Konnan is so bitter about everything WWE.

 

If the ADR story is accurate, yes, he got screwed, but his contract was up anyway and everything said he wanted to leave. Also doesn't have anything to do with racism unless you can prove someone 'white' did the same thing and didn't get fired. ADR was also moonshotted to the top titles and matches quickly - where was the racism then? I don't understand the way the ADR situation is being handled with the tweets etc, but its not racist to fire someone.

I'm gonna guess he's been bombarded with "When are you returning?" tweets after the WWE 2K15 announcement earlier.

So Virgil told us his alleged penis size. No one asked him this. No one was even discussing this. He just volunteered this during a conversation about women. Here is a list of Virgil fun facts I learned, spoken by Virgil himself:  :rofl: wtf!

 

- He still works for WWE
- He has been in 17 WrestleManias
- He had a $7 million contract with WCW
- That contract was guaranteed money through 2005 (NOTE: Keep in mind, EVERY other WCW guy's guaranteed deal ended by early 2003)
- He once measured Daniel Bryan, and he is only 4'11"
- Andre the Giant was 7'6.5"
- If you wanted Hulk or Rock to sign something, they'd charge you $1,000. This is why his $20-30 charge was acceptable. Austin is $750.
- If you collected all of the NWO guys' trading cards, you could sell the set for thousands of dollars.
- The WrestleMania 4 main event was Virgil & DiBiase with Andre in their corner vs. Hogan & Savage with Liz in their corner
- Zach Gowen was in his late 20s when he was in WWE
- Virgil was the youngest man signed to WWE in history (NOTE: According to Online World of Wrestling, Virgil would have been 25 when he started in WWF)
- TNA paid Hogan $25 million and Flair $15 million.
- Undertaker's real name is Mark Caraway.
- Vince McMahon ran every other wrestling magazine out of business and is the only one left (ironic, eh?)
- The only official NWO shirt ever had "NWO 4 Life" on the front and "Too Sweet" on the back.
- After Vince bought WCW, he filled an entire landfill with WCW merchandise. Then, he and Triple H got into a helicopter and dropped a lighter on it, burning it all.
- His penis size....according to him... is 14.5 inches (NOTE: I looked it up, the world record is only 13.5 inches).

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
