The role of commercial policy in politics is to keep private companies under control not to do them favors. That's to ensure, that #capitalism is not unleashed. That's the duty of the state towards its citizens. Because capitalism, at its core, is an Ouroboros that would devour itself if given the chance.
Money is finite. The world is a closed system. In order do make huge amounts of money, you have to take it from somewhere. You do not generate this money out of nowhere.

Starmer’s Labour: No wealth tax. No windfall tax. No crackdown on corporate greed. But #benefits for #disabled people? Slashed. Services for the poorest? Cut. They’re not fighting #inequality—they’re enforcing it. #Starmer #Labour #WealthTax #WindfallTax #CorporateGreed

Sometimes I think, maybe I should use TrueNAS, and then I remembered that their C•Suite decided to give the to FreeBSD... the very same operating system and community of developers and engineers who enabled their company to exist from the start, to scale to the level which brought them success and growth and accolades from the OSS and enterprise storage communities alike.
So no, I don't use TrueNAS. Whatever many reasons they and their indolent fanboys push for moving to Linux, and I have heard them all, it's irrelevant. They didn't just bite the hand that feeds, they went straight over to the clown-show makeup meme table and slathered it on; trying so hard to convince everyone including themselves that this betrayal was the Good and Ethical thing to do.
Luckily there are alternatives, and those will get my time, engineering efforts, and fiscal support. One thing to remember: alienated users do not recommend those formerly loved products to their employers, they do not "spread the love" via organic marketing, and perhaps sometimes they dissuade when they would formerly embrace.
@SnowshadowII More than performative IMHO. This political scientist names Ford's intervention as dangerous. I agree. https://emmettmacfarlane.substack.com/p/opinion-doug-ford-has-suckered-everyone
I wonder if the fictional posts from the super evil fictional company from Droian (X-Corps) are getting too real now for the strange world of 2025....
I reckon this sums up the situation pretty well: A desiccated orange that's pissed off the entire planet and his clueless, arrogant tech guy parading his twelfth child whose mother might as well be an A.I.
In 1989 the walk up price for an all inclusive pass to the 3rd SXSW was $10 ($25 inflation adjusted to today). For 2025 it's $2295. #sxsw #austin #atx #tech #music #conventions #inflation #corporategreed

Imagine President Obama turning the White House into an Apple store or President Biden turning it into a Microsoft data warehouse... Never in my life have I seen such a level of corruption and disrespect for the American people, for the world, for the highest office in any Democratic nation.
@thetyee Late stage #capitalism driven by extreme and fast exploitation of the natural world and #corporategreed have captured politicians of all stripes. The @BCNDP are among the worst hypocrites in #Canada. They could be Liberals or Conservatives!
