From the Creator of ‘#Succession,’ a Satire of #Tech’s #FarRight
…“Succession” creator Jesse Armstrong…new movie, “#Mountainhead,” …He wrote the script, about grandiose, nihilistic tech #oligarchs holed up in a mountain mansion in Utah, in Jan & Feb, as a very similar set of oligarchs was coalescing behind #Trump’s inauguration. Then he shot the film, his first, over 5 wks this spring. It premieres on Sat on #HBO.

Does anyone here have information about the status of Matrix-WhatsApp bridging/interoperability? (Maybe @matrix?) 🤔
Ads coming to WhatsApp is making me much more frustrated than I already was. I haven’t been updating the app since the introduction of Meta AI, but now WhatsApp is demanding that I update within 15 days or I won’t be able to use the app anymore.
So, the time has come: I have two weeks to backup and quit WhatsApp for good.
Since I’m here: could I also ask for your advice for local-only, not cloud, software that can backup ALL my #WhatsApp chats and store them locally in a browsable format/database? I found out about WhatsApp-Chat-Chat-Exporter but I’d like to learn more before testing it out.
Boosts welcome, let’s help each other and resist the broligarchy together! ✨
Damn, we wouldn’t have all this trouble if only the #DMA was actually enforced 🤬

For months, #ElonMusk’s U.S. #DOGE Service plumbed the federal government’s information systems, scouring arcane internal records that the billionaire said were guiding his hunt for waste. Now that #Musk has stepped away from his government role, some of that data could be valuable in another way — by giving the world’s richest man a competitive advantage over his rivals in the private sector.
