I see the FUD is still alive to this day.

Who here remembers when Microsoft launched a full-on FUD obfuscation campaign to tell companies that if they used Linux, they wouldn’t ever own anything they made and would have to give it away for free?

France for whatever reason tends not to export much tech, so I think many people don’t realize how tech-savvy they have historically always been.

Call me sexist but that guy has really girly handwriting

I mean ok, she’s definitely an awful woman and shouldn’t be doing this job, but judging an individual for their membership of a group that represents some statistical shift from the median is as close to textbook bigotry as you can get. You wouldn’t tolerate someone suggesting that women shouldn’t be allowed physical jobs because they’re statistically weaker.

It’s infuriating how successful the oil companies have been at turning solar vs oil into a fucking culture war.

I’m sort of 50:50 on that one. Whilst it’s a truism that controversy drives engagement, I think it’s still a winnable fight to make it clear to platform owners that most people really do not like slop. It’s not like when you platform fringe racist groups or something where nobody would have heard of them otherwise and they thrive on the oxygen of publicity.

hmm, this looks photoshopped
