@n00b0ss Thanks for the update on dropping this #NixCon23 sponsor.
What stays is a bad aftertaste in my mouth & interesting questions about #ethics in #FOSS projects I don't have a clear answer to (yet?).
As some people mentioned: the #military complex is also funding many #Linux-related projects for many years.
Here in Europe, we still do have a very different image on things like that compared to the #USA. We're much more reluctant to cooperations with the #weapon & #war industry.

#God is a stick

"I don’t mean a branch detached from a tree. I’m picturing a nightstick, a billy club, a cudgel—a tool to bludgeon, to #hurt, to #punish. I think of a #weapon in an #angry hand, an instrument of #violence used to force others to comply with the wielder’s will."

@leigh Exactly...
It's the same everywhere:
People stick to shitty jobs they hate because they can't afford to loose said jobs.
#UBI & #HousingFirst would fix things for most people, but that assumes that #Homelessness isn't used and abused as a #weapon to fear and control #workers and to make them part of the hierachy...

In a new study archaeologists find support for the view that women played an active role as prehistoric hunters by studying prehistoric weapons. They found that women today are as good at throwing the weapons as men. See http://www.neat-news.com/2023/08/233.php. #equality #hunter #weapon
I have no reason to believe that they succeeded, but if they actually do, it is a completely new type of weapon that can revolutionize the world and not necessarily in a good way.

Like father like son, aye! It looks like my pup Rangiku has developed a similar flair for weapon magic. He'll grow up to be a fine warrior.

The Life Economy vs. The Death Economy with Economic Hitman John Perkins
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iek1xHHWfQs&ab_channel=MoneylessSociety
MONEY has been the greatest weapon ever devised by humanity, the cause of more death than anything else. DEBT has been weaponized to conquer nations and bring peoples to their knees. Nobody understands this better than former ECONOMIC HITMAN John Perkins, who personally worked for the state and corporate establishment cajoling poor nations with resources coveted by western companies into accepting loans they could never repay, as a means to control their whole economy and make them subservient to the empire. We talk about his riveting history, how he came to a change of heart, and about the current global battle between the LIFE ECONOMY and the DEATH ECONOMY, and how we can work to build new systems and transitions to change the world.

Safety technology to slow down reckless drivers
In-Car Tech Would Force NYC’s Worst Drivers to Slow Down Under New Proposal
"Cars and trucks can act as weapons when used recklessly, and people who have repeatedly demonstrated they will endanger lives while operating vehicles should be limited in how fast they can drive."
"We are going to literally force you to slow down...Dangerous drivers with at least six speeding tickets in a single year would be forced to install speed-limiting devices in their vehicles under new state legislation."
"We know that the [technology] exits, we know that it works to slow down traffic, and now we are saying that we should apply this across the board to the worst of the worst drivers."
https://nyc.streetsblog.org/2023/08/02/tech-force-nyc-drivers-slow-down
The NSW carnage:
"Each year, speeding contributes to about 41% of road fatalities and 24% of serious injuries. Almost 135 lives are lost and 1141 people are seriously injured."
