I used to write short stories. I asked ChatGPT to review them, and apparently my characters avoid painful self-knowledge with deadpan jokes. I now can't escape the suspicion that auto-correct-on-steroids understands my writing better than I do.

Yep. It understands nothing. It's a language calculator making a predictive answer based on reams of stolen data. But, it probably did give a right answer that any book club veteran could have given.

Fesser should rethink their own coping mechanisms used in relationships.

When men claim they’re "afraid" of feminism, what they fear is losing the unearned comfort they’ve mistaken for fairness.

17 year old. Went to the pub with my mates on the way home from school. Had 5 pints. Arrived home to see my driving instructor waiting. Forgot that I had a lesson. Not wanting to admit anything I hopped in the car. At the end of the lesson he congratulated me on my huge progress.

dawg, if you're going to try to masquerade as a fortinet client thingie, and target large companies for initial access, you really need to up your goop game. this took me literally like, 2 minutes to reverse engineer and identify what you're doing.

There has been a glitch in the matrix. smica83 shared a heavily obfuscated .vbs which was first identified in Morocco, initially named "nouveau_cv_pdf.vbs".

I wasn't going to statically deobfuscate the piece of shit, so I emulated it. During emulation it catches it pulling a stage 2 binary from: https://qmlab1(.)com/assets/img/katyusha2

I curl the payload, look inside, and you're never going to believe it.

It's the exact same fucking binary I just discussed. It is the Go malware labeled internally as "EasyAgent"

I've never accidentally stumbled upon the same malware campaign, with different delivery methods, back to back like this. This is very silly

When the kids were young, I'd do a slow mo run to the microwave, saying 'noooo' and stop it with one second to go, thus saving the entire planet from disintegration. They're all grown up now but when no-ones around, I still do it. You're welcome btw, me saving your lives.

When I leave a room, I don't switch off the light: I pull the door behind me and then reach back without looking and see if I can switch the light off before the door jams my fingers. I feel like Indiana Jones grabbing his fedora from under a closing trap door if I make it.

Uncle recently died. As a kid I thought he was quite a cool hippy type person. Just before his death he was saying that people in boat crossing the channel should be shot, plus other racist shite. The small inheritance I received gone straight to RNLI
Man, late 30s. Recently had to accept just how unfit I am following a threesome with two women that nearly killed me trying to keep up. Felt like Ross from friends when I more-or-less had to just stand there and watch them whilst thinking of a sandwich.

My name is Karen. For the love of God please pick a new name to disparage. Preferably a completely made up one so no one else is put through the crap we receive.

RT: @nolo14 Cansado de la historia del “voto útil” Y de quienes se dicen muy de izquierdas pero sostienen este discurso para enmascara sus intereses.

Útil para qué?

Seguimos con la ley mordaza vigente. Y de hacer algo con la vivienda… mejor ni hablamos.

Así que qué utilidad es esa?

The date Jesus died can be proven based on the solar eclipse described in both the bible and historical texts, but the church rejects that date because it doesn't align with Easter. I'm not saying religion is a scam but that's definitely not the actions of a credible org.

The "half your age plus seven" rule for maximum age disparity means that upon turning 46, one can no longer date anyone in their 20s, fair enough. But upon turning 47, one becomes allowed to date people in their 80s. This single realisation has made my hair fall out.
