Anyone looked at the registered users online lately?
I see Google(Bot) and other Bots joining in.
What’s that all about?
SkyNet is watching and learning about Offsetz….

It's just their web crawler to create/update search index results. Same with the Bingbot.

They're actually the only OSGers I know IRL. Good dudes. Know a lot of cool restaurants around me.
If it wasn't for disappointment, I wouldn't have any appointments.

Bingbot tried to get me to buy Activision. It was kinda weird. Then GoogleBot showed me this YouTube video about some Q guy and it got even weirder

I contacted Google customer support today and think I chatted with SupportBot. Kept saying "I assure you, your data will be fully recovered", and kept congratulating himself before resolving my issue, like "I'm so glad I've been able to help you unlock your phone and restore your backup information"...I told him he hadn't helped me, because all he did was convince me to factory reset and lose all my shit when I already knew how to do that from a cursory GOOGLE search. RantBot process complete.
