Again, this stuff is deliberate because the American companies are run by a bunch of weirdo TESCREAL freaks who *want* to believe they're building Roko's Basilisk. You don't hear this kind of stuff from the engineering teams at z.ai or DeepSeek, and you can't accuse them of being "anti-ai".

If (& it's still a big IF) Russia does manage to occupy Ukraine, it will be a "victory" that will have Pyrrhus himself pointing & laughing at aul' Vlad. "All that to win a completely devastated patch of land? Oh yeah, TOTALLY a victory, dude"

The thing about the rich & powerful is they are terrified of stopping, because *they know what they did to get there*. They think if they lose their wealth &/or power someone else will do to them what they have done to so many. Because it doesn't occur to them that they are uniquely evil

Tucker Carlson would by his own admission below, be quite happy to be living under a Nazi régime. The Nazis did love a useless failson. Unfortunately for him, the Japanese might well have taken the US. I don't think he'd enjoy that so much, given he's thick, lazy, weak, & racist

My favourite bit of the NYT article was this:

This is the sort of BS inVESTors lap up. (It's difficult to read the "graph" but it maps "release date" on the x-axis and *model number* on the y-axis . You wouldn't make this stuff up, it would be too silly) There's a reason tech bros spent high school stuffed in lockers

I wish to G-d news media would stop reporting speculation designed to advance the agendas of old, stupid, corrupt men. Trump & Bibi are both trying to milk this, when we really don't know much about what happened yet. While I fully support gagging them, that's not doable, so just don't publish fibs

When I was a titchy bub, if anyone asked my name I would answer "Listy F-E-L-I-C-I-T-Y". I really did think that was my name because my parents were always spelling it out. Which is why I don't like using my full name to this day

“Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.” Nowhere does it say anything about pointing out Hegseth is a liability (which everyone knows), nor about hurting regressive's feelsies. Snow-fuh-lake
