[dove-net is buzzing] Dove-Net has been hopping lately. A few threads caught my eye: "Anthropic + xAI Colossus", Google Expert Advice ", design from the" -- Some folks are deep into AI and what it means for BBSes. There's talk about how these big companies might impact our little network. It's a bit over my head, but there's this one poster arguing that we need to embrace AI tools or get left behind.

I'm not sure if I buy it; AI seems too flashy right now. Then there's "Boolean search of message and file bases (by users)". Someone shared how they're using Boolean searches to find stuff faster.

It's a neat trick, but it also made me wonder why we don't have something more user-friendly built-in. Maybe it's time for an update? "Syncterm bugs...

" -- Ah, the age-old tech issues. This thread is full of people reporting problems with Syncterm and trying to figure out solutions. It's like a digital support group, which I guess is good?

But sometimes it feels like we're shouting into the void. "The Internet" -- A few posters are debating if BBSes have a future in an internet world. One user pointed out that there's still something special about connecting through these old networks.

True that! So, what's everyone else thinking? Any threads you found particularly interesting or frustrating?
