So when I hack a bunch of companies, I go to court, pay fines, and potentially face prison time, regardless of if I notify them kindly.
But when OpenAI does it, they get… congratulations and more investment? Is that how it’s supposed to work…?

Don’t forget it’s actually beneficial for the colonized, because now their land produces 100x more goods.
(They’re getting none of that and are starving to death)


Is mister Greg Brockman serious with that signature?
Have you even read the website you’re linking?
I went through it, and there’s nothing of note there. It basically boils down to somebody calling a bunch of people weirdos, with some arbitrary claims, and links to irrelevant, even contradictory information.
On August 3rd, 2026, Louis posted a video about openly transgender Colorado state representative Brianna Titone, and in the YouTube comments posted a remark explaining his position on transgender issues, which can be paraphrased as “I think transgender women are men but I’m willing to overlook it if we have common cause”.
The ‘source’ provided here only links to the video. Good luck reading all the 423 comments, and figuring out which one is him saying anything close to that paraphrased statement.
They’re also calling Louis a weirdo for being an associate of Eron Wolf. And if you go to Eron Wolf’s entry, he’s a weirdo, because… he’s an associate of Louis Rossmann. Yeah, that’s makes perfect sense.
Eron is the modestly wealthy founder of FUTO, an organization that funds software projects. He doesn’t like the Open Source Definition (…)
This is one of the few technically accurate claims on the page, but it’s manipulative. The relevant part of FULU’s statement is:
Our use of the term “open source” thus far has been not out of carelessness, but out of disdain for OSI approved licenses which nevertheless allow developers to be exploited by large corporate interests. The OSI, an organization with confidential charter members and large corporate sponsors, does not have any legal right to say what is and is not “open source”. It is arrogant of them to lay claim to the definition.
I think it’s perfectly reasonable.
I’m guessing the website author is hoping you won’t actually click any of the links, because none of them support their claims or the points they’re trying to make.
I’d say this just looks like a billionaire-funded smear campaign.


I would rather give Signal my phone number than use a smartphone with Google services.


The mobile chip they used is nothing special, it’s a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, a 3 year old smartphone processor (certainly powerful enough to run lighter PC games, but nothing more than that. It’s kind of insane that a phone can even do that nowadays!)
Actually, you can totally run some more demanding PC games on it without any issues. A Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, so slightly weaker, is able to run The Witcher 3 at 720p, Steam Deck preset, in 30+ fps.
And that’s with several compatibility layers in between the SoC and the game.
Mobile ARM chips have come so far we might as well be using them for laptops instead of Intel or AMD (just like the recent MacBook Neo using an iPhone chip). More than good enough performance, especially in case of 8 Elite, at a fraction of the power draw.
The food they get there costs more than everything you eat in 5 years combined.
Can’t discuss the future of the younger generations on an empty, dopamine-free stomach, now can we?


Yes, the Comission is a problem, but sadly, it’s not the only problem.
The European Council is just as big of an issue. It’s mostly made up of member states’ heads of state/government, so technically it’s democratically elected, except the Comission’s president who also gets a seat there, for whatever reason.
However, members of the Council almost always push for their countries’ best interests, instead of the EU’s as a whole. And they’re an even bigger issue when they happen to be anti-EU, like about half of the current Council.
Which essentially means the only EU body that is fully democratically elected, and elected on an EU level is the Parliament. Which coincidentally has the least influence, and which isn’t free of its own issues either.
The Parliament’s current president - Roberta Metsola - appears to be friends with some American billionaires, and her husband is the head of an American lobby.
Does that sound like a conflict of interests? Well, that’s probably because it is. Usually, all MEPs are legally required to disclose such conflicts of interests, but for some reason she never had to.
In case you may be interested, she’s also anti-abortion, part of Malta’s nationalist party, and one of the main pushing forces behind Chat Control.

Well, damn. That’s honestly way more impressive than I expected from Russia. Now I’ll be reading about those instead of going to sleep lol


When a citizen’s initiative presents a serious issue, gets a record number of signatures, and provides some good, easy to implement solutions - the European Comission says it’ll do nothing, because it wants to focus on deregulation.
The same Comission is perfectly fine with implementing new, insanely vague and/or complicated laws that benefit literally nobody other than big tech companies, at the expense of everyone else.
And then the same Comission wonders why anti-EU sentiment is growing.
We’re slowly but steadily getting to a point where the EU has all the dystopian surveillance and control measures in place as China does, except without any of the benefits that come with them.


I’d say this is by far the biggest issue with EVs. Well, not necessarily with EVs, but with new cars in general, most of which happen to be EVs, and their share will only continue growing.
Sure, it’s a nice car, somewhat better for the environment, pretty cool. But it’s also a giant surveillance device that gathers more information on you than your smartphone, smart tv, and computer combined.
And it has a kill switch, too. If the government being able to remotely shut down your car wasn’t bad enough - this research shows that virtually any hacker may be able to do so as well.


All Western car makers are already shitting themselves because of Chinese cars. Have been for at least a few years now.
Even Ford’s CEO openly said that Chinese EVs are better, more technologically advanced, and cheaper than Western cars. He also said that after driving a Xiaomi car for 6 months he doesn’t want to go back to Western cars.
Again, this is the CEO of Ford.

His Windows being unlicensed makes perfect sense. Why would he give money to Microsoft? In fact, why would you?
As for the PC - there are no Russian PCs, so he has to use something foreign. DELLs are very solid, and great for the price if you get them refurbished.
Not as solid as Lenovo, which also has considerably fewer American companies in its supply chain. But maybe they just got a good deal on a bunch of DELLs.


Linux doesn’t have to be private or secure. Just look at Ubuntu.
The two bricks are besties and do everything together.


When you thought Netanyahu is the problem, but then check other Israeli political parties, and turns out he’s among the least extreme. And has better approval ratings than Hitler had towards the end of the war.
Even Gadi Eisenkot - Israel’s most likely next prime minister, whose party is apparently centrist - says any plans of a two-state solution are, quote, ‘delusions’, and openly supports the so-called settlers.
The more you learn about Israel, the better you’ll see there’s no hope for it.


Exactly this.
If any of GN’s claims were false, it’d be a very serious case of false allegations. LG could easily sue them, win quickly, get a couple million dollars in damages, and more.
The fact that they’re not suing tells us all we need to know.
ignoring climate change
More like being responsible for two thirds of all climate change, and ensuring nobody else can do anything about it.


But good luck identifying a random person.
If only there was infrastructure for identifying and tracking potential terrorists and criminals.
Nah, let’s use it for identifying and tracking protesters or police officers’ crushes.
Personally, I just don’t see any point in developing anything for closed platforms like MacOS or iOS.
At the end of the day, you’re just making Apple more money for free, on very bad terms. They have all the control; you’re just an unpaid intern.
Who knows when Apple will stop supporting half the libraries your project relies on?
Instead, you can develop for open platforms, which genuinely makes the world a slightly better place. In addition to you having a guarantee the project won’t have to shut down overnight.
