FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH

BTW, I’ve been fascinated by this old sign for some time now. The insides used to be much cruftier, as shown in these photos. Facebook/Meta have cleaned it up since then and fixed some bent metal in the old Sun sign.

Sun certainly used to be all over the place (and I remember when it was all/mostly at one place on Rengstorff). Here’s a sign on an old Google building that used to be an old Sun building.

Silicon Valley archaeology on a Sunday afternoon: Meta’s HQ was originally Sun Microsystems’, until Oracle bought Sun and Facebook bought its buildings. To make a statement, Facebook updated the front of the old Sun Microsystems sign, facing the road, but left its decaying back untouched.
