New comment by diebillionaires in "Our position on open-weights models"

This is just another case of a business insisting their people should be in charge of the evaluation of the safety. Worked really well for Boeing right?

Also I find it incredibly difficult to hear any company in the US worry about repression of people when financial repression is happening here. I’ve been to China and seen what the services to the public are like. Meanwhile the US funds and employs AI weapons in an ongoing genocide.

Apple was already on the edge of "too expensive". Now it's obscene. I think this really opens the door for the new intel framework 13 pro.

New comment by diebillionaires in "ICE Appears to Be Buying Immigrants' Tax Identifiers from a Data Broker"

Opt outs don't even exist at the top level, only on the people search ones utilizing the data.

This was covered in NOH's data broker article. But mostly Snowflake or AWS.

Linux + Website needs to return as the ultimate form of self publishing. Back when an internet search was the platform.

New comment by diebillionaires in "Bambu Lab is abusing the open source social contract"

diebillionaires — Tue, 12 May 2026 16:43:18 +0000

I bought my bambu labs ps1 about 4 years ago now. I have never connected it to the internet. I've never printed from bambu slicer. I've always exported the gcode and manually placed it into the machine. It's been a nuisance and I'd never recommend Bambu to anyone else because of this. I knew they were collecting from the beginning and I CHOOSE to do it this way, which is incredibly sad. Our data has a lot of value and I refuse to be monitored. I just wish more people would choose to push back.

Have you seen construction workers lately? They have machines for everything. I highly doubt they even need to lift things any more.

New comment by diebillionaires in "Migrating from DigitalOcean to Hetzner"

diebillionaires — Sun, 19 Apr 2026 13:16:21 +0000

I moved away from digital ocean about 6 years ago and never looked back. I found their customer support to be rude, and their offerings to be overpriced.

Lame. "We don't want AI pointed at our code so we're going closed source". That's hilarious and a cover up.

Agree with a lot of this except sqlite, and the fact that if I commit to building something I typically put it in the cloud with basic scaling from the start for efficiency.
