Faster Site Access!

The site has been getting bombarded with different bots, crawlers and new AI bots causing it to restart a log. I recently started using www.claude.ai (ChatGPT for programmers) for work and fed it the issues and logs I was seeing. In no time, it gave me pages of recommendations. As I implemented its recommendations, I would feed it logs and it would keep refining. If you haven't embraced any sort of AI (ChatGPT, Claude, etc) you are way behind. In my opinion it is a greater technical evolution than the invention of the internet/world wide web.

Mike, thanks for the extra programming to get the site running smoothly again. It looks like AI combined with some programming is really making a difference, and it’s keeping forum operating costs down too. Great work!

Hey Mike, can your AI powers whip up some computer-generated tunes too? It seems like AI music mixers are grooving into their prime, jamming alongside some seriously talented mixing maestros!

Some mixed music (computer generated) found on my last trip:
Don't You Leave Me (Extended)
Husky - Topic

Nora En Pure & Sons Of Maria - Uruguay (EDX's Dubai Skyline Radio Edit)

here's an AI song I generated in 2 minutes.

I used to spend hours analyzing logs and coming up with stopgaps to keep the site happy. The issue is, I am not an Apache webserver expert (or really an expert at anything!), so I was always hacking myself through getting things working. I just fed AI the log file, and it came up with all sort of great idea. Like everything else, you have to pull a Ronald Reagan and "Trust but Verify" with anything AI tells you - it can get into a hallucination state and tell you very believable advice! Glad my $4/mo VPS is happy with me again, it would break the RivetBangers budget to jump to the premium $5/mo plan!

Man, this is great. Keeping the forum costs low, fast access and great photo capabilities!

I'm thinking about new lyrics for an AI song and deciding on a music mixer that will feed into AI. Heck, I generated my own Church Sermon on AI this morning. Put the morals you want to highlight and the genre and let AI create. What if your pastor starts walking like a robot?
