arczyx··on Why is this fingerprinting script creating bioweapons?
The web interface for Deepseek is strict nowadays (probably due to legal reasons). But if you use the API it pretty much won't refuse.

> distressing lack of regard for human rights

The US couped, invaded, and destroyed tens of countries since WW2 until now. Israel is still massacring civilians in Gaza during a ceasefire and continuing their pogrom in the West Bank, killing people and stealing more lands. This is your example of human rights?

arczyx··on We are going to kill "unalive"
If you're talking about Gaza, basically all major human rights organizations deem it a genocide. This include Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, UN Human Rights Office, and even Btselem which is an Israeli organization.
arczyx··on What is the size of Yemen? (2024)
What you linked is literally a bunch of self-claims by Israel like I said. "Oh there is a bunch of civilians on the roof, let's just circle two of them and call them Hamas".

Provide real evidence that's not just "IDF said so". Though you probably can't, because if you can, you wouldn't give a random pdf from a NATO propaganda think tank instead of a real source.

Meanwhile Israel's use of using Palestinians as human shields are well-documented by Israeli organizations:

arczyx··on What is the size of Yemen? (2024)
There isn't a picture of it because it doesn't exist? They have bunkers deep underground and that's it? Israel bombed civilian infrastructure because they want to kill civilians, the bunkers underground are just fine. Or else why would you think Hamas still exist today even though basically all of Gaza's building is obliterated?

Meanwhile Israel claim every hospital in Gaza is a Hamas base without any proof, not a single photo at all. Burden of proof is on the accuser, if you support Israel's claim, you should be the one providing evidence.

Note that Israelis already admitted they intentionally targeted civilians, https://www.lemkininstitute.com/single-post/israeli-soldiers...

> The first major case to break headlines in western media was the murder of two Christian women at Gaza City’s Holy Family Church on 16 December 2023. A Palestinian Catholic mother and her daughter were killed by an Israeli sniper while seeking refuge inside the church compound, resulting in condemnation from the pope.

> In January 2024, British broadcaster ITV captured the moment when 51-year-old Ramzi Abu Sahloul was shot through the chest, only moments after he had spoken on air. Sahloul was part of a group of civilians who were fleeing to Rafah in Gaza’s south while holding white flags on the orders of the Israeli military.

And that's not even mentioning their pogrom in the West Bank right now, https://www.haaretz.com/west-bank/2026-10-01/ty-article/.pre...

> The village's municipal council head reportedly said that the settlers attacked residents' homes under the protection of Israeli forces. The IDF also reportedly blocked an ambulance in the village, seized its key and threw it away

arczyx··on What is the size of Yemen? (2024)
There is literally no evidence at all the hospitals in Gaza are used for military purpose other than Israel's claims (and their botched attempt to fabricate evidence by placing guns in MRI machine of all place).

US and Israel also bombed hospital in Iran even though it's obviously clear that Iran doesn't fire ballistic missiles and drones from it.

> Israel didn't lift a finger to hurt them before they attacked Israel

Israel is genociding Gaza and still killing people and stealing more lands in the West Bank. Under international law, we are required to do whatever necessary to stop a genocide. Unfortunately only Yemen that step up to actually do that. The US and other western countries keep supporting the genocide.

> Ignoring the curse upon Jews and and victory to Islam, how convenient.

Israel is the one who proclaim they represent jews all the time. Until 90% or more jews condemn Israel like how 90% muslim condemn ISIS, it's a statistically accurate statement.

arczyx··on What is the size of Yemen? (2024)
Yeah sadly some people still supports the US and Israel considering how many hospitals they bombed so far.
arczyx··on What is the size of Yemen? (2024)
Given what the US and Israel did to them it's not surprising.

> According to two of the sources, armed members of the US military were preparing to board the ship. Military planes were in the air, one of those sources and another source familiar with the incident said.

> It was only just before the planned operation that officials dug deeper into the report put together by a special operations command analyst and found it had been generated with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) — and that a chatbot the analyst had used inaccurately identified the material the ship was carrying. CNN was not able to learn what the misidentified cargo was.

> The report, according to one of the sources, was “entirely false.” But it also “almost started a war,” the source said. Any US operation against a Chinese vessel could have risked spiraling into an armed conflict between the two nations.

arczyx··on A robot is sprinting towards you. Do you want it running on Claude or Grok?
Yes, the author basically assume you're somewhat familiar with battle royale games.

As for the win condition you asked: become the last man standing.

arczyx··on A robot is sprinting towards you. Do you want it running on Claude or Grok?
The one who win is the one who survive to the end. If there are 10 players and you kill 5 but then die immediately, you lose to the player who only kill 1 but become the last man standing.

Probably the same way Claude can play Pokemon: give it a bunch of informations and let it make a decision by itself to achieve a specified goal.

> actively hunting down and murdering on a consistent basis

There's only one man being killed in the article you linked, and his killing is way more complex that the article made it to be.

https://www.npr.org/2024/09/27/g-s1-17637/hebron-west-bank-i...

Pretty sure that's not enough evidence for 'actively hunting down and murdering on a consistent basis'.

On the other hand, Israel had probably killed tens if not hundreds or thousands of queers in Gaza as of now. That surely count for 'murdering on a consistent basis'.

arczyx··on SpaceX disables 2,500 Starlink terminals allegedly used by Asian scam centers
it's not hard to understand. people simply not liking queers doesn't mean they deserve to be bombed. also there are queers in Palestine and they are getting bombed too by Israel

Pretty sure Drupal has been around for like, 20 years or so. Or is this a different Drupal?

arczyx··on Why is OpenAI buying Windsurf?
OpenAI has way more users and brand recognition than Windsurf. If they decide to make their own code editor and marketed it, I'm pretty sure its customer base will surpass Windsurf's relatively quickly.

Yes you need to get sober first, maybe then you'll realize how absurd it is calling someone who are against Israeli tanks killing children as a 'tanker'.

> but saying China's power is "better" feels tone-deaf, especially considering places like Hong Kong

I'm no expert on Hongkong, but I'm pretty sure it's nowhere as bad as a genocide where 50% of the victims are children funded and supplied by the US. So yes, China is better.

> Specifically, every one of us who worked in an emergency, intensive care, or surgical setting treated pre-teen children who were shot in the head or chest on a regular or even a daily basis. It is impossible that such widespread shooting of young children throughout Gaza, sustained over the course of an entire year is accidental or unknown to the highest Israeli civilian and military authorities.

> I think it is unfair to point to military mistakes as undermining all of U.S. credibility.

US didn't invade Iraq and other countries "by mistake". Same with all the coups and regime change operations. If you think these many instances are mistake, well then I have a bridge to sell to you.

> But China ultimately having that power scares me more than an American company having it.

Well for people not from US, China having that power is absolutely better. After all, unlike the US, China hadn't invaded another country or instigated coup for the past 40+ years.
