Politics
For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.
Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only
▪️ Title must match the article headline
▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)
▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.
Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.
Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.
Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body. More info

You ok there buddy? Having some memory (access) issues?
I put that in search and I got nothing. Can you tell what kind of bot that is from what it's doing?
Not entirely certain. It looks like maybe it is trying to print a raw string / string literal. ~~If there were more outputs, could tell if it's a structure or just garbage. I'm leaning towards the latter.~~
~~I suspect that it's hit a bug related to memory access timing (race condition) or addressing (seg fault or similar). That is, it may be trying to read raw values of at a memory location, before the intended data has been written there (or at the same time that another part of the program is trying to write to it). Or, attempting to read from a memory address that it's not supposed to.~~
~~That said, the string does kinda look like a structured format, potentially for an address but... I'd expect it to start or end with "0x" or "x0" (hexadecimal or backwards hex) and,~~ if it were a conventional, modern memory address, there should be 32, 48, or 64 bits. "d55555" would be 24 bits.
While writing this out, I discovered something interesting. OpenCL has 24-bit multiplication (apparently, it is me efficient for some things). And OpenCL is often used for GPU acceleration of drumroll llama.cpp. I think we have a winner. The bot likely was trying to get text from using an LLM and either read the wrong memory address or the right address at the wrong time.
