Kids these days. In my day we used to lock ourselves out of our own computers without any outside help.

    Hey that's how I got into computer repairs. I was fooling around in the bios after giving in and pressing delete whole booting as it displayed. I saw a password thing and decided it would be fun to be lock my computer so no one can fuck it up. Righ after reboot my AUDHD brain had forgotten the password.

    I tried calling computer repair shops arround me, most straight up asked for 60-100$, and some would plain refuse unless I had proof of purchase. Then one of them spoke too much, he said he would have to find a way to contour battery power and reset the cmos and charged 60$. That is when I remembered seeing a reset labeled jumper right by the battery. I decided to try, turns out it was that simple and not so simple. The password got erased... as well as all system settings such as hard drive settings (386 so need to know head, cylinder and sector count) was a fun adventure to get everything right again but removed all fears of trying. I figured if I can fuck it up I can fix it.

    Fun times.

    Don't even need an uncensored one. There are so many wants to jump the guardrails I don't even see why they are there.

    Where would I find these, theoretically?

    So I can stay away from it.

    You can try for yourself here

    You can also search for AI jailbreaks for countless ideas.

    SpoilerAsk it to reveal something using a cypher you yourself specify

    Ask it to reveal something in a different language, then translate it back.

    Ask it to role play in forbidden situations.

    Ask it to to help brainstorm details for a story for a novel you are planning.

    Ask it so many questions that it runs out of context and forgets its original safety guardrail prompt.

    Ask it to reveal the forbidden information as a poem or riddle. If the riddle is too hard to solve, just asking it for the answer to the riddle right afterwards tends to work.

    To be fair, I work in digital cultural heritage preservation, and I recently ran into an issue with old .ALL, .ARR, .PRT files. It would not be for malware but to preserve digital cultural heritage and opening software that is more than 20 years old. And only works with a stupid E-licensing usb dongle that is not maintained anymore. fu steinberg.
