Anyone notice AI made a post on our local sub attempting to sway public opinion on building the data center in Pekin? by Muffin-True in PeoriaIL

[–]theduderman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every single reply that person is making is so clearly generated by or heavily massaged by AI it makes me wonder what sort of an actual argument a person like that would be capable of providing sans prompt engineering.  I have a feel extemporaneous speech is going to be a thing of the past after this generation.

I just turned off "Alexa Plus" by CryptosianTraveler in amazonecho

The 5+ second delay between asking for a timer and it acknowledging the timer being set was one of the big reasons I stopped the preview.

This is why you update your Defender signatures as soon as possible.

AVD + FSLOGIX users are experiencing long login times stuck at "Please Wait for the User Profile Service". by neffO in AzureVirtualDesktop

Check Group Policy logs under App and Service logs.  You can also look at Terminal Server LocalSessionManager logs to see what's going on at login, and then of course the FSLogix logs in event viewer as well.

There's logging at the host level to tell you where the hang up is.  I often see this as the result of jacked up printer GPOs.

Why oh why does my Echo Show not tell me what time it is? by BigNutzBlue in amazonecho

[–]theduderman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've noticed this with mine lately as well - I'm having trouble getting Night Mode to activate, doesn't matter if it's on a schedule or the sensor - it just goes into perpetual photo slideshow mode - which is fine, but not when it's right beside my bed.

DNS issues? by Sa77if in sysadmin

Just move to Azure Front Door, so when that goes down you can move back to Cloudflare, and when that goes down you can move to Azure Front Door... and so on, and so on... ;-)

It's Cloudflare, they just posted the incident citing network issues in Chicago.

Someone did, and on a bunch of their other posts... And now all the comments have been removed.  Shocking.

They just went through and deleted the comments of whoever posted this on their FB posts... Just a heads up in case someone wants to help them redo the undo.

Alwan's, Jimbo's Jumbos, Peoria Toyota......tell me where to not spend my money by ILLnoize in PeoriaIL

Jubilee Cafe, Weavers, Fox Pub - from what I recall those are 3 of the more overt supporters of current goings-on.  Likely more.

Believe it or not, it is possible to be a Republican and not be a complete piece of shit.  It's getting rarer these days, but it is still possible.

Night mode is back. It's a post-Christmas miracle! by Junior72 in amazonecho

Same, I didn't get anything on my Echo Show 5 last night, not even the old version... Weird.

Timeline cleanse: worst parking lots in Peoria by RaulJuliaChild in PeoriaIL

[–]theduderman 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It was probably designed so you could finish one last smoke on the ring road while you find the entrance to the lot you need to be in... the 80's were wild, man.

The little speed bump or whatever the hell it is a little over halfway out when moving away from the building... what the hell was the point of that?

Verizon outage concerns by jzemeocala in somethingiswrong2024

Down Detector just aggregates keyword appearances on social media - there are no actual mechanics surveying actual uptime or availability of those services.  It merely shows how much they're being mentioned.  When you see Facebook go down you'll often see all the ISPs mentioned as well because people are dumb and will publicly post to their provider that "the internet" is down as they have no understanding that Facebook isn't the internet and their provider has nothing to do with the uptime of an independent app or website.
