I think one of the funniest abortion stances I've heard was from my parents neighbor. He's a like, hard-core libertarian viking larper guy who is very tall and very fat and very bald.

He believes a fetus is human with a soul, but also its "basically attacking the woman's body" so if she wants to get rid of it, that's "basically self-defense". He compared it to shooting a home invader. So he supports abortion not as healthcare, but as killing a baby in self-defense

[status-quo-hater]

Y'know I'm so glad someone reminded me of this. Because this was also discussed.

My stepmother did NOT like the way her Libertarian Viking Neighbor framed pregnancy as the fetus "attacking the woman". She incredulously told him this was extremely disrespectful to expectant mothers to portray pregnancy as so violent and negative.

Libertarian Viking Neighbor's response was that people consensually hurt each other all the time, and "there's like a whole community about that, with the acronym the one that starts with a B" And his reasoning was that if the mother was consenting to bring attacked by the baby, it in fact wasn't violent and negative because there was consent.

He brought up people consensually hurting each other, didn't go for one of the obvious answers like boxing or body mods or something, no he went STRAIGHT TO BDSM and he DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER THE ACRONYM

"While those working at private companies can at least earn a little money, they face possible punishment if they refuse, from being denied family visits to being sent to higher-security prisons, which are so dangerous that the federal government filed a lawsuit four years ago that remains pending [note: article is from 2024], calling the treatment of prisoners unconstitutional.

Though they make at least $7.25 an hour, the state siphons 40% off the top of all wages and also levies fees, including $5 a day for rides to their jobs and $15 a month for laundry.

Turning down work can jeopardize chances of early release in a state that last year granted parole to only 8% of eligible prisoners — an all-time low, and among the worst rates nationwide — though that number more than doubled this year after public outcry."

Alabama profits off prisoners who work at McDonald’s but deems them too dangerous for parole

No state has a longer, more profit-driven history of contracting prisoners out to private companies than Alabama.

The entirety of Western Digital’s 2026 hard drive output is already sold to data centers and won’t have consumer stock until at least 2027

[aholefilledwithtwigs]

AI Companies Bought Out All of Western Digital’s Hard Drives for 2026 Already

Thanks to data center demands, Western Digital has committed all of its HDDs for at least the rest of the year.

WD makes more money selling drives to data centers that then lease you the storage as a subscription

[aholefilledwithtwigs]

I don’t think there’s enough coordination and cooperation for this to be a ‘force people to rely on cloud storage’ conspiracy buuuut i do think all the players involved are smart enough to know that’s what’s going to happen and have no reason to stop it

Plus, with WD specifically, it’s 7 customers. Not 7 retailers, but 7 corporate consumers. Imagine being a company with close to a $100 billion market cap and for the next fiscal year you have to only deal with 7 clients. Why on earth would you prioritize consumer sales when you’ve got these dream clients beating down your door

'That's not going to last': Jeff Bezos believes AI will force you to rent your PC from the cloud, and the RAM crisis is accelerating it

idk it may have started as an accident but i wouldn't for a second believe they're not actively shooting for that now

[plotholes-and-spellingerrors]

I also try not the engage in "this has always been the plan" type thinking. But the second that SaaS proved to be profitable, the moment Adobe proved that you can hold software hostage for a monthly fee by changing the contract and license and people will stick with it because the switching costs are too high, this was the logical conclusion. I don't believe in a shadowy cabal sitting in smoky rooms planning out every detail of the economy half a century in advance, but I do believe in the rent-seeking pressures of the private ownership economy and in the willingness of those in power to just keep pushing a little more each year to see what they can get away with.
