Global society is trying to commit suicide . It’s a normal behaviour when anyone gives a single fuck of common things. Everyone there is trying to make it and just leave . Most corporations is happening the same and I think is happening in societies too. There is nothing left to fight for in community.

I never thought I'd see one of Charlie's blogs posted around Lemmy unless it was about his books. Good to see him getting some recognition.

there’s no 5 year plan, it’s 5 one year plans in a trench coat.

Suddenly every PC becomes a target for Discovery during legal proceedings. Lawyers can subpoena your Recall database and search it, no longer being limited to email but being able to search for terms that came up in Teams or Slack or Signal messages, and potentially verbally via Zoom or Skype if speech-to-text is included in Recall data.

Discovery includes personal devices too, btw.

one can only hope!

They are too big and the corporate contracts are too ingrained in society. They won't lose anything meaningful over these terrible anti-consumer decisions because they don't care about individual consumers. As long as the bigger ticket contracts are in place, their income is totally safe.

wow haven't seen antipope in a long time

They need to stop polishing a turd. It was a great OS when it was windows 98, but at this point they've just tried to shove so much iOS and Linux into it that it's a shadow of its former self.

They need a shadow team to make a new product that isn't windows and is basically just a kde Linux distro.

No: once a corporate-culture gets sufficiently divorced-from-reality, then they "have their heads up their asses" sooo far, that they commit blunders unless they "get a reality-check".

Committee-culture's fungus-minded.

The problem is that the frame-of-reference is relative, so a corporate-culture which is still immersed in outer-customers' reality is only one "degree" divorced-from-reality.

However, if the "frame-of-reference" of a culture is other sociopathic cultures, .. then .. then outright psychopathy becomes recommended/pushed/evolved, in order to compete among the misperceived-context ( which is only other-sociopathies ).

So, it's an escalating positive-feedback-loop.

Sociopathy breeds sociopathy, & when enough of the corporate-frame-of-reference is sociopathy, then psychopathy becomes primary, & eventually it is normal & ruling.

The increasing polarization in political-sphere, in religion/fundamentalism-sphere, in moneyarchy-sphere, in legalism's increasingly shameless contempt-for & eradication-of moral/natural law, the increasing polarization of class-system/monarchy among those in-love with that, the bolder & bolder violent authoritarianism..

it's all part of the SAME gorgon/hydra, just that each "serpent" is going in its own direction, but the fundamental change in human-unconscious is one of "fuck considered-reasoning: I'm going with ideology-enforcing!!"..

it's less intellectually-taxing to be ideological/prejudiced "believer" than it is to remain loyal to considered-reasoning..

there's less moral-anxiety within ideology/prejudice/belief than there is in considered-reasoning..

Overwork unplugs one from the push/pull cycle, the work-hard/rest-deeply cycle, which considered-reasoning requires..

& Microsoft is only 1 single example of progressing-through-sociopathy-into-psychopathy among our countless corporate world-possessors.

DarkHexad dimensions of human-evil:

Narcissism / Machiavellianism / Sociopathy-Psychopathy / Nihilism / Sadism / Systemic-Dishonesty.

Can you see how the more one immerses oneself in DarkHexad as a means of "winning", the more one's frame-of-reference normalizes that all?

It's just "drift", but in frame-of-reference, is all..
