They won’t. Elon cut a program to detect famine called the Famine Early Warning System Network, which tracks food security in ~30 countries. And, he discontinued transfers of food to locations where there is famine and near famine. People are going to die and Elon Musk and DOGE are to blame.

If I am the next president, I will rescind all citizenships granted through this program and deport their recipients to a failed state’s prison of my choosing.

Being dependent on starlink is a national security threat for all countries, including the United States

I don’t disagree. I was just clarifying what would spur one.

Truthfully, we are fucked either way. The truth is having a baby boom would help the economy, but accelerate environmental degradation and the consequences of climate change, which will be extremely destabilizing to society and possibly lead to collapse.

But, if we don’t continue to grow the population, the capitalist world, based on a need for endless growth will falter. We will see less productivity and consumption, which will also be destabilizing to society as the economy shrinks or becomes stagnant. This is also destabilizing to society and could also create a collapse.

Idk man, around me it’s sprawling single family homes for miles, when it should be blocks and blocks of condos and town homes. The NIMBYs have prevented construction for decades and now a house costs $1.5m. There is a housing shortage. I think corporations recently taking an interest in buying houses is because the shortage makes their value appreciate so quickly. They’re like parasites taking advantage of the situation, not the root cause.

Imagine how much open source software could be developed for $500 million/year. What the fuck has firefox done?

Build massive amounts of new housing. Give people paid parental leave, and universal healthcare. Guaranteed baby boom.

That’s what’s so rich. Used to donate to the Lemmy devs and then got censored on .ml for not bootlicking the CCP. Lemmy devs have a PR problem, maybe that’s why they’re struggling.

I still contribute to world and voyager.

Not afraid? It’s insane. Even when Gov. Abbott of Texas defied the federal government on border security, Biden didn’t have him arrested.

You can’t make this shit up. Are we going to watch the president extort US companies with tariffs if they don’t buy his meme coin?

The only way to deal with fascists is through direct confrontation. You can’t hope they behave themselves. Germany needs to jail the extremists and break them.

Millennials are old enough to remember analog cameras and photos of people with red eyes. Man, people need to update their definition of which generation is “young.”

Isn’t it congress who controls that?

Cult!!!

If I had a nickel for every time a congressperson told me they introduced a new bill to address some issue, I’d be rich. In the age of Trump, people aren’t hoping their representatives are going to introduce dead on arrival legislation; they’re hoping their representatives will lead a national movement. We need people in the streets daily. We need occupy DC.

🙄 not even worth responding to this. You’re grasping at straws.

I’m not playing fanboy, I’m just not jumping to conclusions and making shit up to serve my political views. Your article is still just speculation. And, rather than being about mass surveillance, it’s about flying aircraft with VR headsets.

You’re being intentionally obtuse to make a political point. I don’t agree with corporations making large political donations, but stick to the actual topic. Name one military contract that Apple holds that involves tracking users. If Apple was about that, it wouldn’t need to wait for smart glasses to arrive, it already could try. But, it doesn’t. Why?

Apple doesn’t do that though. That’s Google, Amazon, and Meta’s MO.

Why Michael Jackson though?
