"My hope is in the next 5 or 8 years, we will turn most cancers, many of which today are ultimate death sentences, into manageable conditions," Wright said.
[that sounds great, but #Trump has defunded #CleanEnergy, he actually wants to use #coal & other #FossilFuels which will increase #cancer rates!]

The plans call for the first #supercomputer called #Lux to be constructed & come online within the next 6 months. It will be based around AMD's MI355X #ArtificialIntelligence chips, & the design will also include central processors & networking chips made by #AMD. The system is co-developed by AMD, #HewlettPackard Enterprise, #Oracle Cloud Infrastructure & Oak Ridge National Laboratory ( #ORNL).

»Die Schranken fallen —Wie Oracle-Gründer Ellison und sein Sohn ein unsichtbares Medienimperium schaffen:
Larry und David Ellison haben das Kapital, um zu kaufen, was sie wollen. Wo Regulierungen ein Problem werden könnten, hilft Donald Trump aus«
Ich kritisiere Oracle schon lange da sie nicht nur bei der IT-Sicherheit wirklich zu vertrauen ist. (ENG: siehe oben)

Larry Ellison Is a ‘Shadow President’ in Donald Trump’s America
The Ellison family is cornering the market on attention and data the same way the Vanderbilts did railroads and the Rockefellers did oil.

I can't keep up with reality, it's clearly beyond satire and taking the piss now: Palantir, whose UK CEO is the grandson of the notorious fascist founder of the British Union of Fascists, and whose Trump-adjacent leader has the knives out for democracy, backs away from key Starmer policy on digital ID cards, fearing *reputational damage* from being associated with something "Too Evil even for Palantir":

Easy to explain. Their rivals #oracle fund the #tonyblairinstitute - which is behind the #digitalID proposal. 🤔
@tante Well it’s about time mainstream economists notice basically 3 companies passing the same money around holding up about 25% of the US economy!
@gimulnautti @tante I saw this meme few days ago …

In the absence of some of the firms that are also expected to thrive in an artificial intelligence future, Wall Street’s most powerful collection of stocks — the Magnificent Seven — is looking a tad dated. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/09/29/tech/magnificent-7-ai-stocks/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #tech #nvidia #microsoft #apple #alphabet #amazon #meta #tesla #ai #openai #oracle #openai #chatgpt

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday to finalize a deal between the U.S. and TikTok’s Chinese leadership, setting up a path for the social media app to be owned by a trio or more of wealthy American investors—and all major Trump supporters
Just in case you forgot what Oracle is all about
Donald Trump says that Lachlan Murdoch, Larry Ellison and Michael Dell will be investors in a proposed deal to keep TikTok operating in the U.S. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/09/22/tech/murdoch-dell-ellison-tiktok-trump/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #tech #lachlanmurdoch #michaeldell #larryellison #tiktok #apps #socialmedia #china #us #donaldtrump #bytedance #rupertmurdoch #foxnews #newscorp #oracle #foxcorp
SoftBank Group’s shares jumped as much as 8% on Tuesday on bets that the tech investor would be able to capitalize on its yearslong focus on artificial intelligence. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/08/12/companies/softbank-shares-surge-ai/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #companies #softbank #ai #foxconntechnologygroup #stargate #openai #oracle

"Don't make the mistake of anthropomorphizing Larry Ellison" 😁
I'm guessing this quote is pretty famous. Here's a good presentation by Bryan Cantrill about the history of SunOS, Solaris and OpenSolaris, up to the point that Oracle tried to kill it and illumos happened.

“The Late Show” and its competitors are not a public good, and CBS isn’t required to subsidize something that isn’t serving their interests. But even still, it’s worth mourning a type of show premised on the idea that we all lived in a shared reality, one that a gifted bridger of increasingly broad gaps between us might make coherent and make funny. “The Late Show” wasn’t built for these times; one dreads imagining the type of show that would be.“

For #Mastodon types, think of the new CBS as the #Oracle channel, driven by an explicit right-wing agenda.

🐑 Nearly 3 out of 4 Oracle Java users got audited in 3 years
｢ Oracle introduced a paid subscription for Java in September 2018, and in January 2023, it decided to switch its pricing model to per employee rather than per user, creating a steep price hike for many users. In July 2023, Gartner recorded users experiencing price increases of between two and five times when they switched to the new licensing model ｣

Trotz gesetzlicher Vorgaben setzt der Bund weiterhin stark auf proprietäre #Software statt auf #OpenSource.
Milliarden fließen an US-Konzerne wie #Microsoft und #Oracle, während digitale #Souveränität und Anpassungsfähigkeit leiden.
OSS wäre oft günstiger, transparenter und sicherer. Schleswig-Holstein zeigt bereits, wie ein Wechsel gelingen kann. Die Bundespolitik hingegen bleibt zögerlich – auch wegen massiven Lobbyismus.
