I've had trains cancelled due to copper theft from rail infrastructure in suburban Australia, which has a very high standard of living.


For some residents sure, clearly not for all in the area


Be wary - I do not have an iPhone, and I once connected my AirPods to my wifes MacBook. They now chirp at me loudly every time I pick them up, automatically try to connect to her phone etc, and I cannot unregister them from her account. I want to add them to Find My - I cannot add them to Find My from my MacBook, I 'need' an iPhone or iPad to do that...


I had the same problem but for me resetting them fixed that quickly. Then I was able to add them on my Macbook so they don't do that anymore when connecting to other peoples apple devices.


My colleagues were joking about smoking guns yesterday after noticing that Claude was obsessed with it.


I like how your co-workers enjoy the language. I had a similar group of colleagues once who did similar pre LLM but with words in popular culture, very playful.

In the future these tells will be more identifiable. We will be easier to point back at text and code written in 2026 and more confidently say "this was written by an LLM". It takes time for patterns to form and takes time for it to be noticeable. "Smoking gun was so early 2026 claude".I find thinking of the future looking at now to be refreshing perspective on our usage.


Hey ericlewis - this is cool! Can I ask how you figured it out?! Doing this for my PO-33 was on my bucket list. I thought I might have to resort to voltage glitching to get a firmware dump, which is currently beyond my skills.


Unfortunately I think only a few of the PO's support this transfer method, and I don't think the 33 is one of them. They were never meant to be updated at all, as I understand it.


much simpler, just pull apart the MT VST :P

I am working on PO-33, doing EMFI.


Me too, have been trying to crack this for so long!


I was able to get part way some years ago by demodulating the bitstream with gnuradio and then making small changes (like replacing one note with the next higher one) and noting the differences. So that is one possible, but probably too inefficient way.

I never got close to finishing or publishing anything. Awesome to see this released and I'll have to play with it!


The non-LLM version of this happened to me in a high school English class, back in the 2010's. I was accused of turning in a downloaded story from the internet, but in reality, I had pushed past the incredible barrier I usually felt at the start of a task, got into the flow, and started enjoying it.

I'm not sure if it had any lasting effects. Maybe a burning hatred of Grammarly ads.


At my workplace, a colleague in another team used an AI tool to voice/video clone my companies CEO, CRO and CTO (I assume with their permission) and created a mandatory 30 minute training video that they expected us to watch with these monotone fake company leaders doing the presentation. It wasn't even a joke.


haha wow - it also just straight up copied the .gif files byte for byte - same SHA sum


eh? what launch? been using it for years now, it's brilliant


is this chatgpt? your comments read like chatgpt output


I do ask chatgpt to improve my messages, but the content is mine.


Honestly, that comment really does not seem very chatGPT-like.


it screams it to me - wording such as "your concerns are valid", "yes, you're absolutely right..." and "I realize now how important...", and then usage of em-dash


As mentioned in another comment, I used ChatGPT to improve grammar and rewrite a bit my messages. I stopped using it since.


It's okay to be authentically you


Last time I was trying to be authentically me my response triggered a whole sub-thread about me using the word "subvention" and how funny Europeans sounds to Americans.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯


I have this too, many words I get from French and turn into English do exist in reality (they sound natural to me) and bam! there you have a snob who wants to show off :)


What is this obsession with the em-dash? For those who used LaTeX it is second nature, and a -- gets changed to an em-dash by a lot of editors or programs such as AutoHotkey


I may have to stop using Em-dashes.
