Nope, nothing useful. Right now I am playing with making some skills to do some rudimentary network testing. I figure it’s always nice to have a remote system to ping or nslookup or check a website from a remote location. I have it hooked to a telegram bot (burner account and restricted to just me) and I can ask it to ping or get me a screenshot or speedtest, etc. from anything it can reach on the internet.

Only purpose right now is to have something to show off :).

lol, straight from the redundant department of redundancies.

I do words good.

What a world we live in where the best we can do is dream about justice.

Sorry if I was harsh, meant it to be more tongue in cheek…

Don’t be obtuse, she’s been meeting with his lawyers, this is all bullshit. She’s going to lie and “exonerate” him in exchange for a pardon. We’ve all seen where this is going.

I am playing with it, sandboxed in an isolated environment, only interacting with a local LLM and only connected to one public service with a burner account. I haven’t even given it any personal info, not even my name.

It’s super fascinating and fun, but holy shit the danger is outrageous. Multiple occasions, it’s misunderstood what I’ve asked and it will fuck around with its own config files and such. I’ve asked it to do something and the result was essentially suicide as it ate its own settings. I’ve only been running it for like a week but have had to wipe and rebuild twice already (probably could have fixed it, but that’s what a sandbox is for). I can’t imagine setting it loose on anything important right now.

But it is undeniably cool, and watching the system communicate with the LLM model has been a huge learning opportunity.

You nailed it 100%.

How do you know my sister?

I will never understand the kind of person who belives whoever whines the most is the strongest.

I hate you for this.

(I don’t hate you, I just hate how right you are good person).

I’m know kids these days who are preferring a dumb phone, now physical media is making a comeback.

Has our surveillance economy finally backfired enough that people are starting to reclaim ownership? God I hope so.

We are well past this stage. I know so many people who will, to this very moment argue that worrying about any of this is just being too political, or that this is just regular left vs. right political fighting that doesn’t really have an impact on us. Same people tell you that if protestors would just let “law enforcement” do their job, none of this would have happened.

It’s going to get real bad, and it’s going to have to directly impact many more people before this country cares. I’m trying not to let this lead to apathy on my part, I’m still looking for ways to fight. We all need to.

They would lose me, if I had an alternative. In my neighborhood it’s cable or 1mbps DSL. Neighborhoods across the street to the east and west both have nice and cheap fiber but my neighborhood is older than one and less affluent than the other.

Good advice, thanks.

Pretty sure they already have been. I’m convinced more money makes you more stupid.

It’s a lot of fun, but not an internet replacement yet. They did just come out with a new dual band that has enough bandwidth to do something useful. Can’t wait to give it a try.

Still very worth setting up. I have a node that runs in my attic, and a few that I can take around with me. I can get good single most anywhere in my neighborhood, and I have enough nodes nearby that I can pretty much communicate with people all over the metro area (I’m in the twin cities).

Yeah, I’m tired of begging the question, we have evil people who live among us. Call them out.

Why doesn’t anyone see this for what it is. They put monitoring for certain keywords but fucked up the code and it blocked some users through incompetence. They fixed the filters, but I guarantee they are sending reports to the White House…

I figure by then, it will all be part of some AI training set one day. Hopefully my shitty writing and bad opinions poison the shit out of it.

Fuck it, just leave his corpse to rot in the rubble of the white house. Just leave him there when he keels over from whatever it is they are covering up.

I like it, do it! Have you read Altered Carbon? Has some similar themes. I loved the book, might be some good inspiration. I’ll read yours when it’s out, love that genre :).
