As you all know, as soon as AI gets a single tick past human intelligence, it's going to take over the world and exterminate homo sapiens. At least, that's what a lot of people assume. Will that happen? Your guess is as good as Sam Altman's. Meanwhile, we have two confirmed victims of AI, both of which are household names in the IT community.

If you’ve ever relied on public pastebin services to share code snippets, logs, or sensitive configurations, you’ve probably worried about privacy and longevity. Public pastebins can delete content at any time, expose data to unwanted eyes, or fail to give you fine-grained control over who sees what. And what if they get hacked? Even if you're anonymous, logs and other data could possibly trace things back to you. And if you're stored anything sensitive there, they could be exposed. The good news is that you can easily set up your own self-hosted Pastebin. That's the LowEnd DIY way!
