Also, note that this is a *UK* statement which says that something is *completely wrong*. Quite a wording.

Ich habe schon vor Jahren in einer Recherche gelernt, dass es nicht nur darauf ankommt DASS man warnt - sondern auch, WIE. Zum Beispiel sollte man sofort verstehen, was man jetzt eigentlich tun soll.

Diese irre Warnung, die gerade alle in Berlin bekommen haben, ist das beste Beispiel dafür.
Die Verwaltung dieser Stadt ist wirklich ein Witz. Ein paar Stunden bevor der tagelange Stromausfall endgültig behoben sein soll, verschickt sie eine Warnung vor „Extremer Gefahr“.

Curtis Yarvin has written a very long screed in defense of his post in which he said, “Hitler spoke the truth.”

A sampling of select portions is below and includes, in reference to Jewish people, the words:

“The only way to tell is the name and the nose.”

"Superintelligence" 🙄 claims aside, I think he's right. LLM boosters always start dissembling when you point out that the tech has two critical problems—it scales poorly and routinely generates errors—and nobody has a clue how to fix either. Both problems appear inherent to the tech itself.

Das ist die neue Realität: Es gibt im Ausland Leute, die uns EuropäerInnen umbringen wollen. Plain and simple. Und das Allerverrückteste daran: Es gibt bei uns politische Parteien, die diesen Mächten freundlich gegenüberstehen und sich von ihnen fördern lassen. What a time to be alive.

It‘s really fascinating given the whole debate about alleged restrictions to free speech in Europe, that while 59% of Germans say they are free or extremely free to express their opinion, even if unpopular, 61% of Germans think people *in the US* are not too free or not at all free to do so.
