@anitachabria Thanks for covering this!

Commentary: China-backed Big Pork wants to override 63% of California voters. Even conservatives are mad latimes.com/politics/newsl…

@KingVelesI Considering economics dictate that the more intensive the farming, the more profitable it is, it means that the industry is only going to grow Saying “if only they would do it humanely” does not help the reality So the only option is to make it more economical

Transhumanists would rather fill the world with these nightmarish abominations than accept the fact that their morality is fundamentally flawed. There is NOTHING morally wrong with slaughtering animals. Livestock can be raised and slaughtered 100% humanely. They can live happy, healthy lives, and have painless, stress-free deaths. I know this for a fact, as that's how we do it on our farm. In nature, prey animals depend on predators to keep their numbers in check, and prevent them from destroying their own environment and, thus, themselves through overpopulation. In ethical animal husbandry, humans have simply taken on the role of a supremely benevolent apex predator that grants their "prey" lives and deaths that are far, FAR better than those their wild counterparts get to experience. Thus, converting wilderness to farms already results in a HUGE decrease of animal suffering, and on truly ethical farms, animals don't suffer at all. Hence, I believe pushing for cruelty-free farming is a much better and healthier strategy than trying to spawn horrific, brainless flesh robots in an effort to solve a non-existent moral problem.

@johannesmkx @kaimicahmills Does your wife not talk too much?

As soon as this technology exists it will be abused to produce headless human females for rape. Laws will have to get passed to forbid it, but it will happen anyway and you won't stop it. Imagine some country allowing it. Or men buying headless women online. Please, let's not be Satanic and bury this idea. Science people need to take more responsibility.

the ultimate solution is through technology we engineer what has been called a bodyoid: brainless animal bodies that provide as much meat as we desire without harming any sentient beings this would transform medicine - the same platform would allow us to grow organs on demand, eliminate transplant waiting lists, and produce perfectly matched tissues for each patient experimental therapies could be tested on full biological systems without involving conscious animals, regenerative medicine would accelerate as entire replacement tissues become manufacturable in the same way that agriculture turned food from a scarce resource into an abundant one, engineered bodyoids would turn biological material into infrastructure - meat without slaughter, organs without donors, and medical research without sentient suffering

@Pirat_Nation A truck full of CDs driving down the highway also has higher bandwidth than RAM Latency is important

At 28,000 MB/s, the first PCIe Gen 6 SSD is officially faster than DDR4 RAM. At 28,000 MB/s read bandwidth, it surpasses the theoretical maximum of single-channel DDR4-3200 memory (25.6 GB/s).

@kaiostephens Where is that GUI from in the screenshot?

I have setup hermes-agent with a fully local abliterated (uncensored) model I already have it creating google accounts and signing up for free trials for programs, doing things 95% of other models would not. It runs at ~25tok/s with qwen3.5-30b-a3b (huggingface.co/huihui-ai/Huih…) it's running on on a proxmox debian CT, setup was 10x easier than openclaw. nous research really cooked with this one, extremely impressive @Teknium @NousResearch

@tszzl @RobJ02 @captgouda24 What part is making a deal to serve the pentagon is 4D chess?

@RobJ02 @captgouda24 still agree w the spiritual core of what I’m saying there in principle - “supply chain risk” is fascism. just needed to integrate new information before reacting so i deleted. don’t want to interfere in 4d chess without the full story. this will end up de escalating

@tszzl’s tweets, now deleted, seemingly minutes before learning of OpenAI’s deal with the DoD. See specifically the second

@PCosmologist @forallcurious Ok but it’d be much cooler if this meant that you could change the past etc

This experiment does not show that light travels through time as a physical dimension It shows that light responds to time dependent modulation of the medium that encodes information in the RON network In NMSI there are no “temporal slits” as objects in time There are phase windows in which propagation conditions change What the experiment actually demonstrates Light behaves as a coherent informational flow When the propagation conditions are switched on and off in time interference appears exactly as with spatial slits The pattern depends on phase continuity not on particles choosing paths Thus the interference is generated by gating the transmission channel not by splitting a particle in time Interpretation in NMSI terms The vacuum is a subquantum informational medium RON Changing boundary conditions in time modifies the allowed propagation modes The photon manifests according to these constraints No travel backward or forward in time is required Only dynamic phase selection of the informational carrier Wave particle duality emerges from how information is allowed to propagate not from intrinsic ambiguity of the photon The experiment confirms that interference is a property of coherent informational geometry under time varying constraints It does not prove that time itself contains physical slits or that particles traverse multiple times simultaneously For more info: osf.io/ce5ud/files/os…

🚨: Scientists perform first ever double slit experiment in time sending light through temporal slits to reveal wave and particle behavior in a whole new way

@vxunderground This happened to me too

> be me > can't math at all > suffered in math in school > mathematical dyslexia > weird symbols scare me > can program though > self taught c programmer > been programming for like, 20 years > see spoopy calculus thingy > ask ai thingy > "can translate calculus to c?" > ai thingy responds > "programming just discrete mathematics lol r u dumb? of course" > shows me calculus thingy translated to C > makes literally perfect sense > look inside > calculus, discrete mathematics, algebra > all make perfect sense Wtf why did the public school system make math seem so crazy

@solvictor77 This looks great. I’d fund this myself I think

@BenedictSlaney Claude:

@questmoosa You can take pyruvate dehydrogenase inhibitors like dichloroacetate to down regulate glycolysis. It’s been used for a long time. It also increases oxidative phosphorylation

One interesting study found that inhibiting glycolysis switches cells back towards oxidative phosphorylation. Why is this important? Reliance on aerobic glycolysis is one of the hallmarks of cancer! Glycolysis is inhibited by: -NADH -Pyruvate -ATP -Olive leaf extract -Anti-inflammatory compounds, such as curcumin

@_aunoir @Andercot Good point. They might take over the world

@BenedictSlaney @Andercot It might turn out to be relevant for the people who work with 1200lb animals if suddenly those animals can't feel pain or fear. Like cows aren't a joke to be around in an un-genetically-modified state

80 billion factory farm animals are killed each year. We could gene-edit them to not feel suffering, pain, fear. And for some reason we aren't doing that?

@_aunoir @Andercot Yes. Not that it’s relevant

@BenedictSlaney @Andercot have you ever cared for or been in physical contact with livestock?

@solvictor77 Yes. Sounds like a good plan I’d be curious to flesh this out in more detail. Especially the financial parts, ROI etc, to make it feasible

@BenedictSlaney Given sufficient funding and expertise, one could use CRISPR to edit the FAAH-OUT gene into a few animal embryos. Those “founders” breed normally and the edit is heritable.

@solvictor77 Agreed, but how would you practically do the gene editing?

@BenedictSlaney Thanks, my guy. Now we are talking business. Take care of your animals and be a good shepherd. They will raise the frequency of your environment.

@alieninsect That’s awesome. You guys are awesome

@BenedictSlaney “He says here DMT might be doing the thing you say it does” That’s not a coincidence… more soon.

When I talk of interacting with “intelligent agents” in the DMT state and Donald Hoffman talks of reality as a system of interacting “conscious agents”, I can’t help but feel that we’re talking about the same thing…

@adam3us Weird that the guy who is acting compromised is in the Epstein files and is trying to pretend like it’s not happening

We must protect the tolerant minority, as it is what makes Bitcoin censorship resistant. Without censorship resistance bitcoin basically becomes like an ETF. the filter fork is an attack on the tolerant minority. it will fail, but be careful about attaching your reputation to it.
