Instead of giving the state another avenue for oppression, what if we label religion as the disease that it is and work with mental health professionals to develop a treatment for it?

iPXE maybe? But there's a lot of implementation details you would have to figure out. Two that come to mind are:

  1. A mobile device from which you can selectively provide an image for booting

  2. A physical intrusion detection system for your home machine that you can also read remotely

I could see the US working on a manufactured virus or something similar. China steals the research, botches it, and accidentally releases it into the wild.

You seem to spend a lot of energy questioning people's intentions, inventing reasons to question whether people's intentions toward you are genuine. Some do deserve to be questioned, no doubt. It just seems draining, and for what goal?

Do you aim to be the sole determiner of truth? To never be duped again? To sharpen your skills as an investigator?

How much more creative energy could you put into the world by taking people at their word in all but the highest risk cases?

Instead of poisoned kool-aid, suffocation by spray tan.

Why respond at all if that were the case?

What weighs more: the cost of taking people at their word, or the effort it takes to interpret the subtext of every interaction?

What would Altman gain from overstating the environmental impact of his own company?

What if power consumption is not so much limited by the software's appetite, but rather by the hardware's capabilities?

What type of response do you hope to elicit by discounting everyone's experience but your own and insulting the intelligence of those who engage with you?
