Trotz drastischer Folgen fürs Klima setzt Wirtschaftsministerin Reiche auf den Ausbau fossiler Gasinfrastruktur. Wo? Das will die Bundesregierung verschweigen. Mit der interaktiven Karte schaffen wir gemeinsam Transparenz. fragdenstaat.de/gemeinsam-ge...

Tumblr user thereisselfpreservation "I'm seeing warnings about scammers trying to commission artists but the "reference sheet" for their character they want commissioned isn't an image but a .vbs file ("visual basic script"), and will run a script when you open it, probably to yoink your account(s), but I haven't seen this from anyone who's actually clicked it yet. Just be careful and never open a file like that, 'cause people suck." Reply from the same user: "For reference (heh)" Screenshots of messages. Sender: "Okay, I've sent it now." There's a file attachment called "Shork_YCH_MyReference_v1.vbs". The vbs extension is circled. Sender: "If everything is in order, I can send the overpayment." Sender, in reply to the file attachment (again with the vbs extension circled): "How much would the full piece cost?" thereisselfpreservation: "At a glance, the file name checks out. But!! do not open a .vbs file!!!
You should know that the infamous I Love You virus uses the same trick - Always make sure to turn on 'show file extensions' in your windows/browser settings.

I mean, couldn't I just let the Ai read the 90minutes of reading & summarize? Also, like hell I would do such a thing. I will not conflate answers with learning, product with experience. And how dare they sell us this crap and expect anyone to be ok with it...

The "contribute" page with the "correction" button circled in red.
As was said before, you can send a correction. I've added some screenshots on how to get there. First tab or click on the "contribute" button. Then there is a "correction" option. I assume you need a Moby games account though.
The idea generator in #MakeRoom picks a few random words from an array and displays them (like; "cozy green bedroom"). I can guarantee you this does not use AI 😅
