The guy who started doing this (downloading academic articles and making them freely available en mass) was actually driven to suicide by a court case, so be careful with that.

While he was alive tho, Aaron Schwartz was one cool dude.

Hell yeah, if you're not ready to loose something you're not protesting right.

IDK even they don't seem happy. Elon seems fucking miserable. I mean, I don't feel bad for them, but knowing that literally everyone thinks the world would be a better place without you can't feel great.

AI isn't optional + AI doesn't help at work = it's okay to slack off at work if you can blame AI

Glad to see that weird subplot from Futurama (where the rats in NYC are replaced by owls) is off to a good start.

This is your friendly remind that one of the reasons for demonizing and subsequently genociding the natives was that people would regularly join them for a better quality of life.

The system knows it's terrible and the only way to maintain itself is to make, by any means necessary, all other systems unobtainable.

They're trying to get rid of the NWS because they want to privatize access to weather data.

Imagine what it will be like when you have to pay to receive severe weather alerts. These bastards are just trying to make it (even more) fatal to be poor.

Somehow you read all that and missed the first sentence.

Betteridge's law of headlines is an adage that states: "Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no."

Bigger in everyway! Bigger crime, bigger gun problem, bigger capture by oil companies, bigger environmental damage, bigger racism, bigger highways... The list goes on!
