Tech writers

I just read a BBC news story by Jo Twist. A so-called technology reporter. I've never seen such gross technical errors and misstatement of facts about the internet in my life. This clown clearly has not a single clue about the inner workings of the internet because he writes that ICANN manages how email and web browsers direct traffic. This is the kind of shipshod reporting that leads people to distorted views. How in the FUCK DID THEY LET THIS STORY GET PAST REVIEW! You can barely trust anybody writing mainstream technology articles. There are probably only a handful of competent tech reporters out there. The only other people who could properly explain technical issues aren't writing articles but fixing technical issues. I am disgusted daily at the sewage that reporters spew. Its awful. Another issue is that when there are competent tech people some of them are so biased to a single technology that they skew the facts of the situation so terribly that you get a false picture of things. There is a lot of that shit going on.

There are a lot of proud fuckers patting themselves on the back for coming up with the sub $100 laptop for poor people. That is a goddam shame. They are going in the wrong direction and are lauding themselves for it. Has any fighting for equality just given up and made concessions to lower standards. I can't believe these fools are touting this as some kind of boon or step in the right direction. All it does is reinforce the rigid class breaks that affect innovation in modern society.
