#Facebook's reply here is a near copy-paste of the Obama administration's response to the revelation of the NSA's unlawful mass surveillance program.
Mark seems unaware that the "false picture" defense did not do well in court. It did not do well at all:

What's the easiest way of opening HTML source of a URL in Emacs?
- Open it in EWW
- M-x eww-view-source
This is cute #clojure

Do you use #Java ?
Stop. 🛑
If you are a real developer, you need to
be developing with #Clojure
Clojure holds you accountable to the hammock time model.
Java does not.
Java is a delusion. 🔮
Clj is reality.
Have a great day. 🤩

Today we're launching the Tor Project's annual fundraising campaign.
The message is simple: privacy is a human right, and Tor helps millions of people around the world exercise that right.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, your ongoing support makes Tor possible: https://donate.torproject.org
Email is something of a pleasure with #emacs + notmuch + gnus + getmail. A dozen addresses all funneled and sorted in one mail client, quickly created, replied, removed, searched, or added to my daily agenda. After years I would feel handicapped to go back to a web interface.
VR is dystopian in many ways, one of which is that it hates the environment. Ready Player One didn't quite get this right: there, VR was the escape from a ruined world. But it wasn't one of the things ruining that world.

I had a look at the implications of the Facebook Metaverse on emissions from computing. It is scary.
For the ideal VR experience, you need a network bandwidth of 1.6Gbit/s. To watch an HD video at 4K currently, you need 25Mbits/s; 8K would be 100Mbits/s.
So VR requires 64x more bandwidth than 4K video!
Ignoring the infrastructure emissions, purely running this from a cloud data centre effectively means a 64x increase in energy consumption and therefore in carbon emissions.
When I researched my talk about Frugal Computing, I did not discuss VR, as none of the studies I referenced considered it. But with a giant like Facebook behind it, VR might become a very considerable part of our lives.
That would be a disaster: already, emissions from computing are dominated by video. VR will make this many, many times worse.
The only bright side is that with current technologies, there is not enough electricity in the world to power this ideal-experience VR revolution.
I like the point that many Linux users actually know how to make bug reports, and there is transparency in where they go
