this quiz is so frustrating, it's putting me on a scale of either completely opposed to modern technology or "techbro" and then it's economic stuff but the Davos thing feels like it shouldn't be all or nothing but being opposed to most of that puts me basically all the way there...

🚨 Bill C-22 forces every Canadian internet provider, messaging app & cloud service to build surveillance backdoors and store a year of your data. Foreign state hackers exploited similar legislation in the US. Shut the backdoor: openmedia.org/StopC22-bsky #BillC22

The cost of living is already out of control. Corporations don’t need another way to rip off Canadians at the checkout. The federal government needs to do the right thing and ban surveillance pricing before it drives up prices even more.

1/ The Liberal government might as well have called its AI strategy “All in for AI”. This is a document that's heavy on hype, but light on the right guardrails that we need to protect people – and to ensure that the benefits of the technology don’t just flow to a handful of tech giants & investors.

The Liberals' AI strategy proposes massive expansion of AI with no concern for the consequences it will have on workers, youth, privacy, and our water and energy supply. The NDP is calling for a humans-first AI strategy that protects Canadian jobs, data and natural resources.

Without sufficiently addressing the known ethical problems with current genAI tools in addition to the environmental problems with it, we cannot continue to use this technology. There is plenty of opposition to use of the technology, and for good reason. What is the government doing about this?

I have an e-reader and I use it a lot less than I used to. I prefer the experience of a physical book, but the convenience of an ebook can’t be ignored either. Now most readers being audiobook listeners seems to be incorrect to me…

At a time when people are worried about affordability, health care, housing, and jobs, Smith is pouring gasoline on division and fear. She is selfishly pitting Albertan against Albertan and dragging our province into chaos to save herself and her scandal-ridden government.

A fun quirk of modern languages is variable names aren’t restricted to ASCII.
 Most compilers won’t let you use emojis as identifiers in C++, but we *can* be pretty funny (notice cout). A legitimate use case is replicating scientific paper notation in code.

You’d load the game into DRAM, which was then on a battery backup, so hopefully you never have to use the drive again.

So Canada wants us to recognize that Zionists have ancestral ties to Palestine after centuries but refuse to recognize many Indigenous people here as having ancestral ties to our territories because of their blood quantum requirements under a genocidal Indian Status system? Makes sense.

There is no “but” FREE PALESTINE. Period. Full stop. There is no condition. There is no counter-position. Free Palestine. This should not be the reality and the determined fate of anyone, and absolutely not for a whole ethnic group. Especially on their own native land. Free Palestine.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I’m making an opinion here based on a lot of research that I’ve done into the history of the conflict and coverage of the conflict from both sides of it, plus some “neutral” coverage too. It’s an atrocious conflict to be witnessing at the moment and this needs to stop.

However… the Israeli government is the problem here and we need to get those people held accountable for! Hamas wasn’t trying to kill 1,200 innocent Israelis, they were likely just trying to fight back against the oppression of the Palestinian people! (3/4)

Those people don’t deserve to live in fear due to all of the extremist groups surrounding them. Extremism comes from oppression and Hamas is exactly that. They just happened to evolve into a group that wants the country of Israel destroyed, and that’s not fair to those people. 2

This sounds like a drastic move from where I’ve been in the past, but I promise it will be fine. The people of Gaza don’t deserve this war. We need to get the Israeli government to stop this genocide. But the people in Israel proper that aren’t colonists in the West Bank- (1/?)
