“I really expected this plurality thing to be more like Marvel vs Capcom or Portrait of Ruin, and less like, I don’t know…”

“logging out of one MMO character, and into another, and both of you are completely baffled why you have an inventory full of 1600 cabbages?”

The current CEO of Identity Digital (formerly Donuts Inc) named Akram Atallah, used to be the president of ICANN, the folx that “own” and “run” the internet.

Under his leadership, ICANN introduced the new generic Top Level Domain program, or new gTLD, giving the creation of a new domain ending (.com, .net, .info) a price tag of 200k USD.

Interestingly enough, the one business that jumped on this newly and artificially created market of top level domains, was Donuts Inc., whom Akram Atallah then became CEO of. Today, they own ~15% of all top level domains, as they created hundreds of shell companies to bypass the “one TLD per business” rule.

I have a list of all shell companies, public records proving they all tie back to him and Donuts Inc., and he's proudly bragging about having done this on LinkedIn so it's not really a conspiracy but known corruption.

I just remembered that I uncovered a conspiracy years ago and forgot to tell anyone beyond one news outlet that ghosted me.

Some more links, in case the previous one ”suddenly stops working”:

Perhaps a good idea might also be to share this information (that TERFs were able to blackmail the worlds biggest human rights organization to take down their factual report of anti-rights funding) to relevant wiki articles and also hint about it to our newspapers and journalists.

This is a newsworthy thing that just happened to democracy in Europe

Terf’s are really, really afraid we might see and read this major report. It documents UK based anti-trans critical organizations and their funding.

They were able to force the worlds biggest human rights organizations to pull their report down within hours from it’s release, that’s how much they don’t want the world to know.

Here it is. (Share it! Download it! Share it again!)

In engineering we say "Good, Cheap, Fast. Pick 2"'. AI is when you pick Fast twice.

Watching tech bros dream up use cases for normal people with normal lives and normal human relationships is something.

PSA: uBlock Origin's EasyList has an AI Widgets option that doesn't get turned on by default, including if you had other EasyList items selected already before it was added.

Enabling it removes a number of various AI buttons, nags, prompts, etc. across various sites.

why debug a bunch of bitfiddly C code when you can just waste 5kb of code space?

I was dreading have to port and test some finicky code from python to C but then I realized that for my uses, there's only 201 possible inputs to the function, each of which results in like 24 bytes of output

I can just make my python code enumerate them all, stick them in an array, and now the C code never needs to generate shit

wait I just realized I could avoid having to be smart by just being stupid harder
