Sick Beats: "Caged Bird (Instr.)" by RJD2
I wake up and take a look around me, astounding,
I'm stranded in strange and cavernous surroundings,
Robot built with scientific efficiency, but
Who I am and how I got here is a mystery

Total archive size: 385TB.
All downloads have been validated.
Next stage:
• Torrent generation
• Public availability
The website is now back online.
Why this matters:
Many gaming companies shut down the digital stores for older consoles.
If you didn't already buy the games, there is no official way to download them anymore.
ROM archives like this help preserve gaming history so new generations can experience the games we grew up with in the 90s.

Meta spent $26.3 million lobbying for "age verification" bills in 45 states. But the bills don't regulate social media. They regulate your operating system.
Someone traced $2 billion in nonprofit grants and lobbying records. Here's what they found:
1. Meta's lobbyist wrote Louisiana's age verification law. The sponsor confirmed it. It forces OS-level surveillance. Meta's platforms? Zero new requirements.
2. Meta covertly funded an astroturf "child safety" group to push these bills nationally. It has no EIN, no incorporation records. It doesn't legally exist.
3. $70M+ into state super PACs, deliberately fragmented across databases to dodge centralized tracking.
4. On every social media bill, Meta fights. On the one bill regulating operating systems, Meta just "monitors."
5. The EU solved this with zero-knowledge proofs. No biometrics. US bills mandate vendors that send your face to third-party clouds.
Meta profits from harvesting data. They wrote laws forcing every device to broadcast your identity through a system-level API. They built the surveillance. They wrote the mandate. They exempted themselves.
Every claim sourced from IRS filings, Senate disclosures, and state lobbying records.

this is actually insane
> be tech guy in australia
> adopt cancer riddled rescue dog, months to live
> not_going_to_give_you_up.mp4
> pay $3,000 to sequence her tumor DNA
> feed it to ChatGPT and AlphaFold
> zero background in biology
> identify mutated proteins, match them to drug targets
> design a custom mRNA cancer vaccine from scratch
> genomics professor is “gobsmacked” that some puppy lover did this on his own
> need ethics approval to administer it
> red tape takes longer than designing the vaccine
> 3 months, finally approved
> drive 10 hours to get rosie her first injection
> tumor halves
> coat gets glossy again
> dog is alive and happy
> professor: “if we can do this for a dog, why aren’t we rolling this out to humans?”
one man with a chatbot, and $3,000 just outperformed the entire pharmaceutical discovery pipeline.
we are going to cure so many diseases.
I dont think people realize how good things are going to get
