And we’re mostly not religious at all.

We have Ramadan here now. No one cares. Arab influencer come and make videos and are shocked

Everyone eats and drinks during the days we don’t care


I was looking forward to good UX accessing HBO through Netflix. Too bad, but looking forward to good UX accessing HBO, and paramount (?) some day down the line through Netflix when this converges.

Iran and russia are pretty black. Without any white

Israel only has outposts in Lebanese territory.

In Syria, Israel had a buffer zone since 1974. Last year they said the agreement had "collapsed" and went on to occupy even more territoru: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/26/israel-carries-out-...

Palestine is occupied.

Do you think all people in your country should get the same rights?


Last I checked, no one dared to attack them before they had nukes because of China's promise (made good in 1950) to use their military to defend the regime in Pyongyang, and the massive array of conventional artillery pointing at Seoul just across the DMZ, where 25% of South Korea's population resides.

This is exactly what was claimed in Iraq, and while I'm sure you can find some few idiots or optimists, it is completely false at the relevant level. There is no such thing, and has never been such a thing, as a country welcoming an invasion by another country, at least not in the last few hundred years since nation states developed, and since explosives became the major means of war.

This is especially false in Iran in relation to USA intervention, since both the democrats and the fundamentalists still remember how the USA & UK deposed their last democratic leaders and (re) installed the brutal dictatorship of the Shah, who both parts of Iranian society hate and remeber being oppressed by today.


That same concept utilizing a cow filesystem would be neat I think, you'd be able to skip your hashing and replace the sqlite with hardlinks, effectively versioning passively whenever something was written to

But now that I think about it, its too obvious not to exist already. Probably just dont know about it yet •́ ‿ , •̀


You dont speak for Iran.

It doesn't mean anything. It is just there to be there and catch low-hanging RL reward granting eyeballs.

This is great insight - using Qubes as a "Super-OS" over other OSes. How does it fly performance-wise, what HW are you on or recommend ?

Is it just another distraction from the Trump/Epstein files?

It does seem that military action is correlated with increased coverage in the media of the Trump/Epstein files.


Yup. I’m not expert so maybe I’m completely off base, but if I were OpenAI or Anthropic I’d likely just hire 1000 highly skilled engineers across multiple disciplines, tell them to build something in their domain of expertise, then critique the model’s output, iteratively work on guardrails for a month or two until the model one-shots the problem, and package that into the new release.

Granted, but there are open source alternatives that don’t have the same obsession with meaningless digital signatures. Turnstile is just a terrible product.

Haha you literally asking me to leave my roots and friends and family and I have a weak arguments? Your arguments detached from reality.

I cut my salary to be involved politically, I believe in a future of peace. You can rest assured I engage in what’s right far more than you


So you rather have a world controlled by the Chinese axis?

I mean in the sense that they seem to literally be random names. I don't even think they're people associated with Palantir in anyway.

Huge and great news. Sri Lanka is hoping to get certification later this year too.

As an aside, there are probably lots of companies that serve the government seriously considering cutting the government as a customer.

Simply because the money/efficienct they will lose from cutting Claude will surpass the revenue they get from the gov


The funniest or perhaps saddest (depending on your view) is that the "principles" we're talking about and apparently celebrating here are that they don't want to do DOMESTIC surveillance, and they don't want FULLY autonomous kill bots... Yet, because according to the CEO the models aren't there yet.

Meaning, they're a-okay with:

- Mass surveillance of non-US peoples (and let's be completely real here, they're in bed with Palantir already, so they're obviously okay with mass surveillance of everyone as long as they're not the ones that will be held culpable)

- Autonomous murder bots. For now they want a human in the loop to rubberstamp things, but eventually "when the models improve" enough, they're just fine and dandy with their AIs being used as autonomous weapons.

What the fuck are the principles we're talking about here? Why are they being celebrated for this psychotic viewpoint, exactly?



Obviously you would have some estimation from government-authorized auditors. Yes there is the usual risk of bribes etc with the money at play here but then the risks for the corporation climb as well.

The Palestinian people exist and have very real and justified grievances.

There's hardly anything comparable in Europe.


To add to this: anyone who still does not see that Israel is by and far the most dangerous rogue state in the region is (at best) blinded by propaganda.

Iran has repeatedly demonstrated restraint and pragmatism throughout these aggressions on their sovereignty, starting with Israel’s strike on their consulate in Damascus.


> I'm not sure what's the logic behind that PR-wise

Part of it is the stated idea that Israel still has public support. That such an exchange, even if Israel launches the first strike, would get more support. This is probably misjudging the actual public support for Israel, which is much lower amongst the general public than amongst (esp. Republican) political circles.

The other part of it is that Trump has surrounded himself with card-carrying nazis, who have not at all been subtle about their desires to harm jews.

> but regardless, it didn't happen.

That Israel didn't launch the first strike and instead insisting on a joint strike (despite otherwise being constantly warmongering), suggests to me that it's the latter 'part' of the reason that had a lot of weight here.


>Normal people are starting to call themselves goyim and aren’t afraid to call themselves antisemites anymore.

Normal people distinguish between Israel and Jews and call themselves antizionists. It's Zionists who blur the distinction.

There are several countries throughout history where the citizens have been absolutely obsessed with their own race and considered the crusader state to be the sole representative of it. It never ended well.


Not true, prior to 2022 February Russia controlled small parts of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts, now they control them almost entirely, as well as good chunks of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts.

Drone strikes picked up, obviously as that technology became more and more mature. They're cheaper to operate and don't put a pilot in harms way. So that's kinda expected?

Agreed with most of the rest you said though


And an abuser, but they keep covering that one up.

You're probably thinking of Actix and the unsafe/TechEmpower thing? I've never seen Axum involved in any notable drama.
