Then why are people starving?


Israel is starving 2 million plus people by collective punishment area access denial and the blackmarket for food trades USD$250 for a dozen eggs.


This is not true. As of Jan 2026 the price of eggs in Gaza is 25 Shekels for 30 eggs:

You’re just repeating old outdated bits of propaganda.

Also, nice that you’re estimating that there’s been no decline in population size over the past 3 years. At least you slipped a bit of truth out in an attempt to demonize them.


The generous interpretation of the OPs comment it was gentle hyperbole but directionally correct relative to the not so distant past.


This is vibecoded. How are we supposed to believe that any of the descriptions aren't hallucinated?


I’m not affiliated with the site in any way, but it does not strike me at all as vibe coded. If you dig even just a little you can see that it is credited to studios and individuals who have their own separate web presence. And in fact, their manifesto explicitly rejects using AI even for translation because of quality concerns.

So please offer the evidence that allows you to confidently dismiss it as vibe coded.

This is just Google Gemini with a vibecoded front end, isn't it.


Yes, but in my experience the system prompts making a huge difference. It's personally helped me enormously and I'm not just saying that because I made it.


The 'DEAN' and his goons in this story is a classic example of a psychopath.

> The moment I entered the room, the Dean just started shouting at me.

> while we were leaving, the Security Officer saw my phone was recording. and this is where all hell broke loose.

> one of the security guys just held me. and started being rough with me. like pushing me around and shit.

> Everyone was shouting at me, i felt like I was being harrassed at this point, and honestly, it's a little embarissing, but i just got overwhelmed. like with all this shit. I started crying, literally balling my eyes out.

> Then the dean called me to his office. To his credit, like i guess seeing me cry and be so sad, the dean became really really nice.

> to the dean's credit, like half an hour later, he literally came to my room, to check up on me and that i was good. like that's really nice of him, he didnt have to do that.

Textbook case of abuse. Scream at a child who's smaller than you, don't let him get a word in edgeways, physically assault him when he attempts to hold you accountable, then when he finally crumbles, act all sweet and sugary like you've done him a favour.

The dean is the real asshole in this story. It's psychopathic abusers like that who need to be removed from educational institutions. Places where they can wield their power like a weapon, abusing it against people who they know can't fight back and give them what they really deserve.


It is literally forced upon you. If you are a fully grown adult, you have every right to use a device you own as you wish. But Apple and the ever-increasingly Orwellian UK government disagree. Your device is crippled until you consent to surveillance. You are forced to hand over your identity to be allowed to use the device you bought and paid for as you wish, and now your every move on that device is linked directly to you.


> But Apple and the ever-increasingly Orwellian UK government disagree.

You misplace your judgment on Apple. They didn't make the first move, they are responding to a government of a country they wish to continue operating in and made a business decision to start working on the feature and get ahead of it before governments start demanding they build the feature in specific ways (ie, the demand that Apple build a government backdoor, but turns out they can not be forced to build the government software, only be forced to turn over what they have). Building it first their way is actively doing something, it's controlling the implementation, while others seem to want to wait to be given specs by said government. It's happening either way. If you don't like it take the activism to the government, you know, the entity that is actually forcing this on people.

As an aside:

> You are forced to hand over your identity to be allowed to use the device you bought and paid for as you wish, and now your every move on that device is linked directly to you.

> Your device is crippled until you consent to surveillance.

For Apple devices it already was and you already have (sure, not if you are part of the small handful of people that never connect the device to telecoms or the internet or any networking, or use any apps other than preinstalled/offline jailbroken ones).But if the argument was in good faith, we know that is not how the majority of people use these devices.

> It is literally forced upon you.

It literally is not. You are not "forced" to do anything, no one is forced to buy or use the device. No one is "forced" to update iOS. There are alternatives, if you don't like the those alternatives and only want an updated current or new Apple device without age verification, well now you have a choice to make. Or make no choice, the choice is yours.


The AI model is likely trained on Stack Overflow posts, or otherwise related content from wherever off the internet, so most likely it will have ripped off enough hand-written posts or articles on how to quit Vim. So of course it can regurgitate the required keystrokes on command.

And will the writers of those posts, who contributed their knowledge to help out their fellow humans, get a fraction of a penny for the hundreds and thousands and millions of dollars of profit the AI corps are making off the backs of their labour? I somehow doubt it.


Where did they get the brain cells from?


Why not, you know, bite an apple?


Looks like it may already have been patched, it's not working for me.

Seems I'm not the only one either: https://github.com/xyzeva/k-id-age-verifier/issues/7


It absolutely will not make formal verification go mainstream.

What it will make go mainstream, and in fact has already started to, is “ChatGPT verified it so it must be OK.”
