Every so often LinkedIn has a hit

@xeneks @asusevski The model still retains its training, but just can’t input or output those tokens. From my testing even when prompting the model in Mandarin or Arabic, the model reasons almost exclusively in English, defaulting only to the original question when quoting or in unique words

[Basel @bsaleh03]

@asusevski @westurbergin @Omi_Trek @andrebeaumont I did make sure to include non-ascii chars for math and code. If you can send me the traces of what tokens are missing I can add them back

🇮🇱📝 Israeli Community Notes

Yeah, this one was weird.

What happened was that whenever someone posted a photo from the aftermath of the Nova festival, no matter what the caption was, a Community Note would appear.

It read:

“This was already debunked in November last year by basically every major news source in multiple countries.”

It would then go on to link multiple news articles.

Essentially, the Community Note was trying to disprove the claim that Israel used the Hannibal Directive, in which they used Apache helicopters, tanks, and gunfire to kill their own civilians on October 7, which is true by the way, and I’ll post a video with multiple witness testimonies saying exactly that.

But the thing is, nowhere in the tweets did they say anything about that.

Instead, the Community Note was automated to appear on every single tweet that posted that image.

Why would they go to such lengths to try and silence something, even when that something isn’t mentioned in the caption, if their narrative was absolutely valid?

It’s because their narrative wasn’t valid.

It is a FACT that the IDF fired on Israeli civilians using Apache helicopters, tanks, and gunfire on October 7; they just don’t want people to know it.

Now, this rabbit hole definitely goes deeper, but this is just a mini-thread with easily digestible information that clearly showcases that, yeah, Israel is botting X, and botting it hard.

Despite this, they’re still losing the online narrative because:

Truth > Bots

tl;dr don't read TikTok dms ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Today is was announced an unknown Threat Actor(s) had discovered an exploit in TikTok which allows users to hijack accounts.

Details are scarce – however it has been noted that the payload (as it is being described) is delivered through TikTok direct messages. The payload is executed when the direct message is read. However, it does not require any external files be executed, the user does not need to respond to the message, etc.

No details have been unveiled on whether or not this is platform specific (i.e. Android or iOS).

The unknown Threat Actor(s) have compromised Paris Hilton, CNN, and Sony. It is claimed other high-profile and/or celebrity accounts have been compromised, but no other 'high-profile' accounts have been disclosed other than the ones previously noted. The TikTok security team is aware of the issue and has confirmed the legitimacy of the exploit with Forbes.

TikTok representatives stated to Forbes that a small number of users were compromised. No exact numbers were given. TikTok representatives have not stated if the exploit is still valid, how users can protect themselves, or what the attackers have done with the compromised accounts.

[austerity is theft @wideofthepost]

“Why has the PR been so awful?… typically the Israelis are good at PR—what’s happened here, how have they and we been so ineffective at communicating the realities and our POV?… some wonder why there was such overwhelming support for us to shut down potentially TikTok.”

This is the headline. Now watch the video.

If God wanted us to build Type 1 Civilization, he would have:

1. put a giant fusion reactor in the sky
(emitting blackbody radiation around 5800 K)
2. made 28% of Earth's crust out of a semiconductor with a matching bandgap (~1.1 eV or so)
3. filled the oceans with an alkali metal we could use to store limitless quantities of energy
(sodium or something similar)

That would be a crazy coincidence...

Not enough people seem to catch what happened here:

Israel stole a number of *Palestinian* children’s bodies when they raided Al-Shifa hospital last week.

They then used these bodies to stage a film for private audiences depicting the bodies as *Israeli* children.

[professional hog groomer @bidetmarxman]

You can disregard what you see in headlines today:

Tupac Shakur's murder was orchestrated by the FBI

They saw his rapid rise combined with his increasingly militant calls for organizing and social justice as a major threat.
