Could a somewhat Jupiter brain be fashioned from some mass botnet of AI computers? Perhaps a near worldwide botnet cyber attack???

If you hate Microsoft, seed this I2P torrent with 43 GB of compressed source code they've leaked over the years. It feels so good having it on my disk and sharing it anonymously!

Oh absolutely. The explorer.exe windows manager was a huge deal for open source coding. Even if the leaks are XP years old they are still massively influential for that reason alone. Windows has, more or less, been a black box since, well, forever. It's a big deal, imo.

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.
https://www.marketwatch.com/story/employers-are-using-your-personal-data-to-figure-out-the-lowest-salary-youll-accept-c2b968fb

>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.

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.

Depends on the use case. I use them for hours a day.

Claude for not making shit up as much. Claude for code. Claude has major issues with catastrophizing, assuming worst case scenarios, and stopping converstaions arbitrarily for 'safety'. It isn't as glazing and agreeable as Gemini though.

Gemini for problem solving. But it also glazes and agrees too much over time.

Hello people. I'm looking for an instant messenger which satisfies most of those needs:

Anonymous, private & secure [decentralised, encrypted & safe] (Hard necessary)

Audio & video calls [configure volume, deafen, mute, select camera/screen/window & support for group chats] (If there is an app which satisfies most other needs but does not have audio/video, I might do fine just using Jitsi instead, so it's mid-necessary.)

Clean, fast, professional, responsive & smooth design (Can also go with terminal)

Cross-platform [android, linux & windows] (Hard necessary)

File transfer [no limits] (Hard necessary)

Free & open source (Hard necessary)

Group chats [customisation & moderation] (Hard necessary)

I'm back. Trying SimpleX made clear that the battery drain I was seeing was an Android issue, not a Signal issue.

At some point my dumbass disabled microG cloud messaging registration, so apps weren't using it. That's the fix for that and, as such, I'm staying on Signal.

I guess I still recommend SimpleX as well. I did like it.

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?

btw, flip/feature phones aren't automatically safer or more "privacy" (schizo) friendly. their main purpose nowadays is to break the habit of constantly checking your phone

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.
