#Stackoverflow is dead. What is the alternative?

Burn in hell #stackoverflow

@tokyo_0 @mastodonindians It can all be explained by the fact that Congress has no idea what people want

@tokyo_0 smoke and mirrors and bhakt delusions aside, India is a big country with a large share of global trade, and that's not changing anytime soon. The US will of course do what the US does, that's not changing anytime soon either.

Not quite sure how the US is relevant here to Indian govt censorship though?

@tokyo_0 I fully expect this crap to intensify in the near future

Tried to unsubscribe from Replit emails but the govt doesn't want me to

#India #Censorship

How long before the #IronCurtain falls in #india?

I just noticed this when a system update failed. Now random tech websites are being blocked for no reason and no justification or notification?

Remember #elections are coming, and your vote matters yet.

I can't even fully express how irrationally angry and helpless the blocking of ubuntu.com makes me feel

Every shitty #proprietary service, going head first into monetising your data and using it to train #AI:

"We have updated our terms of service!

We have changed how we describe our service and how it can be personalised for you.

We also updated what data we collect and how we use it.

We have updated our dispute resolution process and your rights to arbitration."

#privacy #enshittification

At what point do the masses of a country slipping into autocracy realise how bad things truly are? Not before it's much too late to do anything about it

Replacing organised content with search was a mistake. Replacing search with #AI will be an even bigger mistake

Install a network monitor on your phone to see just how much data is transmitted by apps. #Blinkit is one of the worst offenders I have found.

Constantly tries to ping home, even when running in the background. Of course I also keep its internet access off by default so it doesn't go anywhere.

A star continuously shoots out more energy than we can ever need at us and that's a problem?! Get it together scientists and politicians

#ClimateChange #EnergyCrisis

If there are two ice cream shops, or two chemists, or two fast food joints, or something similar, located close to each other - always walk a little bit extra to the one further away from you, just to break Hotelling's law

Be irrational. Don't let the economists win

If two companies offer the same services, pick the one with the worse SEO

How long before prompts are too big for a single person to analyse or formulate

#AI

#Apple doing it's best to disallow alternative app stores on #iOS despite EU ruling. #Google gearing up to ban sideloading apps on #Android in Singapore.

Meanwhile over here, my #OnePlus6 running #LineageOS happily downloads apps from #Github for me 😀

@tokyo_0 to look cool I suppose 😄

TV Show recommendation - Watch #Rocket Boys on #SonyLIV. A wonderful historical drama about an important part of India's history that manages to be very entertaining as well. You will never think of #VikramSarabhai or #HomiBhabha the same way again.

A bonus is that the whole family can watch it together (there's no violence or nudity).
