The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative.

The move comes after Microsoft revoked ICC head Karim Khan’s email access when he was sanctioned by the US for the warrant against Netanyahu.

We already have that term "conspiracy theorist"
We gotta have a clear term for people so cynical they become gullible.

Hey fam, are you using a monorepo to build @expo.dev @reactnative.dev apps?

What are you using? Looking for something optimized for react native.

We want to have like a component/widget library and be able to have a showcase app, and also be able to use all of those widgets in our actual apps

For those who don’t know, Lina Khan gave tech bros hell AND her ass to kiss when she was FTC chair. She was busting monopolies left and right. Gave Amazon and Meta the finger too.

This is an EXCELLENT addition to his team.

What started as a “what if” has been slowly transforming into something we care a lot about 🥋

Wish my knees gave a fuck about what I care about too though 😂

Was literally thinking ~2 weeks ago how the era of JavaScript frameworks was so much more fun than what the industry is obsessed with now.

The JS era was democratic, anyone could invent, innovate.

The AI era feels like an oligarchy creating a tragedy of the commons.
We stopped shipping new JavaScript frameworks every week so now I guess we're shipping new AI browsers every week.

Notice how it’s always, “the Bible must inform our laws!” until it comes to the +2,000 verses in the Bible that discuss the generous use of wealth and possessions in a way that prioritizes the needs of the poor, this sick, the stranger, the vulnerable, and the oppressed.

ChatGPT’s new Atlas browser doesn’t just see what you read — it remembers it.

@eff.org’s Lena Cohen showed me it even logged “memories” of her looking for *abortion care* and her doctor’s name. Out-surveils even Chrome.

Column | ChatGPT just came out with its own web browser. Use it with caution.
OpenAI’s Atlas promises AI-powered convenience. The price? Letting ChatGPT track and store “memories” of what you do online.

Why the fuck are Democrats confirming this despot's judges. Why are Democrats giving a single fucking inch on anything, while he is waging war on our country?
