650REDHAIR··on OpenAI frontier models and Codex are now available on AWS
Bezos and Altman pinky-promised and are super trustworthy.
650REDHAIR··on YouTube to automatically label AI-generated videos
I’m not going to dox my YT channels, but I do know the difference between the two and a year ago YT admitted to automatic AI “enhancements”.

I’ve also seen the trend of TV clip slop using AI filters to I assume get by automatic copyright flagging/removal/de-monetization.

650REDHAIR··on YouTube to automatically label AI-generated videos
Isn’t YouTube applying weird AI processing to shorts?

So all shorts will be labeled?

Maybe I’m not the target audience for Google products anymore?

I have to use Yandex and DDG for search results now.

Gemini has insane throttling so I’ve just embraced local models for most things and the occasional API call to whatever frontier model I think will work best.

YouTube search is abysmal and new content is 98% consumerism BS.

My Gmail is mostly spam and mailing lists I can’t seem to get off of with the occasional scam attempt thrown in.

Guess I’m just ranting to rant at this point. I grew up online and now the internet feels weird and I think I might be “over it”.

650REDHAIR··on Is "colorectal cancer" rising in "young people"?
It did, but my contribution for procedure + pathology was still over $5k. My out of pocket max is ~$8k.

Get it done!

But not at Kaiser.

$17k later…

650REDHAIR··on Flipper One – we need your help
Is there somewhere I could read about the ongoing flipper zero issues?
650REDHAIR··on Apparently Google hates us now
I saw a comment on here a few days ago and the user mentioned that they use a Captcha AI bot in their day to day life because a solve costs $.003. So even if you had the captcha-enabled new version it might not have helped!
650REDHAIR··on Google changes its search box
I ran into one that kept referencing "people", but then I found that it was a single Reddit thread from a couple of years ago about a relatively small and obscure foreign city with 2 replies.
650REDHAIR··on Gemini 3.5 Flash
I've had the $20 Gemini plan to use when my local setup runs into tougher problems and the throttling today has been bonkers. I canceled my subscription and will look into upgrading my local setup.
650REDHAIR··on Google I/O
Why are these comments being downvoted?
650REDHAIR··on Google I/O
Just in time for mass cancellations after their usage rug pull!

Canceled my $20/mo tier.

Two prompts took me into 67% usage. One of those prompts was lost completely and errors out when try to access it.

Gemini users are livid.

650REDHAIR··on Apple Silicon costs more than OpenRouter
Interesting! I just spec'd one out maybe ~2 weeks ago and I guess I should have pulled the trigger!
650REDHAIR··on Anthropic acquires Stainless
Because Altman is an objectively bad person, mostly.
650REDHAIR··on Apple Silicon costs more than OpenRouter
I run whisper through openwebui to gemma4 moe and use kokoro TTS back to me.

I use a 5060ti 16gb and a minipc.

I tunnel in via Tailscale and access it with my phone or laptop from anywhere. It’s pretty good and will only get better as I optimize.

650REDHAIR··on Apple Silicon costs more than OpenRouter
Also after a few years you can sell and upgrade.

A 2022 Mac Studio w/ M1 Ultra and 128gb was ~$5200 new and I see them selling for over $4k on eBay.

Can’t sell your used tokens…

650REDHAIR··on Apple Silicon costs more than OpenRouter
I’ll keep my data local over a $.02/mtok difference.
650REDHAIR··on U.S. DOJ demands Apple and Google unmask over 100k users of car-tinkering app
Or, I don't know, enforce current laws on the books and have cops do their job?

I've watched traffic code enforcement drop to essentially non-existent numbers largely because apathetical agencies and "officer safety" concerns.

I'd rather they go after people actively rolling coal instead of violating the rights of thousands of Americans like me.

650REDHAIR··on Show HN: Agentic interface for mainframes and COBOL
US banks and creditors desperately need this yesterday.
650REDHAIR··on Googlebook
Awful branding aside this will be dead within 3 years.

MacBook neo @ $499 and the ability to finance it leaves almost zero room in the US market for an Android laptop.

*edit

It looks like will be a ChromeOS successor and their demographic will be schools?

650REDHAIR··on UCLA discovers first stroke rehabilitation drug to repair brain damage (2025)
You’re right.

Let’s just skip straight to human trials.

650REDHAIR··on How OpenAI delivers low-latency voice AI at scale
If anyone has an alternative I’m all ears.

This would be a killer feature for me and something I’ve tried to use on cross-country road trips.

650REDHAIR··on HERMES.md in commit messages causes requests to route to extra usage billing
Once the dispute was resolved on the card side did anthropic claw back the $100? Was your account penalized in anyway?
650REDHAIR··on I bought Friendster for $30k – Here's what I'm doing with it
Yeah that was the most out of touch HN comment I’ve seen in a long, long time.

Persistent irrelevant celebrities are a real thing, but those two wouldn’t crack the top 500.

650REDHAIR··on Apple fixes bug that cops used to extract deleted chat messages from iPhones
I’m frustrated that Signal isn’t notifying users about this.

I disabled notifications and instead Signal reminded me to re-enable them…

650REDHAIR··on Alberta startup sells no-tech tractors for half price
Maybe for "motorcycles" like Aptera.

Large car manufactures will lobby to avoid competition of barebones, cheap cars.

Danielle Smith knows how to trample curiosity.
650REDHAIR··on Notes from the SF peptide scene
It’s wild, but unsurprising to me. Coke, “noots”, and psilocybins were big a decade ago and the same argument could be made about their provenance and origin.

I was close to a name brand pre-workout company and the FDA would play whack-a-mole with their formulas and they were on store shelves in every US city.

650REDHAIR··on NASA Force
Yes, our stretched thin controllers watching the feed from a satellite field makes total sense.

Maybe they could try a pilot program somewhere like LGA?

650REDHAIR··on EFF is leaving X
I thought Twitter post-Elon was a free speech zone where "comedy is legal again"?
