April got herself incarcerated before I had a chance to give a thumbs-up to golddog's bullish finale. 'Tis a pity.

Thanks, Tom. I have to admit, when I saw a thread titled as this is, started by you, I was thinking, "oh no, hope it's not something serious for Tom."

Glad to see it isn't.


I figured a mod would fix it soon enough. I guess those lucky guys keep bankers' hours.

I don't know what they think we are paying them for.


when it comes to bad news
always wondered if chico's bail bonds was somehow connected to chico and the man
might sound wonky but jack albertson and walter matthau could be brothers


Hi guys

I'm here for the non-ChatGPT thread title.


Why is Zeno tolerated at all


Is he? I ignore everything he posts.

I assume it’s just inertia combined with the inability to quickly and easily ban a green.


Got a notice from AT&T recently about a data breach, where some info was exposed. WTF? I don't have accounts with AT&T.

Turns out, it was something Mom had, and I attached my email after she died. So nothing important exposed, just an already-publicly-exposed email address.

Have noticed a jump in spam lately. I can't believe anybody falls for these things. First, the domain coming from "netflix" (or whatever) is some .shop; the content is fractured English with a 1980s-era look in terms of colors and font.

Hope nobody really gets victimized, but man, these guys aren't even trying.

There are definitely people falling for it. Same as those grandparents tricks over the phone.

(FWIW, the latter one is going to be a huge problem soon, AI is getting pretty close to needing only 15-30 seconds of voice recordings to emulate a voice)

The world is one good deep fake away from destruction.

But Netflix for only $2/month! How can you not click!

I think I got the spam you are talking about. :-)

When I get some on my work e-mail, I forward it to my security group (me and my boss and his boss) and get a good laugh about how bad it is, and question who would fall for it.

"crypto@amazonkcdsxk.co.in" is probably not Amazon support.


The latest batch I've received from lol Xfinity are pretty damn good fakes.

I assume it's a paradox of some sort.


Our accounting department, almost exclusively, almost falls for the email from our president looking to have them buy him gift cards. Like they respond and talk with him to the point he asks for the gift cards.
