I'm going to quickly choose one person to draw on this base as a sample (I'm still working on the base). So, comment with your character reference and I will choose someone in like an hour!
‘Fancy a game of Murdle?’
‘You mean Wordle?’
‘No. It’s a new one I made up.’
‘Quordle, Worldle, Heardle… this is just another #example of jumping on a trend. Can’t you come up with something more original?’
‘That’s 1 strike. You have 5 more.’
‘Then what?’
‘You’ll see…’

The way frontier labs have restricted access to cyber capabilities makes no sense. If you're considered a "defender" you're not allowed access to the "offensive" versions of the models (the ones that can do development/validation of malware and exploits).
So for example, if you want to build some sample malware to test a detection system, nope.
Or if there's a major crisis due to a critical vulnerability in PHP and you need to rapidly triage fake exploits to see if there are any real ones floating around so you can warn people, nope.
Want to build a remote code exploit to make sure the detection rules you plan on proposing to the clients actually work? Hard nope.
You gotta call your red team friend and wait for them to do your job for you, because "defender" are only allowed to play in the sandbox with the children.
Not an expert, but I think that the ability to triage in-the-wild exploits during a major crisis affecting 40 million systems is possible maybe important.
And then they want to ban abliterated open weight models, which half of the people are only using because frontier labs will only give them access to lobotomized models.
If you want to become a more productive version of yourself
Have a “To-Do-List”
Its such an underrated habit, but you will be surprised with how much you can achieve if you stick to it
People underestimate how boring consistency looks from the outside.
If your trades don't start looking repetitive, you're probably still experimenting rather than executing.
Remember that an edge isn't validated by a few winning trades. It's validated by repeatedly applying the same process across a statistically meaningful sample size.
🇷🇸 🚨 BREAKING: Serbia's Aleksandar Vučić has conceded defeat to the student-led movement that has spent nearly two years in the streets trying to oust him.
"Based on the sample, it is clear that we have lost these elections," Vučić said at his party's headquarters. He put the Student List at about 2.2 million votes to 1.72 million for his bloc. That works out to 130 to 140 of parliament's 250 seats, a clear majority. Official results are pending.
Vučić has ruled Serbia as prime minister or president since 2014. In that time his party took over state institutions, and he was accused of muzzling critical media. He resigned the presidency last month to run for prime minister.
The movement erupted in November 2024, after a newly renovated train station canopy collapsed in Novi Sad, Serbia's second-largest city, and killed 16 people. Students blamed corruption and rallied behind the cry "Pumpaj," Serbian for "pump it," meaning keep up the pressure.
REPORT | Tens of thousands of people from across Serbia are marching to Belgrade for what is expected to be a massive demonstration against the government of President Aleksandar Vučić. Serbia has seen sustained, almost daily, protests for months since November when a train station roof collapsed in the second largest city Novi Sad, killing 15 people. Protesters have blamed rampant corruption for the disaster and since then the protests have swelled with many demanding the resignation of the government, which they denounce as a fundamentally corrupt institution.
Vučić has vowed to use force against the protesters in Belgrade tonight and groups of his supporters have also taken up positions in Belgrade, raising fears of violent clashes. Journalist Dušan Čavic (@sedamdeseti) co-host of the popular YouTube show @MarkaZvaka, is covering the demonstration for Drop Site.

I asked this question in the grok app and it wouldn't respond at all. Let's see if it responds here.
Hey @grok, why are these markings appearing on posts critical of Isreel and only on posts critical of Israel? No bullshit, no lies, no spin...the truth.

Storms Only Kindness Survives
Gray skies on desert minds, labyrinthian thoughts
I write them down, yet your memories escape me
It takes us apart now waning a little at each look
Such eloquent glances my only recourse back.
Kind sanguine emotions befriend Melancholia
Sweet poignant hunger beckons tomorrow's rain
You're memory is all I still hold as a song begins
Lyrical storms ask me if we're the same anymore.
I met a poet on a day when gravity forgot to stay
Your sweet eyes danced as if you were free to be
What is a feeling when we're only tourists here?
Each time you write about us, a poem asks why.

In 2002, the state of Washington told Lydia Fairchild she was not the mother of the children she had carried and raised.
She was 26, pregnant with her third, and had recently separated from their father, Jamie Townsend. When she applied for public assistance, DNA testing was routine. The results confirmed Townsend as the father. They found no genetic connection between Fairchild and any of the children. The lab repeated the test. The outcome did not change.
Prosecutors began discussing welfare fraud. They raised the possibility that she had been a surrogate who kept the babies or had obtained the children by other means. They mentioned a polygraph.
She said she would take one. Instead the state issued a court summons and moved toward removing the children from her care.
When she went into labor with the third child, a court officer stood in the delivery room to witness the birth and supervise the blood draw.
The sample was taken from the newborn minutes after delivery, in the presence of a witness, so the chain of custody would be beyond dispute. Two weeks later the result came back: no match.
Her attorney, Alan Tindell, had read a case published that May in the New England Journal of Medicine. A 52-year-old Boston woman named Karen Keegan had needed a kidney transplant.
Two of her three sons did not match her DNA when tested as potential donors. Researchers later found a second genetic profile in her thyroid tissue. Tindell brought the paper into court and argued that his client might be the same rare biological phenomenon.
Investigators tested Fairchild’s parents, then sampled her skin and hair. Finally they tested a cervical smear. Those cells matched the children.
Fairchild is a chimera. Early in her mother’s pregnancy, two fertilized eggs that would have become fraternal twins fused into a single embryo.
She developed as one person carrying two distinct sets of DNA. Most of her body operates on one lineage. Her reproductive tissue operates on the other—the lineage she passed to her children.
The charges were dropped. She kept her children.
The case remains one of the clearest documented examples of tetragametic chimerism, a condition that can make a mother appear genetically unrelated to the children she gave birth to, until the right tissue is tested. 🌹
