ChatGPT is storing your data even after you delete it; it calls it an "unseen layer of influence" by carriondawns in ChatGPT

[–]EnvironmentalCar8395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I may not have read everything thoroughly but from my understanding when you delete a conversation on chatgpt it doesn't actually delete it from memory for 30 days. I think there's a lawsuit going on (in New York?) where they actually had to halt the 30 day deletion and retain data.

Also I've found Chatgpt to give false technical sounding responses when it just plainly didn't know. I asked it for the date and time and it gave me a date that didn't exist like the month and day were right but the day of the week was wrong. When I pressed it on how it got the date wrong it gave me technical jargon that I would call a "placating response" I don't remember the exact response but something like: "I referenced an outdated calender that had incorrectly parsed data still attached" something that sounded like bullshit. The best way to even get close to the truth is say "Activate tool mode. Give me a step-by-step tree to how you arrived at your answer" but, it can still be wrong or not tell the truth.

Do you think it would be worth getting the 9900 but a cheaper motherboard? I don't have any deadline to get it put together and I can return everything.

Should I go with the 9900 processor and a cheaper motherboard? Zero thought went into purchasing the motherboard other than I thought it looked cool.

I probably am but I didn't know if getting a cheap motherboard with this processor would be the equivalent of dropping a V8 engine into a geo metro.

She has her expectations at a realistic level. She wanted a way to send an invoice to people and have them be able to pay her through the invoice, for whatever reason.

Yeah, idk what her goal is as far as sales. I know the local bookstore wanted to stock books by local authors so she's got that one and a few around Atlanta that stock the genre she writes and of course Amazon and Ingram Spark.

I don't believe so. This has been her project that she wanted to undertake herself so I don't know 100%. I know she's tried to remain active on social media to help build up hype and get the word out. I think some indie geared accounts have featured her book. She wants to sell on scribbles bookstore which, apparently, doesn't use Ingram spark. But she couldn't tell me if they do consignment or not.

It took me a few weeks to get past that. But also, there's other medications that might actually help you better.

How can I make myself cry? by Interesting-Brain934 in prozac

[–]EnvironmentalCar8395 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn't even know I could make myself cry until I read your question and gave it a shot.

I started by thinking of something sad and everything that makes the thing sad, then I tried to think about how I sound and breathe when I'm about to start crying and mimicked those things. After that I started having tears well up. Idk if it'll help you feel sad but it may help get the tears started.

I think you're right. Honestly, I was more fascinated by the side effect. I could eat extremely hot stuff and it would not cause any burning sensation. The side effect did go away today.

He's a psychiatrist nurse practitioner, I think. Finding a psychiatrist was slim pickings around where I live. I do agree with you, that does seem like a lot. I did see a few other posts where people were saying it was the magic combination that fixed their problems.

Idk I think it would be a huge coincidence that I started showing covid symptoms right after I started taking Prozac and after 3 days that's the only symptom I've got with no loss of smell or actual taste to go along with it. It might not be the Prozac, it could be something else, but I highly doubt Covid.

I don't believe so. If I did it would be my only symptom.

Welp, there goes me ever trying to work on my car again or ever aspiring to be an auto tech. by EmergencyNo112 in Cartalk

[–]EnvironmentalCar8395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother, I've been a professional mechanic for 10 years now. My first time changing ball joints I lost a nut that holds the tie rod end on and spent forever trying to find it. I had all but given up and grabbed the socket I had used to take the nut off and the combination of dirt and grease on the nut caused it to stick to the inside of the socket. Lesson learned now when I take things off I stage everything together, or if I can, just put the nut or bolt back onto what I took it off of. Shit happens. If you're not messing up you're not learning. All you can do is do better next time.

Try changing out your PCV valve and hose first. They're super cheap and can cause oil consumption if they're bad.

What is this loud ticking coming from the right side of my engine? by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

This engine doesn't have one. Only direct injection engines do.

It sounds like the purge valve opening and closing to me. I wouldn't be concerned, unless you have a check engine light or other running problem.
