I was still wondering. Do you know if 13Radar or MarketCapWatch have any insights or analyses specifically regarding the AI bubble? I'm interested in understanding their take on the interconnections between AI firms and whether they provide any data that could shed light on whether we are indeed witnessing a healthy market or a speculative bubble.

The framed problem (Christians under attack in Africa) isn't entirely accurate, so it's not that useful

Although the country is officially secular, Nigeria is closely split between Muslims (53%) and Christians (45%). Despite violence against Christians having garnered international attention, analysts say the causes are more complex, with many conflicts stemming from ethnic rivalries as well as land and water disputes, among other reasons.

Kidnappings of priests and pastors have surged, as criminals see them as high-value targets whose communities can raise ransom quickly, prompting some analysts to view their actions as driven more by criminal profit than religious discrimination.

They said that you can change it if you want, but did they say they will provide Windows drivers for their semi-custom Ryzen chip?

Okay, that makes sense. Do you know if 13Radar or MarketCapWatch have any insights or analyses specifically regarding the AI bubble? I'm interested in understanding their take on the interconnections between AI firms and whether they provide any data that could shed light on whether we are indeed witnessing a healthy market or a speculative bubble.

Interesting post, but all your posts (and seemingly comments) are posts from the same site (13radar & marketcapwatch). Why is that?

Good that you added that security disclaimer

This is about Mensa UK's site, not MCO

They apparently didn't even hash the stored passwords. It's insane for any website, even a hobby project to store passwords in plain text.

Mr Hopkinson, who until recently was the board’s technology officer, said he had battled to convince Mensa’s leadership team to tackle data security issues surrounding member passwords since 2018.

His biggest concern was that member passwords were not “hashed” or scrambled, making them potentially identifiable to hackers.

He told the Financial Times that Mensa holds a lot of sensitive information — including the IQ scores of members and failed applicants; instant messaging conversations on its website; bank details from the online shop; as well as passwords, email details and home addresses.

But then it wouldn't be able to do anything unless they properly configured the apps permissions :(

I've been playing on this server for several years and have posted about it on here before. They have no claims system but do have a strong anti-griefing policy that allows builds from more than a decade ago to remain untouched (map). You can go exploring, and you will find builds from 2010 and new builds from a couple of months ago. It's pretty cool seeing how building styles developed from back in Minecraft Alpha to now.

The “free speech” chat policy isn't entirely unrestricted. The servers are hosted at Hetzner in Germany and are therefore bound to their laws. This means things such as swastikas are not allowed (neither as builds nor in chat). There have been cases where people use the n- or f-word, but it's not common, and will not be appreciated by most players.

The owner (SlowRiot) is an interesting character. He runs a game studio and is a former director of Mensa UK with whom he had a legal fight a couple years back. He is not that active but checks on the server every so often. (SlowRiot's MCO wiki page)

The server has been having several technical issues for a while. It is still stuck on version 1.12.2. It has various custom Sponge plugins which are still being ported over. Furthermore, it also has issues with lag, comparable to a heavily modded minecraft server.

EDIT: This is the mail in question

And the followup mails

I recommend going with the PrismLauncher fork, it allows you to download everything right inside the launcher.

Yes, that's explained at the start of the video.

Do it

late-age bed wetting

That seems like such a weird indicator. I wonder how that's connected.

This reminds me of the time the Catholic Church declared capybaras fish

Going outside more often won't fix your depression, but staying inside will make it worse. I know "go exercise" is a cliche, but it is one for a reason. Laying in bed or sitting behind a desk all day is terrible for your mental health. Where I live there were lockdowns during COVID and they proved disastrous for the public's mental health (not denying they were the right choice overall though).

I'm not in America, so I can't ascertain the risk you're exposed to when going outside right now. However, while I disagree that the current political atmosphere is not a reason for concern, I do think your family might be right that avoiding going outside all the time is unnecessary.

So, try going outside more often. A short walk at least once a day is a good start. Good luck.

Also in case you aren't familiar, I recommend watching "7 Ways to Maximize Misery".

Chest starts vibrating.

Ah shit it's 7 AM already

I wanted to post the thing in the body but didn't know where. I wasn't sure if it was suitable to include it so I added it with a spoiler and CW.

I expected more public outrage and media attention after the boats would inevitably be intercepted. My expectations were low, but apparently still far too high.
