   New post: I look at the most ideologically "pure" or least problematic general tech choices---stuff that isn't owned by bigots, not openly bootlicking for Trump, DRM- and AI-free, based on open standards, and isn't cartoonishly greedy.

     Again, I'm dismayed at how much tech is owned or created by the worst human beings on the planet. Forget "don't be evil"; apparently finding a tech CEO/creator who doesn't want to send all Black people to the Moon or isn't a Mr. Krabs-esque greedy miser is asking too much of the tech "brain trust."

     When the world's richest person thinks the Black guy who blogs about Scooby-Doo and Jellyfin (i.e. yours truly) shouldn't exist (and is mad there's people of color *in* Scooby-Doo), it's not exactly encouraging.
