Most recently, I needed a smb 1.0 server to host an iso to an ipmi. I thought about it, rolled my eyes, bought a digital ocean server for $4/month and told Deepseek Flash Free via openrouter via opencode the root credentials and told it to ssh in there wget the iso and and make an smb 1.0 server and give the me credentials.

A couple of days before that, I told it to make a website, and then I kept telling it to do little changes and add crazy graphics. I just wanted to see what it could do. I made 30n3.com as a tech demo built on hugo hosted in cloudflare pages.

I was so impressed with this that I am fully transitioning many of my WordPress sites to this new gen workflow. I just redid my agency site (cyberbrand.net)to using similar method and the whole thing feels like I felt with geocities and tripod as a teenager. Its fun and I'm exploring and there don't seem to be any boundaries.

Before that I just used it for silly stuff like suing people and sending cease and desists.

What route dude I made an article to bring attention to the issue and the attention has been brought. Why do you want me to do things your way? I do things my way just fine. There's always someone to tell you that you should do this or that. Why should I do this or that? You do this and that if that's whats important to you. And if you want me to do this and that then convince me why I should.

IIRC there's like three developed countries in the world where one can buy a phone# without providing ID.

In the US one can buy a prepaid card wearing a mask and paying with cash.

Also I came across this service which purports to be anonymous: https://www.cape.co/ but has a ridiculous monthly fee.

I'm not a data analyst. Almost everything pertaining to data analysis of the log is perplexity labs.

I'm also not a journalist and the article I wrote didn't sound professional and was too long. So I had AI change it to have a professional tone and structure and then edited it.

I'm also not an artist and I had AI generate a picture of a bear reading a newspaper. Then I used krita to remove the background and make it transparent.

I also asked the AI to generate 10 headlines, it gave me this one:

How a monopoly ISP weaponizes support incompetence against technical customers

    Calls out systemic issue, appeals to HN's anti-monopoly sentiment
Then I changed it to:

How a monopoly ISP refuses to fix upstream infrastructure

Yes I leveraged expertise from three fields outside of my skillset to simplify a task, bounce back ideas, and conclude with a superior end result. It was demonstrably effective and it would have been stupid to spend 4x the effort to receive zero traction.

I had an old 15+ year old line when I moved in. Helped my neighbor cut a few hundred of his monthly by getting xfinity and they ran a brand new drop for him. Then just recently they "upgraded" my line. But I don't have any splitter or filter its just a connector with a ground that attaches my home cable to the drop cable.

Hello,

Not sure where to turn. You guys are pretty leet. Sorry in advance if this doesn't belong.

I'm being sent emails from cisco@appserviceinfo.com telling me to update my VPN client and linking to https://github.com/UpdaterCisco/Cisco_Anyconnect_SSLVPN/raw/...

It doesn't show up as anything on virustotal but this is certainly some sort of malware 0day (except its been around for a week).

I reported the https://github.com/UpdaterCisco to github as hosting malware and its still up some days later.

Can someone with a voice that is heard get this taken care of? Or tell what I can do?
