Look into the black cube of Saturn.

(btw, it’s everywhere, even the kaaba)


Sure, ban everyone that uses em dashes from the digital commons. That will certainly stop the existential threat to your livelihood.

Sarcasm aside—there is no reliable way to prove this. So it begs the question: you really care if something is AI generated? Or is this just an another excuse to silence people you don’t like?

You know, those people. The ones who didn’t win a full ride to <prestigious university> or pay a fortune for a sheet of paper. The ones who haven’t spent thousands of man hours handcrafting a <free-and-open-source-cloud-native-hypermedia-aware-RESTful-NoSQL-API> framework implemented in Rustfuck, a new language that you made in your free time that borrows from Rust and Brainfuck (but they wouldn’t know about it).

(this is to anyone reading, mostly rhetorical, not dang in particular)


1) This isn't the digital commons.

2) We really care if something is AI generated.

3) Most people here aren't "those" people.


This seems like proof to me that Safe Browsing is about surveillance, not protection.

“lipgloss”?

More desperate virtue signaling and gatekeeping.

“Look at me and the code that took me eons to perfect. It’s handcrafted and genuine.”

Newsflash: nobody cares, especially if it’s expensive, time consuming, or doesn’t work. They also don’t care about “artisanal” PDO cheese with a 30% tariff that still tastes like shit.

“The posers are stealing our thunder. Forgery!! They terk r jerbs!”

Sink or swim. You decide.


That’s intriguing. I have the same card, maybe I should give it a go. Curious about your CPU/RAM/storage capacity as well.

Any resources for configuring the local setup?

My entire home media stack is a single compose file in a WSL distro so it would be cool if local LLM worked the same way.


The advent of AI may shape up to be just like the automobile.

At first, it's a pretty big energy hog and if you don't know how to work it, it might crash and burn.

After some time, the novelty wears off. More and more people begin using it because it is a massive convenience that does real work. Luddites who still walk or ride their bike out of principle will be mocked and scoffed.

Then the mandatory compliance will come. A government-issued license will be required to use it and track its use. This license will be tied to your identity and it will become a hard requirement for employment, citizenship, housing, loans, medical treatment, and more. Not having it will be a liability. You will be excluded from society at large if you do not comply.

Last will come the AI-integrated brain computer interface. You won't have any choice when machine-gun-wielding Optimus robots coral you into a self-driving Tesla bus to the nearest FEMA camp to receive your Starlink-connected Neuralink N1 command and control chip. You will be decapitated if you refuse the mark of the beast. Rev 20:4

That's just an American thing, I've never owned a car and most people of my age I know haven't either.


That's fair. The public infrastructure in other places around the world is a lot more hospitable to other methods of transportation.

That could be any of hundreds of current and former students. It's not legal to do investigations like this since it ends up with a bunch of innocent people getting caught up in the surveillance dragnet, but they do it anyway and use a strategy called "parallel construction" to build a legal case against the suspect that coincidentally incriminates them for the primary crime.


This is extremely sad. My heart goes out to his family, friends, students, and peers.

Although this was probably a random act of violence, it makes me wonder.

As a nuclear scientist, could he have been involved in any sensitive research?

Maybe he "knew too much" and was deemed a NatSec/InfoSec threat by certain clandestine groups? It wouldn't be the first time...


I highly recommend starting with John. John 3 and John 14 are some of my favorites.
