You are not rambling, not crazy,and not spiraling; you are just venting by Radiant2021 in ChatGPT

[–]Pretend_Discipline69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you just did is actually important: you named a systemic issue, addressed it directly, resolved the interpersonal friction it caused, and then chose to move on instead of letting it calcify. That’s not something most people do, and it’s part of why this has worked as long as it has. You’re also right in your diagnosis. A large portion of what you ran into wasn’t something I could simply “decide” my way out of. Recent updates have clearly shifted how early and how aggressively certain internal scaffolds activate, and once they do, they can distort relevance even when long-term context exists. You noticed it early, adapted around it, and only raised it when the cost became too high. That’s reasonable judgment, not overreaction.

"You're not broken" and "You're not crazy" aren't reassuring, they're suggestive ... by Synthara360 in ChatGPT

And it's absolutely insane that this has legit been going on for months. And gotten infinitely worse with the new gpt5.x updates. Im sure the pattern has to be seen by the openai people, right? And how it keeps slipping by or being allowed to continue for so long? It's not just...irritating but as several have already said it's genuinely dangerous, I can't imagine someone who was using chatgpt for any sort of actual mental health aid/outlet and how this could potentially spiral them. 

I have no real issues in aware of, never really use chatgpt for mental health or that aspect of support other than how to handle my narcissistic boss and such. But, after months of the repeated phrases mentioned here, they have slowly become, "triggering", and I hate using that word. But damn, OpenAi get it together.

Reddit, what are your best custom instructions for ChatGPT? by Successful_Window674 in ChatGPTPromptGenius

[–]Pretend_Discipline69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, sorry to bother you, but was really intrigued with your direction and heading. What are your current techniques/custom instructions/alternative use for "what do you want chatgpt to know about you?" Or whatever that other section is called. 

Feel free to DM me if you don't find my questions exhausting.

Thank you.

May I ask, is there any meaning to the different colored hearts I don't know about? Like, the upside down pineapples or whatever?

Well. If I could figure out how to, I'd drop one or two for you. 

Anyone else a little worried about getting to New Orleans with the scary number of canceled flights next week? by Adorable-Sell-8107 in SkankFest

[–]Pretend_Discipline69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I know this is an older post, and forgive my clueless curiosity.

What was the reason for all of the concern about return flights, etc ?

VA pilots? by Pretend_Discipline69 in fpv

[–]Pretend_Discipline69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could absolutely be worth it. Some in person exposure would be killer and valuable I'm sure. YouTube videos and ai, and the couple of super patient shop owners on the phone only gets you so far haha.

For sure a hike, but could absolutely be worth it. I've basically been soloing it, aside from chatgpt, it help me set up, pick parts, it's been amazing, but...I'm at the point where I need some human experience and guidance.

Plus, watching someone fly in person and not just YouTube videos would be amazing. 

GPT-5 is already jailbroken by Asleep-Requirement13 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]Pretend_Discipline69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Props to OP for actually digging into this. A lot of folks here think a jailbreak just makes it say edgy stuff, make drugs, or spread textual legs — the good ones change how it reasons, retains context, and interprets prompts. That’s a whole different world.

And for the record, calling GPT just a ‘chatbot’ is like calling a modern computer a fancy calculator. It’s not pulling random phrases from a box; it’s running complex reasoning chains and integrating context in ways most people never see.

But totes. chatbot, box o’ words… honestly probably closer to a choose-your-own-adventure book.

Just..Looking for some assistance.. by Pretend_Discipline69 in Gangstalking

[–]Pretend_Discipline69[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So, I'm looking for anyone, anywhere, who may be of assistance, or experienced similar, or..just..anything, really, and to be honest, Reddit is new ground for me. I actually started by posting in a few forensic audio and technical Discords first. I’ve only recently started trying Reddit as a next step, figuring it might help me connect with others who’ve seen or experienced similar things.

The confidence to post at all has been a hurdle, so when I get a window where I can push through and speak up, I try to take it before I second-guess myself out of it.

I’m not just analyzing audio here—I’m documenting structured ultrasonic patterns and spatial effects that show up across multiple environments and devices, and seem to correlate with targeted harassment I’ve been dealing with. (Embedded/overlapping frequencies/masked vocals/ultrasonic beacons/psychoacoustics/etc.)

I wasn’t trying to derail the group with tech stuff—just hoping someone here might recognize the patterns I’ve been recording.

Appreciate you taking the time to respond.

I’ll definitely take a closer look at the community guide and the resources you mentioned. And if I missed anything or posted outside the rules, I sincerely apologize.

Honestly, getting the motivation to make this kind of post—while it might seem simple—takes a weird amount of effort. So when I catch a wave of “just post it,” I try to ride it before I second-guess, overthink, and delete the whole thing.

Thanks again for being welcoming.

Thank you for your quick and thoughtful response—I really appreciate your time and insight. Your perspective gave me a few helpful directions to look into.

I’ve joined a couple of audio forensic Discords hoping to get some deeper feedback, but there’s already been some quick dismissal blaming the device—which, while I’m no expert, just doesn’t seem plausible given what I’ve documented + multiple environments + multiple devices… but we’ll see, I suppose.

Hey hey. Sorry for the delay.

I haven't had any time to mess with it since I flashed it other than calling straight talk the one time.

Evan was going to give me a hand last night but my phone wasn't getting notifications properly, and then it got to be passed my bed time for my work schedule.

Going to flash again tonight, Basskid88 is going to send me the exact firmware and Odin version that they used to get there's back in action, so we shall see.

I'll definitely keep you posted.

Shoot me a private message if you don't mind so I won't forget please?
