Okay, nothing hurt. Moving back up to the top of the list, we're gonna move back up to AA-4-HO. Before we do, let's look at a couple of things. First off, the biggest news in my mind right now in the world is the release of chat. GPT-5's broken AI-ac and cat's ear to GPT-5. The newest model, rollout from OpenAI, they're the brains behind the most modular AI platform in the world, chat, GPT. The new rollout, GPT-5, brings in a radical change of auto-tune for intelligence when it comes to bot-making, scripting, stuff like that, which doesn't affect a lot of people, but it does. It's behind the scenes, but there's a lot of cool stuff in front of the scenes that chat GPT has worn out with 5, including AI-agents. AI-agents is a way to have the AI program think and reason for you based on what you tell it. I've tested it two or three times yesterday. It's phenomenal. I built a red page by telling it what I wanted. It hosted the red page for me. I literally talked through it, and it built a red page. Phenomenal. That's really what we're going to be getting into, really each day, but if not next week for sure. But that's what came out yesterday. That's some big news. In other news, President Trump nominated Stephen Moran to the Fed Board. And NASA reports two large asteroids, even a 300-foot behemoth, will fly by Earth today at safe distances. No deep defeat. Well, if it was to fear, what good would it do? GPT-5 we kind of talked about, but we'll come back. Oh, you know what? Real quickly, let's just talk about it. I want to bring it up today. We don't have to talk about it. But with the GPT-5, what can it do for you? What can it do for me or anybody else using the M-Radio? I really like to think of use cases. You can use GPT-5 in the listen mode now to help you log. I plan on doing that. QSL summarizations. Net control copilot. Metacondida. I'm using it. I have that GPT board up on my tablet right here in front of me. It has my follow-up question of the day. It has what I want to talk about. It has my thoughts of how I'd like to keep Internet rolling all while I'm inside GPT. If you wanted to build a new agenda, GPT-5 can help you plan it and tell you exactly how to build it. It can even generate mobile or growing SVG files, which I think is phenomenal that a computer can do that in a browser. You can use it as a user manual. If you have a new M-Radio that you bought, buy the option to put one out there, K3991-alpha. You don't want to read through the entire user manual. GPT can take that user manual and put it into almost any medium that you can accept and that you can run from. Fascinating. Daryl is back. I just got the text. So, let's move to V01UKZ. Let him have a spell and then we're going back up to the top to Ron and D. Because they have been waiting for a while this morning, I do believe. V01UKZ, this is K3-5 IRQ. The mic is yours. The question of the day, I'm not sure really the files so much do you like coming back every day and once you get out of the cowabunga net, you are the cowabunga net manager. Lock your doors. Well, technically that would be Russell. It's his net. The cowabunga net is anyway. I'm the overall do drop in system manager. So, it's a little bit different. Russell kind of started this net and stuff but I kind of keep it going. You know, in his later years, I've kind of kept it, you know, making sure things are covered and, you know, keeping everything in order and stuff. But, yeah, it's the system in general that I try to keep going here. But, what draws me back? The people. The freaking people, man. We got good people out here. We got a good crew. You know, a lot of us have been around for years and years and years. Some of us have just been around for years and years. Some of us have been around for years. Others of us have been around for months or weeks. But, every piece to the puzzle makes this canvas unique. Let's just put it that way. Every piece to the puzzle makes this unique. And, it wouldn't be the same without every piece. The puzzle, the canvas would manipulate and make itself into the picture it's going to be based on the pieces we currently have available to us. And that's always changing. So, that's what keeps me coming back, man. But, it's just a good time out here every day. Speaking of which, I think my internet issue, knock on wood, has stabilized. The repeater didn't come disconnected ever since yesterday morning. The link has stayed up, consistent, ever since yesterday morning. So, it's like a full 24 hours now with no glitch. So, I can confidently assume that the issues with the network up here are resolved. I mean, it doesn't happen a whole big lot, but it's bound to happen eventually. You're in the ISP business, Josh, so I'm sure you've seen it all. As to what was going on up here, I haven't the slightest clue. I was starting to blame it on the lightning that we had like last week. Because my internet was choppy for almost a full week before it got rectified. So, I was just starting to think, you know, hardware failure had to be. Because there was no way it was like this all over my neighborhood for like the last week. Or maybe my neighbors were just as lazy as my parents and just didn't call tech support. They hate calling tech support. They really do. And I always offer. You know, I'll deal with the phone company. I'll deal with the issue. But they're like, yeah, well, maybe tomorrow we'll deal with it. If it's still doing it tomorrow. And then eventually it just, the problem rectified itself. So, like, oh, we didn't even have to call tech support. But we had shitty internet for a week. You know? Oh, what do you do, right? It's kind of a catch-22. You kind of, you know, your parents are going to do their own thing. And that's just the way it is. I just live closer to mine than a lot of people. And some might say, oh, you're in your 40s still living with your parents. No, not living with my parents at all. I have a separate civic address. It's 11A instead of 11. So, it's an apartment address. And there's no common doors inside my place leading to their place. I have to go out my door, walk around the house, and go in a different door to get to their place. So, no, I don't live with my parents. I rent the apartment that they have available in their house. Anyone could rent it. Family, not family. It just so happens that I'm family. So, it gives me the opportunity to help my parents when they need help with it, right? I mean, they're getting older. And, you know, things like taking out the trash, you know, tidying up, doing laundry. You know, getting stuff out of the car, groceries and things like that. They're not up for that anymore. So, I gladly can help out with that type of stuff, you know. And, certainly is what it is. But, my point is that they provide the internet with my rent. So, I try not to bitch about it when it gets glitchy, but I like to remind them that, hey, we can probably get this fixed quicker if we call tech support. And, because at that point, let me reset. At that point, I've already done ping tests, speed tests. I've been monitoring the modem, taking screenshots when it loses internet so I can have exact times when it happens. So, you know, they can go back through their logs when they get here and say, okay, well, at this time, this is what was happening. You know, some people would just be like, oh, well, sometime on Friday night, the internet was screwing up. Okay, what time? Well, I don't know. Well, I can't check my logs for a time if you don't know. So, I try to keep, you know, screenshots. That'll give me the times of a speed test when it was low or times when the internet completely cut out for a couple seconds. I got a screenshot showing me the time of that event. So, like, when the technicians come here, I'm very prepared. And half the time, they don't even know what I'm talking about. So, you know, the training level that these guys get is a lot lower than the training level that I got when it comes to technology and TCPIP networking. That was one of my specialties when I was in school was TCPIP networking. And, well, Novell, too, but you know where that went. Maybe Novell was a little before your time. Josh, I don't know if you're certified in CNA or not, but I am. It's not far good it does at this day and age, but it is what it is. Some of the things still apply to that Oracle software you guys use. Back over to you, Josh, for the O&U, Casey. V01, KJ5, IRQ. Lots of packs there. But yeah, I'm in agreement with you. I mean, you live in a totally different apartment. It'd be no different than your mom and dad lived in a big apartment building and you happened to be next door or a couple of doors down. It's your own place. They don't walk right into your place and you pay your own bills. On top of that, I would also say who cares what other people think? They're not paying your bills or anything. I really don't care what most people think of me. That's a good thing and a bad thing, by the way. Not caring what people think of me gives me the freedom to act as odd or as unique as I am. But it also limits opportunities, I would say, sometimes. At least I think so. But yeah, I get you totally, totally, totally. And yeah, the IP thing, man, it all depends on the delivery. I believe that you said you have fiber. I'm not sure. I mean, I'd like you to take out fiber if it hit a box or something, you know, like the B locks. I'd be more inclined to say that something else ripped apart if it's fiber. The glasses got shredded and they had to sit there and slice and that takes a while. But I'm also like you. I mean, if my internet's not backed enough, the first thing I do is I go to my on-the-scene Raspberry Pi that I have. I also know I have a script on there that I can activate that automatically starts logging my Peeings, logs my speeds, and it just keeps me in log. And it will test every five minutes until I stop it. And so that's what I do is I start that immediately, the script, I let it log into a text file, and then I, if the people who show up come around to use it, I email it to their supervisor. And usually my stuff gets fixed really quickly. And this isn't even through my company that I work for. I use a different company for internet because my company doesn't have fiber at my house just yet. However, they are digging holes this week across the street to run the fiber for that side of the street. So it's getting ever closer. Okay, okay. Well, with General's intuition, that brings us to the technical bottom of this list. We're going to move back up to the top of the list and go to RonPA4HO. And we're going to tack on to this question. My nets will usually have a theme, by the way. Today's theme is cow-bung-a-net. Headers usually have an overarching theme. And so if you do any XG reads and crushings or anything, it's going to be themed towards that. That way it's tied to all of the lights in a bowl. With that, the follow-up question is... Maybe if I can find it. There it is. If you had a magic button, and it could improve one part of your ham radio life, a magic button, that would improve...
