Slop Media Network

so... I audited Garry's website after he bragged about 37K LOC/day and a 72-day shipping streak. here's what 78,400 lines of AI slop code actually looks like in production. a single homepage load of garryslist.org downloads 6.42 MB across 169 requests. for a newsletter-blog-thingy. 1/9🧵

Larry and Sergey can’t stay in California since the wealth tax as written would confiscate 50% of their Alphabet shares. Each own ~3% of Alphabet's stock, worth about $120 billion each at today's ~$4 trillion market cap. But because their shares have 10x voting power, the SEIU-UHW California billionaire tax would treat them as owning 30% of Alphabet (3% × 10 = 30%). That means each founder's taxable wealth would be $1.2 trillion. A 5% wealth tax on $1.2 trillion = $60 billion tax bill, each. That's 50% of their actual Alphabet holdings—wiped out by a "5%" tax. Section 50303(c)(3)(C) of the 2026 Billionaire Tax Act states: "For any interests that confer voting or other direct control rights, the percentage of the business entity owned by the taxpayer shall be presumed to be not less than the taxpayer's percentage of the overall voting or other direct control rights." This means if a founder holds shares representing only 3% of economic interest but 30% of voting control (through Class B supervoting shares), the tax would presume their ownership stake is at least 30% for valuation purposes, not 3%. The wealth tax is poorly defined and designed to drive tech innovation out of California.

Microsoft quietly kills official way to activate Windows 11/10 without internet. A Microsoft account is now required.

3DSen is an emulator that transforms NES classics into 3D dioramas. It supports over 100 games and offers a fresh way to enjoy these retro titles.

Yesterday evening someone leaked PlaySation 5 ROM keys online. Emulation nerds are going schizo because this could mean we have PlayStation 5 emulation technology, ability to run non-PlayStation 5 games, etc. tl;dr Sony executives on New Years eve

made an extension to replace wikipedia asking for donations with how much actual money they made

The @YandereDev slander is crazy. Last I checked YandereDev has done more dev work, content, and original assets than the ToonSouls dev.

Ubisoft has outsourced support to India for years upon years. Staff there has allegedly once again been giving and selling access in exchange for money (as per vx-underground) VX gets hate for reporting news, and ends up taking down the post.. and giving a soft apology...

Oh boy AI slop ads to be dynamically added to shows. I can't wait for the day AI gets good enough that the villain stops mid-speech, and tells me about the newest McDonald's deal. Truly living in the best timeline 🙏

The X location reveal feature has convinced me dead internet theory isn't true, though Indian internet theory is.

@LazoVelko Loved your C++ rant, it was well needed.

While the C++ developer is optimizing their code, the web developer is optimizing their life.

This C++ rant is 🔥🔥🔥 👌 youtu.be/7fGB-hjc2Gc?si…

This is pretty neat, it also goes to show your own first impression / gut feeling are incredibly reflective on a game's performance and sales in the majority of cases.

@VNyxan Video got hit with a bunch of different things. Took me a bit to go through it.

@SlopNewsNetwork What happend?

This guy is one of the smartest people I know. I’ve seen him kill it in everything from phreaking at DEFCON to systems architecture. I’m lucky to call him a friend.

Cursor 2.0 has released with a groundbreaking new feature. Multi AI agents now you can increase your bankruptcy velocity by 3x in one simple step 🙌.

Another day another AI browser, that's totally not Chrome (Chromium) with AI glued on top.
