Latest edit (October 27th, 2020): the wish of The Grand Prophet of the Cult of Lauda has been fulfilled. The gang has been moved to the Defunct section and the OP was updated accordingly.
Edit 2: the gang was disbanded and moved to the Defunct section, as per Grand Prophet's request. For more information about how to cherish the memory of Lauda please contact nullius, The Grand Prophet of the Cult of Lauda, or visit the appropriate Laudatory Lore, in memoriam topic. The Grand Prophet will guide all the gang members feeling lost after their leader retired.
Thank you, Gazeta!
By the power vested in me as Grand Prophet, in accord with the final decree of the Divine Catbat—
After this post, "Lauda" will cease to exist.

Am I not known for tech posts? This was the best tech post that I have made in awhile! But it was subtle—a sort of sly ninja tech post inserted into the topic. Take a closer look. My latest homage to Lauda is made by kitty AI:

I recommend reading the paper. There are also three explanatory Youtube video links, plus two Github repositories, referenced by the website that totally doxes my photo ID.
Thanks to Last of the V8s for his comment that inspired me. (The flood of nonexistent catpics was not caused by somebody else’s complaint about the one and only non-catbat cat photo that I had previously posted to that thread; some people should get over themselves.)
I don’t want to ruin the magic by explaining it on that thread. The nonexistent-cat photo meme is intended to be a work of forum art; and thereby, the Catbat’s arcana shall remain a mystery to all who do not read with care. 😼
I have also been accused of being part of "Lauda's Gang" on at least a couple of occasions; a good thing that comes from this dissolution is now idiot scammers who get busted can't readily blame being busted on Lauda. I'm sure that they will continue the tradition anyway because they are, after all, pretty dumb, and that's why they are scammers.
It is true, they are not exactly what one could call “trusted sources”—unless you suggest extending Lauda gang membership to both Quickseller and PrimeNumber7.

Given the irrefutable evidence of laudas scamming in the other thread you posted in lauda should have a flag.
Nutildah should probably have one too

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, now.
