This is heartbreaking. Women's alcohol deaths are increasing - my daughter died alone after fighting for decades. What do we do to create pain and suffering? Is it insecurity, anxiety, industry profits, lifestyle, advertising, lack of support? All avoidable.

Bolsonaro's loss is not just a loss for Bolsonaro. It's a loss for Trump. For Musk. For Milei. For Netanyahu. For Farage. For Meta and Zuckerberg. For the meat barons, the fossil fuel corporations, and the rest of the neocolonial looters. And it is a massive win for humanity and the living planet.

All of Rio turns out for Lula. Flavio Bolsonaro is going to lose tomorrow. Then he will be in jail with his father, militiamen reunited.

Greta Thunberg comes out to support Lula "If Bolsonaro wins, it will be a disaster for the entire planet... Latin America is not for sale. The eyes of the world are on you Brazil, we are counting on you."

UK govt can get information about your bank accounts if you get universal credit, pension credit, employment support allowance. Court order not needed. You won't be told, can't appeal. Same won't apply to enablers of illicit financial flows. No financial privacy for old, poor, sick, unfortunate.

The TV will tell you violence is evil. But demand you cheer every illegal invasion. Ignore Genocide. They will tell you this violence is good, ESSENTIAL. The only violence they don't like, which they are scared of is yours.

The French trashed the McDonalds, looted the Apple Store and Luis Vuitton's hand bags. All run by global billionaires. But they left the French Chicken shop untouched.

More record breaking crowds in Brazil for Lula today. Tonight at 8pm (11pm UK) the final debate between Lula and Bolsonaro is held. Bolsonaro will get embarrassed. And in exactly 1 week the final vote. Vote Lula.

Protest are also taking place in Milan, Italy. As people there are crushed by the enormous 'costs of living' which are just huge profits for billionaires.

Here's how Capitalism works. Netflix made a record profit this year, $426,000 per employee. So they fired 1/15th of their workforce who helped make that profit. To make even more. The system needs to be destroyed.

Mick Lynch wants a progressive wealth tax, which is a Green Party Policy, with the richest paying the same as everyone else on PAYE, 47%. That would bring in hundred of billions, it is time for the richest to pay what everyone else has been paying their whole lives.

The French Police are fighting the Firefighters now, who have joined in the protests. These thugs need to be careful they are outnumbered 50 to 1 and if the people actually fight back they are... Baisés As the French call it.

Protests that started in Spain and then spread to France and Brazil have now started in Belgium. People are sick of being told there is 'no money' by billionaires who are becoming trillionaires.

Surprised more people aren’t alarmed about the financial condition of Oracle. Revenue flat for 15 years adjusted for inflation, only real growth engine is unprofitable AI data centers, future entirely tied to OpenAI and the most ambitious infra projects in history. It’s dying!

Uber just announced it will lay off 10% of its workforce, or around 3,300 workers. Last year, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi made $35M — 360 times his median employee's pay — and announced a $20B stock buyback program to further enrich shareholders and himself. Textbook corporate greed.

Called this back in May. Copilot has different price tiers now with a high-cost one coming up.

SadServers@sadservers.com

(maybe naive) GitHub outages seem to come from load and they have a built-in agent (Copilot) that easily writes a lot of code and Actions tests. Possible mitigation is making Copilot work less by 1) making it more expensive 2) capping its use and 3) tweaking it to be less verbose
