I would still have a modicum of respect if he came out and said it was all for the money but to defend Saudi Arabia at all is just...
Fuck you, Bill.

No, Microsoft, I'm not upgrading to Win11 just because you want me to. Remember when Win10 came out, and you were still supporting Win7? Yeah, that's what a respectful and responsible company does.

This is a lot like big companies saying they'll go bankrupt if they have to pay workers decent living wages and benefits.

Jeff Bezos might have built a spaceship, but indie bookstores build and nurture whole communities and that is *way* more impressive and valuable.

AI is just another means of wealth concentration. These fucknuts are lobbying governments heavily to have it implemented everywhere so they can do what they do best: syphon money from the many to the few. You pay your taxes, and instead of free healthcare and basic security, you get AI slop.

Easily the stupidest thing I’ve read all day.

What lies beneath the bullshit is that the AI push is about concentrating wealth into the hands of five tech companies. People aren’t part of the equation.
