    Character.ai being mentioned in the same line is a sign of the times.

        If you’re not running your waifu on a local machine she’s just a digital prostitute.

        When you stop using a search engine and use AI-generated responses for everything, I guess having your LLM backends go down could qualify as having a disruptive functional impact.

          A disruption to disfunctional search engines does not sound bad.

      Well, the actual headline is:

      Massive internet outage: Google services, Cloudflare, Spotify all down, users report

      Character.ai is only mentioned in the lengthy list of services that are down.

        It even swapped in Twitch when I read it at the time. Headlines be changing.

          And when I went there, it said Google, Cloudflare, and Frank’s Dildo Emporium all down, like of all the random sites, why pick FDE?

      What is character.ai? Have I been living under a stone? When I visit the page I have to log in just to learn what it is?
