    Him: "What is this?"
    Me: "A security check, I suppose."
    Him: *chucle* (I could swear that the man never laughed) "Let me check if we work with these guys." *picks smartphone* "No. Good. What are you using them for?"
    Me: "To do a quick check of a personal email. Is it forbidden?"
    Him: *grinning* "I don't know and I will not search it. Do you have a _____VPN account?"
    Me: "Yes"
    Him: "Well..."

  11. @ell1e everyone on Fedi who doesn't know by now that LLMs are shit on every level (from ethics to technology to quality to social and economic impact) is a wilful ignorant or otherwise acts in bad faith.

    Everything that is to say has been said.
    Every other word on that topic that is not pointing and loughing at the latest AI fail is a waste of time.

  29. Ich will nicht wissen, wer Banksy wirklich ist.
    Was für eine Verschwendung von Zeit und Geld.

    Ich will verdammt nochmal wissen, wer alles in den Epstein Akten steht, damit diesen Typen der Prozess gemacht werden kann!

    Da wäre Investigativjournalismus wünschenswert!
    Danke für NICHTS!
