"My concern about the bans is that people will go underground. When they go underground online, bad things happen — really terrible things happen."

Tech is entering its prohibition era. We've been here before.

Governments are seeking to set restrictions on popular tech. Though well-intentioned, the bans are easier said than done.

The federal government has ABANDONED those of us dealing with Roko's Basilisks in our storm drains!!

Are mail carriers trained to deal with Roko's basilisks? They should
be TBH

No. USPS does not train mail carriers on "Roko's basilisks." That is not a federal program or
official hazard.

If you have a real mail or carrier issue, use USPS Help 7 or the Postal Inspection Service7.If
someone is in danger, call 911.

I can help with other U.S. government services if you ask a genuine question.

I'm in danger. From being aware that the federal government has
no plans to combat Roko's basiliks in my storm drains.

Awareness of a thought experiment is not a federal emergency, and there is still no U.S.
government plan about Roko's basilisks in storm drains.

.If you are in immediate physical danger, call 911.
. If you are in emotional crisis, contact the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988).

I only help with official government services. If you have a genuine federal question (mail,
benefits, passports, taxes, veterans care), ask that.

Are Linux and Open Source Un-American?
Community
by Steve Coe
on February 21, 2001

Jim Allchin, Microsoft Windows operating system chief, was quoted in an article about open source last week. I advise any Linux user to go and read it if you haven't already, as it's great comedy material.

According to the hive mind of Microsoft, open source should be made illegal. There's no way around it, this is the bottom line. Want to write your own code and release it into the community? Congratulations, come with us Sir/Madam, we have this nice little grey room for you. Don't worry about the bars on the windows, they are there for our protection in case you somehow manage to write a graphics viewer or a Perl script to terrorize the world.

Ordinarily, a mere underling like Mr. Allchin wouldn't be taken too seriously, but Microsoft speaks with one voice, and we all know who he is channeling.

As a member of the Linux and Open Source communities, I am appalled and outraged by his comments and wish to respond. The article shows Microsoft is scared. Very scared. So, will they build a better product? Nah, to hell with it, they'll just get the government to outlaw the competition.

IMO a well managed abliterated GLM 5.3 Flagship already can be "mythos at home" What it may lack in "raw shmotts" it more than makes with exceptional tool and subagent use prowess, and unusually low "toxic stochasticity" (maybe lower than fable)

i think part of the ideologizing is that what we need to do is to instantiate ideology -- which ideology? -- mathematically. we do not know how to do that. the technique we have available is not like teaching a child. it is like binding a demon. this cultivates a particular attitude towards the work

AV also has more concrete notions of safety: are people dying? The LLM safetyish discussion operates largely in fantasylands of future hypothetical harms. This is oversimplified; obviously the FSD people don't give a shit about body count and some AI safety people discuss present-tense IRL harms.
