That's pretty deceptive conduct on Photobucket's part. $5 recovery in small claims court maybe? :)

Heh, wouldn't it be funny if some of the EU gov's decided to sponsor ReactOS for another/future pathway away from Redmond. :)

What kind of projects/code do you have them work on? Asking because I could guess that approach would be ok for the types of front end work that doesn't require much security or other validation. But it sounds like it wouldn'

I've explicitly banned Opus from creating memories unprompted, as it would often save info that's incorrect and which would then be propagated to future sessions until caught. Ugh x 10.

Interesting. When I tried switching to it yesterday from Opus 4.8 ("/model" command) it didn't complain, but I didn't actually send anything to it when I saw the cost was like 2x Opus 4.8. ie switched back I'

Oh good point. Hadn't thought of the bursty nature of the load. Sounds like you need to share infra with an org of similar needs in a vastly different timezone. I guess that's what SaaS CI solutions are in a way. :)

More like "forced to accept" rather than "trust". This latest event just continues Microsoft's track record of being a security problem rather than having their shit together. :(
