Grok/Mechahitler owner likely has donated more to GOP/Trump rule. Anthropic CEO wrote an essay that outlined dangers of AI recently, but also underlined how the pure good US must develop Skynet to oppress all of the bad evil opposition to the US empire.
The entire industry is lining up to get US government military/surveillance applications to use the absurd level of datacenters/energy that are being committed to, because "Skynet now or China wins" is even more aggressive consensus than "too big to fail".
Yes agree, i have quit MSFT fully (switched to Ubuntu), Amazon prime is gone and no longer buying from them. Cancelled my Claude subscription, my gmail now auto forwards to my local server, switched my web hosting from AWS to Hetzner, Cancelled my netflix, back to library and jellyfin local server. Same with Spotify. No more Safeway or QFC - Costco is good enough and has the lowest prices locally, or occasionally Trader Joes. Its saving me a whole shit ton of money.
