We know the goal of AI is fascism, they haven't been shy about this. This is another step: they will get the public used to this nonsense of AIs doing things by their own. So when it starts judging people in various ways the people in control can spread their arms and by then it'll be far too late.

alas, this is a case of incompetence not malice. They offer a special fare for certain OTAs and the department arranging that fare didn't coordinate with the very very disjoint department who handles frequent fliers. Not sure whether this makes sense. I am merely saying Air Canada is incompetent and not malicious. But they are *very* incompetent there's no doubt.

The amount of money Omarchy is getting is absolutely insane. The Python Foundation has an annual budget of around $5 million, the Apache Foundation around $3 million. Meanwhile a niche Linux distribution raised $18M in 20 days.

I worry that some people aren’t taking Omarchy seriously enough. It’s not just another Linux distro. It’s a well-orchestrated campaign to centralize power and influence within the Linux FOSS ecosystem. And it’s working.

Anyone paying attention to DHH and what he stands for can see what’s going on here. When the guy who thinks that brown people don’t belong in society hires the guy who thinks trans people shouldn’t exist, you can see where this is going.

obviously jensen huang's "agi has arrived" is BS but at the same time it signals something indeed has arrived. the end. there's nothing more from here. these crooks said for years essentially "yeah this is shit but just watch when agi lands" well now came it landed but it's the same old shit, what's your next move? nothing.

So Cory Doctorow (npub1fdr…lvhs) have written "The world has moved on" https://pluralistic.net/2026/06/11/lapsarianism/

"Unnecessariat", the most brilliant essay I ever read explaining how Trump rose to presidency in 2016 says "the world has drifted away".

interestingly, Microsoft copilot is the first to break the LLM kayfabe by putting "Copilot is for entertainment purposes only" in ToS and " avoid using COPILOT for ... any task requiring accuracy or reproducibility [and] Tasks with legal, regulatory or compliance implications" in Excel docs. They know it's unusable.

The other is Apple. I find it notable Apple refuses to create a competing LLM themselves. They also know it's unusable.
