Though Benioff's shift mirrors Silicon Valley's broader accommodation of Trump, the exchange offered a rare glimpse of just how far that repositioning can go. The question now: will other Bay Area tech CEOs follow Benioff's lead and call for federal troops in their own backyard?
Sometimes I wonder if Rupert Murdoch has a Fox News for billionaires channel that I don’t know about, where they get all their stupid, destructive, and sociopathic ideas.
I don’t remember where I read this but I recall reading something about how having a certain amount of wealth/power is similar to having severe head trauma… I will see if I can locate it
Edit: boy that’s hard to search. All I’m getting is shit like “10 easy steps to rewire your brain for wealth!”
For future reference, I self-host an instance of SearXNG to get away from Google. It feels much like search used to be (and searching for “wealthy brain damage” this was like the fifth result). There are public instances as well. It’s extremely useful and I hope people utilize it as their default search engine to get away from Google. https://searx.space/
I don’t use Google products anymore other than Maps (and only when I can’t find what I need using OSM or Magic Earth). I used DuckDuckGo which has gotten really bad.
I’m aware of SearX and self-hosting but it just seems like a giant pain to set up. I can do it (…and I probably will at some point) but I just get exhausted doing technology the hard way.
I’ve degoogled my phone, run linux on both laptop and desktop, set up a Pi-hole, and none of that stuff was intuitive or easy to set up and maintain.
I’m aware it’s a skill issue but like, I’m just tired man
I absolutely get that. Truly. It’s a lot. You don’t have to self host SearXNG though. You can use one of the public instances. Self hosting just adds a couple of perks is all. I’m glad you’ve de-Googled! It’s not an easy task.
That’s kinda fascinating. Not sure if it’s related, but I’m pretty good at my job. Not the best by any means but pretty good. But I have to keep myself humble and deferential, because the moment I huff too many of my own farts, I start fucking up. Self-doubt is literally the fuel that powers my greatness (such as it is).

Is it this one?
Yes, I think so. Thank you

Don’t give up! It actually sounds really interesting.

Maybe we can attempt to fix it using cartoon logic. Can’t hurt
its called a golf course.
They all have a secret Discord room.
But that would mean they come up with the dumb ideas themselves! I don’t think they deserve the credit.
