ChatGPT, Motores GPT y otras inteligencias que causan que la gente piense estupideces

A tod@s: Trataré de ser corto y conciso, pero creo que será imposible: Basta ya de convertir a las AIs en demonios!    La prensa, que no tiene ni la más remota idea de lo que está hablando salen con titulares como "Así influencia ChatGPT nuestras decisiones "  y otras tonterías y sinsentidos que utilizan para enganchar a la gente a esos artículos de prensa amarilla. Sumado a esto, Italia está preocupada por la " privacidad de los usuarios de ChatGPT" , montando revuelto y arrastrando a su paso a otros países. Señor@s: ChatGPT es una herramienta  y como tal, puede usarse correcta o incorrectamente. Yo he manejado martillos, sierras y escoplos para hacer una bonita banqueta, sin embargo, otras personas pueden usar esas mismas herramientas para hacer daño a otros. Moraleja: No se puede permitir usar una herramienta a alguien que no es capaz de entender cómo funciona, y si la usas y te hace daño, pues es tu problema. A la prensa: Haced vuestro trabajo de informar de mo

Remembering the 2020 Lockdown

Read while listening to Ennja's Downfall:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dy6Sr8xKfBI Today, I'm remembering the Lockdown. I kept working, making sure my coworkers could do it from home. I was alone at work, thinking how I was going to protect my family from the pestilence that still threatens us. Due to stress, I was partially blind in my right eye (central serous retinopathy). But I kept working. I felt very useful. Many people were depending on me. I protected my family: Until today no one has gotten sick (Thank you Lord). The systems for which I am responsible continued to function without failures, with an uptime of 100% I provided my family with everything they needed. They did not miss anything. Yet, I lived in terror every day, thinking that in case the situation worsened, I would have to take drastic measures. My home computer was running Folding @ home 24 hours a day, in an attempt to help, at least with a grain of sand, the people who were trying to defeat the attac

pfSense - Upgrade from 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 to 2.5.0 fails miserably

Update: The problem were caused by a badly configured gateway that  2.4.5 discards but takes effect when migrating to 2.5.0 So, seems that our well known and beloved pfSense fails when updating from 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 to 2.5.0.  Launched the update from the console as I usually do : after  several minutes, my new 2.5.0 booted and... nothing, nada, zip,zilch,zero.. No network connection. WAN Interface: Up and running, DHCP acquired from the modem.  LAN Interface: Fixed IP, up and running Ping to a famous ping destination: "Host unreachable, stop bothering me with nonsense about n.n.n.n and so" nslookup: "I don't know anything about www.(whatever).com. Go ask your mom." Rolled back to my previous checkpoint (VM rules!):  everything fine... No 2.5.0 for me.  Netgate has a policy of removing old versions for security reasons., so g rab a copy of  2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 isos, memstick and so while you can. There's a lot of repos out there, but be sure to check the images

Pandemic

 This pandemic fcked my plans big time. Maybe the future will be brighter, maybe the future will be darker, but seeing the people  behaving like asshles gives me no hope at all. I said from the day 1 of the pandemic that this sht is airborne and moves also thru aerosols. Sadly no fckin-body seems to understand what the fck is an aerosol...  Also , the people seems to think that their noses are not connected to their lungs, so they go around  with their noses uncovered. For me, is the equivalent to go witch your dck hanging out of your pants. 'Rona infects everyone, and the stupid ones spread it. Checkmate 'Rona, you win.

The truth about eBay's HP iLO and SmartArray licenses

Image
You can find lots of listings on eBay selling  "Lifetime iLO" licenses:     Let me clarify this sht for you: Those keys are generated with a key generator.      The licenses are not coming from "decommissioned servers" or other bullsht that the sellers like to say.     Unless the seller sends you the physical document, originally made by HP of the license, the only you're purchasing is a STRING OF CHARACTERS generated by a guy in 5 seconds with a small program. Basically, you're paying 10 pounds to a person to click a button and send you an email (they not even use eBay messaging system since is recorded and they can be caught in this way) All the above applies also to keys for HP RAID controllers. Please, stop supporting thieves. Do your research. UPDATE: For some reason (maybe one of those eBay thieves felt offended) this post is flagged as "deceptive" by Google Safe Browsing.
