I mean, people like you insist on this, but I can’t evaluate the truthfulness of that claim since I haven’t used a Meta product since Facebook in like 2009 lol.

But sure man, glad the mega company is really working out for you!

20 years ago I was at a university that was studying mRNA bombing as a way to deliver “impossible” vaccines. We were young millennials, still dreaming of a better future. We really thought that 80% of cancers would have effective vaccines by the time we were 50.

Instead, most of us are repeating that MMR is safe, moving up our first colonoscopies, and exhaustedly reminding our parents not to believe anything they see on the Internet. If this isn’t the worst timeline it’s an honorable fuckin’ mention.

Uh, why the fuck would such a device ever be allowed on school property?

The project would help OpenAI move toward owning AI infrastructure, although ⁠its ability to fund large-scale commitments remains under scrutiny because the company is unprofitable despite a valuation of $852 billion.

Fantasy league valuation, you fucking muppet. Go public, open the ledger and we’ll see what it’s actually worth.

In a phone call on 31 July, Vance complained that Ukrainian strikes on tankers carrying oil from Kazakhstan were hurting US companies and destabilising oil prices. He told Zelenskyy to stop them, the newspaper said, citing unnamed Ukrainian officials.

…

Since the phone call, Ukraine’s unmanned systems forces have not attacked ships carrying oil from Kazakhstan via the Caspian Pipeline Consortium terminal. But they have continued to pound other targets in Novorossiysk, which is home to Russia’s Black Sea naval fleet.

Pretty outstanding maneuver by Ukraine here. One way or another they’ll get the interceptor missiles.

America is having a hard time with its little war, so Ukraine finds a way to signal that it wants to help alleviate the economic damage. Meanwhile, they continue to actively hunt down Russia’s shadow fleet, which must be incredibly entertaining to European allies who’ve been dealing with their bullshit for decades.

As someone with previous defense connections, I’d been wondering when we’d see this.

ITAR has severely restricted access to nav system tech export, but there was always this open question about reckoning position by visual cues rather than GPS + dead reckoning. We all knew it was technically feasible, but we assumed that having “visual” cues was further out because AI at the time wasn’t up to the task.

The answer is the same, though. Nvidia, willing or not, is now a defendant in an unjust war, and must be subpoena’d by the ICC. At a minimum, they should be immediately sanctioned by foundry specialists (like ASML) until they are prepared to account for how, exactly, this tech ended up in a Russian missile.

Epstein victim Anya - not her real name - previously told the BBC that Siad had introduced her to Epstein.

“It was a complete set-up,” she said, describing Siad as “essentially a professional trafficker”.

During one email to Epstein released in the files, Siad wrote in badly spelled English: “In This busyness I feel like fisherman some time I cache quick, some time no fish.”

It’s a god damned shame he died in his home instead of an interrogation room.
