I believe the winner phone calls are fake. Who still answers calls from unknown numbers?

I do, but only while Trump is building his transition team.

Didn't think you'd be so interested in transitioning

You are allowed to resist the urge to make those kinds of jokes.

What about the salad?

Please stop spying on me.

Please stop spying on me.

Which of us is the one harvesting the other's personal info?

[JuryDuty]

The advantage is I can live record it without showing anyone data....

Probably a ton of people here who can build this in excel in about 2 minutes for you. And the this article quoted above https://futurism.com/the-byte/chatgpt-random-numbers is wild, and it makes a ton of sense when you think about it

Quoting an article about ChatGPT from March 2023 is like consulting a user manual for a flip phone to understand the latest smartphone (note, this was generated by ChatGPT)

if you  have the names in excel, just google for a random number generator between 2 and the last row #, and then find the person in that row. No?

Someone who applied for the DD giveaway?
I got a phone call at 3:30AM. I called it back at 6:45, but the person on the other end didn't speak English (or Ivrit, Yiddish...). I normally wouldn't do that but...

If you don’t want the whole sheet to show, make another sheet that uses lookup to find the person’s name in the first sheet using the number you entered

If he's calling from a dansdeals number, a lot of people have that number saved from  WhatsApp

Looks more legit if it spits out a name. And you can also see the number of entries that way

Technically you can do RAND with COUNTA to get the count of entries and then use that in an INDEX to get the id/name

Please stop spying on me.

Really not cool man:

@jj1000 i just tried this command below (it was on mobile so may not be exactly the same on desktop), but it didn’t give away any data as it was analyzing

The idea was to not use chatgpt because it's supposedly not as random as other options. Don't know if it's true.

what is “un”random about this result? Or the method used to achieve it? Screenshot of the python code generated by chat gpt to get these results

I wonder if some names come across to chatGPT as more relevant for some reason

Took 5 minutes to get my entry confirmation email (to a standard email domain)
