> Omarchy releases support for ARM Macs
> 2 days later Asahi Linux conveniently switches to GPL license
rather than improve the project, they sabotage the one that’s actually moving. stagnant for years and still acting like someone cares.
Asahi Linux is moving everything from the MIT licence to GPLv2-or-later.
Asahi is the volunteer project that reverse-engineers Apple Silicon Macs so they can run Linux. In today's Linux 7.3 progress report, developer James Calligeros explains why: people have been using the permissive licence to take the team's work. "In some extreme cases, in-development feature code was being lifted straight out of our personal forks and published without attribution or lazily rewritten with LLM assistance to obfuscate its origin."
The report points to WINE, which switched from MIT to LGPL in 2002 for the same reason: "Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it."
The same report brings real wins too. M3 Macs now install without the EXPERT flag, Thunderbolt support (USB3 and networking for now) is shipping to users, and the team got GTA IV and Fallout: New Vegas running outside the muvm VM using Google's per-process page size patches.

Yo @grok
Jared Kushner’s father hired a prostitute to seduce his own brother-in-law, secretly filmed it, and mailed the tape to his sister as blackmail. After serving time as a convicted felon, he was pardoned by Trump and now serves as the U.S. Ambassador to France
Is this true? Yes or no. No spin.

Honestly once you have a Cybertruck you can’t picture yourself in another daily driver. Going to a Model Y would be a massive downgrade to me.

FOREIGN-BORN EMPLOYMENT JUMPED 809,000 IN OCTOBER. ⬆️
NATIVE-BORN EMPLOYMENT FELL 64,000. ⬇️
Foreign-born workers made up 19.5% of everyone employed in the household survey. In September it was 19.1%.
American jobs disappearing. Foreign-born booming.

It’s CRAZY to think that many of us Tesla fans might NEVER buy another new Tesla again!
At this rate, it feels like Tesla is moving toward canceling every model and focusing entirely on Robotaxis. And honestly, I’m losing the excitement I once had for the brand.
I love FSD, but I still want to OWN and DRIVE my Tesla! This is NOT the future I was excited about.

my chrome vulnerability was just awarded the highest bounty in @GoogleVRP history - $1,333,337
ALT Lyra Rebane Marked as fixed. vrp-reward: 1000 -> 1333337 Status: In Progress (Accepted) -> Fixed
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The author clarified this was a joke after being mistakenly given edit access and changing the bounty field themselves. Google did not award or pay $1,333,337. Chrome VRP max rewards are far lower, around $250k.

Heads up! Talemann's Dead Space VR (2008) mod will be releasing today. (Actually within the next half hour). You will need a copy of the 2008 version of the game, either on Steam or GOG. It is cheapest on GOG at 7.99 USD. It will be in today's VR HUB.

Looks like I'll be going with Figure, then.
Elon couldn't have put a bigger dent in my enthusiasm for his companies than he did this week. I've followed this man for 14 years.
It's one piece of horrendous news after another.
I will **never** lease a robot.

During the Roman Sterlingov trial it was a "matter of national security" that the Chainalysis data not be shared with the defense for a fair and objective review... now it's the old:
"We take the security of your data seriously and regret that this incident occurred." 🤡
🚨 Chainalysis confirms data breach exposing credentials and active tokens for all customers
Blockchain intelligence firm Chainalysis has confirmed that hackers gained unauthorized access to its systems, exposing usernames, password hashes, and active authentication tokens belonging to all users.
The breach, initially disclosed on October 30, has since escalated into a wider security incident. Chainalysis confirmed that some customer passwords were intercepted in an on-path attack, while suspicious activity forced the company to take several services offline, including Reactor, Data Solutions, and its Know Your Transaction (KYT) platform.
The incident raises serious concerns for law enforcement agencies, financial institutions, and cryptocurrency businesses relying on Chainalysis for blockchain investigations and transaction monitoring.
All customers will be required to reset passwords and rotate API keys where applicable. Chainalysis says it has found no evidence that investigation data was accessed or blockchain attribution records were manipulated.

The complete reversal of everything promised.
This is why they lost.
They will blame you for noticing their own deception.

Introducing Arete-27B: Qwen3.8-27B, post-trained to reinforce Western values.
Chinese open models are currently the strongest available, but they ship with state-aligned behavior in the weights. We built an 803-prompt eval across seven value categories, including freedom of expression, democracy, and privacy, and measured how often a model adopts China’s party line.
After fine-tuning on roughly 53 million tokens, Arete-27B's propaganda rate fell from 22% to 1%, in line with the Western models we tested. Its Hermes Bench score shows no significant performance tradeoffs.
The values in an open model are one fine-tune away.
Our eval, weights, and training data are available now along with the full blog post: nousresearch.com/arete

Cybertruck also had HUGE marketing problem.. sales pretty much held on customers referrals and people on X 😂 if you ask anyone on the street they STILL have no idea how cool this vehicle is. Definitely marketing problem. Have you ever seen Cybertruck TV commercial showing its features ?
