Jette Nietzard: Hinter jedem Aufreger steht eine Debatte, die verschwiegen wird

With almost no exceptions, journalists have again been conned by Elon Musk and his PR minions.
One key exception, as usual, is Josh Marshall at Talking Points Memo.

Ist es nicht schön wenn #Mozilla mit Produkten wirbt die entweder an die Community [ @thunderbird / #Thunderbird ] übergeben, #enshittified [ #Firefox ] oder eingestampft werden [ #Pocket & #FakeSpot ]....
Mozilla – Internet für Menschen, nicht für Profit
Wir arbeiten daran, die Kontrolle über das Internet jenen zurückzugeben, die es nutzen.Mozilla
mit "an die Community übergeben" habe ich nicht mal ein Problem…
Von mir aus könnte Mozilla auch Dinge bewerben die überhaupt niemals was mit ihnen zu tun hatten (oder gegen sie entstanden… wie Iceweasel)
Aber mir gute Tools zu zeigen ist ja nicht die Intention.
I need gmail and IMAP/SMTP support, and no llm features, even ones I can turn off. Fuck all of that. Unified inbox is good.
I'm not liking Thunderbird so far, and Vivaldi grossed me out immediately, though I like the browser.
“I will kill you” — overused, no longer threatening

Here's the latest variant picture with a global scope, to mid-May.
The NB.1.8.1 "Nimbus" variant has grown strongly to take over dominance at 27%.
The LP.8.1.* variant has fallen to around 27%.
The XFG.* variant is another challenger, with growth accelerating in May to 12%.
Following the declaration by the WHO of NB.1.8.1 as a Variant Under Monitoring and as Nextstrain Clade 25B, I have separated that variant and its descendants into a new “L2” group, shown in Sky Blue.

The real takeaway here is that tech reviewers, YouTubers, bloggers, and journalists have all been pulling punches with Apple for a loooong time to hang on to access. Anyone who walks out of WWDC with an interview or hands-on should really be assumed to be compromised and untrustworthy. It's been true for a long time, but now that Apple's just another mediocre profit-at-all-costs cutthroat tech giant, it must not go unspoken. macrumors.com/2025/05/29/no-ap…

Venice: A City Built on an Underwater Forest.
Since 421 AD, the city of #Venice has stood on a foundation of millions of wooden tree trunks driven deep into the clay bed of its lagoon. Rather than using steel or concrete, the city was built primarily on alder wood, with some oak piles for extra support.
Over time, these wooden pillars, submerged in saltwater, have petrified, hardening to a stone-like consistency.

I’m always bothered by the people who say ‘because of Me Too, men are too scared to talk to women, what a shame’
Oh yeah tell on yourself more
The last time I talked to a guy who eventually complained about this, at a bar, he complained that I shouldn’t have talked to him at all and I should have been more obvious that I was gay gay and not bi so that he wouldn’t have wasted the time he invested in talking to me (10 min)
I mean if you can’t perceive my overwhelming gayness that is entirely your fault
