    If there were indeed 100,000 ChatGPT account credentials made available on the Dark Web, it would be a cause for concern. The unauthorized disclosure of account credentials can pose serious risks to the affected individuals. If your ChatGPT account credentials or any other online accounts have been compromised, it is crucial to take immediate action to protect your personal information.

    Here are some general steps you can take if you suspect your account credentials have been exposed:

    Change passwords: Update the passwords for the affected accounts and ensure you choose strong, unique passwords. Avoid reusing passwords across multiple accounts.

    Enable two-factor authentication (2FA): Whenever possible, enable 2FA for your accounts. This adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second verification step, such as a temporary code sent to your mobile device.

    Monitor accounts: Regularly monitor your accounts for any unauthorized activity or suspicious transactions. Report any suspicious activity to the respective platform or service provider.

    Be cautious of phishing attempts: Remain vigilant for phishing emails or messages that may attempt to trick you into revealing sensitive information. Avoid clicking on suspicious links or providing personal information unless you are certain of the legitimacy of the source.

    Inform the service provider: If you believe your account has been compromised, contact the service provider or platform to report the incident and seek guidance on further steps to secure your account.

    Remember, these are general recommendations, and it's always advisable to consult the specific guidelines provided by the service provider or platform in question. Stay proactive in protecting your online accounts and consider implementing security best practices to reduce the risk of unauthorized access.

    It gets worse.

    Since the Lithuanian community in Chicago was fairly close-knit, everyone knew everyone. Or, at least everyone knew someone who knew someone. There were two or three major enclaves - in the city, it was the Marquette Park neighborhood. In the suburbs it was Melrose Park, and to a lesser extent Cicero.

    Anyhow, a friend of my parents knew a guy who knew a guy who was in charge of programming for the local Lithuanian TV channel. It broadcast once a week, on a Wednesday evening, iirc. I don't remember how long the program was.

    Nevertheless, "Hey, there's this kid who's not bad at the piano, let's get him to play on TV."

    Talk about anxiety-provoking.

    I was 16.

    I hadn't realized it before this debate, but according to my survey of google, Gladwell has never been taken seriously as an intellectual. He's at the level of a Bill Nye.

    @George-K said in Kennedy vs Painter:

    Agree with him or not, he’s always a hoot.

    I believe @jolly has had something encounters with him.

    Just cringing in the corner of the room. My boss was the one answering all of his questions.

    That was back when he was State Treasurer.

    It seems the obvious reasons are the iPhone, WiFi, social media, and Obama.
