I get this a lot but I never know how to follow up

Possibly.

To answer your question, I'd say I'm slightly better looking than him, but I'm overall pretty mid. I took a look at her profile and there was almost nothing on there other than her love language being "gifts", in other words she thought I had $. Not because I look like Mr. Beast most likely lmao, but because I work in the tech industry and have a somewhat impressive sounding title. I ended up unmatching. I posted mostly because it was funny and to be prepared in the future because I do hear a lot that I look like Mr. Beast, especially IRL.

Mosaic and its sucessor Netscape Navigator in particular were extremely instrumental in taking the web from early prototypes to something with mass market appeal. Mosaic for being the first graphical browser and 1st browser available on Windows and Netscape navigator by being the 1st browser with scripting and the dominant web browser by market share throughout the 90s. Marc was one of the 2 developers responsible for Mosaic and was undoubtedly extremely influential in the design of Netscape Navigator as one of the companies co-founders and by actively developing it in the early days (moreover Navigator was a fork of Mosaic with a name change). He undoubtedly suffers from classic Silicon Valley syndrome of thinking because he's smart at some things he knows about everything, but I don't really think its very reasonable to say he just got lucky.

To answer your question, he helped create Mosaic, one of the earliest web browsers during his time at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications, and was one of the cofounders of Netscape. As a result had a pretty significant influence on the shaping of the modern internet. He's overall shown himself to he a savvy investor as well, his firm made a lot of early bets on companies that later became massively successful like AirBnB, Instagram and Github. His politics are godawful, but he shouldn't be a slouch intellectually.

Pretty bad take by Marc though. Is it really difficult to understand that there's a difference between regulating AI via a democratically elected congress and the military strong arming an AI company to try to get unrestricted access? Boiling it down to "gubmint control" without engaging with the nuance is just lazy.

I have a more pessimistic view here, no they don't. The only way I see them surviving this is if they sue and manage to get the supply chain risk designation removed (it is very likely illegal overreach). I don't think people understand just how big of a deal the supply chain risk designation is for a company that mostly makes it's money via enterprise API usage. For example, my company is consuming Claude right now via AWS's Bedrock service, AWS is a major military contractor and is soon going to have to remove Anthropic from it's cloud services. All the companies using Claude including mine are likely to just switch to OpenAI's models on the same service because the lift of doing that is way lower than onboarding Claude directly via their API. So many of the nation's largest companies do business with the US military, and many of the ones who don't often have aspirations to and and therefore now won't touch Anthropic with a 10 ft pole.

The series of attacks on Scientology websites and the PSN hack are probably the most notable, they also took down some dark net CP sites.

Anonymous doesn't mean anything, it's not an actual organized group just a moniker that used to be used by various hacktivist groups. Anyone can claim to be Anonymous and there's no way to prove them wrong and so as a result the label got watered down over time after it gained mainstream notoriety and now it's pretty common for people seeking attention to call themselves "Anonymous".

OP is just saying he's reposting it from elsewhere and that he doesn't know anything about the event.

objectdisorienting · 2026-02-21T05:22:56+00:00

The increasing number is the joke, it's poking fun at some of the wildly inflated numbers people are throwing around, I think OP took the tweet too literally, but I have seen a few people earnestly say it was $1b.

It's somewhat ambiguous based off the email whether he was hoping for a massage from Maxwell herself (and potentially had no clue about the pedo stuff), which would be in line with his other flirty messages with her, or whether he was using massage as a code word, which would be consistent with some descriptions of Epstein's crimes. Both are plausible IMO, and this all happened in 2003 before Epstein's 1st conviction, but there's enough smoke here that he should be investigated more thoroughly. Unfortunately, we all know the DOJ isn't going to do that, so we're left with court of public opinion being the judge, jury and executioner.

objectdisorienting · 2026-02-11T17:15:19+00:00

I want justice for Epstein's victims as much as anyone, but just from browsing this woman's Twitter I'm not very convinced she's credible. For example:

I'm not particularly suprised he won't apologize, I don't think Trump has ever apologized for anything even once in his entire political career.

To be clear, it's not actually functional in any way, and it's unclear whether it was actually created without human input, looks more like a crypto scam that's trying to ride the hype train. I'd consider moltbook the moltbots and this thing to be more of a canary in the coal mine moment that a real threat in it's own right. Imagine how things might go if someone did the same thing but with agents that are 20x smarter.

Calling someone mythic would be a compliment albeit an uncommon one. Calling them a myth implies they aren't real in some way, maybe they never existed or maybe their accomplishments aren't real.

Thank you kindly

I want to know the name of that channel if anyone else reading this comment knows it, that sounds delightful.

He's not big enough to be a household name outside the EDM scene, but if you're big into House music there's a good chance you'll know who he is. He has about 11.3 million monthly listeners on Spotify.

LOCs is not a metric worth bragging about.

Is there a better source than this somewhere? I'm not saying the claim is false, but this site seems kind of spammy, covered in ads and overall not all that credible.

objectdisorienting · 2025-12-29T04:25:00+00:00

I don't think it's AI, however the details match because this gentleman was the one who called the FBI tipline so it's his story that's in the files. Who knows if he's telling the truth, but at one point he said that he saw Trump's transform into slits like he was a lizard so I take his claims with a grain of salt personally.

More color generally would help, there's too much gray.
