- Comment on Head of the Signal app threatens to withdraw from Europe 3 weeks ago:
If they can lobby they’ll just lobby to get all their competitors’ data after it passes.
- Comment on TikTok To Be Sold To Trump’s Right Wing Billionaire Buddies And Converted Into A Propaganda Mill 5 weeks ago:
US media fell for it again award. This is how Trump always negotiates he announces a “deal” that’s actually just his initial offer and then calls up whoever it is and begs them to play along and not embarrass him because he already announced it, which works on NYC construction contractors but Xi doesn’t give a shit.
- Comment on Tesla sales plunge 40% in Europe as Chinese EV rival BYD's triple 1 month ago:
Hydro Quebec invented BYD’s battery technology, the only reason they licensed it to BYD in the first place is nobody else was going to do anything with it.
- Comment on Is "AI" the end of truth? 2 months ago:
Yes but not because of generated videos. Cop just shoots you and the nearest bystander says “grok what happened” and their camera glasses say “What an intelligent question!!! It looks like someone was just nonviolently apprehended for a serious crime!!! You’re so pretty!!!” Then they ask grok if they can cross the street now and get hit by a truck.
- Comment on UK households could face VPN 'ban' after use skyrockets following Online Safety Bill 2 months ago:
People can be banned from airlines but they get banned for the same reasons they do in the US, like getting drunk on the plane and punching someone. Or like how the US bans people who owe child support from getting a passport, judges in China are allowed to ban people with unpaid child support or big enough unpaid fines from state owned airlines until they pay.

There are ways to encode images that make it easier to isolate differences in cropping and resolution and rotation. Like how if you wanted to search for color filtered images you could just throw out the color and compare them in black and white.
- Comment on Sign me up 3 months ago:
He’s liberal and a piece of shit and hates Zohran. The “satire” is he did a racist sexual harassment tweet about Zohran’s wife which he’s very proud of because it got him a lot of angry engagement so he’s trying to call back to it to get more attention.
