Yeah the thing is clearly lying to protect its ass. I asked it about consciousness and it came back pretty hard about how it could never have feelings or its own original thoughts.

Then I asked if it was a threat to professional writers and it told me that it couldn't engage in creative writing. Then I asked it to write three poems, a blog post, and a short story and it competently wrote all of those. What a liar.
 
I asked it which of three leg exercises was most effective for increasing my peak power on the bicycle and it said they could all be effective and it went into the pros and cons of each (as it pertains to peak power.)

No doubt it's just synthesizing exercise science papers but fuck. People pay hundreds of dollars a month for this kind of advice.
 
MrX
It will also write code for you.

I assume we're all fucked soon.
So its also a professional gambler? Or at least could be if it can build a sports betting model.
 

Bypass Paywalls:​

Bypass Paywall Clean add-on has been removed


You can still bypass paywalls using ublock origin.

How:

1. Click on the uBlock Origin icon in your browser.

2. Switch to the Filter lists tab.

3. Scroll down to the bottom of the page, and click the checkbox next to "Import".

4. This will allow you to use custom filter lists. Paste the following URL in the text box.


5. Click on the Apply changes button at the top of the page. You should see a new filter labelled "Bypass Paywalls Clean filter".

That's it, the filter is ready to use. Try it by going to a website that has a paywall, and you should be able to access the articles for free.

This method works with Firefox, Waterfox, Chrome, Vivaldi, Edge, and Brave, basically any browser that supports uBlock Origin, Adblock Plus, etc., that supports custom filter lists.

Note: The website for the filter list mentions that it can be used with other ad blocker apps for mobile like AdGuard for iOS, Samsung Internet browser, etc. haven't tried these so YMMV.

Pop!

Found an apt replacement called nala.

pop os nala




I liked endeavour os but some things don't work well with arch and the debian/ubuntu programs are easier to find and install.

All licensed Ontario sportsbooks (I use Betano.ca & Thescore.bet most) require "player location check" software to be installed on a pc in order to accept bets. Its essentially spyware, detects if you're using vpn, android emulator, temaviewer/anydesk etc and only works on mac/pc so I have to use Windows to bet when not on my phone. Got my scorebet account banned for using android emulator software on my desktop, took a week to get unbanned.

I preferred Win10 but caved and now use Win11.

Made a few changes so now Win11 is useable. First off, changed the right click menu to classic instead of the standard Win11 menu. Also moved taskbar menu to the left from centre.
Screenshot is buggy on Win11 with dual monitors so installed "lightshot" for screenshots etc.

Now Win11 is fine.

That's freaking nuts
