Bah, I have to give in. Since the Cubs made it past the Braves I give them some credit. I think they have a chance at the big Series for only one reason-they're playing the Marlins. Had it been the Giants who would've beat Florida, it'd be a different story. I never thought I would be saying this, but good luck Cubbies.

bah im so tired of the marlins.. i can just see 1997 happening all over again.. they win the world series, no one cares, then they sell all their players and win 60 games the next year. the marlins fans are all bandwagon hoppers, the cubs have real fans, and are a better team than florida. this is only one game, hopefully they can still pull it out

It isn't a must win in a 7 game series till you are 2-0, then I really think it is, but with Prior pitching, and Wood, who Jack McKeon has already stated he is absolutely terrified of going against, the Cubs have a good chance of going 2-1, and if Clement, who either struggles or pitches like Prior/Wood, can be on fire for that game, they could go up 3-1. But all hypothetical, but hey, I was at last night's game outside on Waveland when Sosa hit the bomb in the bottom of the 9th, holy ****! I was drunk as hell from being at the bar and then I was outside Wrigley, it was pandemonium, it was like we'd won the World Series for a minute. Insane! I got my tickets, row 11 behind the Cubs dugout, couldn't make it there tonight, boss said I absolutely had to come in if I wanted off for any more games... so here I am. DAMMIT!

I'm trying to flip between the games. It's gonna be fun (Y)

NEVER EVER thought that I'd be rooting for an American League team - esp NYY and the Bosox - to win a game but here I am with fingers crossed for the Bosox. But, dammit, I want a Cubbies-Bosox world series!

GO CUBBIES!!!!!!!!!!!!

      I'd trust open source stuff on github more then closed source binaries from Microsoft.

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
