Well this is a prime example of the deep flaws inherent with democracy. I propose that you choose me as Exilian's first benevolent tyrant so I can save you silly geese from making such awful decisions in the future. Bask in my golden aura dear subjects.BoooYeah, the logic being that nobody was using it very much and it made the forum look more rather than less deserted most of the time. If we get back to having a good amount more activity and people are using things like this general chat thread so much that we need to reinstate it to help keep the flow, then of course we'll look into it. We're... a little way off that, right now.
Down with this sort of thing!
Heating and electricity prices are supposed to be crazy in the UK. But its confusing because old and corporate social media tend towards catastrophizing or channeling Dr. Pangloss.Kind of, government (eventually) imposed a price cap on energy but it only applies to households, so businesses are generally paying obscene rates now. Petrol and diesel prices finally came down recently, still a lot higher than pre-pandemic but significantly less than they were at their height.
You.com, a search engine, now includes an AI answering service. It's amazingly bad. Unlike ChatGPT, You's AI attempts to read very directly from the internet and cite its web sources. Unfortunately it also totally lacks logical consistency, like most LLM AIs. A lot of its bullarmadillo is vaguely plausible sounding... here are some sample queries, feel free to add your own excitements.
