Watch the proton ceo ignore this while claiming the Trump administration “wants to regulate big tech”

Nor do I. Wasn't the Proton CEO kissing the ring a few weeks ago?

[–] Comtief@lemm.ee -1 points 4 days ago

Apparently that was a misunderstanding, he communicated badly. Or I'm thinking of something else, idk. https://archive.ph/xoleo

You know what? They should be broken up even harder.

Bro... Under the current regime, no big tech will be touched

Killing Google to serve as a warning that the rest of them had better follow orders might be useful…

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 13 points 4 days ago

They all kissed the ring... They are all working with trump

[–] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 6 points 4 days ago

Eh I don't see that happening, the sheer amount of data Google has on the US population is probably quite useful to the admin, for, uh, reasons.

Microsoft got off the hook when Bush II took office. Tech in general took that as a sign that monopolies were fine. That was just starting to be reversed when Trump took a second term and here we are.

"The bigger we are the more misery we can inflict - Musk, Trump, plz help!"

Can we get some actual tech related news please? This is just politics OF a tech company, not tech itself.

[–] crank0271@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

What's the last significant tech development you remember? They're all just monopolistic lobbying firms.

Mahle SCT/MCT Hybrid no-contact electric motor, the one that doesn't need brushes or rare earth metals.

This community has done nothing but bitch about technology - there doesn't seem to be anyone here that actually enjoys technology, so much as they like bitching about technology.

This is cool - I hadn't heard of it. This article describes it (while being suspiciously similar to the press release itself): https://newatlas.com/automotive/mahle-perfect-electric-motor/
