    Billionaires at Davos don't think COVID is a cold
    A few weeks ago, the New York Times called mask-wearers “the last holdouts”. This week, the world’s richest people went to great lengths to protect themselves from COVID

    .oO pessoal, muito cuidado com a nova variante dessa praga que pelo jeito não vai nos deixar tão cedo.  já está confirmada no .br uma nova onda, muitíssimo contagiosa e capaz de causar graves sequelas mentais e eliminações!  parece que se chama X-BBB23

    .oO se descobrissem que satoshi nakamoto, a quem se atribui a invenção dos blockchains e do bitcoin, não é uma pessoa, mas uma personagem fictícia, um pseudônimo, um boneco que empresta a voz de um ventríloquo, passaríamos a chamá-lo de fantoshi nakamoto?

    .oO mark zuckerberg downloaded thousands of pictures of college students to bootstrap facebook, got no more than a slap in the wrist and went on to become a serial privacy violator
    aaron swarz downloaded thousands of academic papers to bootstrap a public library, got criminal charges, and went on to become a martyr.
    they are not the same!
    and this is how society shapes the future.
    does this look like the future you wanted?

    (-: lavava eu uns rabanetes, para comer como fossem frutas, quando me peguei perguntando-me: com talos ou cortá-los? :-)
    oh, dúvidas culinárias crueis!
    dos rabanetes, eu deixo, mas havia acabado de lavar também pimentas-chapéu, cujos talos eu costumo retirar

    The job of a lighthouse is not to drift along with the currents, but to unwaveringly resist tides, storms and pressure, serving as a reference point, a guiding light, a strong foundation.
    The FSF has done a great job resisting corporate pressure and propaganda that attempts to push public opinion towards self-defeating behaviors.  It has also stood strong in preserving its mission, of defending freedom for all software users, from submission to other valuable social justice causes.
    I trust the FSF to keep on playing these key roles in our social, political, and ethical movement, and that's why I have been a vocal supporter for over 30 years, even when I was unclear and got misinterpreted, and I encourage you to support it as well.
    There are many ways to help the FSF and the Free Software Movement.  If you can, please join, or renew your FSF associate membership, and help us select future members of its board of directors.

    .oO meu cenário de protesto ideal pra final da copa de amanhã:
    ambos os times fazem um jogo medíocre, empatam em zero a zero, vão pra prorrogação, e vão chutando pênaltis pra fora celebrando direitos humanos em gestos e símbolos.  depois das cobranças iniciais, páram de bater e o juiz vai expulsando-os um a um, até que não sobre ninguém pra decidir e acabe no zero a zero, meio título pra cada um.  não vai ter tri ;-)
