Some of you lot still need to get on this 👇
Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:
How to quit Spotify

Sporadic reminder that since billionaires have more money than they could spend in 3 lifetimes & could be using it to help make the world a better more just place but instead just hoard it like the world's most boring dragons we should tax the fuck out of them, take their resources, & do it for them

This isn't a list of jobs that A.I. can easily replace.

It's a list of jobs that techno fascists don't think are worthwhile or meaningful and that they want to eliminate.

They don't want humans to try to make sense of the world, they want us to believe whatever we're told.
Yo, historians, what the actual ****?

I've seen how LLMs handle "history." This is... not good.

Mark Zuckerberg just shared his vision for 'personal superintelligence.' Read his letter.
Mark Zuckerberg wrote in a letter that smart glasses and other personal devices will become "our primary computing devices" in the future.

Are there any good examples of small/medium-scale community-run knowledge sharing platforms?

That are actively maintained and developed both in terms of functionality and content?

Can be around any subject, but looking specifically for examples that are a little more bespoke than just a wiki.

I wrote this guide for those rare treasures in your life, people who have become Star Wars curious because you are frothing at the mouth about how good Andor is, but do not need to be exposed to a tiresome load of cartoon bullshit. Now you can give them the gift of The Perfect Amount of Star Wars.
