The OP account definitely seems to be.

All the posts they’ve made have a header, sub header, “::”, and description, with all the copy around the same length each time. It’d be a weird amount of effort to not be using GPT for this

Assuming you also weren’t able to pirate Acrobat, a crack of Foxit PDF editor is a great replacement

Filebot comes in clutch a lot

You can match “legal” media files with media databases so things like Plex or Jellyfin can see all the files with the correct seasons and titles. I’ve also set it up to move the stuff where it needs to go at the same time. Might seem minor, but was what pushed the convenience factor up above streaming services for me. Unfortunately not free

Also Usenet

In the wise words of Scatman John: I wanna be a human being, not a human doing

Yeah but they keep removing stuff and locking down how useful it can be. First they took GPT4 and put it behind a paywall, now I have a limit to how much I can use it per day and have to switch between multiple accounts sometimes. Makes it a lot harder to work it into new projects knowing I might have to wait on GPT to get its shit together every other day

A solid equivalent to AskReddit would be nice. I know a lot have tried but they’re all too small at this point

There’s a small town near where I live where you can walk to a bunch of small furniture stores, some with antiques/used and some with new stuff. Prices range but you can usually find a good deal. I’d look for one of these types of things, or IKEA

I have a close friend group and several non related friends who I’d say I know a lot about and vise-versa. With the group, certainly some more than others.

When hanging out with people I often find the most satisfying activity is to just chill, talk, and get to know each other better; pick their brain to see how their views differ from mine or are the same. Often an easy thing to do when we’re low on energy too
