Bigfoot is in Oregon, according to a number of reports from local residents in the area.

People living near the Indian reservation have reported that they have been woken up by strange sounds coming from the nearby forest. They have described the noise as like roaring and screeching, which they say sounds nothing like anything they've ever heard before from the local wildlife.

The Indian reservation is 178,000 acres in the Blue Mountains, and it is believed there are about 1,500 residents living in or next to the reservation area. The reports of the strange noises have come from a number of residents living near an old reservation community center just north of Wildhorse Resort and Casino.

According to reports, the noises first started last month, and sparked rumors among locals that it was a young Bigfoot separated from its mother. :huh:

Residents have described the noises as frightening, and even the grown men in the area are reportedly very apprehensive to go out when the sounds are heard, according to The Oregonian.

One resident told the publication that his dog refused to go out for a walk because it was so terrified of the noises.

However, there are as usual many skeptics to the rumors of the Bigfoot being around. Some in the local community believe the Bigfoot rumors are ridiculous and that the noises are more likely to be from a fox or coyote.

Bigfoot, also known as sasquatch, is the name given to an ape-like creature that some people believe inhabits forests, mainly in the Pacific Northwest region of North America. Bigfoot is usually described as a large, hairy, bipedal humanoid. The term sasquatch is an anglicized derivative of the Halkomelem word s?sq'ets.

Many scientists discount the existence of Bigfoot and consider it to be a combination of folklore, misidentification, and hoax rather than an actual living animal.

They have pointed to the lack of physical evidence, and the large numbers of creatures that would be necessary to maintain a breeding population.

^ I guess it depends on the noise. And this is a traditional sasquatch area.

And this is a 'new' noise in the area, apparently.

People are not accustomed to hearing it.

I have heard the recordings of the genuine 'Bigfoot'.

They are bizarre and unnerving.

Analysis of these recordings say that the sounds could not be made by a human, and don't fit in with known animals.

That does not mean Bigfoot, though. It could be a lost or unknown specie. Or maybe a exotic pet turned loose. It could be a lot of things.

^ True -- and the unknown species is what sasquatch is. ;)

Pics or nothing. Evidence is key.

There have been pics -- which are most always derided as 'fake'.

Not many people are going to brave the night, in unfamiliar country, to take a flash picture of a potentially dangerous creature.

You volunteering ... ?

Analyze the singing voice of T-Pain and you'll conclude that the sounds could not have been made by a human, and doesn't fit in with known animals...

Love it. My fake evidence is evidence of my claim.

Umm. Biologists, zoologists, botanists, David Attenborough, and drunken hunters do it all the time.

If bigfoot existed, Ted Nugent would have it hanging on his wall by now.

    • The concern of this article is not getting "hacked". No one is taking over my Google account and anyone that was is far away from self-hosting their passwords. It was about your big tech account of choice deciding to reduce features or getting out of the password manager business altogether. Bitwarden (or say Proton) is professional security company offering opensource solutions. They are going no where and one can easily download or export their passwords to another password manager service regardless. They again also offer self-hosted option. I doubt many people were sold on this solution based on the write up. The author had a number of warnings and caveats themselves. A local, self-managed solution is not for 99% of users.
    • I've owned nothing but ATi/AMD GPUs since 2002, after my last nVidia GPU in 2001 (3dfx before that), IIRC, and in all of that time I recall getting this error maybe once, certainly no more than twice. Despite all the scuttlebutt as to how poor AMD drivers are supposed to be that has certainly not been my experience at all... Usually it has been a configuration problem of some kind. Then again, since we're dealing with OS versions that are EOL, it could easily be an OS version discrepancy. It's still weird to think that Win11 has been officially out for more than five years!
    • AI will never be the jobs panacea some companies fantasize about today. Oracle is likely using it as an excuse, which we will see a lot of companies doing, I'm certain. They love their "plausible" excuses for their downturns. A couple of weeks ago my wife asked me to call Krogers about some discrepancy in a online grocery order, and it will be the last time either of us does that. I'll just do emails with humans from now on... The AI experience was horrible--the obviously recorded voice started asking a bunch of questions about our orders six months prior(!) and saying, "Is this in reference to your order on January 6, for $****?" You say "No!" and immediately the next question is "Is this in reference to your order on January 29th, for $****?" again, I answered "No!"--and it was incredible--on and on it went like that for fully 20 minutes until we finally got to the present, and only then was I put through to a human with authentic intelligence... I wondered why on Earth the idiot AI didn't start with the most recent orders and work back from there, as it was something anyone with a functioning brain would have done. And why didn't the AI have enough sense to ask me what the problem was in the first place? It didn't take too much deduction to understand that the goal of this "AI" was to cause the person on the phone to hang up in disgust, with no resolution of the problem. That begs another question: why pay for a tool-free problem line if the goal is to avoid solving your customer's problems?... Fortunately, Krogers does have real humans capable of reading an email and understanding it, and if she sees another situation in the future that's route she or I will take. The online grocery delivery service from Krogers has been great, over all, but their AI truly sucks.
    • AI is the justification that company administrators use to lay people off; it is not the end all, be all touted in the media (many of whom can't tell a microchip from a potato chip). Greed is main driving factor behind its adoption; the other is remaining relevant in the face of competition from other entities.
