If you’re confused about why some people don’t seem to “understand” how revolutionary #ArtificialIntelligence is for humanity, let me explain: If jobs are replaced by #AI, how will people earn money to buy capitalist shit? #tech #capitalism www.youtube.com/watch

In #entertainment news, #Amazon now has complete creative control over the James Bond property. Amazon bought MGM & wanted to create a James Bond Cinematic Universe, and Barbara Broccoli hated it. She lost. #enshittification #movies #007 www.polygon.com/news/5263…

This took a while. #Amazon has announced that they will be shuttering their #Android #AppStore on August 20th of this year. They clearly thought they’d eat #Google’s lunch with their Kindle Fire tablets, but that never happened. #Apple ate that market. #capitalism #tech slashdot.org/story/25/…

There is no question that, if there isn’t one already, we need a #ProtestTracker. Or even just use the hashtag and post images and videos from these protests. Share our frustration at the outrages of #TFG and Co since the MSM won’t. #uspol #news #protests kottke.org/25/02/004…

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Genesis - Abacab (1981). I adore this album, even more so now that I’ve found out that it’s also one of Ian Thornley’s favorites, too. I’m beaming :) #music #genesis #prog #progrock www.youtube.com/watch

If you are unfamiliar with Canada’s Ian Thornley and #BigWreck, prepare yourself for some lessons. I’m going to be posting live track videos for a bit, some solo, others with the band. We’ll start here with Frozen Pond from 2016. #music #YouTube #rock #prog www.youtube.com/watch

Well, it seems #Valve has made a huge update to #Source #SDK that adds all of the #TeamFortress2 client and server game code so that anyone can make their own games, provided they’re free. More deets in the blog post. #videogames www.teamfortress.com/post.php

Watched “Don’t Let Go” on Netflix this weekend starring David Oyelowo and Storm Reid and directed by Jacob Aaron Estes and am shocked to discover that it was made for $5M. Amazing film and well worth your time. #film #movies #netflix #scifi www.slashfilm.com/1793113/s…

Well, this is rather fascinating! Some mad genius hacked a Nokia Lumia 1020 to run #Apple’s #iOS for #iPhone. The trick? Inside the Lumia is an iPhone SE 3!! Still pretty damned cool, if I do say so myself. #retrocomputing #hardwarehacks #tech www.macworld.com/article/2…

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: The Cars - Candy-O (1979). It’s rare for a sophomore album from a band to chart better than their debut, but The Cars did it. Blending #rock, #pop, #newwave, #artrock, and #punk, Rick Ocasek and crew brought their own sound to the party #music www.youtube.com/watch
