Hello, faggots, thanks to our unwavering dedication to the community I am proud to announce we are rolling out our own, official, leftychan.net i2p address.
You can locate the eepsite @ http://leftychmxz3wczbd4add4atspbqevzrtwf2sjobm3waqosy2dbua.b32.i2p, or, http://leftychan.i2p/.
If you have any trouble, as stated on the news announcement, try manually adding the address and domain to your address book.

-Yours Truly.

What are you using default i2p?
You should be able to put the address in and then it should redirect you to a jump service and then you should have the address in your address book.

Learn how to use I2P. The For network is a honeypot as there are ways ISPs can break your anonymity and it's just over a very brittle security model that's easy to accidentally break

Cybersecurity can mean a lot of different things.
I'm guessing you mean either "red team" or "black hat" with "darker stuff", look up those terms and then specify which one you want.

Stay away from I2P regardless.

What's the best LLM chatbot?

I was messing around with free chatbots, got bored of their copypasted and formulaic responses and then I find out that there are premium versions of them? And then I find out there are FLOSS Chinese LLMs? And apparently Deepseek V4 got released which is way more precise while being way less resource-hungry? I'm so confused.

My questions are:
>What is the best LLM chatbot?
>What is the best FLOSS LLM chatbot?
>How do both of them compare?

In my experience, Claude seems to be the best and GPT is hot garbage but I've only tried their free versions so I don't know how their paid versions stack up.

You know, it's kinda ironic how the only thing preventing Plankton from getting the secret formula is the non-disclosure agreement. I bet SpongeBob would've just told him otherwise. Also, Krabs basically appropriated the formula when both of them worked together on it. Capitalism truly eats itself.

I severely lack meaning in my life and I have the urge to to participate in schizo computing. What I mean by that is, I have the urge to lock myself in my room at night, hunch over my keyboard and:

use Tails OS, Tor, Whonix, Qubes, OpenBSD, virtual machines, Linux, alternative internet forums, use flip phones, use physical media instead of digital content where possible, air gap computers, use internet archives, improve my general knowledge on mass surveillance and other cucked things.

I'm not even that good at computers but I just feel the need to schizomaxx and become redpilled on susciety. Any things you recommend I should learn or delve into, given the things I'm interested in?

The most important skill is organizing information - all of the websites, articles, services, threads, etc.
Work with text files.

You can already use Tor Browser without a special OS if you keep it on "Safest".
I would not recommend I2P at this point.

Not just glowies, employers are too so they can figure out if you're struggling and pay you less.
Y'all need to start figuring out how to not just protect your privacy, but actively poison the information there is online about you.

>According to Nina DiSalvo, policy director at labor advocacy group Towards Justice, some systems use signals associated with financial vulnerability — including data on whether a prospective employee has taken out a payday loan or has a high credit-card balance — to infer the lowest pay a candidate might accept. Companies can also scrape candidates' public personal social-media pages, she said…

>A first-of-its-kind audit of 500 labor-management artificial-intelligence companies by Veena Dubal, a law professor at University of California, Irvine, and Wilneida Negrón, a tech strategist, found that employers in the healthcare, customer service, logistics and retail industries are customers of vendors whose tools are designed to enable this practice. Published by the Washington Center for Equitable Growth, a progressive economic think tank, the August 2025 report… does not claim that all employers using these systems engage in algorithmic wage surveillance. Instead, it warns that the growing use of algorithmic tools to analyze workers' personal data can enable pay practices that prioritize cost-cutting over transparency or fairness…

>Surveillance wages don't stop at the hiring stage — they follow workers onto the job, too. The vendors that provide such services also offer tools that are built to set bonus or incentive compensation, according to the report. These tools track their productivity, customer interactions and real-time behavior — including, in some cases, audio and video surveillance on the job. Nearly 70% of companies with more than 500 employees were already using employee-monitoring systems in 2022, such as software that monitors computer activity, according to a survey from the International Data Corporation.

I believe both sides can be quite extreme so here's my balanced take:
>supplementary use of AI (chatbots, TTS, NPCs, enemy AI, RPGs, level generation, self-driving cars, AI assistants and code generation) are pretty based actually as long as they produce correct outputs and don't get you into any legal trouble
>non-commercial use of AI is also fine and can create something unique and interesting (memes, AI covers, AI dubbing)
>AI art is mostly slop except for some rare exceptions so people should at least be able to easily filter it and it should be marked appropriately
>commercial use of AI other than what was already mentioned is NOT cool and leads to more layoffs, more enshittification, more plagiarism and more mass surveillance
>proprietary AI software is ALSO not cool since it can be spyware that sends your data to the NSA

While I still find furfags cringe, at least they can actually draw. This AI slop is 10 times worse, I'd rather have furry art than whatever this gooner slop is. Some 3D animations are also low-quality however (Source Filmmaker and its consequences were a disaster for the human race).

>they no longer have an edge over AI
That's just not true. The recent DLSS 5 disaster proves this. This technology is simply not the same as AGI: it does not understand anatomy and lighting, it cannot create something original, it constantly forgets small details, it uses literally random pictures from the Internet as a training data (including AI-generated ones) which leads to output quality degradation and it often gives inconsistent results because it's just a random image generator that doesn't understand what an art style is.
>Most people should just accept that humans aren't as special as we think.
I'm not saying that humans will always be special but for now AI is like a monkey stroking a brush againt the canvas. It's not intelligent enough to have the same creativity and vision as humans do. Believe me, I want AGI to be real too, it feels lonely for the human species to be at the top of evolutionary development. But until AGI is made I do not think AI will make as good of an art as meatbags do. Yeah, some stuff created with the use of AI like Neuro-sama, Fortnite's Darth Vader, Sora 2 memes or Angel Engine are entertaining but image generation specifically just does not cut it.

It's funny how the alt-right is associated with AI slop because the Nazi aesthetic is made entirely out of plagiarized symbols
>the swastika is taken from Buddhism
>the SS symbols are taken from paganism
>the Aryan race is taken from Indians and Iranians
>the ideology's name is taken from socialism
>the Roman salute is taken from Romans
>the architecture and art are taken from Romans as well
Like, there's literally nothing original that the Nazis did. In fact, they burnt entire libraries of """Jewish""" literature. I think that's very ironic in hindsight.

Also, has anyone noticed how diffusion models fuck up the Brazilian flag? I'm so sorry, Brazilian bros.

Oh, I forgot to mention two other major drawbacks: increased hardware prizes and environmental impact. The corpos, due to the AI craze, started buying GPUs and RAM en masse while gamers and Earth-chan got fucked in the ass. But instead of the corpos reducing their use of AI they're trying to push it on people as a solution to a problem they created. And that solution makes games look like shit.

Man. Remember when high-budget games looked actually photorealistic and didn't require a data center to run? Me neither.
