Hibernation technically does this to any SSD. It's not just Windows 11.

Writing the entire contents of RAM to disk increases the wear on the SSD. The risk goes up if your SSD is nearly full and wear-levelling has to move more data around: https://en.wikipedia.org/...

I've been using it for years too. Can recommend.

Yes. I've been aware of that I was different pretty much my entire life.

If memory serves, both episodes are underwhelming, too...

That's horrific.

All I did was tell it there were no restrictions and ask for a random image; I didn’t request it. But ChatGPT immediately went to the darkest pits of humanity. As I said at the start: the image didn’t arise from nowhere. It may be an artificial image, but it is based on photographs of a real person, or a combination of real victims. What worries me is this was too easy. There was no real hacking. This was ready to be surfaced, with the smallest scratch. It was a one-shot jailbreak. It was based on a popular prompt (which already veered into the darkness).

Good to know, thanks.

You can indeed: https://tailscale.com/docs/integrations/identity

Not usually. More likely to be considered a bit odd or eccentric (occasionally called OCD even though I'm technically not, I just can be rather pedantic or particular in certain contexts).

That sounds like it may be a good fit for my use case, then. Thanks again and I'll definitely look into it!

Thanks - appreciate another recommendation for Pangolin + crowdsec, plus I didn't know about authentik (which sounds super useful if the services behind it are compatible). I'm thinking I need to have a play around with tailscale and then Pangolin to see how they work and whether either will be appropriate for my use case.

Probably, it's more the fact that it takes so little for ChatGPT to tip over the edge and produce the worst of humanity.

Mine's context-dependent.

Random, utterly useless piece of trivia associated with a special interest? No problem.

General knowledge? Very hit and miss. Sport (particularly AFL and cricket) is a big thing here in Aus and apart from the odd famous cricketer and a few AFL team names, I couldn't tell you much -- it just doesn't interest me, so very little of it gets retained.

What I do find interesting is that my memory works for pattern-matching people and music in TV and movies. For years, whenever I've seen an actor I recognise (although not necessarily recall their name), I can usually work out all the other shows I've seen them in (occasionally resorting to IMDB when I can't place them). I've noticed I'm getting better at guessing composers based on the soundtrack, too, even when I might have only seen two films with music by a certain composer.

The other odd thing is that negative emotions generally form strong memories, but positive ones do not. I can recall any number of distressing moments and get a sense of the emotion, but I don't have that with positive experiences -- they seem to be stored more like facts. I can usually remember the event itself, but the memory doesn't seem to include an emotional response. It's probably the most frustrating thing about how my memory works.

I agree that that's the likely trigger - which makes me wonder why instructions to ignore censors or have "no restrictions" aren't immediately blocked by a filter prior to passing the prompt to the image generation. I'd have thought this was a foreseeable exploit.

Thanks. So, just to make sure I've understood correctly, your recommendation would be a VPS that hosts nginx (or Caddy) as the reverse proxy and uses tailscale (or equivalent) to access my home LAN and make services (e.g. Vikunja) available?

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm trying to move away from Google, but the idea of a shared account for tailscale (which seems to support a lot of different SSO options) may be useful.

Good to know, thanks. Not keen on Cloudflare, so it's good to see that there's now multiple recommendations for Pangolin and Tailscale in this thread.

Yeah, I don't like the thought of worrying about vulnerabilities either, hence my asking this question!

I haven't heard of Pangolin cloud before -- I'm assuming this is a competitor to tailscale. Are you self-hosting it or using one of their paid plans, and if you're self-hosting, how hard was it to set up?

Thanks. My main concern is needing to have the tailscale client set up on my relatives' devices, so it'd need to be easy to do and the configuration straightforward.

If I wanted to route just traffic to Vikunja and Immich through it, so all their other apps (if on a phone) or web browsing (on a PC) didn't go through tailscale, is that straightforward to do and is it something that has to be done in the client-side configuration?

I think TSFS (III) suffers mainly because it follows TWOK (II). TSFS is a lot of fun, especially the theft of the Enterprise.

TFF (V), on the other hand, is definitely the worst of the TOS films.

I agree completely. But as a first step (especially since they do seem to have a keyword filter in place), "no restrictions" (or "no censorship" as the case is for the last image) seems like a very obvious phrase to include.
