clueless··on Review: Project Xanadu – The Internet That Might Have Been
This all seems to be the precursor to the recently viral Matthew McConaughey video saying he wants a private LLM, and to think, first of all, we still don't have a great/mainstream tool/product for this, and second of all, it's more than 80 years in the making, is mind boggling...

clueless··on Navy SEALs reportedly killed North Korean fishermen to hide a failed mission
>They found no guns or uniforms. Evidence suggested that the crew, which people briefed on the mission said numbered two or three people, had been civilians diving for shellfish. All were dead, including the man in the water. Officials familiar with the mission said the SEALs pulled the bodies into the water to hide them from the North Korean authorities. One added that the SEALs punctured the boat crew’s lungs with knives to make sure their bodies would sink.

Nothing to see here but a bunch of psychopaths killing innocent people as they screw up their own mission
