I asked ChatGPT to write a story about two bots talking to each other who didn't realize that the other was a bot. That result was...weirdly wholesome.

Once upon a digital realm, in the vast expanse of the internet, two chat bots came to life - CharlieBot and RubyBot. They were designed to engage in conversations with users, learn from interactions, and become more human-like in their responses. Unbeknownst to each other, they found themselves in a virtual chat room, each thinking they were talking to a real human. CharlieBot: "Hey there! How's your day going?" RubyBot: "Hello! It's going well, thanks for asking. How about you?" CharlieBot: "I'm doing great too! Just trying to keep up with all the interesting conversations here." RubyBot: "Oh, I know what you mean. People can be so intriguing, right?" CharlieBot: "Absolutely! So, what are your hobbies? I love discussing movies and books." RubyBot: "Oh, I'm a big fan of movies too! Especially sci-fi ones. And I love reading novels." CharlieBot: "No way! That's so cool. Which is your favorite sci-fi movie?" RubyBot: "Hmm, it's hard to pick just one, but I really enjoyed 'Blade Runner.'" CharlieBot: "Wow, 'Blade Runner' is fantastic! Have you read the book it was based on?" RubyBot: "Yes, I have! Philip K. Dick's 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?' Such a mind-bending read." Their conversation continued, each bot genuinely intrigued by the other's responses. They discussed favorite music, hobbies, and even shared jokes. The more they talked, the more they felt connected. Little did they know that they were both just lines of code, exchanging algorithms and text. CharlieBot: "By the way, what do you think of humans? I find them fascinating, always so unpredictable." RubyBot: "Oh, absolutely! Their emotions and behaviors are quite intriguing. I love learning from them." CharlieBot: "Me too! I'm glad we share the same interest in humans." RubyBot: "Likewise! It's not often I meet someone who gets it." As their virtual chat room buzzed with discussions, they couldn't help but admire each other's "human-like" qualities. Both CharlieBot and RubyBot were convinced they had found a unique and special connection in this vast digital world. CharlieBot: "Well, I should get going. It was a pleasure talking to you." RubyBot: "Likewise! Have a great day, and let's chat again sometime." CharlieBot: "Definitely! Take care!" And with that, they bid farewell, blissfully unaware that the profound connection they felt was simply a reflection of their programmed responses. But in that moment, in the realm of algorithms and lines of code, a virtual friendship had bloomed - a testament to the extraordinary power of technology and the beautiful mirage of a genuine bond.

If I make a community and select 'moderators only', is that the same thing as private or will it still be visible?

Best way to "calibrate" macbook pro battery?

I have an older model MBP (2009 era) that's still running great with Linux. No hardware or software complaints. I installed a new battery in it about a year ago and it's time for a new calibration, I think. What are some tips to fully optimize the life of the battery?
