But can we do a zero click attack? Can we make Copilot Chat give us the user’s private data if they even look at the pull request page? Yes, we can!

In a YouTube commenter’s own words:

“As part of our ‘treat adult users like adults’ principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.”

There’s this magical thing called “commissioning a porn artist” Sammy Boy. I recommend trying it out for once - it gets you an objectively better result than throwing money into a planet-destroying slop machine, and its much cheaper too. You’ve done nothing but attack the human soul for the past three fucking years, you might as well give an infinitesimal amount of your undeserved billions to one of the millions of artists whose livelihoods you’ve been murdering.

(Seriously, I feel fucking insulted by this.)

Reddit was still doing NFTs?

I would like to congratulate the SV-brained OP for prompting sneers from his fellow orange site members, whether that be a fellow hackernews calling it “everything wrong with the current flavor of Ai in a single post/product”, or someone openly tearing this shit apart:

You turned talking to Santa into a subscription service.

You are part of the problem. You are part of the thing everyone hates about technology in 2025.

This is a bad product.

Examples of such goods are public roads or public libraries or services or other goods of a communal nature.

This is literally railing against the concept of altruism, kill this license with hammers (and sickles)

To provide some good news for this week, the Fediverse is reporting a spike in users (thanks to David Gerard for finding this):

Whilst accurate fedi stats are pretty difficult to get, I’m inclined to believe the influx is genuine - after the CEO Meltdown on Bluesky, its clear people are jumping ship.

Guy’s also publicly denying the flagship products are fash in the replies (Exhibit A, Exhibit B):

AI slop has been discovered in an anatomy textbook (the news originally broke on TikTok, but I discovered this through Bluesky):

And in related news, worldwide ecosystems are already getting perma-fucked by billionaires’ repeated and relentless wrecking of our planet for personal gain.

I mention billionaires specifically because the average Joe, the 99% of humanity being told to cut down their carbon footprint and delete emails to save water, is completely fucking blameless in this.

They didn’t choose to have car-centric architecture forced on them for the past goddamn century, they didn’t choose to have planet-wrecking crypto farms/NFTs forced on them a few years ago, and they sure as hell didn’t choose to have planet-killing AI slop extruders forced on them, either.

(Anyways, unrelated hot take of the day: taking responsibility for something you’re not responsible for is a moral failing, and needs to be treated as such)

I fell off Spotify years ago and never subbed, nice to see I made the right call.

[THIS IS WHAT SCIENTOLOGISTS TECHBROS ACTUALLY BELIEVE]

Gemini is special — Google’s put it everywhere. For instance, in any company that uses Google Apps. Markopoulos built test attacks against Google Calendar invites. He could hit the titles, the meeting organizer’s name, and the meeting descriptions.

Ah, good, nice to know Google’s negligence is providing some sort of setup for the next ILOVEYOU-level disaster /s

AI-faked videos of journalist arrests have started cropping up online, to the surprise of nobody except those creating AI video extruders.

Reddit is down the hall and to the left

The computer was a mistake

At this point, I’m gonna stop extending benefit of the doubt - Framework’s choice to actively advance fascist interests, and double down when called out, is proof enough for me that they’re fascists themselves.

“[I]ncreasing the adoption of open source software” is such a bullshit argument here anyway, holy shit lol.

Not to mention, actively welcoming Nazis into the open source bar is gonna achieve the exact goddamn opposite of increasing adoption, by driving away marginalised users, introducing unnecessary security risks, actively rotting communities from the inside, and God-only-knows-what-else.

Quick update: Nirav is posting through it on Twitter

Found a nice and lengthy sneer of Bluesky’s dogshit moderation in the wild, focusing on how its repeatedly fucked over marginalised users.

I am so sorry to tell you this, but its the exact same Framework developing modular and repairable laptops.
