  • again, I don’t mind calling it satire that wasn’t my point. It’s just very strange, for something that actually provides code that break AGPL and “ironically” takes your money for it. It’s very strange. I saw the satirical elements aswell but i thought it to be some weird marketing ploy as stated in previous comments. That’s why I edited my og post and stated that it’s too good because it might as well be real in a literal and metaphorical sense.




  • I made an edit on this matter but yes it is indeed satire, apologies, however it’s still pretty strange how they did this…i agree with you though vibecoding and close sourcing your shit is just so useless. I can’t believe I fell for it but I’m relieved I’m not the only one, and again, despite what you said, how is this still technically satire if it works as intended? No matter how bad it is, the joke doesn’t land once you involve money and an actual product.




  • I am obviously not against reverse engineering, i don’t think you get the point I’m trying to make. It’s the intent, and just the complete disregard for free software under the guise of “satire”, which has been a staple in AI-centered circles(ooooo look we’re the villains and there’s nothing you plebians can do about it).

    Technology is neutral, AI is neutral, the people who run it and build businesses around it to fuck people in the ass, however, are not.



  • I don’t disagree with you and that’s most likely what’s going to happen, however it’s more so the direction in which this is going which haunts the hell out of me. I’m not just “AI bashing” it’s just dystopian. Now we could play this off as just an edgelord CEO if, you know…there wasn’t any financial backing to this and genuine interest.



  • Is that your counter argument? Are you dense? A youtube link doesn’t inherently remove the evidence that’s present: it processes payments and generates code and as far as I can tell, does what it says it does. Now we can discuss how efficient it is or not, if it actually does exactly, to the letter, as advertised. My point remains the same, if this is the direction these AI bros wanna go in, they should be chased out of tech centered communities. Quite simple really.





  • I reccomend you start with a vps, local pc is possible but in any case(in my personal experience at least) you’ll need a public IP anyways(which is hella expensive for personal use). In any case, you’ll have to get a vps. I suggest you check out Contabo. Good prices, pretty ok for hardware related things. I’d suggest you start Nextcloud, a website, very basic stuff. If you are planning to use a local pc, be advised that power will be a big factor. Unless you want to have to pay a lot on your electricity bill, avoid hosting too many things on your local pc(unless you want to have full control over your data, but I personally think if you apply basic cybersec principles, a VPS is fine). I do understand though, despite that it’s not fully reccomended, I want to locally host my own mail server to have full control. It comes down to personal preferences and how much control you want.
