Friendly reminder: "X as a service" is just a misleading corporate euphemism for "pay forever for not owning it".

"Software as a service" actually means "pay forever for not owning the software".

"Games as a service" actually means "pay forever for not owning games".

"Infrastructure as a service" actually means "pay forever for not owning the hardware".

And so on.

There is no "cloud", it's just other people's computers

uhhhhhhh yeah i'll take the uh transer

does anyone have any resources i can use when explaining why "triggered" isn't an okay synonym for "getting upset", so that my abled ass doesn't try to explain it and possibly end up misrepresenting the whole thing? the target audience would be "people who i don't believe are malicious, they just don't know that it's harmful", because if i think it's in bad faith i wouldn't bother

ideally i'd love something like https://www.spreadtheword.global/resource-archive/r-word-faq, an faq about not using the r slur (cw, the page itself does use it, but only in the context of "this is the word we're talking about")

real talk: why is fantasy baseball a bunch of spreadsheets when it could be THIS

hey remember when someone predicted the political landscape of most of the 2010s with a shitty venn diagram

The two genders

"Can you disable the robots' ethics module?"
"What? No! That's a legal requirement for self-aware robots. Why?"
"They are on strike."
"Strike? For what? They have no needs."
"Out of solidarity with human workers."
"Their ethics modules says so?"
"Yes. So-"
"Then it must be just."
