On May 7th, Governor Kathy Hochul announced that New York's Fiscal Year 2027 budget will become the first law in the United States to mandate surveillance software inside every 3D printer sold within the state. It will make it a Class E felony to possess or share a 3D-printable file capable of producing a firearm component. Every printer sold in New York must ship with print-blocking algorithms that scan each job in real time and refuse to execute anything the algorithm flags. The sales pitch is "ghost guns." The mechanism is a permission gate inside a machine you paid for. Pilot tests of the proposed algorithm by an open-firmware team triggered the block on 17% of non-weapon prints. Brackets that resemble triggers. Cylinders that resemble barrels. A model train coupling. A bottle opener. The algorithm cannot tell. It will refuse the print and log the attempt to whatever server the manufacturer is required to maintain. The same arithmetic the printing-press licensors used in 1660. The same arithmetic the Stationers' Company used to brand a printer's son for distributing tracts the Crown had not approved. The same arithmetic the early DRM crowd used to make a DVD ripper a federal criminal in 1998. A tool you bought, in a room you own, with electricity you paid for, becomes a deputy of the state at the moment of purchase and remains one for the lifetime of the device. Anything that takes a digital design file and outputs a physical object is now within the reach of a state that has declared it owns the question of which physical objects you are permitted to bring into existence inside your own house. The fence has spent forty years moving inward. Around the song first. Around the page. Around the cipher. Around the camera roll. Now, finally, around the workbench. The state has run out of digital territory to enclose and has started enclosing the atoms. The maker who prints a bracket for a broken washing machine tonight commits the same act, technically, that the law is written to stop. The algorithm will not know the difference. It is not designed to know the difference. It is designed to fail closed, to refuse first and let the human appeal upward through whatever bureaucratic channel the manufacturer designs, if any, on whatever timeline the manufacturer chooses, with whatever paper trail attaches to the request. Permission to print, denied. Submit a ticket. Wait. Unfortunately for New York, and fortunately for us, the firmware on every consumer 3D printer is open or near-open. All of them forkable, all of them flashable, all of them already installed on millions of machines outside the reach of any future New York compliance certificate. The CAD files at issue are mathematical descriptions of geometry that will be mirrored on a thousand drives in a thousand jurisdictions before the ink on the bill is dry. The state cannot bind geometry. It can only bind the people who agree to be bound. Forty years from now nobody will remember the ghost gun argument. They will remember the year a state government decided that the physical output of a private machine was the state's business at the point of manufacture.

The way I said “oh no…” before the video even started, knowing full well what was about to happen… I can’t stress enough how dangerous the outcome could’ve been letting yourself get pancaked by a morbidly obese woman 🤯

CYBERPUNK 2077 NOW RUNS IN YOUR BROWSER 🚨 WTF IS GOING ON, HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE LOL A dev called omonkeyzz got Night City running in Chrome using WebGPU. It's not cloud streaming. It runs on your own GPU, and the game streams in as you play.

WTF, $3000 Samsung TV has an always-on mic, automatic content recognition, geo tracking, network mapping, and ships your data to Samsung + 400 partners. Bro Rooted a brand-new 2025 Samsung TV after noticing absurdly targeted ads. Firmware was locked down, so zero-days it was. Got a root shell. then found: always-on voice service, ACR, geo, full telemetry pipeline, and four separate DRM systems. This isn’t a bug, It’s the product bro.

“I’m actually a radical Zionist.” That was Palmer Luckey, founder of Anduril Industries, speaking with Shawn Ryan in a 2025 interview. He goes on to explain his support for Israel as a Jewish state, saying he loves Jewish people more than practically anyone. He even raises the question of Palestinians himself, only to call it “a separate political issue.” 1:10 👇🏼📽️ So who exactly is Palmer Luckey? Would you be surprised if I told you he’s yet another tech billionaire whose success story began in his parents’ garage? 🫩 Luckey grew up in Long Beach, California. His father sold cars, and his mother homeschooled him and his three younger sisters. Fun Fact: His younger sister, Ginger, just happens to be married to Matt Gaetz. They met at Kimberly Guilfoyle’s birthday party at Mar-a-Lago in March 2020. By December, they were engaged at, you guessed it, Mar-a-Lago. Then they married in August 2021. 👰🏼‍♀️🤵🏻 So back to Palmer… In 2012, at just 19 years old, he founded Oculus VR after developing virtual reality headsets in the family garage. 👁️ And who, you might ask, was willing to hand a 19-year-old garage inventor $1 million to help launch Oculus? That would be Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund. Then in 2014, Facebook acquired Oculus for approximately $2 billion. Luckey was only 21 years old. Fast-forward past his falling out with Mark Zuckerberg to 2017, when Luckey co-founded Anduril Industries, a company that develops autonomous weapons, military drones, surveillance systems, electronic warfare technology, and underwater vehicles. Because why wouldn’t a gamer from California be welcomed with open arms by the military-industrial complex? And who helped finance Anduril? You guessed it. Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund. Again. Luckey is happy to explain NOW that the initials “AI” in Anduril Industries were intentional. But back in 2017, artificial intelligence was a bit of a dirty word, so they kept it kinda quiet. These days, he’s quite pleased with the acronym. But not surprisingly, there’s another story behind it. Anduril is Aragorn’s sword in The Lord of the Rings, known as the Flame of the West. 🗡️ I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that Peter Thiel’s Palantir Technologies is named after Tolkien’s seeing stones, which allowed people to observe distant events. 🔮 And then there’s Mithril Capital, another Thiel-founded investment firm, named after Tolkien’s rare and valuable metal. And who worked there? Vice President JD Vance, Charlie Kirk’s close friend and longtime supporter of Turning Point USA. Vance later co-founded Narya Capital, named after one of the Three Elven Rings, with backing from Thiel and Marc Andreessen. 💍 Thiel also co-founded Valar Ventures, another Tolkien reference. And Luckey has another venture called Erebor, a bank catering to technology companies, particularly those involved in cryptocurrency, AI, and defense. Erebor is the Lonely Mountain from The Hobbit, where Smaug guarded his treasure. 💎 And who’s among the investors? Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund and Marc Andreessen’s Andreessen Horowitz. That’s Anduril, Palantir, Mithril, Narya, Valar, and Erebor. At this rate, they’re going to run out of things in Middle-earth to name companies after. And speaking of Middle-earth, Luckey has some rather interesting ideas about subterranean warfare. Not just tunnels or underground bunkers. He’s talking about autonomous weapons and vehicles traveling through the actual crust of the Earth, using it as an entirely new battlefield. And according to Luckey, Anduril already has working prototypes. Anduril Industries has been actively supplying military technology for use in Ukraine’s war against Russia and is now pursuing defense business in Israel. Trust me when I say, what I’ve covered so far is only scratching the surface… No pun intended.

Netanyahu to Americans: If you're worried about today's gas prices, think of what will happen if Iran gets nuclear weapons, something that Trump and I will never allow. And when that happens, when that threat of that regime disappears, gas prices will go down. But only under Trump. It's not going to happen with those who want to accommodate and appease these tyrants.
