Film crews became 'collateral damage' of Hollywood strikes
They're not collateral damage of the strikers, they're collateral of the same executives that dragged their assets thinking they would win.

Microsoft faces antitrust scrutiny from the European Union over Teams, Office 365
Reply in thread
Slack did not file a complaint because they're losing. This is what it says in the article: Slack filed a complaint with the EU in 2020, claiming that Microsoft was "force installing [Teams] for millions, blocking its removal, and hiding the true cost to enterprise customers." And this is investigated 3 years later than the complaint. Microsoft has a history of installing bloatware and changing default clients to open with their own software.

Mastodon gets better search, onboarding, and cross-server interactions
Unfortunately I've heard that a lot of people especially from academia are moving to bluesky. I've already started talking to some people I know about Mastodon. I hope the word spreads around.

I'm still in awe of how good the quality of this was at the time. Hell, even now rigging is horrible on so many things.

It's not really a big problem, there's a very small minority of rich people. We can sort out the problem in less than a week.

They can't work on you if you don't see them. My gal Ublock Origin taught me that.

I don't think you're quite grasping the situation here. Slack does not come preinstalled on any system, Teams does. That is the whole point, unfair competition. Large companies have a history of bullying smaller ones. Any action against these giants is long overdue and very necessary.

Electric cars are here to save the car industry. They still do significant damage to humans. Car tires are the number 1 cause of microplastics in the ocean.

YSK: If you work hard enough, your work will [pay off].’ And that’s not true.
Having lived in quite a few countries now, it's all about who you know. It's extremely hard to get a job when you don't have a network.
