He's saying that cheaters who probably play on Windows, used hooks dedicated for Linux/Proton to bypass anti-cheat code.

I don't think socialists like Joseph Stalin. I'm saying that it's a really unhinged thing to say.

I'm not an American so I'm not following FOX or any other American media that closely. But yes, I do remember him on FOX, and that he used a lot of extremely aggressive faces and language when talking about the liberals. I'm not sure if he's actually changed his tactics, he just shifted targets.

Doesn't really matter, at least not morally and probably not legally.

If you pay for sex you're a sleazeball. If you pay someone who says they just turned 18 you're a moron. In addition to being a pedophile.

Please no I'm trying to live a normal, happy life.

I haven't exactly followed him closely but I don't think he's mild at all. He has some really extreme views on citizenship, ethnicity, religion, abortion, gender and so on. He's got a lot of weird clips talking about occultism and demons.

He does however talk a lot about regretting being a shill for the Iraq war back in the day, and that he doesn't want to repeat that mistake with Venezuela and Iran. I think that carries a lot of weight for lots of people.

My point is not to try to whitewash Tucker Carlson, I'm just saying there's a substantial difference between him and someone like Ben Shapiro.

As I mentioned, this dude said he admires Joseph Stalin. I don't think it's wise to to absorb or internalize what he says. But there's a split in MAGA and I think it's easy to see why Tucker's faction is going to command the grassroots.

I was under the impression that the real costs are associated with training the models, in the belief that they'll arrive at a self-improving AI that will explode in functionality and basically become the most valuable asset on the planet, especially for governments and armies. In the meantime, you offer services to users at a loss, in order to gather unique data that isn't open to your competitors.

That's what excuses this level of investment.

I'm not implying that he is. However I think he is genuine in his criticism of war, and by extension Israel. And I think that this point of view having a platform in the US right is going to have a profound impact on the MAGA movement.

This is pretty much always the case when you start a new job. It takes time adjusting to the environment, the people and everything else. It's going to get better, it always does.

However, skipping proper food and exercise is counter-productive, so do make an effort to cover those needs.

I actually found that interview really interesting, or at the very least entertaining.

First of all, Tucker Carlson pretty much forced Nick Fuentes to agree that racism is not compatible with Christianity. They also talked a lot about Gaza, with Nick Fuentes mentioning that he thought it was hilarious that the neo-conservative right doesn't realize that he opposes Israel for the exact same reason that the left does, i.e. not because of anti-Semitism but because he genuinely thinks that genocide is abhorrent. He then shifted gear and said he was a huge fan of Joseph Stalin.

I really don't think that Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens care at all about sponsorships or donor money at this point. They're doubling down on criticizing military action on Venezuela and Iran, they're insinuating that Charlie Kirk was murdered by Zionists for his views on Israel and demand that funding for Israel is withdrawn, and they are openly criticizing Trump. They're probably going to win this civil war for the mantle of MAGA and will likely be vindicated in the end.

It's great that smart people are working on this, but I don't think we can expect hobbyists to make a useful OSS implementation of smartphones. Especially since there is so much dependence on the hardware. We either need a company that can throw some weight behind it, or just straight up governments that value it (e.g. from a sovereignty point of view).
