Same here they just seem to be popular, some talk sense others seem to talk nonsense but they have an impact on people for some reason.
Given Trumps threat to NATO which could (or should that be the stroger WILL) leave EU countries at the mercy of other states, we need contingency plans so we are not relying on US military OR technology.
I am not sure if Trump can order Musk to pull the off switch or that may happen given EU / UK plans on internet regulation but right now we seem very vulnerable.
Time will tell, somehow he will do a lot of damage in one area, but pull off keeping his promises in key areas or at least thanks to media and social medias inability to report properly will appear to.
There will be mass deportations, which will tear families apart, but that will tick those boxes, all that will be shown is what the government want people to see.

Yes, this is who I was referring to.
Take a leaf from Islam and make him a martyr and then the cause becomes more powerful.
We have another 4 years of chaos, thanks to big tech, I just hope OFcom in the UK are going to learn from the ruling against ofwat (water regulator) who have been found guility of NOT being tough enough on water companies dumping sewage in water courses. Ofcom need to be tough and no nonsense against social media and big tech or the new laws are not worth the media they are written on.
Not to self, if applicant has influencer their resume / CV put that in the shredder then bin (data protection) and move to next candidate. Granted this may not be fair in all cases.
Not really odd, I think as you are seen as an expert in Tech, business etc, they want to hear that rather than what you think about movies for example. Maybe we are so bombarded with opinions on showbiz, that your ideas on Tech etc are a breath of fresh air to people, plus those ideas are informed.
I understand why he would do this, and also why people are on his side and have no sympathy with the CEO, but I don't think one incident and the killing of one CEO is going to make any difference. We need to be cafeful how we respond on here as not to imply we condone what happened, (even if we do) in some ways we need to use this as a platform to speak out about experience with the US healthcare system.
I am from the UK, the stories I hear are really bad, something clearly HAS to change but it seems that the issue is far wider than healthcare, it is about one group being super rich, making money of the rest of the population, ironically people share and discuss on the very platforms (other than on fedi) that pratice the same idea, So it goes back to capitalism and the side effects of that, dismantle that and you then need a better system to take over.
There is currently a british lady trapped in the USA, as she has no travel insurance and was taken I'll, and can't get home, Not sure why she has no insurance when people know full well what the US system is like.
Availability of guns to one side, we really do need to find out why these kids are doing this, and address some or all of the issues and truly learn the lessons. RIP all involved, sadly this won't be the last.
Looking forward to this years #DitchSummit, so far watched the intro video so waiting for the e-mail with the other presentations as they are available.

Top left would make a fantastic Xmas card
They would pick up a tv broadcast of trump way before that and headed in the other direction.
That sounds terrible, head injuries are never good
Agred and recent visits to pluto have revealed that it is far from the uninteresting world we once thought, has some interesting chemicals within such as Ammonia and there is a lot more to discover, giving it back full planet status will perhaps help drive more missions to this world and its companion Charon, along with the other moons.
Good in one sense, but not so good as it shows how insecure these systems are, they couuld be used for more sinister purposes.
