This open source printer is the poster child for open source hardware. It frees us from the tyranny of having to pay more for printer ink than the price of gold. www.opentools.studio Read more at: UncensoredNews.US/end-user-devices-…

funny how that works

@omgsidewalks
Honestly, i don't understand this economy when nursing homes are so expensive they bankrupt our grandparents but nursing home aides need to use food banks.
daycare is so expensive it eats up one parent's entire paycheck and yet daycare providers only make $10/hr and need second jobs.
college costs hundreds of thousands of dollars and puts students into debt for life and yet we have thousands of professors living in their cars.
everything we need is astronomically expensive and yet almost none of the money we pay is going towards the people actually doing the work and providing the services.

#TruthTuesday 👇 This bears repeating till governments do the work to corral unbridled #AI development: 👇

Screencap of a toot dated June 28 2026 by Ian Bremmer, which reads as follows: ""you ingested the entire written output of
human civilization without consent,
without compensation and without credit
to build a system whose primary
commercial application is eliminating the
jobs of the people whose work you
consumed.
you are not 'liberating human creativity' -
you are strip-mining it and selling it back
at a markup while calling the theft
'training data'."

Bella Ciao 🎶🎵 🎶🎵 🎶

A stencil mural on a red brick wall in Providence, Rhode Island, USA. The artwork features a bold yellow background divided into two sections. The top shows a single large black fish surrounded by smaller fish scattered in disarray, with the text "DO NOT PANIC." The bottom section illustrates the smaller fish united to form a larger, powerful fish, swimming together to face the bigger fish, accompanied by the text "ORGANIZE." The piece delivers a powerful social message of unity and collective strength against challenges. A black fence runs along the bottom edge of the mural.
