Yeah, it's hard. People don't want to see the problems because they don't want to change. Law makers are the ones we really can't fail to convince.

I've donated monthly to OpenRightGroup well over a decade now. I make sure it is always more than my wife's Netflix (DRM pusher) to maintain a net positive!
It is partly designed to hurt Fdroid. Which will hurt Lineage, Graphene, e/OS, etc. It's all very anticompetitive.
This is a legal/poltical issue more than a technology one. The good guys are the EFF, OpenRightsGroup, EDRi and others in the same side. Increasingly phone apps are forced on us to do things at all, and those apps are not only closed but only run on locked down OSs. It's anti competitive, anti-freedom, authoritarian, etc etc.
We need to get better at convincing non-nerds. We need to stop fighting political fights by burying ourselves ever deeper in tech. Which I'm guilty of too!
Good podcast episode interviewing Frank Kolichek were the folk is mentioned : https://opensourcesecurity.io/2026/2026-02-nextcloud-frank-karlitschek/
Count the RISC processors and RISC ones in your house that isn't the central one of a PC. You dishwasher, washing machine, tumble drier, TV, routers, WiFi access points, everything else, will be RISC. Normally ARM or MIPS. Apple has gone all ARM. Microsoft are trying to be relevant on ARM. ARM servers are now in low power data centers. RISC-V has a bright future due IP anticompetitive nonsense of x86 and ARM. Oh and x86 has a RISC heart and instruction conversion chips. Which "won" again? ;-)
Also NT is normally said to be a "hybrid" : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_kernel
It's not just the compute, it's all that data.
As always, have to think where you put your money.
Be so much easier if they weren't all just different types of bastards!
I had a quick look and ownership and it's quagmire. I don't believe that a man like Murdoch ever gets to the point he has no stake in anything. I can't see his name on it skimming company house, but it wouldn't be that easy. I'm sure it's still his in some form.
Don't know when it stops doubling and switch to thousandths. I mean it's not like imperial worries about sticking to any bases anywhere else.
Well you have to. My old school engineer dad thinks of everything in "thou", thousandths of a inch. And if it was all base ten, it wouldn't be a problem. I had to deal with an imperial label last few weeks, with 3/64 and 3/32 parts. Anyone picking this up isn't going to know that, they just see 0.046875 and 0.09375.
Oh I know you can run it locally, but I don't think you can't create it locally because even if you had the compute, you don't have the training material.
I don't know how long AI companies are expecting to run at a loss. It is normal for a while for new bigtech. Though this is new scales. Hopefully this bubble with deflate rather than pop, just because the amount of money will have real world consequences.
