    Internet commentators are dumbasses. Nothing new here. Point and laugh at them, and move on. They don’t matter, they’re idiots. Source: I’m a dumbass.

    If anyone is curious where this leads to, I will happily point to China, Kazakhstan and Russia as prime examples. Can’t wait to have our very own Roskomnadzor MITMing everything an…

    Pardon my French. Eat a bag of dicks. Of course you didn’t advocate for the bans of open weight models. I will concede that. It’s only the at you did literally everything else that…

    Wait, only now you realised that the “do no evil” meant jack shit? How blind and ignorant really are you? Let me attempt to save you from another horrifying realisation: it has har…

    What’s the point of this useless exercise? Once you optimise for G forces, speed, cost, lethality - you end up with a missile. We have those already. And we know this already. Give…

    Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. The way to fight piracy is to offer a better service than the pirates. Simple as.
