Since we know it’s a grift, is there anything non-billionaires can do to profit off the situation?

Nice mention of AdNauseam, here is a link:

It’s based on uBlock Origin, so still state of the art in ad-blocking.

OneNote for office 2016 was a brilliant piece of software (for once). Then they gutted it out, moved it to the cloud and forced you to use the crappy win10 version.

That’s more or less the time I switched my notes to Notion (first), then to Obsidian.

As much as this entire clown show raises ethical questions, I don’t think anyone would risk to be charged of treason (or “domestic terrorism”, that seems to be popular right now) on the basis of a shady group chat.

A few interesting snippets from the conversation.

nobody knows who the Houthis are – which is why we would need to stay focused on: 1) Biden failed & 2) Iran funded.

Always blame the previous admin.

But, we can easily pause. And if we do, I will do all we can to enforce 100% OPSEC”—operations security.

In his text detailing aspects of the forthcoming attack on Houthi targets, Hegseth wrote to the group—which, at the time, included me—“We are currently clean on OPSEC.”

LoL, the irony.

VP: I fully share your loathing of European free-loading. It’s PATHETIC.

Well, fuck you too Vice President JD Vance and US Secretary of defence Pete Hegseth.

On the other hand, it would be very funny if someone decided to bank on Russia’s weakness after 3 years of war and start a full scale invasion special military operation to strengthen the border security.

I wonder if it’s possible to play to their egos and sow discord by continuing to call them President Musk and Mr. Trump.

“I’m not the head of the department, it’s just an empty shell company with a puppethead that follows my every whim.”

It’s not a threat from within, when you have blatantly switched sides and are on the “outside”.

It’s like you guys haven’t ever been arrested before.

I can’t say I have been, so thank you for the explanation.

Since 7 March this year? How did I miss it?

Now do Sweden too.

Have a partnership with Microsoft and ship Windows 12 as the new “AI only” OS. Every command must go through ChatGPT to work. Then push updates to older Win11 OS to make them unusable.

Yeah, but the second half of this AI-generated summary is crap. Lactose and milk proteins that cause intolerance don’t go away with pasteurization, you get sick with UHT milk too.
