dumb color choice aside: McMansions have these jumbled nestled gables with multiple out of place rooflines because they are literally AI Slop
since AutoCAD entered widespread use in the 80s, architects largely stopped designing exterior and structural elements first for a coherent overall design, and instead work “from the inside out” to maximize square footage…. they then force architectural design software to patch the mess together with absurd auto-generated geometry
in the modern normie mind this slop is now equated with “luxury”
Trippie Redd turned his $7.5 million Florida mansion almost entirely black.
The rapper bought the 18,923-square-foot home in Southwest Ranches in 2022. Sitting on roughly 4.6 acres, the property includes nine bedrooms, an indoor basketball court and an eight-car garage.
By 2024, its Mediterranean-style exterior had been dramatically transformed: the walls, roof and even the driveway were finished in black.
Trippie Redd calls it “The Black House.”

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-Vision-Exp is now live on the DeepSeek API Platform! 🚀
🔹 This experimental multimodal model matches DeepSeek-V4-Flash on text capabilities—including agents, reasoning, and world knowledge.
🔹 On multimodal agent benchmarks, V4-Flash-Vision-Exp makes a major leap over V4-Flash, bringing multimodal agent performance close to Opus-4.8.
Try it with model='deepseek-v4-flash-vision-exp'. DeepSeek Harness 0.1.1 was released today with out-of-the-box support for the new model.

‼️🚨 ALARMING: Google now treats privacy as suspicious behavior by default. Users of GrapheneOS, CalyxOS, /e/OS, and other deGoogled Android phones are being locked out of millions of websites unless they install the exact Google Play Services software they deliberately removed.
GrapheneOS is recommended by the EFF and used by journalists, lawyers, and activists in high-risk environments. The audience most likely to read Google's data practices and refuse its terms is now flagged as fraudulent for that exact decision.
What happened?:
▪️ Google announced "Cloud Fraud Defense" at Cloud Next on April 22-23, 2026, branding it "the next evolution of reCAPTCHA." Existing reCAPTCHA customers were auto-migrated.
▪️ When the system flags traffic as suspicious, the old click-the-bus puzzle is gone. Users get a QR code instead.
▪️ Scanning the QR code requires Google Play Services running on the device. Internet Archive snapshots show this requirement has been live since at least October 2025, silently rolled out for 7 months before anyone noticed.
▪️ No Play Services = no QR scan = locked out.
The bigger picture:
▪️ Google already tried this in 2023. It was called Web Environment Integrity (WEI), and it would have let Google decide which devices were "real enough" to access the web. Standards bodies and the public pushed back hard, and Google killed it. Three years later, the same idea is back, just hidden behind a QR code instead of a browser feature.
▪️ reCAPTCHA runs on millions of websites. Every developer who keeps using it is now, by default, telling deGoogled Android users they're not welcome...

Not counting the keyboard, this is an incredible piece of hardware. Such a shame they wasted it on macos

When Meta trains it models on 80+ TB of pirated books from LibGen and other platforms, it's called 'fair use', without them having to pay penalties and / or receive some form of legal punishment, as proceedings are ongoing.
When Aaron Swartz downloaded 70 GB of articles from JSTOR in 2010 he was facing a $1M fine and 35 years in prison, before taking his life in 2013.
