  • This is purely anecdotal, but I have been running into a lot of DNS issues over the past couple months where I work. 3 of the computers and even one of the laptops for remote work were having DNS issues that needed to be fixed. One even needed Windows reinstalled after fixing the DNS issue (Which was probably unrelated, but worth mentioning)

    I’m honestly starting to think that the internet in general might be imploding. Not sure why, but replacing so many developers and programmers with AI might be responsible. Who knows, but it’s definitely very strange.






  • I played it too and I 100% agree. However, I feel like it’s always a good thing to keep in mind that the best time to play an online shooter is when it first comes out. That way you get to at least have fun before all the casual people move on to other games and the sweaty people are the only ones left. My friends convinced me to try Fortnite just a couple years ago and all that happened was I got stomped every match and was like “this is fun for you guys?” I’ve been playing Overwatch since release and it’s basically impossible to get a match I’d consider “fun,” so to speak. I just wanted to get in on the fun for Battlefield before it turned into all sweats. Now I’d prefer to just avoid it all together.







  • I was hanging out on some conservative forums when the news came out and almost universally people were pissed saying it’s an overreaction to what they call the “overreach during COVID.” And I’m sitting there reading these comments and thinking to myself that these people are so anti Democrat and anti “woke” that they seemingly have selectively forgotten that this is exactly what people were warning them about. They were legitimately surprised that this has happened and were in denial that this administration would do something like this.

    These are the people that we are up against. They are ignorant and so angry at Democrats that they will literally forget that they were warned about this exact scenario. And the reason I bring this up is because they are ignorant, but they are not universally stupid and can actually think for themselves when given the chance. And we should use opportunities like this to educate them instead of saying “haha you get what you voted for.”


  • Well, you should have a problem with it but not for the reasons you think. Any invasion of privacy is an issue when the people in control get to decide what is a reportable offense without explicitly telling you. I get it, you definitely shouldn’t be admitting anything illegal or asking illegal advice from a chat bot. You shouldn’t be doing anything that is illegal in the first place.That’s basically the same as googling how to make a bomb and if you’re that dumb you’ll get what’s coming to you. The issue arrives when you look at the bigger picture. If they have the ability to report anything they want to the police, what’s stopping them from releasing anything they want to anyone they want at any time? And when it comes to those receiving the data that’s been reported, what proof do you have that these entities have yours or anyone else’s interests or safety in mind? What if they decide to change the rules on what they should report, they don’t tell you, and then retroactively flag a bunch of your conversions with said LLM.

    It’s the same kinda situation that we face with these AI cameras that track us and our vehicles literally everywhere we go. There have already been multiple cases where people in law enforcement were using these tools to stalk people like ex girlfriends. All this is putting a lot of trust into people that none of us even know and expect them to have the best of intentions. What would stop them from reporting that you asked ChatGPT about the current situation in Gaza?
