FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione, CEO shooting suspect, is a tech workerEnglish21·5 months agoThe future vice president of America is close with the leaders of the neoreactionary movement. I suppose, I wonder if a positive public opinion would make it easier for them to mobilize.
Edit: ending up with support from both sides of the isle.
FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione, CEO shooting suspect, is a tech workerEnglish31·5 months agoThat’s a sensible way to look at it. People’s actions can be separate from thier outlook, and that’s ok.
FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione, CEO shooting suspect, is a tech workerEnglish21·5 months agoFair take. That wasn’t my intention, although, now, I suppose that maybe a natural progression.
I admit, there is definitely a disconnect, considering his actions, but, I really am torn on the idea. I guess, I question that if (and big if) his intention is to build this type of future, would his actions be enough to make others sympathetic to his cause? If, or at what point, people turn away?
FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione, CEO shooting suspect, is a tech workerEnglish2·5 months agoIt could just be the tech culture he was around, and not the actual reasoning. Guess we’ll have to wait and see.
FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione, CEO shooting suspect, is a tech workerEnglish611·5 months agoDoes everyone still feel the same if he turns out to be a neoreactionary / accelerationist?
Per The San Francisco Standard
Mangione gave Ted Kaczynski’s book “Industrial Society and Its Future” four out of five stars, writing that the man known as the Unabomber was “rightfully imprisoned” for “maiming innocent people” but noting that his actions were “those of an extreme political revolutionary.”
Mangione’s social media accounts paint a picture of a tech enthusiast with a soft spot for conservative thinkers. He has retweeted posts from right-wing capitalists like Peter Thiel and lists an applauding biography of Elon Musk as one of his favorites on GoodReads.
FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Bluesky is cracking down on parody accounts and impersonatorsEnglish2·5 months agoAnd considering there’s so many new accounts, its not like one can go back and check the post history to see if what they’re saying adds up.
There were accounts, posting seemingly “up to date” information with no way to really fact check. There were some political “personal” accounts just testing the waters with BS. Stuff like: “It’s me. I’m not going to say anything else yet, but, here I am.” It made it kinda hard to discern.
FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Niantic uses Pokémon Go player data to build AI navigation systemEnglish1·6 months agoYou’d be surprised how a pokemon go player will open the app in the middle of the wilderness, even with one questionable reception bar, just to see if there’s a secret rare pokemon that lives there. Bonus if you get a postcard from a pokestop someone submitted, because that trail mile marker is “special.” You can keep it for memories, or send it to a friend you’ve never spoken to, for bragging rights. It’s also not unheard of, for people to crawl through backroads in their car, since the app won’t let catch pokemon or count km’s, if you go more than ±15 mph.
FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Illegal Streams Let Criminals InEnglish3·7 months agoTheres firestick apps that stream all the regular channels, plus all the premium channels. (HBO, showtime, stars, ppv, etc) Essentially for $10 - $20 a month you get the best, most decked out cable package one could buy. You may or may not have access to all the new and old movies, TV shows (from all the platforms), and porn, on demand, as well. Maybe like that?

FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Ask Science@lemmy.world•Has there ever been anything originally dismissed as pseudoscience that was later proven to be legit?English3·8 months agoSo they say. Guess he lost his vocal cords during the process. Wonder how it would have been if the church just let him get medical help…or never told him to start smoking in the first place ;)
FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Ask Science@lemmy.world•Has there ever been anything originally dismissed as pseudoscience that was later proven to be legit?English2·9 months agoIdk Val Kilmer is always smoking like a chimney in all his early movies. But then he also went against the church to get chemo so…

FarFarAway@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Google’s Pixel 9 lineup is a Pro showEnglish2·9 months agoGotcha.
Upon looking into it further it seems they just bought the design department. That’s crazy.
I used to love HTC phones, and was a loyal customer. Glad they’re trying to make a comeback.

It always seriously stumped me as to how Bowie was so good at that. Like did he learn it for the movie? If so, was he practicing all the time, because the movements are seriously flawless. I can’t believe I never thought of this.
You have solved one of the great mysteries that has followed me through my life, but apparently never thought to look up.
Maybe a moka pot?
