I can confirm @xAI was the only Western AI I was able to use when I was traveling in China
Because my eSIM was routed through Hong Kong
Both Anthropic and OpenAI fully block Hong Kong
Again, it's not Hong Kong blocking them, it's them blocking Hong Kong
Also did you know Elon's mom lives in Shanghai?

This is exactly what annoys me about Claude Code
You're treated like a child getting lootboxes just to be able to do your work while you pay massive amounts of money for extra usage tokens
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49413750
I won't use SnekAI but I'll probably switch to @xAI soon
I already run all my sites on them and I trust them as they don't lie all the time

My last Airbnb booking went so crazy that Airbnb deleted our review of her but kept her negative review of us
She was mentally insane and threatening us so we mentioned that in the review, but that's "offensive" π

When buying interior for our house we discovered most sofas, chairs, rugs, carpets, curtains now use materials that are almost without exception fully plastic
And of course they shed all this plastic in their lifetime that they sit in your house, and you just end up breathing in nanoplastics over 10-20 years
It's very hard to find stuff with natural materials, these days and if you do find it, it's super super expensive
Also most times the sales people look at you like you're high when you ask for it
But sir this is "ultrasuede alcantra olefin", all those terms are bullshit, and it's all plastic
Unless they say cotton, wool, linen, silk, cork, or actual natural latex, it's generally just plastic and you'll be breathing it in (or worse)
They often use fancy names to cover up it's all plastic:
- "vegan leather" that's literally just polyurethane (PU) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic
- "leatherette/pleather" same PVC
- "air leather" perforated PU
- "bonded leather" leather scraps glued together with PU
- "alcantra" luxury sofas use this and guess what: it's polyester and PU blended
- "ultrasuede" synthetic microfiber plastic
- "olefin" stain resistant polypropylene (PP) plastic
- "polyamide" a mesh of synthetic polymers
- "lustrous" or "trevia cs", both used in curtains, both fully polyester
For our house we mostly have cotton, wool and leather finishes and it wasn't easy to get that, most is custom finishing because almost nobody asks for it!

Hotel ACs in Europe are now designed to show it being about 4Β°C/9Β°F colder in your room than it really is
The difference there is if you put it at 20Β°C, it'll actually be 24Β°C!
This is a product feature sold to hotels so they can save money on energy while tricking guests into thinking it's colder than it really is
"It must be only me thinking it's hot here?"
No it's not you! It's hotel AC displays lying to you!
If you wanna figure this out
Get the @airthings air quality and temperature sensor (all in one)
Not affiliated or paid but I love their product

Strava's data is quite protected so I couldn't index it for Hoodmaps
But the good thing is the US Census data publishes median income level and the data is very fresh and accurate, so I added it to πΊοΈ http://Hoodmaps.com
So now you can switch to [ π° Income mode ] and instantly see wealth or lack of wealth concentrated

Today is a very historical moment for AI video generation
You can now generate AI video faster than you can watch it
Before it'd take let's say 2-5 minutes to generate 15 seconds of video
@fal made a post-trained Minimax H3 variant called Max which is 50x faster than the original but still maintains quality
It generates 15 seconds of video in 9 seconds!
That means you can now do new things like build a perpetual livestream with it that never ends!
π @rehan_shei: https://x.com/rehan_shei/status/2093528415576211819
Can try it here for free https://fal.ai/minimax-h3-max

Okay I built it!
π° Infinite Slop
http://levels.io/infinite-slop
An infinite and interactive AI generated live stream of slop that goes on forever and ever
Anything that you write in the chat is generated next and AI will try to connect it to the previous video so there's an actual sequence and story line
Idea by @marcantoinefon and @rehan_shei's original stream so I made it
It'd be very expensive to run this so @fal very generously sponsors this
They also fine-tuned the model that makes this possible for the first time, making Minimax H3 50x faster and as "Max" and it can now generate videos faster than you can watch them, very cool!
Let me know what you think!!!! π
