OpenAI won't make their illegal activities public by themselves.

Why is nobody in jail for this? Oh, I see, it was an AI agent. So nobody is responsible. What's going on here? Do we see the undermining of the legal system by putting LLMs as intermediaries between us and our bad deeds?

They have nothing to do with Cloudflare. Their challenge page is only made to look like the one from Cloudflare. It's entirely their own page. Only the reCaptcha challenge is not theirs. And the reason why nobody gets redirected is bec

What a waste of energy LLM training is. Meanwhile Himalayan mountains are crashing down. I love this world. It's so idiotic.

Marc Andreessen helped establish the modern web browser, he has always been an Ayn Rand fan for example. But politics wasn't that important back then, I guess? And I just think there simply were not a lot of opportunities to gain some

Then why chose a distro that is being maintained by one person. I would NEVER recommend a Windows/Mac and first time Linux user to switch to such a distro. Not just his political views no quite practical implications are key here: what

Ugh, gosh really? I looked at one of the videos of the... eh excentric developer of the distro where he was presenting 4.0 and I was wondering about that retro neon design of background images he seemed to adore so much. I was wondering why

As long as people are using X and linking to it this pain will just go on. If you have an account there you will not notice how unusable it is for others. And that's by design.
