! And on top of that you have the nerve to also expect middle-class pensions and health care?’

    If someone had designed a work regime perfectly suited to maintaining the #power of #finance #capital, it's hard to see how they could have done a better job.
    Real, productive workers are relentlessly squeezed and exploited.
    The remainder are divided between a terrorised stratum of the, universally reviled, unemployed and a larger stratum who are basically paid to do nothing, in positions designed to make them identify with the perspectives and sensibilities of the ruling class (managers, administrators, etc.)
    —and particularly its financial avatars
    —but, at the same time, foster a simmering resentment against anyone whose work has clear and undeniable social value.

    Clearly, the system was never consciously designed.
    It emerged from almost a century of trial and error.
    But it is the only explanation for why, despite our technological capacities, we are not all working 3–4 hour days.

  4. So, in case anyone is wondering, last night #tmobile pushed an update to some of its #HomeInternet devices which rendered them unable to connect to the internet.
    Lucky Me, I'm one of those customers.
    Supposedly their engineers are working on a solution... #Supposedly.
    Guess I get to wait and see.
    Meanwhile, tethering my desktop to my cellphone so I can get some work done...
