Both Google Gemini and Siri now have free access to ALL of your apps, no matter whether they use encryption. You were not informed of this, but it apparently came with a recent update. Toggle those motherfuckers off!
PSA: never discuss private affairs in your DMs, especially contraception and abortion. Social media moguls will absolutely sell you out to the government. There are already cases of people being charged based on evidence in their DMs.

This messaging app likely offers better privacy than Signal, as Signal was originally a CIA creation, and this app is more decentralized, and provides monetary incentivizes to network nodes for helping to uphold privacy and decentralization.

WhatsApp just leveled up with some seriously cool updates that might make Telegram and Discord sweat. 😏 Now you can see who’s active in group chats in real-time, because who doesn’t love a little digital accountability? iPhone users get extra perks—scan docs, zoom in on video calls, and finally set WhatsApp as the default messaging app (bye, iMessage?). Plus, Channels and calls just got smarter, faster, and way more personal.
Is this the messaging glow-up we’ve been waiting for? 👀💬

I think I'm most impresed at how Discord has stood steadfast in the realm of being a solid communication (either text and/or voice channels) method even amongst competitors that have tried to grow fast (sometimes too fast).

... no. Element, and I cannot stress this enough, sucks ass. And it is generally considered one of the best Matrix clients.
And I was using it with paid hosting (high level, not "VPS and I installed it", so it wasn't an issue of me setting it up wrong), not free on matrix.org or whatever. It regularly got into a jammed state where I could seem some messages only on one device and others only on another. Mostly my phone and my main desktop computer. And that was with a pure DM with one other person. I'd hate to see what happens with E2E encryption on in multiparty room.
Also many features are not there or limited or hard to use. You have to do a whole song and dance to setup "stickers" (I never bothered). If you run a whole discord server with fancy features like roles and stuff, you will find matrix rooms very limited in comparison.
Still, one could accept the limited features perhaps depending on use case... but not being able to read your messages properly is kind of a big issue. Or I guess disable E2E encryption if that feels ok to you. Might work ok then? Not like Discord has it, so you aren't loosing anything... (but that is supposed to be a big selling point of Matrix, so kinda wild that it works that poorly)
Matrix is just a bad protocol, and its issues have made it hard to created good clients (and servers... don't get me started on servers for matrix).
I mean, give it a try if you want, and maybe you will have better luck than I did. But I am a professional computer nerd, and it was not worth the headache to me.
I unfortunately don't have a good alternative. For one-on-one and small, simple groups, Signal might work for you. But nothing like Discord servers, or even Matrix rooms really, much more bare bones and not for large groups. Signal also has "stories" for some god-awful reason, so I guess if you like those, uh, yay? (you can totally disable them though at least)
You could also try XMPP (formerly Jabber), but I haven't used it practically speaking in a long time, so I don't know just how good or bad it really is now. Lots of work has been done on paper, but IDK how it translates to real user experience. The group stuff there is closer to IRC than to Discord. And the Windows desktop client situation is god-awful unless you love 90s aesthetic in your programs. Linux, Mac, iOS and Android have at least fairly modern-feeling clients...
Remember when I told ya'll last month to be ready to start looking for a Discord alternative?
Yeah things aren't looking good for discord.

5 Benefits and Key Features of Hotel Chatbot - Technology Org
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/5-benefits-and-key-features-of-hotel-chatbot-technology-org/
5 Benefits and Key Features of Hotel Chatbot - Technology Org
A hotel chatbot is an AI-powered bot that performs human conversations between hotels and their visitors or potential guests via its website, messaging apps, and social media. It works as an automated chat or discussion interface. A chatbot can be referred to by several names, including virtual assistants, digital assistants, conversational bots, and intelligent chatbots. Companies can use these chatbots to handle orders, provide product suggestions, assist customers, schedule meetings, and perform similar duties.
Here are some of the key benefits and features of using Hotel Chatbots.

24×7 response time
Customer service or contact center hours are often used to determine service availability. Chatbots, on the other hand, are always available to handle leads. It allows real-time communication between website visitors and hotel organizations, increasing customer trust. Furthermore, it makes it possible for hotels to react to guest requests anytime, ensuring ongoing service even during peak seasons and holidays.
Data Collection
An AI-powered chatbot can collect and analyze huge data about customer interactions, preferences, and behavior. Hotel management can use this information to make pricing choices, conduct promotional campaigns, and offer service upgrades. Furthermore, these chatbots can be great lead-generation tools, converting new leads into customers via follow-up processes or targeted marketing campaigns. For instance, Marriott’s Enhanced Internet service runs chatbots on its website servers to gather guest data.
Upsells Growth
Chatbots can boost the upselling potential by providing a personalized customer experience. Hotels can generate personalized offers for guests by providing hotel upgrades, spa treatments, on-site restaurants, and other amenities. They can also consider cross-selling opportunities, such as tailored recommendations for special discounts.
Cost Reductions
Chatbots have the potential to save your hotel up to 30% on these expenses. Hotels may save money by automating customer care tasks. Using chatbots for first-level customer service also saves time and provides better customer service and prompt responses to hotel guests. A virtual assistant can reduce human support costs by reducing the need for a large staff.
Fast service
Chatbots allow hotels to service several clients at once and provide them with information quickly rather than making them wait. Furthermore, it is important to reply promptly when visitors make complaints or urgent requests. Therefore, chatbots and human agents should work together to resolve these issues as soon as possible. Notably, several hotels such as Amtrak also offers free WiFi, making it easy for guests to access the internet and communicate with chatbots.
Better Visiting Experience
Visitors can learn about the booking process, pricing, and availability through an AI-powered assistant. It may also provide quick answers to frequently asked questions (FAQs) and detailed information about hotels and the surrounding community. AI chatbots can assist visitors throughout their journey by communicating at every stage.

welcome to a guide for 2025 rpc and a throwback to the importance of creating well rounded , developed characters .

a general lovenote and reminder on how to create characters people want to rp with , as discussed by g. please note , these are all my own thoughts and feelings , but i'm not ' married ' to any of this . i'm happy for open conversation , thoughts , feedback etc , but i don't tolerate aggressive messaging .
the first thing i think about when i think about my character , whether for a rp , a book , a short story , or a 1x1 partner is . . . where is my character ? not just physically , but emotionally . what got them there ? what have they already overcome ? what do they have LEFT to overcome ?
whenever i write or create a character , i think about them in the same way i think about any story making . stories ( typically and in some manner ) have beginnings , climaxes and ends . they also have problems that need to be solved ( or not solved ) . there's an arc we follow . we go up the mountain , then back down again .
a beginning is not necessarily ' born in 1982 , to two loving parents ' . it doesn't need to be a beginning of time , but can just be the beginning to your characters story . e.g ' despite having two loving parents , she had a deep focus on soccer . if not soccer , then maths . if not maths , something else . from a young age , she strove for perfection and being the best at something .'
this beginning sets the tone of your character . in a few sentence , we can already see what kind of person she is and know that she has some internal demons she's battling . we don't necessarily need her entire family tree unless it's critical to the story.
from there, we have our climax or problem statement , where things really begin to boil . again , it doesn't necessarily need to be ' everything came to a head when her mother died ' . we can make it more character focused by writing ' in 2012 , her mother died and she threw herself into trying to create the perfect replacement family . she got married to 4 different men in the space of 5 years , and has 5 children shared among them , as well as 2 step children . but she is unable to settle down . she feels restless . she finds it hard to be a mother because everything reminds her of her own mother , and the loss she's endured . ' now , we already know two things about our character :
1 . she wants to be perfect and the best , including at creating families
2 . she is terrified of her role in motherhood due to the loss of her own mother and feeling unmoored without her
this can then take us to the problem solving portion of the character . this is usually where i like to start my character in rps and 1x1 and novel worlds . we have these 2 issues and 2 core beliefs within the character . they're instrumental to her . how are we going to overcome it ? ARE we going to overcome it ?
we can begin to think of the butterfly effect in terms of our character . we can begin to think of the tree and its branches growing within her , extending out to other characters . we can see how she effects other people , including those close to her , not close to her , new friends , old friends , new love interests , past interests . we can create drama and connections because we have a strong foundation .
so . where does it end ? does it need to end happily ? simple answer is no . your character can end in the exact same place as they did at the beginning , but the point is that we've gone on the journey with the character . maybe we've seen her talk to her mother's grave . maybe we've seen her go to grief counselling . maybe she's gotten pregnant or married again . the problem statement doesn't stop her or stick her in one place . in fact , if anything , it can encourage her to keep making the same mistakes . on the coin flip , she can learn . she can grow . she can heal . she can mend the relationships with her kids , her past partners , rekindle love , or find new love . the whole point in the made-up 'ending' for a character , is that we have options . we haven't locked her down . we can continue to plot , connect , develop , etc , as we go along .
QUESTIONS AND THOUGHTS I CONSIDER WHEN CREATING A CHARACTER :
how has your character ended up where they are right in this moment? think about where you’re starting them from, and what that looks like realistically. not just physically : how did they get to this place ? but also mentally : what did they have to do to become the person they are ? was it good or bad ? everything you are and do and become as a human is made up of tiny almost inconsequential decisions or choices you made. you decided to study x. you broke up with y. your parent passed away so you had to come back to your childhood home. your illustrious career came crashing down and you need a place to cool off. you never left here, you’ve been here from the beginning, because you’re searching for something. what is it? what is the thing that has your character right where they are in this exact moment ?
what emotion do they feel the most? regret, anger, longing, nostalgia ? this helps drive your characters motives past and presently. it also helps you understand their goals. what they want to achieve and why. maybe they yearn for longing and friendship and connection because they never got it as a child, whether at home or at school. maybe they regret not keeping in touch with their childhood friends because now they are surrounded by people they can’t trust and work in a shitty environment where you have to climb over others to get on top. everyone has a goal. everyone has an emotion that drives it. what is your characters and why does it matter? how does it present?
when’s the last time they cried and why? everybody cries and everybody cries in very different ways. it says a lot about the emotional state of a character and their emotional health. are they in tune with their emotions and cry at appropriate times? do they compartmentalise it? do they only cry when angry? dig into it and think of the why why why. why does my character only cry at this one thing? why does my character only feel safe crying alone? why.
what is your characters biggest regret in life? did they get on a plane when they should have stayed? did they study a subject only because their parents wanted them to? did they not kiss the girl when they wanted to? let’s be honest. our lives are filled with “if only i’d done xyz” . if only . this also provides a great opportunity to MAKE these plots and plot with other people. now we can come up with exes or ex best friends or old flames or whatever whatever , because there’s a good chance your character regrets something that impacts someone else and they regret it BECAUSE of that impact .
ADDITIONAL THOUGHTS AND TIPS I'VE PICKED UP WHILE RPING
honestly the more “whys” you can answer for your character, the more in depth you’re getting. in order for other people to understand your character, you need to understand them yourself. you can’t expect people to write with your character if they don’t really have much of a stable personality and your plots don’t make much sense. remember: plotting should contribute to your character and their development. human relationships don’t just exist because we like them. they exist because they serve an unserved part within ourselves.
genuinely think of their hobbies. it’s all well and good to say “she’s a bookworm and loves puzzles” “he likes music” but like. what does that actually mean? WHY do they like certain things ? do they like reading books or writing? do they like fantasy and escapism because it reminds them of childhood? do they listen to only their dads favourite music because they miss him? do they make playlists for niche and specific moods only applicable to them? why are their hobbies important to them?
consider their connections, not just future but npc and current. how would 5 close friends describe them in one word? how would their ex describe them in one word? what is one thing that others could safely always rely on your character for (eg designated driver on nights out, always having some type of fidgeting device, knowing a phone app to help you meditate or streamline a process etc etc). we all exist in the worlds of our loved ones, past, present and future. we leave marks with them. we are known to them. so what is your character known and loved for?
pick your plot first, not your fc or your character. i know this sounds counterintuitive but when you have a plot for a character and a clear path for development - it helps everything else fall into place. the worst thing are characters that are plotless (specifically for group rping). i’m going to be honest here: your character has to have something to give other characters. whether it’s drama, information, hidden secrets, a connection… your character has to have something of substance. i’d actually prefer they’re a stereotype then they’re just aimless and personality-less. when you have a big overarching plot and path for your character, it will not only help you plot with others, but also help keep your character moving and not JUST reliant on others to pick up the slack
rping has always used the yes and…? rule. that extends to your characters. instead of yes and…? think of So… what? your character loves to bake. ok. so what? what does that mean for a thread, or another character? why do we care? maybe we’d care if your character bakes experimental stuff and loves to test it on other muses. maybe we’d care if your character used to be a professional baker but hasn’t baked lovingly in a while. maybe we’d care if your character is a baker but has lost their charm and schtick and can’t bake the way they used to. this stuff is important. don’t just stick arbitrary things onto your character and expect others to care, especially when you don’t care and have just put it on your character as a random quirk. that’s not how people and humans work. everything means everything.
your character doesn’t have to be likeable but they do have to be memorable. evil nasty girls, manipulative jerks… yeah that’s all ok! but also you kinda have to show, don’t tell. you can’t just SAY your character is the “head bitch in charge” and then she never actually talks or says anything or does anything. sorry, but in order for me to see your character, you actually have to write them or at the very least headcanon them. otherwise, they’re just a blob of musings in the ether.
in order to create a character , you have to write your character . i see this a lot in groups .. people love to create a character pinterest , graphics , aesthetics galore . its amazing ! but they don't actually write the character and it can close off a lot of opportunities to plot because people don't know who your character really is . i hate to say it , and its not true for everyone but : if you're relying on aesthetic , then you could be lacking in the actual creation and writing aspect . plus , people have come here to WRITE with YOU . not just see fan edits of your character . write . write badly . write starters , even if they scare you . write with people you don't know . write with yourself . write with your best friend . but you have to actually do the writing part .
