Big progress for SharpEmu! With the upcoming dev update, we can now get into a lot more 3D&2D games, and some are already playable with only minor graphical issues.

@PessimistsArc Right. Dario was already claiming that GPT2 was too dangerous to open source back in 2019.
I made fun of them then.
Everyone should make fun of them now.
Dario: we need to slow down AI development.
Elon: Dario is right.
Sam Altman: we agree.
Google: we’ve already been slowing down AI development for nearly a year.
Nightmare Eclipse, the person who has been dropping Windows zero-days, has finally decided to share his story. He's an ex-Microsoft employee, we had dinner together, and I've known him and his story for some time.
His real name is Abdelhamid Naceri. He's a very talented and intelligent individual, and he came across as someone who'd be a real professional to work with.
"If only I didn't pour my soul into that job with countless of stupid non sleep nights, i would have gotten over it..." - Naceri
He loved Microsoft.
I wouldn't say that what he did, releasing all those zero-days, was normal, but he felt he had no other option because of the injustice Microsoft did to him.
They fired him, and you can read the vague reason they gave in the email sent to him by the Vice President of Engineering at MSRC, below.
According to Abdel's account, VP Tom Gallagher met with him after the firing to tell him they were blacklisting him from Microsoft and writing him a bad reference so he'd never be able to get a job again.
Normally you'd think, well, big deal, just find another job, right? But Abdel doesn't have a European passport, and he was only a couple of months away from getting permanent EU residence.
So instead of granting him those couple of months, Microsoft fired him for a reason that, as far as we can tell, was never made clear, then fought him in court and offered him €55,000 plus a year's pay to drop the case.
All while Abdel was releasing zero-days.
Abdel continued suing Microsoft for unfair termination in Germany, a fight that has cost him over $200,000.
He says Microsoft refused to reveal any details about the security breach and went another direction.
If you are reading this, and you can offer him a LEGAL job, this is his e-mail: [email protected]

As I mentioned before, our nightly build, which improves compatibility in many games, is ready.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
Also, with this update, some UE games (or maybe all, I'm not sure) now boot successfully. And in a fork we're currently working on, we can get a visual display for Silent Hill The Short Message.
