  • I correct

    I feel too much violence in my words recently. I do not like that, my style is not like that as well.

    There are various levels of subjective and objective violence phenomenon appearance and one of the fundamental ones – contextual, word and sense violence.

    Yes I do not like many things and we ought we speak them, since how to improve then?But starting from today I am going to write in more accurate and sophisticated way. I still keep fighting, but not in rude and violet style, it is not efficient.

    For me words like Fuck You and Stupid Mutherfucker often sounds way too raw. In my ideal, I strive to keep more neutral stance usually.

    So, as I said, I am gonna take slightly different approach about my words from today.

  • This universe is not a positive one, its symmetry is not what you expect it to be

    This universe is not a positive one. Worse, what you expected, most likely will happen, not good. Especially all humans. Humans are a savage, temporary evolution breed. We were brought here to endure and suffer, to give painful birth to next-level humans—super humans. All current nations and races are the same. If you live closer, you’ll see a general trend is the same. Though I still love people. Beautiful, bright creatures. But our destiny is hard. What helps is some geniuses and luck—these are the only ones which moving all that mass of shit forward.

  • I’m totally against of age verification because it is a lie and a trojan horse

    US national level OS-level age verification bill proposed

    A comment I could not agree more with:

    hypeatei 3 hours ago | parent | next [–]
    I’m not sure why Meta’s lobbying is harped on so much when all of Big Tech benefits from this; Zuckerberg is just the fall guy. Tech companies love the idea of identity / age verification so they can target ads more effectively. My general feeling is also that privacy is a thorn in their side when it comes to integrating more deeply into people’s lives.There are also state actors at play here who would love if computing without ID became a very niche thing to do. Obviously their top line would be “fighting terrorism” and “saving the children” but in reality we’ve seen how these organizations (ICE, NSA, etc.) abuse their power and spy on people without warrants.tl;dr: there is much more at play here than Facebooks interests alone

  • I like AI. But in somebody else’s cloud? No, thanks.

    I like AI. But in somebody else’s cloud? But cloud USA bullshit? No, thanks. All those chats you put there will be used against you someday.

    I use AI neutrally and as little as possible. If you use it too much, you become a dumb, lazy idiot. I use it for some coding assistance, some research, grammar and typo correction. Nothing more. It is bad for real creativity. I honestly tried

    A good alternative is local models. If your hardware is super slow and old, you can rent a GPU to offload the work and rent computing power. llama.cpp, Linux, CLI, Hugging Face, all that. I use it. There is some optimized local models for open source android too (Grapheneos, LineageOS)

    There are plenty of models that are no worse than ChatGPT. Fuck OpenAI and Anthropic, after all, that’s just another USA’s big tech disaster. They spy and collect and sell your personal data, that is just disgusting. I do not trust them. Plus all the overhype, remember they lied about agi to become real in 2025, just to collect more dollars from investors? They just want to take your money and data
    and take advantage after all.
    There is no real nobility or perspective there, if you still have not abandoned them, that’s bad for you.

  • Turbo enshittification

    Google and Reddit officially turned into complete trash today, like so many other products. Completely removed them from my life already. Turbo enshittification is everywhere now. Most of those American corporations we used to think were fun and good in the 2000s have turned into absolute garbage.

    If you listen to the masses and chase profit instead of value, you rot fast. The best things are built with the best people and the real values in mind, not for the default crowd, people with no taste, no opinion, no standards, or just for more money. It does not work like that.

    But I do not care much. That is their problem, not mine. I will throw it aside and move on with better alternatives. Keep moving, keep searching for the new. Bad times for the internet today, but I feel no its death yet! Just fucking boycott all that spam and corporate bullshit, there are still nice places around.

    Also, venture capital is a super bad thing. Keep your business private and free of that disaster, do not chase illusionary profits, usually what you will get is just slow decay and pollution, after all.

  • Thought experiment about consumerism

    Things, things… just pieces of junk, really. Sometimes I think: what if everyone lived simply, in caves with bare walls, and even without clothes? Then what meaning would life have for people? Today it often feels like consumerism is everything — work just so you can buy more things, basically.

    But an experiment in emptiness like that shows something: things are vanity, trivia, a distraction. Yes, things are symbols and, in a way, form our material foundation, but I’m referring to the meaning behind them.

    So how would a person live in that world? They would try to understand the earth, themselves, and the universe. They would strive for movement, struggle, and travel. That already sounds more solid, doesn’t it? Don’t you live just to buy another product, to consume another thing? You’ve got to distinguish between contemplating and consuming there.

  • Why the System Failed

    What happened? How could USA fall so low with shit they’ve got as “current administration & president” now?

    I’ll answer you simply. It’s because of concentrated capitalism: too much money in the hands of a few greedy fools, plus social media manipulation. Normal people got tired of all the oligarchy-driven bullshit and the disadvantages that come with it. Social media was already stupid, and then it pumped the masses full of even more shit. That’s basically the only thing big social media actually does: rot the brain.

    That dirt and absurdity happened because of too much capitalism and too much greed for money in the system. For example, why did social media become so bad? To make money. Why do all those tech billionaires bend the knee to that asshole? Never forgive that, by the way. Apple, etc. — the way they hand him gifts like gold… it’s because of money.

    Money, money, money. USA shit all over itself. Its reputation is damaged forever.

    Plus, size matters. The USA is obviously an overgrown monster with too much of everything, and that creates imbalance. Smaller states live better. I predict the states will divorce and each go its own way someday. California will probably be the first. But I can’t guarantee that — that’s just how I feel.

    Lost its sense, lost the real compass of why we’re all here and what we really need. Extreme capitalism in the USA and the kind of extreme socialism seen, for example, in Argentina both suck. There’s no final solution. You just have to keep balancing between drive and sustainability. Society is a super complex thing, and both forces should be maintained appropriately: let smart people create and get rich, but support ordinary and vulnerable people for real, and never let the super ultra-rich appear. There should be a middle class as the base, and some rich people too, but you should never truly obey the rich because, after all, it’s all luck. And even if you are smart enough to outperform normal folks, you still need them.

  • There is a moment when growing up feels complete

    There is a moment when growing up feels complete. You say to yourself: that is it, now I understand how life works. I know what fits me, how to behave, even how to dress. Knowledge becomes a kind of line, and crossing it gives a strange calm. As if confusion is behind you.

    But every point of knowledge is also a stopping place. We think we have found the answer, when maybe we have only found a form that lets us rest for a while. What we call understanding may be nothing more than a temporary shelter from uncertainty.

  • About real leaders

    A leader is not the one who is wealthier or has more connections. A true leader is someone who fights first, takes the hardest burdens on himself, and accepts more risk. But willpower alone is not enough. A true leader is always smart, understands ordinary people, and helps them because he knows he is just one part of society after all. So true leadership is not something that comes from luck. It is simply a stronger human being who truly helps others. Anything else is bullshit swallowed by lazy masses.

    Contrary examples of fake leaders are d trump, putin, hitler, other similar authoritarian liers. Never obey assholes like that. They are idiots brought to power by luck, like a virus in life, maybe just to keep us awake after all. Yes they lead a group of idiots like them, but not the humanity. Fuck them really, and anyone like them. If your place has a leader like that, boycott, protest, or just ignore them and leave. Don’t feed that disaster! And stop spreading any neutral/positive attention about them, it only makes things worse. If it’s bullshit, it’s bullshit, why ever care. Give it time. Only harsh occasional critics, enough for them. I don’t read news and never talk about their nonsense in usual life. Trump said this trump said that… total crap. What the fuck.

  • Believe me.

    Something essential in life is learning how to love struggle—problems, conflict, fights. Otherwise, they will overwhelm you. I learned that early, and in my own way, I came to value them.

    Life has given me a lot of harsh things, honestly, ever since childhood. I’m a full orphan, raised in aggressive Russian ghettos, but I overcame everything myself and left Russia many years ago, around 2019 or so, before the war. I’ve kept moving around since then. I’m a cosmopolitan, not a national person. I’m an Earth guy. I belong to this planet, not to a nation, believe me.

    My personal trick is simple: I remind myself that struggle is natural to us. We are built to fight, to endure, to overcome through difficulty. That idealized, perfect life—I tried it. You eat well, buy everything you want, remove all friction. It becomes unbelievably boring. I walked away from that because I wanted to stay fit, stay sharp, keep a critical mind, and continue fighting through struggle.

    After a while, I got used to it. Now I just keep moving forward. I don’t ask childish questions like, ‘When will I be rich?’ or ‘When will I be happy?’

    Never underestimate the role of luck in life. When I meet people, I never want to know how much money they have—that’s random. I only care about how honest, critical, and open-minded the person in front of me is. Everything else doesn’t matter much.

    But it’s important to remember that human fights aren’t tiger fights. Let any physical blood stay in the past; it’s ancient and outdated. We fight with intellect, with sense, with concepts, with ideas. You don’t punch—you troll, you laugh. Of course, you should always be ready to punch if needed, only to protect yourself against undeveloped Neanderthals. But you never play dirty, as much as possible. Keep it intellectual.

  • On things

    What matters is how flexible a thing is, how adaptive it is.

    For example, a tiling setup like Sway with a bunch of terminals is, today, a more optimal thing than some stale Windows with a pile of limitations, donkey-level productivity, and crippled multitasking. In a Linux (or any other open source) terminal-based tiling workflow you can hold a lot of tasks at once, switch between them quickly, fully control the machine, and accordingly scale and widen your spectrum of actions.

    Or take clothing. All those polished little suits and over polished outfits do not even naturally fit human nature. They fit more the nature of a peacock. Human essence is struggle, movement, and constant improvement of oneself and one’s environment. In that sense, the most broadly usable clothing is smart technical fabrics, muted tones, strength, durability, and a certain basic simplicity. That also belongs to the concept. If the thing is not bullshit, then you are always ready. And even when you are not, it still does not get in your way.

    This width of distance, this breadth of application, this capacity of a thing to remain useful across situations — that is the essence of the object.

    And that essence is the key indicator of its value for us, as human beings.

    All the best things in this world can look sophisticated, yet the core concept is always simple inside. If it is a thing, it should simply work well — honestly and openly, without complexity or greedy tricks. If a thing can survive real, deep testing of its core necessity, then it is a good one. A simple experiment: imagine the hardest times. Would that thing survive and help you, or would it sink faster than you notice? Apple, Windows, Google, any luxury, bullshit corporate jobs, 80% of modern age politicians — all of it would not just fail quickly, but betray you the moment things became real.

  • “PrO Ai”

    Microsoft: Copilot is for entertainment purposes only

    Anthropic does a somewhat similar thing. If you visit their ToS (the one for Max/Pro plans) from a European IP address, they replace one section with this: Non-commercial use only. You agree not to use our Services for any commercial or business purposes and we (and our Providers) have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity. It’s funny that a plan called “Pro” cannot be used professionally.Source

    I’m sick every time something requires me to sign another ToS. No, I don’t agree with your corporate bullshit. Usually, if I run into ToS, especially a sophisticated one, my mood automatically switches to anonymous mode, or I just leave.

    I can’t shake the feeling that big tech, cloud AI, and all that are a disaster, just like social media rot. At the core, both AI and digital community are great ideas, but they are often packaged and delivered to the market by greedy, manipulative assholes, which in the end just leaves so much pollution.

    llama.cpp / Hugging Face / tuned open-weight models — that is much closer to the real thing. If it is USA corporate ToS junk, no matter how big and sell trained it is, then it should be used only in a hard sandboxed setup and as anonymously as possible. They have grown to used to spying on everything, openly selling your private data, and doing other dark shit.

    Don’t get me wrong, not everything made in the USA is bad. It is just that their reputation for blindly chasing profit above everything else, after so many years of it, speaks louder than anything. I really don’t trust anything closed-source coming from there. Small USA companies – probably you can try, big ones – red flag, corporate cloud – very red red flag.

  • Algorithmic feeds

    Introducing so-called smart, algorithmic feeds to social media many years ago was not progress. It was open disrespect toward users. It was basically a message: we will decide what you see, what you think about, what gets your attention — and you will take it. That was the moment social media started to rot. Not only the platforms themselves, but the whole idea behind them. From there it got worse: less freedom, less real choice, less direct human connection, more manipulation dressed up as convenience. And people accepted it. That is the worst part. They got used to being fed garbage and called it normal.

    I never had much to do with big-tech social media because from the start it felt false and rotten. I used it a little during one year at university, mostly because it was hard not to, then dropped it. I left university too. The modern education system is flawed, inefficient, and I wanted no part of it. That was over ten years ago, and I have never regretted choosing my own way.

    Freedom and independence are not easy, but they are worth it. Harder life, maybe — but cleaner. More effort, but also more truth. What you build is yours. And most important: real experience, full spectrum of all colors, covered with the highest reason, that is one of best values to us, humans.

  • Post USA & SaaS, Sovereignty-First Software trends

    SaaS is not dead yet, but its spell is breaking. For years we were told to rent everything, trust the cloud, and let distant companies hold our data, workflows, and memory. That bargain now looks dumb and weak. I feel people are tired of subscriptions, surprise pricing, lock-in, and software that stops feeling like a tool and starts feeling like a landlord.

    AI speeds this up. When code is cheaper and faster to produce, the value shifts away from access and toward control. If a product can be copied, replaced, or rebuilt quickly, then the real question becomes simple: who owns the data, who controls the machine, who can leave without begging. That is why self-hosting, local-first tools, and software that runs in your own account or on your own server suddenly feel less like a hobby and more like common sense.

    Politics matters here too. The United States has damaged its reputation badly. Years of instability, wars, populism, corporate capture, and now dumb authoritarian leadership have made “just put it on American big tech servers” sound reckless to many people. Outside the US, that trust is just fading away right now. A new world order is taking shape: more fractured, less innocent, less willing to hand critical systems to companies tied to one empire’s laws and moods.

    This is why the next era is sovereignty-first. Not anti-tech or anti-business. Rather anti-dependence. People and companies still need software. They just want software they can inspect, move, back up, repair, and survive with. The winners in this era will not sell captivity. They will sell reliability, support, migration, security, and calm. There is pain in adapting to this. Ownership is harder than renting. But it is worth it. There is something clean and beautiful in standing on your own ground again.

  • Lack of critical thinking about laws among masses

    A lack of critical thinking about laws among the masses is a really bad thing. What’s really bad about the masses, normal people, basic Jacks, all of that, is that they blindly obey authority. After years in a system of enforcement and obedience, they get used to not asking real questions. They only question things if their so-called idols do it first, like with dumbshit MAGA or Putinists. They ask only what they were told to ask.

    There’s this illusion that if something is up there at the top, it automatically means it’s the truth, no matter how absurd it is. Nazi Germany, MAGA, people obeying big tech corporations, all that just chasing illusory comfort and so-called stability, when in life there is no stability, only one deep-rooted hard rule: survival of the fittest.

    That’s what I dislike most about them. Like, what the fuck, can’t you just ask yourself whether that law is real, necessary, or just? No, they just obey any law, including stupid ones. And only later does resistance usually start, often with intellectuals. The masses only begin to support it when they’ve really been screwed over by their so-called rulers.

  • “AI slop is basically an existential threat to these companies”

    An interesting comment from the internet:


    Facebook and other billionaires are pushing it (+1)

    rsilvergun 3 hours ago

    It’s mandatory for them because there is so much AI slop now it’s starting to infect their data sets. Facebook doesn’t give a shit about the quality of their advertising because no matter how many bots there are people keep buying the ads. But the advertising is only about 1/3 of their revenue 2/3 of it is selling data to brokers and law enforcement.

    There is so much AI slop and it is so sophisticated it’s becoming difficult to keep it out of their data sets and that’s gradually making the data sets useless.

    So they are going to force complete tracking under the guise of think of the children so that they and they alone know who is a bot and who isn’t. As an added bonus is also means that they can effectively and easily figure out who is a person and use their data to train llms.

    AI slop is basically an existential threat to these companies because at the end of the day they do need to know who is and isn’t a real user and they need to be able to do that quickly and effectively. So mandatory age verification is the way to go.

    Your privacy is completely irrelevant. And frankly I think it’s irrelevant to most people here. Everyone will talk about how important privacy and internet and anonymity is but when it comes time to vote a dozen other issues come first often pretty stupid ones.

    So Mark Zuckerberg can go around buying up laws and there really isn’t anything we can do about it because voters prioritize other things

  • Copying Open-Plan American Living Without Understanding the Conditions and real quality

    Making living rooms with refrigerators is an idiotic trend in modern house building.

    These architects watched too many cheap pop American movies and sitcoms and started confusing staged interiors with real life. In real life, the kitchen must be isolated from the actual living space, because cooking is dirty. It brings smells, noise, heat, grease, and clutter. You can eat in the living room if you want, but you should never cook there. A kitchen is a work space, not part of the room where people rest.

    Developers keep cutting and merging rooms as much as possible, then they sell this compromise as something modern and sophisticated. It is not sophistication. It is just a cheaper layout dressed up as progress. They copy the surface of an American fashion without understanding the conditions behind it. Even where that style exists, it only becomes tolerable with much bigger homes, better ventilation, quieter appliances, and more distance between functions. Strip that away and what remains is not elegance but a cramped mistake.

    Older apartments understood this better. They put kitchens in their own separate area, almost like toilets or laundry spaces: functional rooms, not part of the social center of the home. That was correct. Modern buildings keep mixing the kitchen with the living room and selling that collapse of boundaries as something elegant, advanced, or cosmopolitan.

    Real comfort needs separation. Real living space should feel clean, calm, and protected from the mess of cooking. Blending kitchen and living room together is not refinement. It is confusion marketed as taste – bad taste after all.

  • Stop Designing for Idiots

    Keep it as simple as you can while making the core functionality clear and open. Expect end customers to be real people who deserve respect, not primitive idiot hamsters. It is so clear to understand, and it makes life 100% better, yet there are always assholes and small-minded people who are not able to extrapolate their model of the world beyond their own lazy heads.

    Take sounds, for example. Once I was in Argentina, and it was one of the worst places I have ever been in this regard. They loved nonsense, disturbing sounds everywhere. A car going out of a parking spot would make four high-pitched sounds that could be heard from 3 km away from all sides, even though it was moving out slowly with lots of mirrors. Absolutely unnecessary, yet they seemed to think people were too dumb to notice. It just made things worse. And I am not even getting started on how absurdly bad Argentinians were about dogs: it felt like every one of them had a dog barking nonstop from a balcony, with none of the normal laws or standards you would expect in places like the UK. I left Argentina as soon as I could, especially Buenos Aires.

    Another example there was elevators. They liked to put loud, high-pitched, unnecessary alarms every time the door opened. It was impossible to live calmly in such buildings, because every time somebody used something as normal as a refrigerator, you got notifications like there was a fire. I once saw the same shit around the coastal Pacific area of Chile too. Even so, Chile itself is miles ahead in overall development and quality of life compared with Argentina.

    Do not be like that. Keep it simple, and respect the humans around you. They usually are not stupid.

  • Again about age verification

    Random comments from internet you obviously can not disagree with (if you got minimum brains)

    – “Why the fuck can’t parents do their fucking job and turn on parental controls. I guess fuck my privacy

    – “It’s not about the kids. That is just an excuse for state level surveillance of people.

    Age verification idea sucks, and it’s a sign of this dark age of stupidity. It’s old stupid morons who are trying to push their primitive mind models over the whole society. You go do deep thinking and testing, you will see that dumb restrictions and surveillance like that lead to nothing but disorder and mess. When will governments finally understand that it’s people’s own thing that they decide on their own.

    Its techno feudalism bullshit forced by stupid mediocre minds corporations and governments are always full of just by their over scaled bureaucratic nature. Resist and fight back. And remember that beautiful word of freedom, privacy respect, open sources and ideas, its just much more better to live in.

  • Not suppresion, Not Elevation

    You do not overcome a deep psychological struggle by simply blocking a bad urge, and not by replacing it with another cheap comfort either.

    Real change begins when you turn toward something higher: discipline instead of indulgence, freedom instead of dependence, steadiness instead of inner chaos, readiness to endure hardship instead of always trying to escape it.

    The point is not distraction, but devotion to something you truly love and know to be better than comfort, consumption, and the empty things people so often chase. Many of those things are not genuine needs at all, but habits, pressures, and temptations that keep a person dependent and easy to use. Time helps reveal this. When you test things over the long run, much of what once seemed urgent falls away on its own.

    What remains is what has real weight: quality, simplicity, freedom, honest self-respect, truthful self-criticism, and from these a better version of you can grow, along with a real will toward what is true and good.

  • Ai and pollution

    Very likely: AI keeps expanding, but the backlash shifts from “is it smart?” to “who pays for the power and pollution?”

  • The Essence of the “I”

    I think I have begun to understand what the “I” really is.

    The self is not a single point inside the mind, nor a solitary voice hidden somewhere behind thought. It is something more general: the overarching algorithm of a network of modules within the cortex. The mind appears to consist of many groups of neurons and many dynamic states, each specialized for particular tasks, yet capable, at times, of substituting for one another. What we call intelligence may therefore rest on a universal and distributed principle rather than on any isolated center.

    From this perspective, the “I” is not identical to any one process. It is not this or that calculation, not a single perception, memory, or reaction. Rather, it is the higher-order unity that arises above them: the general pattern that organizes, relates, and integrates the multitude of processes into one coherent structure.

    Consciousness, then, may be understood as the appearance of this unity to itself. It is the moment in which the overall contours of the system become visible, as if light were cast upon a structure so that its boundaries and essential elements begin to glow. What is illuminated is not activity, but form: the architecture of relation, hierarchy, and integration that makes experience possible.

    In this sense, the subject is something emergent. The “I” is born not from a single mechanism, but from the hierarchical super-network formed by many interacting modules. The self is the general algorithm of that network, and consciousness is the revelation of its living structure from within.

    To say “I” is therefore not simply to name an individual thought. It is to refer to the whole organizing principle through which thought, perception, memory, and identity become gathered into one presence. The self is not a point. It is a pattern of patterns, a unity above processes, a structure that becomes luminous.

    Perhaps this is what the “I” has always been: not a thing, but an emergent order; not a substance, but a form of integration; not a single voice, but the total architecture through which the mind becomes one to itself.

    If I start thinking very deeply and ask myself honestly — am I a point, a dot, a solid thing? — at first it seems so. But when I go deeper, I begin to understand more clearly: I am a tightly packed cluster of different things, complex, yet whole. The moment in time in which that contemplation happens is what creates the illusion of the “I” as a point.

  • Ai slop and lack of trust

    “Number of AI Chatbots Ignoring Human Instructions Increasing, Study Says.”

    Sandbox and limit use of Ai as much as possible, also keep away from american corporations and their “clouds” as hard as you can! There are a lot of good alternatives. If you are blindly trust them, you are gonna lose hard some day.

    You absolutely can’t trust (corporate) AI in general, and that is fundamental. It should only be used for hard-sandboxed, boring routine tasks that are strictly controlled and supervised.

    I use AI only for coding assistance, to quickly build a function or analyze a data flow, and as a grammar editor. sometimes I use it for internet research. In general, that’s all. Absolutely never for real work – quality worth too much and I need to see.

    Most people are going to swallow a lot of shit because of this first wave of AI hype & crap anyway.

    BTW if I personally ver see AI-generated content, I almost immediately lose respect for the cheap assholes who thought it was fine to publish that slop — instant reputational damage. Ai is not fun, its mostly just junk. Only in hands of true masters it may generate some usefulness. Humans are still the boss and the reason of all that.
