#AltText failure.

The thing to do is say that it's a picture of the inside of a data centre with a man using a laptop, presumably to control a drone, then say what the text says. Just copying the text tells a blind person NOTHING AT ALL about the image.

@srtcd424 @pikesley “[D]rone attacks on multinational cloud infrastructure are indeed new and the sort of thing that is almost certainly going to become more common, particularly as domestic tech industries and militaries continue to fuse together into terrifying killing blobs.”

Love this for them. Sow::Reap

@srtcd424 @pikesley Of course the costs of up-armoring these enormous resource hungry datacenters will ultimately be passed along to their clients - on-premises compute is looking bullish, kids, you heard it here first

@pikesley We're getting the kinetic strikes on cyberspace we were promised in Islands In The Net (Sterling -88) and Hardwired (Williams -86). Neat.

Good.

Honestly inappropriate joke considering how reliant a functional society is on internet connectivity.
Maybe think before you post, the war stresses people out enough already, worrying that they can't reach their loved ones anymore is not a "good time"

[pikesley@mastodon.me.uk]

@Purple thanks for your humourless input, random internet stranger

[hierarchy@mastodon.social]

@pikesley I wonder if there are any datacenters underground?

I, for one, look forward to this future of which you speak, Home.

@Purple @pikesley
So...governments around the world are installing fascism to continue to do capitalism on a boiling planet, many are using AI tech in warfare (with devastating and horrifying consequences) and these wars are being started by the worst people on the planet...

But sure, let's blame the OP for posting a bit of dark humor.

@pikesley "you promise?"

[gunstick@mastodon.opencloud.lu]

@pikesley in war times one has to destroy the AI machine which is coordinating attacks.

[mistermultiverse@mastodon.social]

@pikesley everyone, it is not that hard to quit using billionaire social and news media. Do it now, sooner than later! Help convince others to be part of the solution too!

[iwillyeah@mastodon.ie]

@pikesley this feels like hoverboard levels of promising. Too good to be true.
