       If we got rid of JavaScript we wouldn't need anything faster than a 486 DX2/66 in our computers.

       @mntmn hey, what's the name of the carrier you use to send stuff to people in the UK? I've had a spate of carrier notifications and I can't be sure if one of them is my pocket reform?

       Sometimes radical kindness is cooking someone a hot meal. Sometimes it's organising a community gathering.Sometimes it's dressing up in a sexy outfit and waving a placard in a racist's face.Sometimes it's helping someone clean their apartment.Sometimes it's taking cups of tea out to striking workers on picket lines.Sometimes it's making art.Sometimes it's self care.Be radically kind.

       @catsalad @domi I keep toying with the idea of getting one but they seem super expensive.

       RE: https://unstable.systems/@AmyZenunim/116638831685099202Such an important post by Alice, and not isolated by any means.Several people in the UK tech scene that I knew and looked up to over the years for their belief in social justice, and that technology could be used as a tool for good, were corrupted by Thiel fellowships.We talk about pathways to radicalisation, but never seem to include technofascism in with that. Probably because I didn't see it until it was too late. By the time I quit tech, so much damage had been done to so many.RT: https://unstable.systems/users/AmyZenunim/statuses/116638831685099202

       Increasingly it seems that young people hate AI, and see it as a "boomer" thing to use. Every time you hear someone on the news talk about building AI for future generations - all they're doing is pretending, in the vain hope that their house of cards makes them enough money to be happy until they die and don't have to face the consequences.It's never really about the future.
