You can still Duolingo and dodge (most of) the bullshit.

Use GrapheneOS.

Install Duolingo from the Aurora store, no Google account attached.

Sandbox the app and set its permissions to disallow location, disallow pulling contacts etc.

Make your Duolingo acct with a fake name and burner email (sucks for you if you already made one with your primary email and real info).

Manually add "friends" via their Duolingo usernames.

Note that, like Facebook, your contact info could be getting shared by other users who have your real info listed in their contacts. Not much you can do about that. (In fact, you could use none of the apps on this list but your contact info is probably still getting leaked by your normie friends and acquaintances.)

Legal in that there isn't a specific law against it. Several Reps and Senators at various times have proposed a ban on Congresspeople trading individual stocks (presumably they could still have index funds, mutual funds etc.) but shockingly enough those measures didn't pass.

Here's the thing... It was a bubble because you can't wall off the entire concept of AI. This revelation was just an acceleration displaying what should've been obvious.

There are many many open models available for people to fuck around with. I have in a homelab setting, just to keep abreast of what is going on, get a general idea how it works and what its capable of.

What most normie followers of AI don't seem to understand is, whether you're doing LLM or machine learning object detection or something, you can get open software that is "good enough" and run it locally. If you have a raspberry pi you can run some of this stuff, and it will be slow, but acceptable for many use cases.

So the concept that only OpenAI would ever hold the keys and should therefore have massive valuation in perpetuity, that is just laughable. This Chinese company just highlighted that you can bruteforce train more optimized models on garbage-tier hardware.

It's their fault for letting the healer pull the boss.

Its going to be a crazy matchup. I don't know how literally any team gameplans against Eagles O-Line plus Saquan. That combo just shreds defenses and makes them look silly. That said, if anyone can do it, it would be Andy and Spags.

I've said all season the Chiefs have a way of dragging you down in the mud with them, confident that they are just slightly better than you are at being a dirty pig. People on here just seem to bitch about refball but that is a whiny and pointless take.

Take the points and force them to drive the field, score a TD and convert a 2-pt try just to tie you.
