Nitter permitted perusing of twitter (x-cremente) without being tracked by whoever has the keys to the backdoors to twitter. This is why nitter is being killed - it destroys the surveillance capability provided by twitter/x/musk t

If a different model is using encyrpted blocks of another model, then by definition it is no longer a session scoped bit of information. Since you can give it to any other session and another model, clearly it doesn't even have to be t

Sure, but if each session has a unique key then these need to be managed and stored and unauthorized access to these leaves tracks. So all that had to be 'compromised' is a single universally applicable key. Again, the question st

Seriously, what does it take to encrypt per session? There are many ways to make it scalable and efficient so I am wondering if this is left like this to allow interested 3rd parties ahem unobtrusively peek what people are doing with the AI

That is absurd. This war is being waged for the benefit of Israel. Even the pussyfooting of the on and off strikes is to force the Arabs to sign on the so called Abraham Accords. Once this misadventure is over, Israel goes to be the dominan

Thanks. Always good to have a more complete and balanced picture. I did in fact recently read about the infrastructure works in France (and elsewhere) during that era. (Great read so far: Liaquat Ahamed's 1873: The Rothschilds, the Fi

As an aside, N. III's reign seems to have been overall something of a disaster for the French.

It is surprising that you have the fabled MIC on top of the list of the nasties and not the international bankers. MIC is 2nd tier parasite layer in context of unnecessary and contrived warfare. On the top are the bankers who give loans to

Why do you think this is only going to be in Europe? This will be the global norm modulo some astroid hitting earth or civilizational crash. The trajectory is crystal clear: access to information (AI), control over personal finance (CBDC),

I am guessing (not asserting) that there is a sort of cap on water used for agriculture. It's possible we've already reached it. (?) So, on the matter of scale: there likely isn't a cap on water use of these datacenters. Both
