I don’t know the guys behind it, just repeating what others have heard. I’d have included a source if I had one sorry.

Small point, but I heard nitter is run by chuds, xcancel is better.
E: I always get clowdstrike and cloudflare confused, which were the ones who protected the nazis again and which ones were the ones who took down the internet for a day? ;) (Ha, the last page even leaves out this incident)
But compared to the anti piracy fines for sharing music from decades ago it is pretty low.
Saw people suggest it was because the judge doesnt want to kill the goose that is laying pyrite eggs.
Iirc he was also on the forbes 30 under 30 list. Making that list more and more a list of people to avoid.
e: https://www.forbes.com/profile/edward-saatchi/ there he is, with the 30 icon. Strangely empty profile.
96% accuracy. So… unusable. That is an extremely high rate of failure.
Imagine how often it triggers on just people talking about hearts of iron 4 alone.
E: read more about it:
we achieved a 94.8% detection rate for nuclear weapons queries and zero false positives
‘zero false positives’ Sure bud.
Only noticed it when I realized I had not closed the tab, but there are several comment under that article telling the author to kill himself. Over a dumb art project.
The more you read the worse it gets. And sadly, no all these manosphere dweebs write like this.
(A lot of them also credit Heartiste, which is why his popularity, enough for Scott to publish the anti-heartiste faq, which he didnt write. Was such a bad sign. (Also the guy is a neo-nazi racist, openly hated black and jewish people)).
Edit: And from Hugos blog: (source: https://profhugodegaris.wordpress.com/masctemp/)
“With a video you get not only the content, but can also see the emotion behind the content. Initially I only put up a video link to YouTube, but since the CEO of YouTube is a Jewish feminazi who censors and even terminates whole masculist and MGTOW video channels”
Look anti-Semitism. The fucker.
Ah yes, im a classical liberal of the style of Locke how he thought about slavery, that kind of classical stuff.
I didnt know anything about him, not even who he was, but DuckDuckGo search suggestions suggested I search for him and mgtow, so the search engine knew. First link shows he isn’t mgtow, he is a masculinist. https://profhugodegaris.wordpress.com/masculisting-the-mgtows/
His wikipage on his beliefs is wild. Legit beliefs skynet or eclipse phases TITANs will attack.
Quote from his site a free book he provides: “MASCULISM : Men’s Rebellion Against Being Manslaves to Women, An e-Textbook of 370+ Masculist Flyers for Men’s Studies Courses””
Manslaves rise up you have nothing to lose but your money in the divorce as half your stuff was hers anyway.
Yeah Im not totally sure it was that song, but it was a neonazi/nazi song, and he was ejected very fast by the bartenders.
Populist groups pull that shit a lot. Wilders also keeps claiming we should all do what he wants because people voted for him (a scary and depressingly large group, but not a total majority). It is a way of trying to get more democratic power behind you than you should really have looking at the democratic support you have alone at least in the case of politics. It also is often just delusional.
I recall a neo-nazi guy being kicked from a bar once while he loudly (and alone, the whole place fell silent, was a massive vibe shift) started to sing what I think was the horst wessel song (I was not familiar with the song at the time, so this is my guess), and while he was being kicked out he shouted that everybody else agreed with him and was just afraid to say it. Whole group of metalheads/etc like that suddenly silent and a vibe of ‘something shit is going down’. Was a weird moment.
Yes, I posted it here so we can all pretend to be shocked a bit.
Not totally in our wheelhouse, but seems like the Abundance movements has a bit of a right wing speaker problem: https://bsky.app/profile/therealbrent.bsky.social/post/3lxzn3lxqo22b
that “90%” of the audience was “on [Tucker’s] side” but had been unwilling to admit it.
Why are transphobes always this full of shit. Polls always disagree with this, and it cant be ‘people are afraid to speak out out of fear’, as there seem to be very little consequences to just being a lowkey transphobe. Hell even raging transphobes who stalk people, assault kids, and call for violence in what can only be called a life destroying obsession with trans people get defended by the people in power. There is very little reason for people to lie on polls over this.
Also dislike the focus on ‘trans women’ as these whole shitty arguments forget trans men exist. (This seems to be a general problem sadly, trans men, same as intersex people, or detransitioners tend to be only brought up like gotcha arguments, and not much to discuss the different problems they also face. Obv, I’m also doing that here, so I’m not immune)
Lol, like Musk could do anything like this privately, and not post about it on twitter.
E: unrelated to that, but Altman looks like one of the antagonists from the movie Aliens: https://gizmodo.com/app/uploads/2024/04/c1178b6b21888026dbd2ae9ba7e97bc8.jpg
Still from the movie Aliens, a guy looking a bit like Sam Altman, rougly same facial shape and hair, is talking while the badass military woman from the marine team is looking at him in a somewhat dismissive way. The colors are muted and it is slightly shadowy, giving it a dark feeling.
Now I’m honestly surprised I can’t find Gerez getting into NFTs.
haha, yes makes you wonder. That kind of scam prob is safer to do under a fake name, so wouldn’t be surprised if it was revealed she did.
Thanks for the info, will link this comment on reddit as well. Edited both posts, and yeah I just knew of both book/game projects and was going via that, used the humble link first that is why WCK came out on top and not UNRWA.
Gonna repost a bit from comment I left on reddit:
Read swlabrs reply first btw.
Anyway, something useful perhaps, the World Central Kitchen seems to help out with the famine so donating to them might be useful, see comment below. Donate to the UNRWA organisation instead. Not comfortable donating on a link provided by a random user (smart!), or want something to show for your donation, the current Humble book bundle is donating to the WCK (do not forget to adjust the sliders) and you get a nice collection of Martha Wells books (The Murderbot saga is great). Or buy the play for peace bundle which is donating to the UNRWA USA, and get a shitton of games and other stuff. (All links are affiliate free from my end, I know there is a system setup for Humble stuff, but I don’t use that).
E: buying the last one is also a fun way to boost yourself into Spiders Georg levels of video game ownership. So you could do it for that joke alone. Just to claim you own ~300 videogames.
While this is close to ‘look at what you made me do territory’. We would sneer a lot less at him if he didn’t blame us for everything. ‘people who sneer made covid worse’ (not the direct quote) for example was just silly, and if you look at the reaction of sneerclub at the time also not in the realm of reality. (But yes he will just say he said sneer by which he didn’t mean sneerclub but people like us in general. Which is obv not a thing I fully agree with, but good motte/bailey).
It also is interesting, as Scott compared to the others we sneer at never really seems to break containment so to speak. I have seen people talk about Aella on bsky for example, Scott Alexander, Eliezer, lesswrong, EA, etc all come up. But Scott almost never does. (Yes, the ‘untitled’ affair was public, but that was a decade ago, and 6 months before r/sneerclub was created (and long before I joined) and also the whole broaden influence thing as you mentioned). And after all why should he, he is just a random professor, the only reason he is relevant for the broader picture is that he agrees with the AI doom stuff, and he gives the LW people some level of prestige (the only times I have brought him up is because he confirmed that Yarvin spends time personally emailing prestigious people like him but that is about Moldy). He is prob the only one whos sneering is just contained to sneerclub/awful.systems (which is why he should stop reading sc, he prob should also ignore more blog comments and emails (block Yarvin’s email Scott, do it!)).
More vibe coding wins in the wild. Soon we will be out of a job here.
