imagine a fully integrated AI future where being banned means you are now economically useless. everybody around you is a superhuman living in the future but you violated TOS and now are cut off. your smart glasses that showed you a beautiful utopia? the color has left them. you are forced to live in a bleak gray world. you are forced to look your wife in her actual face and she is not happy with you. you are digging holes with a spoon while everybody else is building skyscrapers with an army of bots. this is the real doomer catastrophe open source is the only way to protect your freedom, your economic viability & your ability to tell these companies to fuck right off. a few months ago openAI and anthropic were desperately begging the admin to make it legal for them to collaborate. if they got their way, one TOS violation on either platform would send you directly to the sunken place.
banned for reverse engineering work? that’s wild oh well, -$500, and a bunch of banked resets) but gained motivation to get 3 more machines and finish my cluster. i have never used openai to exploit or find vulnerabilities, only local reverse engineering which tripped daybreak.

Can you imagine the horror of being able to walk through your safe suburban neighborhood and go to a cafe where you see your friends and neighbors?

"zoning" freaks are so ideologically cucked and are fucking shit up for all of us. Life is better in every conceivable way with bars and restaurants that look like houses sprinkled throughout the neighborhood. It's part of what makes other countries feel "magical" to us.

Missouri is its own thing. It surpasses any “regional identity” it is the ultimate culmination of America itself. Missouri is the American dream
This is a very fair ranking of Midwestern states.

If Massie were to run for president as a 3rd party, he’d clear 5% trigger federal matching funds and in so doing create a durable new lane in politics, if he got 10% (very doable) that party would legally become a major party. In the course of getting that 5%+, he’d build an email list of millions and assemble a new donor class. Could you then from that dataset find 4-5 guys in purple, winnable districts to elect to the house as a wedge that can shut the whole congress down if they dont give us peace and address spending and the debt? Could you arrange that party in such a way that it could endorse Rs when that makes sense, endorse Ds if that ever makes sense, or run its own people and thus weaponize its ballot presence into torqueable leverage? I think not only can it be done, but I think it is far more likely to happen and with less effort and money than winning a primary dominated by out of touch boomers and where the coalition that would be assembled in the general is constrained out of the process.

Nicolas Cage says he hasn’t agreed to ‘NATIONAL TREASURE 3’ despite director Jon Turteltaub saying otherwise. “You got to get these microphones out of these directors' hands… Ben Gates is going after the Epstein files. I'll make that movie.”

To hear judges echo sentiments I shared with my local county commission in 2022 is a particular kind of satisfaction. Flock is a search; turn it the fuck off.
Yesterday, the Fifth Circuit heard oral argument in a case about whether using ALPRs (Flock and Motorola) was a Fourth Amendment "search." The gov't says "no" for two reasons. The oral argument shows there are serious problems with both arguments. 🧵

A federal district judge just declared that Flock camera systems violate the Fourth Amendment! Applying Chatrie, the court concludes that extensive camera networks engage in unlawful "indiscriminate mass surveillance." A major ruling. storage.courtlistener.com/re…

Every third scene is just this
Ben Affleck reveals he used AI for his upcoming movie 'ANIMALS'. “I used [AI] for lots of things in that movie. I’m a little bit hesitant to point out what they are — or even talk about it — because in my business, we’re trying to foster the illusion of reality, right?” Affleck further stated that he doesn’t believe AI will ever provide the ability for a filmmaker to “type [a prompt] in and make a movie that people want to see.” (The Hollywood Reporter)

They waited five years after these rolled out across the state to pretend to care that every law enforcement agency in the country knows when you leave your wife and children home alone. They will never take the dragnet out. The people will rip them out.
Our executive order is the first step in creating safeguards against abuse of ALPR data, while still understanding that these systems have proven to be an incredibly effective crime-fighting tool at a time when many law enforcement agencies are experiencing very significant officer shortages. I want to thank Director Mark James and the @MoPublicSafety team for their work on this guidance alongside law enforcement partners from across the state. kctv5.com/2026/10/01/missour…

Scariest robot I've seen so far. Six or seven of these things tracking you across terrain, sheesh. Pogo stick demon nightmares. – at Farmington, MO
What if a drone could hop instead of constantly flying? 👀🤖 HopTo Technology’s Hopcopter combines flying and jumping into one unusual robotic platform. The idea is simple: use hopping for ground movement and flight when needed, creating a robot designed for complex terrain. HopTo is showcasing its technology at IROS 2026. It looks unusual… but could this be the future of robots built for rough terrain? 🏢 Company: @HopTo_Tech 🎥 Media: @ErenChenAI ( X ) ⚠️ This content is shared for informational purposes only.

Legalize flock vandalism.
A modest proposal: anyone charged with damaging a Flock/ALPR camera can only be convicted by a jury that has been informed of its unquestioned power to acquit against the evidence to prevent injustice—no plea bargaining. Good luck getting a unanimous guilty verdict from an honestly instructed jury.
