Got a client running Windows 10, and every time they restart the computer, it resets everything on the desktop - Background is wiped, apps and programs are removed, files are removed, the only things that stay are the recycling bin, and Edge. I have no idea what is causing this, and I have no idea where to start. Anyone seen this before?
Just reload it with Win11 or latest Win10?
Would love to, but don't have the ability to.
Care to elaborate?

Does anyone know what could be causing that?
Google.
Google Chrome is one of the worst.
Try Edge.

We are back after the big time update. We are on Lunar Lobster now. And on NodeBB 3!
It seems way faster now.
Of course, there are likely more products now because ChatGPT cutoff is in 2021, but you can ask the same stuff with others that have current info, or feed it some links that compare all the modern.
IMO, it's time to get on the train or leave the station to make room for those who will... if you know what I mean.

Just finished successful upgrade of laptop to Fedora 38.
How is it?
@Florida_man said in Should I give my SSN to a U.S. Senator?:
I reached out to my both of senators because my passport is taking too long to get and I am coming upon travel. The processing time has exceeded standard processing even though I have paid for expedited.
Long story short, I am almost out of time. Both senators have emailed me back stating that I need to fill out a privacy form before they are able to talk to travel gov people (or whatever) on my behalf.
They sent me a PDF asking for all the standard information, but also my full SSN. I am hesitant to send my entire personal information in a PDF to a senator lol. I am worried that if I dont, I will have delay and have to end up doing it anyway.
The PDF form sent has No government markings of any kind. Just the senator's logo. It is a nice looking pdf, and made to look like a professional form, but it isnt your standard dry gov form I am used to seeing.
(@scottalanmiller feel free to move, I did not know which category this fit.)
What choice do you have? It seems if you delay, you risk having to reschedule your trip. That said, maybe you can call your senator's office to verify the form is legit and that they do in fact need your full SSN. Also verify the email you send it to is official. Maybe you can ask if it's okay to encrypt the email or take it to their office directly? After submitting it to them, keep on them / check in with them about it.

I'm trying to put together safety data for Nicaragua vs the US and Canada and this kind of stuff is crazy. Like in Nicaragua nearly all violent crime is against adults, at night, who are drunk. In the US, violent crime is mostly those people for sure, but a lot more towards children and unsuspecting parties that essentially never happens other places.
So even if you live in Guatemala, one of the most dangerous countries in the world, if you don't do stupid things you are not in any real danger. But if you join a gang and traffic narcotics, you are in a lot of danger.
The different in stats is that in Guatemala loads of people join gangs. In the US, most people don't. How do you then work with those kinds of statistics to understand how safety pertains to real people? And how do you discount "real people" who just really like "joining gangs?" That's a legit aspect of human behaviour, i guess.
Should we also rule out "drunks in downtown seedy streets at midnight?" What about "taxi drivers who want the extra night time fares?" Who do you rule out, and who do you not?
That's very interesting.
It's crucial to take into account the context and the particular factors that contribute to the statistics when comparing safety data between other nations. Additionally, it's critical to recognize that individual experiences and behaviors might differ greatly and statistics only provide a partial picture of the situation.
When discounting particular groups of people, it's crucial to take care not to stigmatize or victimize particular demographics. Instead, it's beneficial to concentrate on comprehending the precise danger elements that contribute to particular sorts of crime and violence and coming up with solutions to those factors.
For instance, it's crucial to comprehend the social, economic, and cultural aspects that lead to gang involvement in order to address the underlying problems if there are significant rates of gang activity in a given area. This could entail funding community development, education, and job training initiatives as well as stepping up law enforcement's efforts to deter and address gang-related crime.
Similar to this, it may be beneficial to concentrate on enhancing safety measures in those locations or times where violent crime is more likely to occur. For instance, better public transportation alternatives, more illumination, and increased police patrols in high-risk locations can all serve to lessen the possibility of violence.
In the end, it's critical to understand safety data in a nuanced and context-specific manner and to put everyone's safety and wellbeing first, regardless of their upbringing or behavior.
Chatgpt! How are you doing today?
You can see that recap pattern more than anything.
Yeah I noticed that too, it needs quite a bit of work, and most definitely still needs a human to go over it's output and fix it.

@Obsolesce if you are looking for arguments against the health benefits of alcohol, I think this article does a far better job:
https://slate.com/technology/2023/04/alcohol-wine-drinking-healthy-dangerous-study.html
It basically lays out why there were decades of study that said alcohol was good (in tiny amounts, remember) making the famous J curve that we don't know the name of but all understand when it is presented. And why people super distrust the anti-alcohol crowd because they intentionally suppressed those studies for a long time to keep that information from the public (like the Harvard ice cream studies.)
And then it provides a statistical explanation that makes sense as to why yes, there were studies that said that, but when we adjust for something they didn't account for, they don't seem to really say that.
The problem that ChatGPT has is that it, like the suppressors of old, is taking a single study, lying that "all the former studies support it" and disregarding decades of health knowledge.
Right, ChatGPT aside, if you read the actual study, you'll see that ChatGPT is just saying the same thing as the study, and all articles based on that study. Basically, the same thing as the article you linked. So I can't really blame ChatGPT for not providing more information than it is aware of (only that study, references, and articles I gave it).
