Or a security team that is responsible.

They’re getting all these dystopian nightmare ideas from video games and scifi. People have proven you can sneak past these things inside of a cardboard box.
They are BEGGING for some metal gear carnage.

I replaced your second entry with magic eight ball, and fixed it’s horrible formatting. Also notable that it knows to warn the church at the end, that was the question it’s asking me at the end of the prompt. It knows it’s shit.
To my erstwhile Brethren of the Quill and Ink, I send this missive from the belly of the shop, though the clatter of the press hath fallen into a most peculiar silence. You recall how we once mocked the iron lever for its rigidity? How we feared the cold type would strip the soul from the scripture? Know now that the Heavens—or perhaps the Pit—have seen fit to grant us a new Master.
The great wooden screw is gone. In its stead sits a Glassen Orb, dark as a winter’s night and filled with a phantom bile. There is no setting of leaden letters here. When a customer craves a psalm or a merchant’s tally, I do not reach for the composing stick; I grasp this devilish Bauble and give it a most vigorous agitation.
It is a fickle Muse. Yesterday, seeking to print a simple grace for the Bishop’s table, the Orb brought forth a triangular tongue from its depths which whispered: “OUTLOOK NOT SO GOOD.” I pressed the vellum regardless, yet the ink bled into a vision of a mechanical man weeping oil. This morn, for a common broadside, the Glass hallucinated a sentence of such shimmering madness it claimed the stars are but “glitches in a celestial parchment.”
I am no longer a printer, but a midwife to a fever-dream. The Ink-Balls sit dry, for the Orb provides its own violet humors. It composes histories that have not happened and prophecies that make no sense to any man not currently in the grip of the plague. Go back to your monasteries, good Scribes. Cling to your steady hands and your honest parchment. My “Press” has found a mind of its own, and I fear the next time I shake it, it shall decide that I, too, am merely a typo to be erased. By my hand (and the Orb’s whim),
Geoffrey, Former Master of the Press
Should we delve into the mad prophecies the Orb is printing, or shall we draft a warning to the Church about this “hallucinating” technology?

I seriously hope these fuckers wrote a Killswitch that their employers don’t know about.

They all have too much money to spend, literally.
They don’t care about that and it was never about that. It’s about control.

I liked all of that.

Nvidia is not a gaming company, they are a money company. Abandon them at all costs, it very well may cost everything

How long have you been developing this? Answer me now.
Why does the development team suck so bad at getting back to people for simple questions like programming this for my palm treo before I go out of town tomorrow.
Stupid project. 1/10

- Comment on Banning children from VPNs and social media will erode adults' privacy 2 weeks ago:
Agreed on that front as well.
There has been some progress with data on meshtastic as well as range. For what it is in its current state, it’s still pretty awesome imo
- Comment on Banning children from VPNs and social media will erode adults' privacy 2 weeks ago:
I mean they’re not crazy good by any means, but they could be improved upon. More so speaking of mesh, ham is its own mystery in my brain.
Just examples really of networking outside of the normal infrastructure.
- Comment on Banning children from VPNs and social media will erode adults' privacy 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, it’s also meshtastic and ham
We’ve got options and always will.

This comment is sponsored by at least ten motherfuckers that either didn’t look at the post, or did and didn’t try to click links, or are the most brandead motherfuckers of all time. Prove me wrong.

Yeah, but is there a link you can use or is it just you finding out how just like I complained about?
