This is a very concise way to explain how we got from Bill Clinton to Donald Trump
By Cory Doctorow (GPG 0xBF3D9110957E5F4C)@doctorow.pluralistic.net · 3mo ago"Third Way" liberal politics involves *saying* things that working people love, but *doing* things that sociopathic plutocrats love. It works ...right up until voters notice that you're not *doing* the things. That realisation breeds cynicism and fury and paves the way for fascist strongmen. 2/
Cascadou is 21% off this week, and I am streaming the new gamemode called Freeswap Run. See me almost poop my pants in the midgame but finish with a very satisfying play in the final round 😅 store.steampowered.com/app/3842900/...

Fun fact: Today is also a great day to support your indie bookshop. (And not just because a certain online mega-retailer is having its annual sale, but because indie bookshops need our support all year long to thrive.)

En sak der det burde være opplagt å slippe å kjempe for å forsvare og bevare noe som kommer bankkundene til gode. Og jeg tenker på det hver eneste gang det skrives om rekordresultater for DNB, med tilhørende bonuser til ledelsen her. La politikerne får høre det, så de kanskje velger rett! 😡
Espen Klem@klem.social · 5mo agoDenne burde alle skrive under på som vil ha billigere og bedre banker: bevarkundeutbytte.no Grunnen til at bl.a. DNB vil ha ordningen vekk er vel at de lekker kunder til bankene med kundeutbytte og at de helst vil beholde alle pengene til bonuser til sjefene og utbytte til eierne.

Sparebanker kan i dag gi deler av overskuddet tilbake til kundene. Nå foreslås det å fjerne ordningen. Støtt oppropet!

Just a reminder that CFOs and other folks of their C-suite kind will say the most batshit loco thing to the people who create the products and services because there's no incentive for them to understand anything but their executive function. (JPG excerpt proffered by OP)
!["What ultimately broke me and my Blizzard career was I got called into the CFO's office and he sits me down and he says—he gives me a date which at the time was 2020 and was going to slip to 2021, but at the time it was 2020—and he said: 'Overwatch has to make [redacted] in 2020, and then every year after that it needs a recurring revenue of [redacted]' and then he says to me 'if it doesn't do [redacted] we're going to lay off 1,000 people, and that's going to be on you.' And that was the biggest fuck you moment I've had in my career, it felt surreal to be in that condition."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:e7q27mhqf2qsrwbiosowygxb/bafkreieka7bbyod5b5bpnz7vzzj6h6dzvw7x3fff2itsc7qamedtipzgwe)

Dammit Jeff@dammitjeff.com · 6mo agoIf you've been thinking of starting a homelab server, do it now, before it's too late, seriously. A full YEAR worth of my self hosting experience. Crammed into one 30 min video going over EVERYTHING. What to buy, what software to get, how to get everything online, etc. Coming out TOMORROW. :)
It is a strange, fun little challenge to come up with a new thing to add to a round little person each day. No AI is allowed to create the idea, just update the code that draws and animates it.
