After claiming that it would only sell its controversial facial recognition software to law enforcement agencies, a new report suggests that Clearview AI is less than discerning about its client base.

If you are mostly command-line animal, this one is definitely worth trying https://qutebrowser.org/

Takes around 15 mins to get used to controls and it's very comfortable.

As long as there's no violent revolution and dictatorship of the proletariat, it's not #Marxism, sorry. That was the whole point of fierce argument between Marx and Liebknecht, where Marx categorically insisted that violence is required for proper "rebirth" of the society.

@aral somehow I feel I'm going to point you at @sir and his articles about wayland... because... well quite frankly I can't find any of the early articles that I read about it that got me interested anymore, and he solved the issues I had with the "reference compositor" - but in doing so, also solved my need to create a minimal tiling window manager (I use i3 on x11, and sway just uses it's setup. Though I tweaked it to fix various things with the keyboard, and so on.)

Um, let's see, this hardware is from... 2012. Thinkpad W530.

I should use Sway more.

I may have also misread your sentence as "I would like to learn more about this interesting subject" rather than "mah masheen, eet wint beewm!" but - I still recommend looking at his material.

But this is probably the best news:

Bernie Sanders keeps touting Denmark as his socialist utopia.

While Denmark has generous social welfare benefits, it is a capitalist country.

With many policies Bernie wouldn't like.

My article today in American Thinker.

In the wake of #COVID19 can we assume that a rational reason was officially found to abolish the "we're flexible on work from home but prefer you in the office just to improve ROI on office rent" policy?
