What's the crime? Calling an API endpoint?

Creating a malicious API endpoint, changing the API call you receive, and forging the signature so it all still works.

Ohio State graduation speaker says he took drugs to write speech

Days before the Sunday ceremony, OSU�s chosen speaker Chris Pan said on LinkedIn that he had taken the psychedelic drug ayahuasca to write his first drafts.

�Got some help from AI (Ayahuasca Intelligence) this week to write my commencement speech for 60,000 grads and family members at Ohio State University next Sunday,� Pan wrote. �Tried ChatGPT but wasn�t that good.�

Pan was billed as a �social entrepreneur, musician and inspirational speaker� on the commencement�s program. But his speech and an on-stage demonstration with OSU President Ted Carter drew boos from the audience, audible in the university�s livestream, as Pan tried to encourage graduates and attendees to buy cryptocurrency.

�Saving is not enough because inflation exploded after the pandemic, which is why everything got so expensive � I see Bitcoin as a very misunderstood asset class,� Pan said.��It is decentralized and finite, which means no government can print more at will.�

It was part of Pan�s pitch for investing, which he said was prevented by internal factors, rather than external like student debt or market conditions.

�The mechanics of investing are actually easy, but it comes down to mindset,� Pan said. �The most common barriers are fear, laziness and closed-mindedness.�

Ohio State spokesperson Ben Johnson declined to comment on Pan�s mention of Bitcoin but clarified that the university does not approve its chosen speaker�s speeches before the ceremony. When asked about Pan�s comments about using psychedelic drugs to create the speech, Johnson said staff viewed his draft versions.

The university�s own coverage of the commencement also made no mention of the crypto commentary. Instead, it focused on other parts of his speech, like his encouragement of civility in society.

Berke�s experience serving a man who put away 16 servings over the course of two hours was actually mild compared with some of the other stories I�ve heard. Josie, 19, who also asked to be anonymous, worked at a (now-shuttered) Kansas City Red Lobster, where she watched a solo diner take down 30 orders of fried shrimp within four hours. According to the nutritional information on Red Lobster�s website, that�s something like 14,000 calories.

�He was a skinny guy too,� Josie said. �I was like, Where is it all going?�

I also assume your metabolism and thus shrimp eating capacity vastly expands when your body is covered in amphetamines patches

Sounds to me like the security actually is working if the CCP are moaning about it.

china wisely bans The Orb

e: lmao

The watchdog accused Worldcoin of collecting personal data �unfairly,� saying the privacy notice and bio-metric data consent form were not available in Chinese. Worldcoin�s staff operating the iris scanning device also did not give any explanation or confirm participants� understanding of the documents, it said. Such practices showed that there was a lack of transparency, the PCPD found.

looks like they haven't improved the process at all since they were lying to people in africa about it, great

the orb doesn't actually do anything though. there were reports a while back about the dogshit quality of worldcoin's biometric data and verification.

china has an entire homegrown system of dubiously functional surveillance and biometrics they've been using for well over a decade. they don't need to steal sam altman's broken bullshit

specifically it records a bunch of personal information so they can train a neural network on it that will do things at a nebulous future date, iirc
