Oh no. Please. Not NVidia, or Meta, or Amazon, or Google, or Apple, or Palantir… Oh and don’t forget… Uh, I mean not Mircosoft.
Microsoft is a huge liability. They’ve forced companies and home PC users to be needlessly dependent on their cloud services to be able to do just about anything. They own the hugely popular GitHub and NPM developer platforms, and indirectly control other developer platforms through GitHub integrations. They’re one of the major cloud service providers. They have a system that forces home and small business PCs all over the world to execute arbitrary code. They’ve been replacing their developers with incompetent AI systems. A major Apple or Google attack has the potential to break nearly all mobile devices, but a major Microsoft attack could cripple businesses everywhere.
Facebook and Palantir on the other hand could just disappear off the internet and we’d be better off.
Glad I went Linux and moved house to the berg
Laughs in Linux
Any open source project that still use github should be boycotted in my book. That simply doesn’t respect the licence.
What does licensing have to do with it?
Well if it’s on github it’s not open.
X. Surely X is a Tech company. Tesla too. They are as much tech as automobile.
All EV manufacturers are as much tech as automobile today, I would argue.
I mean automobile is a technology
I concur, please levea the big tech alone, they are doing so much good for the world, cogh cogh, I meant for shareholders.
“Residents within a one-kilometer radius of these terrorist companies across all countries in the region are also urged to evacuate and move to safe locations.”
Americans: “The fuck is a ‘kilometer’?”
Also Americans: “The fuck is a ‘radius’?”
There’ll be like two actual Americans there, but the rest of the workforce won’t explain it to them because they’re sick of everything being compared to “back home” all the time.
Also Americans: “Move?! You fascist! I’m tired of being harrassed by the fitness movement! I have the Constitutionally-protected right to sit and remain passive, you woke Communist Socialist!”
Pass the ranch dressing, please.
Interesting that they put their data centers near civilians population. Wouldn’t that make them human shields?
Its fair game I guess.
Finally a news story with multiple reasons for a cheer and support.
US: “You won’t attack us.” Iran: “April fools bitches.”
Going to be checking Google maps for the Gulf of
AmericaIran in the morning.Please do it
no don’t do it
Do it harder
no stop
You can tell America is in a pretty bad place when Americans aren’t too broken up about this development. Or actively cheering it on.
Aught to make for a fun April fools day.
Many U.S. tech companies have offices in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, and Abu Dhabi, which could become targets of Iranian drone and missile attacks if the country follows through on its threat.
Microsoft has offices in Qatar, Dubai, SA, Bahrain, Oman, Kuwait, and more I’m sure. Oracle also has offices across the region.
These come to mind, but there are many other companies I’m sure.
April 1 - “lol check out this silly thing that Google maps is doing!”
April 2 - ( ˶°ㅁ°)
How difficult would it be to smuggle and assemble a variant of the Shahed drone into North America? Dissembled and separated, it would look like lawn mower parts, sheet metal, and ewaste.
