🚨HOLY SHIT: The boos just happened AGAIN and Trump stops clapping as they get even LOUDER by the end of the clip.

This is humiliating.

Amazon's back, and they're STILL the undefeated champions of enshittifying everything you paid for.🏆

→ Forced ads into Prime Video (judge: the terms allow it)
→ Killed the Kindle download feature so you can't keep your books
→ Cut off 12 Kindle models, bricked if you reset them
→ Added ads to Prime Music, removed downloads

New month, new way to take back something you already bought.

Everything on the internet will require an ID check soon.
And the government will monitor everything you do, pretending they don't need a warrant because you "voluntarily" gave your data and identity information away.

@AntiTrumpCanada I can't imagine things getting worse than they already by voting in a different person (any person) into office. The existing problem is that the ultra wealthy can now buy the next leader from the Democrat party. We need to break this cycle and vote in a different party.

Anyone else find the uptick in these videos incredibly satisfying? Even better, an entire generation has reached the point where their first instinct is:

"Somehow Peter Thiel is involved."

The creator of Linux just publicly called out the AI hype. Word for word.

Linus Torvalds took the stage at Open Source Summit 2026 and said this:

"When I see people saying 99% of our code is written by AI, I literally get angry. Because those same people — I can pretty much guarantee — 100% of their code is written by compilers. But they never say that."

He is not anti AI. The Linux kernel saw a 20% jump in submissions this release because of AI tools. He uses it. He gets it.

His point is something most people are too afraid to say.

AI is a productivity tool exactly like compilers were. Compilers boosted programming by 1000x. AI adds another 10x on top. Enormous. But nobody says "the compiler wrote my code." So why are we saying AI wrote it?

He also flagged something nobody is talking about.

AI is flooding small open source projects with drive-by bug reports. Someone runs a prompt, files a report and disappears when asked for a patch. Maintainers with one or two people are drowning trying to keep up.

"Sometimes AI reports a bug and when you ask for more information the person has done that drive-by and does not even answer your question. That is the real burnout issue."

And his final warning was the sharpest of all.

"People who do not understand the complexity of systems will prompt systems and write processes that will fail."

The AI hype crowd is very loud right now.

Linus has been building real systems for 35 years. When he talks, engineers listen.

@wilding_gyres This gives me "Possibly in Michigan" vibes. I'm not sure why.

Democrats don’t exist to defeat Republicans, they exist to block progressive movements from access to political power. Ignore the “workers rights” window dressing. Their primary commitment is to protect capital accumulation.

Dividing the country into liberals and conservatives is the ultimate distraction from the real divide: top to bottom. The parasite ruling class stoked the culture wars while pillaging our wages, jacking up prices, and doing irreparable harm to the world we live in.

So yeah, this isn’t democrats vs. republicans, it’s billionaires vs. everyone else.

If you’re tired of getting screwed by the system, please support our campaign. Let’s get Greg Stoker elected to TX-31.

Election Day: Nov 3rd with early voting Oct 19-30
