Ya know, some people actually only get on social media for curated news, to have actual conversations with other humans, or to share or seek advice about specific topics.

I spend most my time in tech, old home remodel, and local/hometown forums.

Well, it looks fine for web browsing.

Specs sure read like my 2010 PC. If that works for ya, cool ... I ain't even looking at the price though. I'd just as soon plug in my 2004 laptop that's still running fine on XP & an old version of Ubuntu.

Interesting, but there's no evidence they are nazi themselves, just that they intentionally disregard whether any of their partners are nazis, and only concern themselves with whether or not any partnership furthers their goal of promoting open source tech.

So their focus is just limited and immature.

They themselves can still do a lot of good, orgs don't need to be perfect, but I too would expect them to remove support for extremist led project when made aware, as to ensure they weren't inadvertently supporting extremist views and actions. But I also can't see punishing them for being politically or socially stupid while otherwise being very tech savvy.

Like we've never met a socially awkward tech savvy person before?

The world is mostly a bunch of grey areas: at this point I disapprove of a couple of their actions, but I won't boycott them outright for their error.

If they started flying nazi flags themselves, well, then, I suppose things would be a bit different.

"The name "Zoox" is a reference to Zooxanthellae, a marine organism that, like the Zoox robotaxi, depends on renewable energy and is able to maintain a symbiotic relationship with organisms in its surrounding habitat.“

Actually kinda cool, but appropriately dumbed down to be usable in modern coversation, "hold on a sec, my Zoox just pulled up."
