@Viss blimey that brings back memories of my youth.
anyone else remember ICL?
@Viss "in which case may I introduce our new Incident Response offering - you won't need it right away but you should probably print off the details for when you no longer have functioning systems of your own"

Nobody has a "right" to an ethnostate. That's not how that works.
@AnarchoNinaWrites how about we put an upper limit on the size of an ethnostate, say 4 acres max. ideally on an island so the ethnostate can fully isolate itself from the rest of the world's population successfully?

And now, one of many possible payoffs from this walkthrough of fundamentals in mentation and communication:
YOU CANNOT ASSUME AN LLM IS GENERALLY INTELLIGENT MERELY BECAUSE IT SPEAKS WELL.
You also can't assume a *human* is unusually intelligent simply because they speak unusually well--you're evaluating their language facility, NOT their general intelligence.
Thank you for coming to my frustrated TedXYZ talk, I'll be here all eternity.

If you actively run "OpenClaw" or similar services on your real data, connected to the Internet you should probably not be listened to when it comes to topics of the digital, technology or security. You disqualified yourself by being a dumbass.

Something very cool - this office block in Newcastle is due to be demolished, so a bunch of artists got access and used the whole thing as a canvas. Six floors of art installations, with DJs scattered around.
It was Berlin as f**k. Seeing offices twisted like this was a weird mental flip.
