[BuBBliK @k1rallik]

do you understand what just happened to your computer..

Google Chrome secretly downloaded a 4GB AI model onto your device. Without asking.. Without telling you..

It's called weights.bin. It lives deep in your system folders. It powers Gemini Nano - Google's on-device AI.

And if you delete it? Chrome re-downloads it automatically. Like nothing happened.

Just Google deciding your hard drive is their storage unit.

At 1 billion Chrome users - that's 4 BILLION gigabytes of data pushed silently across the internet.

The carbon footprint alone equals tens of thousands of cars running for a year.

Check your disk right now:
📁 %LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\OptGuideOnDeviceModel

To stop it: chrome://flags → disable Optimization Guide On Device Model → restart Chrome → delete the folder.

Reshare so people know what's sitting on their computers.

Why did past societies build so much "useless" beauty everywhere — and why did we stop?

It might be a measure of a culture's health... (thread) 🧵

Let me explain to people who have never worked a concert venue before….

After Jack Black & his band Tenacious D celebrated the near assassination of Trump on Saturday they got about 10,000 calls and texts from all the concert venues they’d booked canceling their reservations. You see these places have to carry insurance to cover any mass casualty event. Some places it’s literally the law they have to have a certain level of coverage.

[James Lindsay, anti-Communist @ConceptualJames]

In reading about Mao's reign in China in the 1950s, I was particularly taken by a concept and phrase I hadn't heard yet, one that the Communists used to absolutely devastate China and overthrow all resistance. They held meetings that were designed to "Speak Bitterness."

This man's name is John Hurley.

Three year ago today, John was shopping in Arvada, Colorado, when someone started shooting. So Johnny found shot and killed the shooter.

Then the @ArvadaPolice killed him.

For days afterwards, the @cityofarvada tried to make it sound like Johnny had been killed by the shooter, but after multiple FOIA requests and investigations, they finally owned up to the fact that their officers killed him.

According to their investigation, Kraig Brownlow is Johnny's killer. He shot Johnny in the back.

Johnny was a hero, and one of the leaders of @WeAreChangeCO, an independent media group who seeks to, in their words "expose the fraud of the left/right paradigm, and reveal that the world truly functions on a top/down hierarchy that threatens to destroy free society as we know it."

Months later, the government announced that Brownlow would not be held accountable for Johnny's killing, despite the fact that he never even attempted to positively ID him as the shooter, or even tell him to put his gun down before killing him.

Johnny was facing away from Brownlow, and had already stopped shooting minutes before.

In their statement, city officials said "this incident illustrates the nearly unfathomable decisions society asks our police officers to make as they go about their everyday work."

It wasn't unfathomable for Johnny. He just identified the shooter and killed him. Apparently that's too much to ask from Johnny's killer.

They then said "We hope our decision not to file charges will bring a small piece of closure to those affected and that in this finality there is some healing."

Imagine killing someone, and then telling his loved ones that you hope your decision not to hold yourself accountable brings them closure and healing.

Worse yet, the shooter apparently hated police and was attempting to kill as many as possible.

Johnny saved the lives of Arvada Police officers. Those same police killed Johnny for saving them, and the government protected his killer.

Johnny Hurley was a hero, even before he saved lives. The Arvada government isn't fit to clean his shoes, and we will not rest until the impediments to holding government accountable for their crimes are removed.

On this day, I ask that you take a moment to remember Johnny's heroism, and the absolute travesty in how his killing was handled by the Arvada government.

RIP Johnny.
Thank you.

Alright, buckle up for some hard truths.

First, read through the comments and you'll understand why we're in the death throes of western society.

"Move out of the blue states" works until your red state becomes a blue state and you've got no where else to run to.

"This city or that state is lost" is the 21st century equivalent of the weak bodied peasant who cries out "all is lost" in terror at the first sight of an army approaching their city walls.

Considering the military campaigns and sieges of the last 2,000 years of history, the fight hasn't even started - and yet the mass of the citizenry is willing to capitulate at the first sign of hardship what was won for them by their forefathers at the cost of great toil and blood. Don't ignore these people, they'll open the gates at night and let the besiegers in if it means they can save their own necks.

"Dems this and Rinos that" blame game doesn't get you any closer to solving the real problem. The real problem is the multinational owned uni-party and its control over your "sovereign" state.

"Why is this happening" is the wrong question to be asking. We know why - your government has sold you out to foreign entities who had the highest bid. Like an occupied servile-state of WWII, your resources are being funneled to support out of country interest that are in direct opposition to your own. You just haven't noticed because there are no foreign soldiers marching in your streets (yet).

You are surrounded by cowards and traitors within the ranks.

The question to be asking is not "how" or "why" this is happening.

The question to be asking is, what are you going to do about it?

One more time for the people in the back. Stop giving your money to defcad. They do more harm than good. They always have. I'm just glad they are behaving this way publicly so you all can see it. This sort of unhinged behavior used to only happen in DMs and phone calls.
