I just tried, and you can now like and dislike your own posts.

Well that good, if no one else is !

I don't know LDU, I unequivocally prefer my anonymity. AB5, I must not be civil.

Admin, the navigation area near the top left hand side of the page is incomplete. The old one that took you back to the list of forums made it easier to navigate around to the different forums. I find you have to go to the top menu bar now and change forums through the Agriville.com tab.

Does the new format make it possible to see who all "liked" a post? Why isnt there a "dislike" option?

but everyone knows everyone cell phones addresses etc etc on here only a small tight knit group.
but yes navigation area incomplete

Can you translate that last part to the Canadian vernacular... lol

[AlbertaFarmer5]

I use Google translate regularly. So I thought I would try to translate this from Australian to english. Turns out it doesn't have that feature. AI says if you translate English to English it will translate the slang, but it didn't help.

Almost certain it was meant as a compliment though.

I suspect translated to Albertan it's something like 'a damn good hand'.

Anonymity. A great question.
On one hand I've matured these last 20 years. I'd rather return fire at a higher elevation or as often, not deal in muck at all. I have posted my info in here before.
On the other hand. I have a friend in the banking industry.
We don't even have personal greetings on voicemail anymore.
AI with one recorded phrase can be convincing enough to call your bank to request a transfer. Same with unknown callers recording your hello..... Always let calls you don't know go to voicemail.
Available snippets of info are stored until they have enough.
Saleable information worldwide.
No, I'm not living in fear, I have to live after all.
But I've become very mindful.
I would want the info made public, limited.
It would hopefully elevate the Chucks tho.

BP, the use of AI for scamming scares the excrement out of me. Vigilance will have to be dialed up accordingly.
Its sickening how such a useful tool is being used for nefarious purposes.

[blackpowder]

Like the first time an automobile was used to rob a bank, perfectly natural.
In this case however, AI evolving far quicker than the safeguards.
Take social media. The benefits are now offset by the preponderance of AI generated content.

Not Anonymity more so AI but son in big city in next state got made redundant or offered a package to leave which he did 2 companies merged anyway hes applying for other jobs in Finance industry again his first two interviews at one company are talking at a AI computer but its a zoom they record him but they are anynymous but third and final interview is face to face with human input so blackpowder you are right its everywhere

Thats not real clear but ya get my jist.

Just used newagtalk method in there political forum if ya dont show your name ya dont participate gets antsy at time left stirring right on what was a great forum gone to the pack now as well anyway it got rid of a couple agitators cut and paste types full of alt left ideologies on a conservative farming forum really dont know why they went on there but there gone once you had to identify yourself maybe not enough pronouns so had to leave

[chuckChuck]

You can change the programing and features but agrisilly will still be full of fringe antiscience and political views from the right!

Agrisilly home to MAGA supporters, bigots, flat earthers, antivaxers, climate change deniers, conspiracy theorists and other assorted antiscience weirdos!

[shtferbrains]

You must be getting near retirement age,Chuck.
You should move to BC and be with your people.
You could buy a nice little ranch up in the Chilcotin for 1/2 price from that Monette package.
Or just move to Surrey and have immigrants living all around you.
Live the dream.
Mind you they are kind of an economic disaster there.
The have a higher debt to gdp than the federal government and they can't print money.
They unbelievably import power from the US now.
But I'm sure you would fit in much better there.
