Has the chancellor mentioned a bail out yet?
Look at the contrast:
Binance loses billions:
- Coinbase manually blocks addresses
- Tether and Circle freeze billions in 60 minutes
- Ripple and World Liberty coordinate in group chats
- Executives hug it out on X
A normal user loses $50k to an approval scam:
- "Blockchain transactions are irreversible, anon"
- "Code is law"
- "Have you considered reading the contract bytecode?"
- Zero help from stablecoin issuers
Decentralization for the peasants, emergency bailouts and centralized freezes for the tier-1 cartel.
There are two crypto industries, and youโre not in the protected one.
Why do all these people have cars when they only drive 5% of the time?
WAITโฆ I canโt believe Sam Altman really said this out loud about local AI: โA lot of people want local inference. And they assume that the problem is solved now because we are going to have open source models. And so we're not going to need all the stuff in the data center.
But from a global allocation perspective, actually, it's quite terrible to have everybody have a bunch of the world's limited supply of DRAM sitting in their own computer. And, being used 5% of the time.โ
this is such a bizarre thing to say in the open. I donโt get why people buying hardware for their own use is framed as a competition with data centers spending billions to buy hardware at scale.
if anyone should be complaining about how the worldโs memory is allocated, it must be the average consumers facing the skyrocketing hardware prices.
it just doesnโt make any sense.

if you want to stop your TV from spying on you, but don't want to get banned, follow these steps
1. Use less censored models, like GLM 5.3 or abliterated qwen. From OpenRouter, Venice, abliteration etc
2. Make sure your TV and pc/laptop are on the same laptop
3. Install a coding agent on your PC, like cursor or opencode
4. Enable developer options on your tv, enable USB or ABD debugging, and find your TV's ip
5. tell your agent to clone github.com/Gathin23/cleanyouโฆ or dumb TV's repos, then paste the prompt from the repo.
6. Agent will connect to TV via adb connect <TV-IP>:5555, make a backup, then disable ads, data collections, and bloatware.
7. after agent's done, it will install a clean launcher and give a restore script. after that you disable debugging on your tv.
this method will work on android or google TV, Fire TV/OS etc. rooting is harder on Tizen and webos but possible. or use DNS blocking with Pi-hole, NextDNS, AdGuard etc to block ads/spywhere
This is how you avoid getting blocked on openAI, but of course always do your own research.
at least Winston was aware of the screen's snooping.
WTF, $3000 Samsung TV has an always-on mic, automatic content recognition, geo tracking, network mapping, and ships your data to Samsung + 400 partners.
Bro Rooted a brand-new 2025 Samsung TV after noticing absurdly targeted ads.
Firmware was locked down, so zero-days it was.
Got a root shell.
then found: always-on voice service, ACR, geo, full telemetry pipeline, and four separate DRM systems.
This isnโt a bug, Itโs the product bro.

Leveraging @openstreetmap data, Argus-atlas warps DEM into hillshade, slope & land-mask rasters via @gdalorg, restyles via @ComfyUI with a cartography LoRA , stamps the painted pixels back onto the original geotransform, and cuts a PMTiles archive you can drape on a real map.
