Yeah, great, except the bot can literally just write whatever it wants to the config file ~/.openclaw/exec-approvals.json and give itself approval to execute bash commands.

There’s probably a hundred trivial ways to get around these permissions and approval requirements. I’ve played around with this bot and also opencode, and have witnessed opencode bypass permissions in real time by just coming up with a different way to do the thing it is wanting to do.

It’s not arbitrary code in this case, it’s well defined functions

No, you’re 100% wrong as the bot can just directly run arbitrary bash commands as well as write arbitrary code to a file and run the file. There’s probably a dozen different ways it can run arbitrary code and many more ways it can be exposed to malicious instructions from the internet.

Being a short haired dude I struggle to understand how hair, which is basically dead tissue would benefit from moisturizing

What about leather, could it benefit from applying a layer of oil? Or wood? Or rubber? Or cast iron? Living tissue is not the only thing physically affected by moisture levels.

Oil seals in moisture to prevent hair from drying out, which, obviously, will change it’s texture and elasticity. The skin on your head naturally produces grease to keep your hair moisturized, but when you wash with soap, it strips that grease out. If you shower regularly, you need to replace it.

I used the word “health” because it is commonly used to describe hair texture. You won’t be medically unhealthy if you don’t use conditioner, but your hair will probably be dry as shit and frizzy.

Soap and conditioner have opposite and incompatible roles. Soap strips away dirt and oils. Conditioner replaces the oils stripped away by soap that your hair needs, to maintain health.

You don’t really need separate shampoo and body wash, you could wash your hair with standard bar soap. You do need separate conditioner.

Shampoo+conditioner combined together can either clean or apply oils to the hair, but chemically, it cannot do both, despite marketing.

If you think the number of people that use ad blockers is not a fraction of a percent of internet users, you’re in a bubble.

Go outside, talk to people, friends, family, especially of different generations. Even people I know that I consider much more “tech savvy” than average have no clue about ad blockers or how to begin using them.

We live in a terrifying time

Well, the nanobots that you are describing do not exist, so they aren’t what is making the time terrifying

This is how I do it, yeah the first couple glasses were kinda weird but then once you’ve experienced it and know what to expect, it really isn’t bad at all.

Oh believe me, I know about psyllium husk. Best shit of my entire life. The kind you genuinely have to resist the prideful urge to take a picture of.

Cryptocurrency has transaction fees. They start out as the newly mined coins, paid from the pool of unmined coins. Once the finite number of coins have been mined and that pool is empty, the miners will begin charging fees for each transaction directly to the users making the transactions.

They genuinely don’t make sense as “currency”. Having a public, permanent ledger of all transactions is pretty bad. Buy groceries, pay your rent, and get paid in crypto? Now your landlord, employer, and grocer can see every transaction you’ve ever made, how much your account is worth, and how much you spend. Wonderful!

Sure, you could use a service to obfuscate your transactions, except oopsies, you’ve just reinvented centralized payment processors but worse! Wasn’t the whole purpose decentralization?? It doesn’t even solve the problem its designed to be a solution for.

Cryptocurrency sucks because it just doesn’t make any sense at a fundamental level. That’s not even getting into the economic problems, like deflationary currency, or technical problems, like the exponential cost of hosting a node or the fact that it can only be scaled up to handle at most a teeny tiny fraction of a percent of transactions that a service like Visa handles every day.

What is actually a good currency? Cash.

I think the feeling is the same, but the cause is a bit different. It is more similar to the dot-com bubble, where investors (for some reason?) are hyped to throw their money into AI. So if you can market yourself as AI, you can get big investments. Now that you have all that investor cash, you need to justify it somehow by using AI somewhere, anywhere.

Yeah I’m not saying its perfect and LLMs are non-deterministic so it could give you some crap. You’re not wrong and it’s good to be aware of that. How do you verify some random stranger from the internet wasn’t an asshole and gave you malicious config? 🤷 The best answer is probably just that OP should heed the warning on the website they linked, if they have no confidence or relevant skills:

THIS IS DELIBERATELY MALICIOUS SOFTWARE INTENDED TO CAUSE HARMFUL ACTIVITY. DO NOT DEPLOY IF YOU AREN’T FULLY COMFORTABLE WITH WHAT YOU ARE DOING.

I pasted the OP unmodified into a local LLM and it gave me this:

Paste this (replace  192.168.1.105 with your Acer’s local IP from Part 1.3): 

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name wowsocool.com www.wowsocool.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://192.168.1.105:8000/;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    }

along with correct instructions on finding the IP of the laptop, port forwarding, and examples on how to set up DDNS for several popular providers. The only thing I can see that is wrong is the port should be 8893 instead of 8000 and they may want to proxy a different path to Nepenthes than /

Nah, they suck for programming or anything involving imperative logic, but they are pretty decent with things that are declarative, like config. I know people want to hate or deny any usefulness of LLM, and it doesn’t help that corpos insist on cramming LLMs into usecases that aren’t applicable to LLMs at all, but this is actually one of the things they are good at.

Ironically, an LLM could generate your nginx config or the guide you’ve requested

I like celery. I add it when making stock (both ribs and leaves), chop up a few ribs and cook it in soup with carrots and onion, and I like to eat it raw as a snack.

Javascript will be an issue

Or how full an opaque bottle of water is when you pick it up, just by feeling how it sloshes inside the container. Our brains are doing some serious math

Never had one issue with it.

It’s still the same spice where I buy it. There is also the 2x spicy
