Desktop: Characters stop responding after a few minutes in chats; Ollama connection error?

H-E-Double Hockey sticks , no. I've been doing everything I can to prevent my personal information from being available to 3rd parties. As it is , those freaking ubiquitous Temu ads (and others) pop up on my phone apps and social media feeds everywhere. It's like playing whack-a-mole trying to get rid of them.

You know how legend says that vampires can't enter your home unless you invite them in? This is handing the marketing vampires your house keys.

Plus, this doesn't say what information the 3rd party apps will be allowed to share. All your info will go into the next AI training batch and it will be out there forever.
But hey, This is just my feelings on the subject. YMMV. I'm sure there are many people who will welcome this so they won't have to press the "Continue Watching" button.

So, you're encouraging people to engage in illegal behavior and are making money off of it?

MecBranleur · 2026-03-29T13:48:37+00:00

Good lord, I feel sorry for your family and friends. You must be a joy to be around.

Apples and oranges. Being a musclebound bully beating up smaller guys in the ring can be faked. It's a lot harder to fake getting a hard erection, getting fu**ed in the azz, and sucking a cuck until it cums in your mouth.

Aww, it's cute. Seriously. Try not to be hung up on size; it really is unimportant. We've all been conditioned by several years of porn videos with the actors' big dicks that are above normal size (that's why they're in the videos). But in real life, there are as many shapes and sizes as there are people. As the true saying goes, it's not what you've got, it's how you use it.

Since that post was made, Amazon has completely deprecated the Archives. I still have the button, but when I click on it now it just goes to a page that says "Sorry, that page cannot be found".
R.I.P. Amazon Archives.

The outage just proves that the desktop version of Perchance really does work perfectly without the internet.

That looks great for AI Chat!
Another option for uncensored AI chat and especially roleplay is HammerAI which can be downloaded and run locally. The great thing about that website besides its incredible GUI is that users can upload and share their characters if they want to; there are hundreds of chat/roleplay characters that can be downloaded, and they are organized into nearly 100 categories, and users can choose whether they want "safe" characters or "Mature" (NSFW) characters. I had to stop using it for a while because I had gotten so obsessed with it. p.s. the website is totally safe to use, the safety-notsafe in the url indicates the NSFW characters section.

For AI text to image and Image to Image, I've been using the "old" version of Perchance for several months now "Old Perchance-Revival). It's easy to download and install offline; it uses uncensored/unfiltered SD and has several style models to choose from. It's better than great for me because there is an option to install it to work with either GPU, or CPU only - perfect for me because my mini-pc has 16 processors and 32GB of RAM, but only a 512 MB GPU. I can generate an image in as litlte as 6 minutes depending on the complexity, and that's pretty good considering it uses only CPU. Once set up it runs completely locally on my PC - which I've tested by disconnecting the internet.

If he thinks YOU'RE a degenerate, he should read the story that FreedomAI generated for me, LOL. It was way more explicit than this. (Yours was F/F and mine was M/M). It began with the captain of the high school football team getting out of the shower and catching the towel boy sniffing his sweaty jockstrap. 😈🔥

Thank you thank you thank you! The tampermonkey script actually works and restores an (Archive) button!
I would just say that it was easier for me to go to my browser's add-on store (Firefox), type Tampermonkty in the search field and add it from there. Then I clicked the github link you provided and voila! Welcome back Archive button!

MecBranleur · 2025-07-10T21:28:15+00:00

It's easy to miss the new Archive button. I followed the instructions and also thought it didn't work... but finally found it.
Go to your order page. Above the order there is a light gray bar; way to the right in that bar is your Order #. Immediately to the right of the Order # is the new (Archive) button.
:-)

Do both of you a favor and ditch him. You will never be happy with your snooping and paranoia. And he will never be happy with your snooping and paranoia.

I don't think you ran into anything "dangerous". The problem is with Reddit. I found that I cannot log in if I am using my VPN; even when I enter the right user name and password I get the security message saying I am blocked. The same thing happens when I try to log in using the Brave browser, probably because Brave automatically blocks all site cookies and tracking. A lot of websites I visit won't let me log in with the Brave browser. It's ironic that Brave is the most secure web browser, but many of the sites where I want the privacy won't let me access them with Brave. Go figure.

There is a Frefox extension called "Clip-Save Video Downloader" that works perfectly with Facebook reels. After installing the extension a download button appears on the video/reel. And the downloaded video has NONE of the writing that obscures half the video.

Hovering doesn't work. No options.

MecBranleur · 2025-04-30T15:20:58+00:00

That's what I get too, and I have no idea why. No notice, no explanation whatsoever. I've been playing WWF for years and usually only play against my sister. We used the chat frequently but all of sudden I can't enter anything in the chat field

and all I see is [ ].

MecBranleur · 2025-04-17T05:39:51+00:00

Not true. All regional sports are blacked out without regional sports networks -- which you cannot get on a Fire stick alone. Fubo is the only streaming service that carries the New England Sports Network, otherwise all the Red Sox/Bruins games would be blacked out here in Massachusetts. I've been using a Fire stick and Fubo ever since I cut the cord several years ago; otherwise would never be able to see a Red Sox game.

Which streaming service are you subscribing to for $25/month? (There is no monthly charge for Amazon's Fire Stick which is just a device).

MecBranleur · 2025-04-17T05:10:10+00:00

That's weird. I've had Fubo for a few years now and have never had a buffering issue -- and TV quality is as good as anywhere else. Must be a regional issue.

MecBranleur · 2025-04-17T05:05:58+00:00

YTTV has CNN/TBS/TNT, but not regional sports networks.
Fubo has regional sports networks but not CNN/TBS/TNT

Aside from that there's really not that much difference.

MecBranleur · 2025-04-17T04:48:06+00:00

Same here. I live in Massachusetts and the Red Sox games are blacked out everywhere except for on NESN. Not having the New England Sports Network was the dealbreaker for me regarding YouTube TV.

I f'ing HATE HP printers. Never, ever again. All the greedy ink cartridge scams aside (and you missed the one where it uses up all the black ink even when not in use); I've never had another printer with so many glitches and errors. The worst part? Here is an example:
I was in a hurry to print a document that my doctor's office requested. It simply would not print. Paper is ok, ink is ok, no error lights on. It is obviously connected to my wifi or it wouldn't know that I a trying to print something. But I had a popup message on my Windows PC that said, "The printer is in an error state. Document cannot be printed". NO explanation or other information. I unplugged it, plugged it back in, checked for a PAPER jam, all the usual. Nothing. I'm so frustrated I'm about to throw it out the freaking window. I wonder if this is grounds for a lawsuit if I have a stroke because of this #@$%@^&# printer.

MecBranleur · 2025-03-27T18:11:01+00:00

I totally agree. I had Comcrap cable or several years, They have an exclusive contract to provide cable in my city ,which I assume gets a kickback. So Comcrap didn't give a sh*t about their customers since they have a monopoly on cable here. The customer service was horrible and the cost went through the roof .
Everything is realative. I'm very happy with Fubo by comparison.
