I feel like if you’re going to have Draconian laws such as this, you should have to be able to prove that the criminal knew the consequences of their actions before doing so. If not, they should be given a non-death sentence with an explicit warning on the record that next time it will be a death sentence.

Are they more efficient? It’s like saying a jet is faster than a tortoise otherwise.

Weirdly I saw the title and was going to suggest making a search engine to only return sites with low traffic until I realised what this post was advertising.

Scam Altman: “Oh no - the bots are 2 good. Gaze into my black hole pls”

Scam Altman: Literally gave birth to the bot technology.

I bought a game server once that was hosted on a VPS and I didn’t bother doing much security setup for the first 12 hours (fail2ban etc). I was SSH-ing into it so the address was kind of ‘open’, but not listed anywhere.

Got over 300 failed SSH attempts in 12 hrs before I set up fail2ban and set up keys. Just massive botnets scouring addresses. (The game server never took off so it’s actually now being used as a honeypot named like a payment node so I can report a bunch).

The worry is more the automation. Someone could cast an extremely wide net and find vulnerabilities that people didn’t even know could be vulnerabilities. If you could run 1000 agents each one with the ability of a network/SE expert, you can steal a lot of things very quickly.

I’ve heard a lot of the times the odds are stacked in the streamers favour. It’s worth the hit for the casino to get people to join.

I won a tiny bit on the first game (like £10 up maybe) but at no point did I believe that a game of odds would possibly allow me to win anything meaningful.

I would equate the experience to burning a £50 note.

Have you ever had a dream that you, um, you had, your, you- you could, you’ll do, you- you wants, you, you could do so, you- you’ll do, you could- you, you want, you want him to do you so much you could do anything?

The victors of WW2.

It’s almost like we name the war after the location where the fighting takes place.

I was down in winter once and decided I’d try out the whole gambling thing. Put 50 into some website and lost it all on a shit game.

Why do people get addicted to that? I experienced no joy and the outcome was exactly what I expected.

This guy is like a reverse hostage. Countries will threaten to release him if they don’t get what they want.

I think the connections are more exciting when in the back of your mind is always the thought “I could kill them”.

Starting to feel like the people actually running the world for the last 10 years are stepping out of the shadows.

True we’d be so fucked without nukes. Although that can all change the very moment someone uses one. Then we’re most definitely fucked because of nukes.

Is every leisure activity not just wasting time if viewed through this lens?
