We added audiobooks to ChattyBooks. 🎧📚

The audio and text stay perfectly synced while you read.
So you can:
• Read along
• Listen at the same time
• Pause and chat with the characters inside the story

Books are starting to feel alive.

BREAKING: The UK is drafting a law to scan every photo, video and message on every phone in the country.

Tech CEOs who refuse to implement this could face up to 5 years in prison.

The proposal would force companies to build device level scanners that inspect content before encryption.

That means:

• Every image scanned
• Every message inspected
• Every video analyzed

All directly on your phone.

Governments and companies pushing these safety” systems already have a terrible track record protecting user data.

Last month, Europe’s new age verification app, promoted as a way to "keep children safe," was hacked in under 2 minutes.

In another case, over 70,000 IDs and selfies linked to online verification systems were exposed in a major breach.

Now the UK wants even deeper access directly inside your device.

Once governments force surveillance tools into every phone, they can expand what gets monitored at any time.

The Privateer Agent TUI now has a Zero-Data-Retention shield for OpenRouter. 🛡️

A live badge in the status bar tells you if your current model retains your prompts:
🟢 ZDR enforced 🟡 ZDR available 🔴 will retain / blocked

Toggle `/zdr` to pin every request to a zero-retention endpoint.

Your AI conversations are yours.

Privateer gives you access to every leading AI model — GPT, Claude, Gemini, and more — with end-to-end encryption baked in.

No snooping. No data harvesting. Just powerful AI, privately.

I wanted to take a moment to say how genuinely proud I am of everything accomplished with Privateer.

The effort and passion behind this project have been incredible. And the exciting part? We're just scratching the surface. Multiple platform releases are on the way, and there's so much more ahead for Privateer.

Thank you for being part of this journey.

@AnthropicAI Hype monsters.

Fable 5 is now accessible via Privateer and Privateer Agent's CLI.

However, we advise against using it at this time, no zero data retention providers are currently available.

As always, make your day your own!

Child safety online matters. But mandatory age verification creates a dangerous new privacy problem... massive databases of IDs, selfies, biometrics, and age-check records.

And those databases will be breached.

This is not hypothetical. EFF warned that hacks of age verification providers show exactly why forcing people to upload sensitive identity documents is risky. Discord’s age-verification/vendor breach reportedly exposed around 70,000 users’ government ID cards, selfies, and other sensitive information.

That is the core issue: to “prove” you are old enough to use the internet, everyone may be pushed into handing over the most sensitive data they have.

Once collected, that data can be hacked, leaked, sold, subpoenaed, or abused.

Child safety should not require building honeypots of government IDs.

If governments mandate age checks, they are not just regulating kids’ access to social media. They are creating new breach targets that put both children and adults at risk.

Protect kids online without forcing the entire internet through identity checkpoints.

@oldgamesnob No problem! Keep it up snob.

@oldgamesnob is crushing it creating a full AI tool suite for vibe coding/building games. He recently added an AI parallax background generator.

Check it out!

Pixal3D (free open source AI 3D generation model) I added it to Sorceress and anyone can use it for free (unlimited use until the servers melt) no GPU needed, no setup required - hope you guys like! [-link in comments-] #gamedev #aigamedev #ai3d

[Patrick Zanowski @patrickzanowski]

Even with all these coding agents *cough* Privateer tui agent *cough*

Developers need a base layer for typical distributed services. I made a bootstrapper that can quickly get an agent working on a full stack android, iOS and web infra.

Check it out! 🚀
