@RepLuna Um, no.

The CCP has launched an all out war against American AI. The divide we are seeing in this country is largely driven by bots and paid actors violating FARA.

Tick-borne alpha-gal syndrome skyrocketed 10,000% as Bill Gates spent $7.6 MILLION creating genetically modified ticks designed to SPREAD in the wild. The FBI must investigate all possible bioterror-related activities behind this MAJOR surge in tick-induced meat allergies.

Yes. They become the opposite sex when their gonads literally change to produce the other sex's gametes. In clownfish a male stops producing sperm and starts producing eggs. In hermaphrodites like my backyard snails, individuals produce both eggs and sperm. In no species do we see one sex adopt the other sex's behavior or markings and thereby BECOME the opposite sex. It's just mimicry.

@_celia_bedelia_ But.. but.. it's The Science ™️ y'all love so much

Love to be reduced to my gametes

Yeah… I think we just got a glimpse into why Fort Knox hasn’t been audited. The gold is gone.

The AI numbers are starting to look very ugly. Even under "best case" assumptions, FT's own data shows Microsoft AI ROI at -9%, Google at -15%, Meta at -28%, Oracle at -35%. Only Amazon barely comes out positive. This is exactly why I keep comparing this to the dot-com era. Incredible technology does not automatically mean sustainable economics. The internet survived. Most internet companies didn't. Right now hyperscalers are spending trillions hoping future demand catches up to present capex. That's not certainty. That's a leveraged bet.

@MRKOWALCZYK7 @SamaHoole Yes.

If you want to apply that logic the meat is also bs because animals are feed with man made food, the enviroment around them is toxic, perhaps they're also jabbed with some toxic vacciness so basically everything that is modern is extremely toxic and if you don't see someone growing their own food you will never know what you're eating

Modern fruit is not ancestral food. Modern fruit is candy that we agreed to feel virtuous about. The wild banana was a stubby pod packed with hard black seeds and barely any flesh. The wild watermelon was pale, bitter, and small enough to hold in one hand. The wild apple was a sour, astringent crab apple that would make a toddler cry. We spent ten thousand years breeding out the bitterness and breeding in the sugar. Every fruit in your supermarket is the end point of a multi-millennium selective breeding programme with one goal: more sweet, less defence. You are not eating what your ancestors ate. You are eating the genetically-curated dessert version, available year-round, refrigerated, in quantities no human before 1900 could have dreamed of. Then we act surprised that the dessert behaves like dessert.

🇺🇸 A CIA officer got caught with $40 million in gold bars at home. David Rush had a Top-Secret clearance, a senior management position at the CIA, and apparently a very interesting storage situation. Federal agents raided his house last week and walked out with 300 gold bars worth over $40 million, $2 million in cash, and 35 luxury watches, mostly Rolexes. His explanation for the gold? "Work-related expenses." It gets wilder. The man spent nearly 20 years lying about his entire background, fake degrees, a Navy pilot career that never happened, none of it was real. He applied to the CIA three times before finally getting in, adding more fake credentials each time until something stuck. The CIA caught him through an internal investigation and handed it to the FBI. The real question nobody wants to answer is how someone with a completely fabricated resume held Top-Secret clearance for two decades without anyone noticing. Source: NBC NEWS

🚨 Flock cameras are commenting a lot more data than we think they are “They also monitor where you walk, what you do, what you say, what's on your phone when you walk by, and they spy on you all the time — These cameras utilize AI to track you and your family when you're out in public. They run, they run by a company, Palantir. This company claims that they just record movement of vehicles and they will reduce the crime rate 0. However, people much more educated than I on these cameras have proven this to be false” “Today I walked around and I noticed the one down by the bridge was pointed towards the courtyard and the field, not towards any roads. So why would it be pointed towards the river, not towards the streets, if it's just to monitor vehicles?” He’s right, I looked it up and they are collecting way more data than we think They create “vehicle fingerprints”of your car like color, make, model, stickers, dents and use AI for searches. Newer systems include video feeds and natural language queries. They can capture pedestrians, bystanders, and activities in view They are also using this data for “predictive policing.” You can be profiled before you do anything wrong Flock is not owned or operated by Palantir. Flock says they don’t share data with Palantir. However, Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund invested in Flock, and Flock’s data can integrate with platforms like Palantir’s for law enforcement analytics. Thiel co-founded Palantir, which does predictive policing and data fusion So I think there is very clearly more to this…. Flock cameras are the surveillance state being put up on America

The Big Beautiful Bill contains a provision banning state & local governments from regulating AI. It’s worse than you think. It would make it easier for corporations to get zoning variances, so massive AI data centers could be built in close proximity to residential areas.

@SamaHoole It's truly incredible. And concerning.

@dspins33 It is mildly suspicious when the same multinational brand somehow manages cleaner formulations the moment it crosses a regulatory border.

The same Kellogg's box, sold in London and in Chicago, contains different ingredients. The London version is missing several chemicals the United States considers food. Things the US permits in its food supply that the UK does not. Chlorine-washed chicken. Banned in the UK and EU on the basis that chlorine washing exists primarily to mask hygiene failures earlier in the production line. Hormone-treated beef. Six growth hormones routinely given to American feedlot cattle. All six banned in UK and EU beef. Ractopamine in pork. A beta-agonist used to promote muscle growth in finishing pigs. Banned in roughly 160 countries including the UK, EU, China, and Russia. Standard in American production. Brominated vegetable oil. A flame retardant used as a stabiliser in some American soft drinks until the FDA finally banned it in 2024. Banned in the UK and EU decades earlier. Potassium bromate in commercial bread. A flour improver. Banned in the UK, EU, Canada, Brazil, and Argentina. Standard in American baking. Azodicarbonamide in bread. The yellow chemical that gives commercial American loaves their standardised crumb. Banned in the UK, EU, and Australia. Atrazine on corn. Banned in the EU in 2004. The second most-applied herbicide in the US. Several neonicotinoid insecticides. Restricted across the UK and EU since 2018. Permitted in the US. Petroleum-derived food dyes. Several are restricted, require warning labels, or are banned in the UK. The same dyes are standard in American confectionery and breakfast cereal. Recombinant bovine growth hormone in dairy. Banned in the UK and EU since the 1990s. Permitted in US milk. The British food supply isn't perfect. The British food supply is, on every single one of these specific lines, ahead of the American one. The argument for buying British isn't patriotism. It's a question of which regulator you trust with what enters your bloodstream. The records are public. The records do not lie. The American supply chain has not earned the benefit of the doubt. Treat it accordingly.

@CopperScorpion @AreOhEssEyeEe The Andes virus is the only strain of hantavirus than can spread person to person. This is the strain the people on the ship have.

@dspins33 @AreOhEssEyeEe Since when is hantavirus spread person-to-person? I know mice can spread it, but people?

Anyone know where Hantavirus went?

@joannehuspek @SamaHoole I haven't tried their chocolates but their gummy candies taste way better. So do their chips and even soda. I think they use real sugar not HFCS in the soda. And natural coloring. Still not good for you but a little better I guess lol 🤷🏻‍♀️

@dspins33 @SamaHoole Canadian chocolate is/was far superior. We lived in Detroit and would take monthly trips to stock up. The KitKats! Mmm. And they were best refrigerated, of they’d melt.

BREAKING: YOUR PHONE IS SENDING DATA TO GOOGLE EVERY 4.5 MINUTES. SCREEN OFF. PHONE UNTOUCHED. TRINITY COLLEGE DUBLIN CONFIRMED IT IN A PEER REVIEWED STUDY. HERE ARE 10 SETTINGS TO CUT IT OFF:

@tbzill @alex_prompter Deleted previous comment, I realized what you were referring to. I agree that not everything would be gone, it would be hard copies in stores, ppls homes, and libraries. Those will still exist. But getting off internet for good would be like going back to the 90s - physical info

@dspins33 @alex_prompter Analogy doesn't work. The whole "burn down the library" thing doesn't track.

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it. Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying. Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence." Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter." Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter. They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created. One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility." Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies. That's the metered intelligence business model. And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

Thinking of AI as the theft of all human creativity, originality, art, writing, research and innovative breakthroughs helps you understand AI better from the tech oligarchs perspective. They have no fundamental respect for how remarkable human beings really are. So many of the tech oligarchs are noticeably remedial verbally but smart in non verbal areas. They can’t really discern the difference between human talent and AI slop because they think being smart is the same as being talented.
