Wall Street has consolidated into 5 giant banks.

Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

Four giants control over 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

hmm maybe this is my sign to add a "open in reader mode by default" flag to Agregore.

Computer? I hardly know 'er!

For real I am excited to buy a large canvas to do some spray paint art on

The effective federal corporate income tax rate:

1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%

Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.

That is how we will pay for it.

@sofia @andrewfeeney @zachleat My hot take: More apps / pages should be constrained to system/user styles. 😈 As much as I love that designers can be employed it's so expensive to do and maintain and users end up being less empowered, especially if they have accessibility needs. I have such a hard time reading sites with fancy designs 😭 RSS was peak content consumption tbh.

“The Cloud now has a greater carbon footprint than the airline industry. A single data center can consume the equivalent electricity of 50,000 homes. At 200 terawatt hours annually, data centers collectively devour more energy than some nation-states.”

@390a5738b56da18489cc672da7c2654904096b560ca5ec0581f87c9762f760dc Just the Rokid Max and the GPD Win 2. I might upgrade to the new XReal headset, but tbh I''m pretty satisfied.

I'm very rarely the passenger when I drive so it's cool to test being able to code on my glasses while on the road.

@outie @swheritage LMAO 215 of my repos are in there. Maybe this can help me auto-complete code for my niche libraries

Watchin "How It's Made" and assembling an Ikea shelf I've been wanting for a while. Life is good 😎👉👉

@alinanorakari @tallship Yeah sadly element is the most feature complete client I have found despite it being the bane of my existence. I have been meaning to make my own but my job leaves me too tired to code stuff like this 😭

OwO What's this? A new way to read through posts on the fediverse?

Come chat with us about it at the

I need a Matrix client that is good … Element is constantly screwing things up. Sometimes short runs of messages in chats I've been in for months suddenly just can't be decrypted. Sometimes it doesn't notify me of new messages for a week or so, on desktop or mobile, before then returning back to normal. Sometimes certain channels just have an unread badge no matter how far I scroll in the room and the threads, and sometimes the badge will stay even if I mark the room read. :blobcathissing:

We've got a new version (v2.5.0) out which improves the look and feel along with fixes for the / protocol handlers.

@fleeky I think it's just the usual level of haunted. It has a music box and starts dancing when it's picked up.

Honestly Daylight Saving Time is so emberassing. My colleagues on one project are mostly in countries that don't deal with it and I have to shamefully be like "Yeah my whole country is gaslighting us about what time it is so now the calendar shifted our usual meeting by an hour"
