I may have accessed my Steam account for a last time around 2013/4. The "carte blanche" Valve enjoys in some circles that should know better still baffles me.

We're told by 🇪🇺President @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu's @eppgroup.bsky.social & @reneweurope.bsky.social that the #AIact is an unacceptable burden on businesses.

So then why did these same lawmakers design and vote for this law *just last year*? What changed since then? 🤔

We know what changed.
EU bends to US pressure again by changing AI Act
As Macron gave a speech in Berlin calling for European digital sovereignty, in Brussels von der Leyen yesterday proposed weakening the EU's Artificial Intelligence Act in response to US demands.

On TDOR, we share the names of just a number of the 281 trans people murdered in the past year. Most were Black and Brown trans women. Activists are being targeted too. We come together in grief and care, and keep pushing for a world where trans lives are safe and full of joy. @tgeuorg.bsky.social

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

one function of capitalism is to funnel these types into positions of power, because if competent & kind people get into power they start taking from the rich and giving to the poor. capitalist leaders must be either evil or ignorant or both, only by mistake does anyone else get near power
What if we could have leaders who aren't either evil monsters or spineless weenies

Next week,🇪🇺President von der Leyen's centre-right EPP group is preparing to ally with the far right in order to pass the 1st of her deregulation packages.

A Commission official says these #Omnibus proposals are being sold as "concessions" to Trump.

Our leadership are going down 2 dangerous paths.
