This is it. Theyve been going after encrypted messaging apps for a long time, ig they realized theyre not getting anywhere and figured to just hit it head on.
The internet has always circumvented this kind of shit, just look at TPB. The ones who are getting really beaten up by this is the older generations and the ones lacking technical know-how.

What do you even mean. You are contradicting yourself. “We shouldnt blame AI or the companies because they cant be controlled” but the companies and AI itself is supposed to handle the safety regulations? What type of regulations do you seriously expect them to restrict themselves with if they know there is no way they cant guarantee safety? The legislation must come outside of the business and restrict the industry from releasing half-baked ass-garbage that is potentially harmful to the public.

Are you deadass saying we should let ChatGPT itself and the companies that ship it form its own safety guidelines? Because that went really well with the Church Rock incident…

Tell me a country which has good AI regulations and proper safety regulations for applications of AI then?
- Comment on OpenAI Is Giving Exactly the Same Copy-Pasted Response Every Time Time ChatGPT Is Linked to a Mental Health Crisis 1 week ago:
Except there are no guidelines or safety regulations in place for AI…

“Ugrh guys, we dont know how this machine works so we should definetly install it in every corporation, home and device. If it kills someone we shouldnt be held liable for our product.”
Not seeing the irony in this is beyond me. Is this a troll account?
If you cant guarantee the safety of a product, limit or restrict its use cases or provide safety guidelines or regulations you should not sell the product. It is completely fair to blame the product and the ones who sell/manifacture it.

Kinda clears up his motives when he doesnt even know the name of the countries, even the worlds, largest company. Well fucking done, Mr. Clownident.
- Comment on When will we have reached enough productivity? 2 weeks ago:
This is what I find fascinating about capitalism. It builds on the premise of increasing profit by increasing efficiency and quantity. With that mindset we should strive to improve efficiency until no one needs to work and everything is automated and autonomous, no? That would be the peak of efficiency? But then how would people Pat for the products being produced? They cant, it needs to be free, since no one has a salary because theyre not working. But then the CEOs wouldnt make money. So theres no incentive unless your goal is not monetary but to improve the ultimate wellbeing of humanity. Its inherently a flawed concept since the main incentive is monetary, yet we refuse to accept what must be the ultimate goal to be able to keep power above others.
And yes, i know this is very simplified. But still explain to me why we do mass layoffs in favor of AI slop if the incentive is not entirely monetary and for the sake efficiency and or cutting costs. Explain how and who will sirvive the further we go along? Capitalism at its core makes the rich the survivors. There wont be infinite recursions of 10x productivity revolutions because the workers will die off in the process.

- Comment on Home server advice 3 weeks ago:
Sorry for not being able to answer until now. From what i can summarize a dGPU seems useless for my case. It also seems like a 11th gen i5 is the way. I wonder, does RAM speeds matter? If i can get a mini or micro ATX board and hook up an i5 with a good amount of DDR4 RAM i think i can get away cheaply. Will probably start off with a small M.2 and see if i can hook up my HDD later.

When will we replace influencers with AI? Seems to generate equal amounts of slop.
- Comment on The Switch 2: Is it worth buying? 1 month ago:
No, completely understand that ofcourse. But Nintendo fans prove time and time again they are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome by talking down the people who’ve had enough of Nintendos bs and lovingly run back to purchase the next overpriced and underperforming console.
Dont get me wrong, i completely understand why non-tech people dont want to put up with it and that we techies are a minority. What baffles me is the undending devotion the Nintendo fans have for their abuser.
- Comment on An earnest question about the AI/LLM hate 1 month ago:
Ethics and morality does it for me. It is insane to steal the works of millions and re-sell it in a black box.
The quality is lacking. Literally hallucinates garbage information and lies, which scammers now weaponize (see Slopsquatting).
Extreme energy costs and environmental damage. We could supply millions of poor with electricity yet we decided a sloppy AI which cant even count letters in a word was a better use case.
The AI developers themselves dont fully understand how it works or why it responds with certain things. Thus proving there cant be any guarantees for quality or safety of AI responses yet.
Laws, juridical systems and regulations are way behind, we dont have laws that can properly handle the usage or integration of AI yet.
Do note: LLM as a technology is fascinating. AI as a tool become fantastic. But now is not the time.
- Comment on The Switch 2: Is it worth buying? 1 month ago:
This. Still dont understand how people actively let Nintendo piss in their face and shit in their mouth for nothing but enjoyment. Nintendo fans just give off an immense aura of “briandead coonsomer” to me. Literally just emulate it. Same game, better performance and cheaper, wheres the downsides?

Good tips. I mostly use it for YouTube and watching movies on Jellyfin. I already have a a PiHole set up so thanks for posting the domains, will make sure those are blocked properly.
And I will also look into rooting the WebOS, blocking the YouTube ads would be a godsend 🙏

- Comment on The World's First Mass-Produced Flying Car Is Here and It Costs $1 Million 2 months ago:
Apart from all the discussion regarding how stupid this is, how the fuck would this even fit on a road? I doubt the wings would be durable enough if they were retractable. This shit would take up 2 lanes and fuck up any and all intersections. And as a added bonus, it would fuck with everyone elses perception who are used to the distances you keep away from regular vehicles when theyre turning in front of you. This shitheap wouldnt even make it to the airport because someone will probably misjudge the turn radius with the wings and fuck it up on the way there.

An extension of uBlock Origin. It does the same thing but also clicks on every ad before it removes it.

My dad has been talking about wanting something like AdNauseam for years, i was very happy when i found it. The extra mile would probably be to expand it with a VPN and constantly spam clicks, clear cache, switch IP and obfuscate data. Now we just wait for someone with enough time to build it…

Happy I got AdNauseam after uBlock Origin. Deleted my facebook a year ago, shit is an AI slopfest built upon the greed and manipulation of every part of the chain. Defcon 31 has a good talk that brings this up. “Disenshittify or die” by Cory Doctrow, cann recommend to watch.
