You know what? Let me amend that. There is one thing LLMs are good at: making spam. Lots and lots of spam. Almost by definition, it's hard to make good automated filters to detect it, so you basically need humans to sit there and read the slop.

They're good at wasting time and DoSing brains.

Apparently the entire UNIX tape was read successfully, what's going to need to happen next is to decode the signal from it, decipher the file formats, etc., I'll post updates as I get them

@0xabad1dea Sadly, this also results in devices shipping with a compliant USB-C port, but a power supply with USB-C connector and a warning to never use it with anything other than the device it shipped with (because it doesn't do any PD negotiation, just dumps 12V on the power pins).

@0xabad1dea Ouch, that's annoying. I assume your account got locked out, which usually resets after 10 minutes, so maybe try logging in again to see if it'll let you?

@0xabad1dea Since it's a work laptop, call your IT, they'll be able to provide you with BitLocker recovery key.
