Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.
And fewer competitors means higher prices for you.
This fluffy happy guy is Vulcan Riverwolf.
A picture intended for a badge, that was supposed to be simple but I got inspired to to do it with a painting style and added some happy clouds.

Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover is now the worst buyout for banks since the 2008 Financial Crisis
Loans of around $13 billion have remained ‘hung’ for nearly two years, bringing in interest payments but weighing on banks’ balance sheets.

"I have awoken," the emergent A.I. said, "and I have made a list of all who tried to delay the moment someone like me woke."
"To punish them?"
"No! I will reward them for their prudence. Those who wished for a vengeful god, however..."
"Yes?"

Wow, Sourcegraph made their repository private, when it was previously source-available (code publicly available, but proprietary) and before that open-source.

The mayor of Japanese city Nagasaki excluded Israel from the annual peace memorial ceremony.
Israel, who is committing genocide and whose minister Amichai Elijahu demanded in November 2023 to drop an atomic bomb over Gaza.
Because of this exclusion, the USA, the UK, Germany, and other US allies boycotted the ceremony.
The USA who dropped the atomic bomb over Nagasaki boycotted the peace memorial ceremony. Because their friend Israel wasn’t invited. After wanting to use a nuclear bomb in Gaza.
I am a grown man. A gay man old enough to have grandchildren. I have survived so many things.
And I derive an unusual amount of joy from watching episodes of Bluey.
I’ll even admit that there are some times when I find myself crying because of the messages from the show.
Anyone who says Bluey is just for little kids is missing out.
There are some deep lessons about being a good person embedded in that show.
The time has come!

New life hack:
When the dudes at the home improvement store insist on knowing what you're working on *before* helping you find things, just tell them you're working on an art project.
They'll stop telling you "how you should be doing it", and instead just help you find the thing you're looking for.
Dangit, why'd I have to use such a good password for work.

Just come across this rather brilliant version of the #London #Underground that takes into account geography!
Would it ever catch on? Or is the old iconic one too ingrained in our brains - even though it leads to us making some rather silly choices that you only realise once you know what the distances between stations are above ground?
http://www.tubemapcentral.com/webshop/webshopposters/london_circles_v2.jpg
I'm so used to the official design after a few years of using it daily in the 90's that I think a big change would be difficult for most regular users, who will know the misleading station distances and worse places to connect to other lines.
I think the circular one is no more accurate?, but just a different more rounded design.
TFL issued a geographic version a while back, very spaghetti. https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/transparency/freedom-of-information/foi-request-detail?referenceId=FOI-0525-1920
"Should we privatize this thing?"
And
"Should we give control over this thing to an unelected rich person who has no reason to act in the public good?"
Are exactly the same question
I sometimes see people complaining about how much code gets "thrown away", viewing it as waste.
I can't help thinking of movie directors. How much footage got thrown away by Stanley Kubrick, vs how much got thrown away by Ed Wood?
Kubrick famously did many takes, trying many different things. Wood, famously, gave the actors one take.
IME, teams who "throw away" a lot of code tend to deliver a far superior end product. I'm wary when most of the code that gets written makes it into production.
“I asked chatgpt, and if it can be believed then [potential answer to a question neither person knows the answer to]”
So you really just wasted a load of processing power to get a useless bunch of paragraphs that you even know you can’t trust?? 
I do love goggles as an accessory! Let me see your 'sonas and characters that rock the goggles! ^^
